this. being non-orthodox for me, and many others, is a religious question. but even if this were only a sociological difference, the beginning of the Anusim article needs clarification. the article would not suffer (and would be improved) if this "sociological" difference is noted. i observe, but by the orthodox standards in the article's main section first paragraph, i am a meshumad. this is false and unkind. "Jewish Law categorize the status of a Jew according to his commitment to rabbinic tradition", but even chareidi recoginize reformed, non-observant jews as real, non-heretical jews. i do not doubt your honorable intentions, and i do not believe you mean to insult, but tell me how can i read the opening paragraph, and not logically conclude you classify me as a heretic? as a jew, i categorically disagree that anyone, let alone "Jewish Law categorize" my status as a Jew. i am still not convinced and still advocate changing that sentence to include the concept that it is only Orthodox jews and orthodox Jewish Law that categorizes the status of orthodox and formerly orthodox Jews. yours,--

halakhic code will accurately convey the "halakha" of that community. For example, for many S&P Jews, it would be more significant to use the "Despididos" melody appropriately than whether one waits 6, 3, or 1 hour between eating meat and milk. (1 hour being common among S&P Jews, and, decidedly Ashkenazic in origin.) Moreover, the S&P Halakha we are talking about is almost non-existant. No great codes have ever been produced within the S&P world. Halakhic questions are answered by the leaders of each individual community and have much to do with the education and background of each given Rabbi. Historically, the Halakha of S&P Communities could more easily be traced to Amsterdam, and the Ets Haim school. Today, I doubt whether we can even speak of a S&P Halakha let alone what the influences of that "Halakha" are. Shabbat Shalom. No worries, I wont disturb the Dor Daim article.

905:“mešumad” for one type of transgression – that is whoever is stuck to a transgression, making it consciously and knowingly, becoming accustomed , same way with lighter , for example, to dress with “ša‘atnez,” or trim the peá, making it appear as if this precept void for the whole world – this is a “mešumad” in relation to such thing . This is, if done with the intention to provoke. the “mešumad” for the whole Torá, this is that who turn to the laws of the gentiles, when these decree religious persecutions, uniting with them, saying: “ – What gain do I have in remaining united to the People of Israel, who are humiliated and persecuted? It is better for me to unite to those whose hand is powerful!” – this is the “mešumad” for the whole Torá. . For a sensible assessment on the Biblical and Talmudic sources regulating this position, see Foot Moore’s Judaism (Hendrickson, 1997), pp. 460 – 473. 465:

Hebrew had forgotten about pausal forms altogether and this was reflected in the liturgy; then, from the Renaissance on, there was an attempt to make prayer-book Hebrew conform with the rules of the Masoretes, which led to an inconsistently carried out reinstatement of pausal forms, more prevalent in some rites than in others. The various homiletic explanations of why we do or do not do this (such as that "ha-gefen" is really in the middle of a sentence, as it is concluded with "Amen", or that it is a quotation from the longer blessing "al ha-gefen ve-al-peri ha-gefen") are of course completely ridiculous. So I can only suppose that in New York there was once a cantor who decided to "correct" the line in question. I wonder what they do in Amsterdam?

kaddish. But, the hazan should recite kaddish along with them, to fulfill the obligation of the public. Thus, the public will have their obligation fulfilled by the kaddish of the hazan, and answer “Amen” to the kaddish of the hazan, and they will not notice this and thus hatred will not be born. Because, you will follow this custom all year round: the hazan will recite kaddish together with whoever says kaddish, even though they are ‘kosher’ – so that when such ineligibles happen to say kaddish this will not be noticeable in anything the hazan does, because it will be his custom to always say kaddish.

3751:. I have been revising some of the articles on O'Nolan's fiction in order to bring them up to proper WP standard and at the moment, all I want to do is get people to add more stuff and back up what they do add with proper citations. In return, for what it's worth I am a very modest amateur student of Judaica and if you want any help with any articles on the subject I will be happy to do what I can with the limited resources at my disposal. Bear in mind that I'm not Jewish and have only the merest beginner's comprehension of Hebrew. I do have a few books, though. Many thanks. 708:"The Syrian tradition was introduced to Jerusalem by Raphael Altaras, who came to that city from Aleppo in 1845 and founded a Baqashot circle at the Kehal Tsiyon synagogue. In this way the custom of Baqashot became part of the mainstream Jerusalem Sephardic tradition. Another important influence was Jacob Ades (1857-1925), who immigrated to Jerusalem in 1895 and introduced the tradition to the Persian and Bukharan communities. The main centre of the tradition today is the Ades synagogue in Naִhlaot, where the leading spirit was Shaul Aboud, a pupil of Moshe Ashear." 2885:". The word "isolated" was clearly intended to LOOK like a past participle even if there was no verb in active use for it to be the past participle of. It was not an adjective ending in "ed" for an entirely different reason, later mistaken for a suffix. (It may be that the original adjective was "isolăte", and that that spawned "isolated" as an imaginary past participle, and then "to isolate" some centuries later.)

to discuss at length with you why I think this is important but for starts, I think the article is sorely lacking in balance when it emphasizes doctrine and ritual over other elements of Judaism (e.g. Torah Study, that Jews have developed their own principles of logic and jurisprudence). I realize other articles cover this, but I think Torah study is so important to Judaism it deserves some substantive discussion in the main article. Anyway, I hope you will comment. Happy Shavuot,

1135:(wips). It is not just a "simple non-observance" as you put it, particularly when knowing that Shabbat is one of the two of the signs of the covenant (the other is circumcision). The observance of Shabbat not only upholds the giving of the Toráh at harSinai, but it also is witness to the cornerstone of Judaism, which is creation ex-nihilo. Breaking the Shabbat -- even if the Jew "believes" in the Shabbat -- leads to denying harSinai and creation ex-nihilo ever happened. 2124:. Frankly speaking I had removed a few lines about the subject of the ta'am 'elyon just a short while before. In the edit summary I explained my reason then. Which is simply that understanding the ta'am 'elyon in as far as it is necessary to understand the article is provided for by the explanation in the previous paragraph. This is not an article about ta'am 'elyon. Moreover I feel that your explanation raises more questions than it answers. 4055:

fact that Norman and French were, in fact, similar enough that which language some borrowings come from is not always immediately obvious from their form (such as is the case for a word like 'reyne'). However, I question your insistence at a cut off point of 1166. It is my understanding that Anglo-Norman (rather than Anglo-French) still had influence in England into the beginning of the 13th century (and certainly until after 1204).

435:"Spanish and Portuguese Jews admire Maimonides and identify with the Golden age of Jewish culture in Spain. However, they cannot be classified as "Rambamists" in the sense required, as their religious law is based squarely on the Bet Yosef of Joseph Caro. It could even be argued that they follow Caro more closely than any other group, as many other Sephardim regard Isaac Luria as having equal or even greater authority than Caro." 454:-- Sir Myles: Perhaps you can help me with a particular S&P pronunciation. One of the Piyutim read over Kippur is the Adir veNaor. In the S&P of New York, the first line is pronounced as follows - Adir veNaor/Bore Dok vaChAled. The Hebrew word Chaled is actually written with two segol's. One would expect it to be pronounced vaCheled. Most other Sephardic rites pronounce "cheled" not "chaled". Any insight? 419:

Martin Pereira (OBM) I noticed this pronunciation. I asked him and Bram Cardozo (OBM) about it and they tried to explain it with a grammatical rule which I didn't quite understand. I suspect that your intuition is more correct - especially considering that Ashkenazic Jews (Western European ones at least) do convert a Shewa into a Hataf Patach in many cases. I will ask around to see if I can confirm your hypothesis.

In addition, there is a rationalist tradition that illustrates how certain Hachamim perpetuated the teachings of their mentors or in some cases changed their philosophy from Aristotlean to neoplatonic or otherwise. None of this was explored in the entry. 1376: 915:

thirteen principles -- and the former is not included -- he's a Jew, and not a meshumad. If he believes in banalities that are not outright desecrations of the Toráh, we cannot consider them as minim, and much less as meshumadim. Because of this, like rabbi Iossef de Efraim Caro, as rabbi Menashé ben Israel, as rabbi Ia'aqob Sasportas, among others, are kesherim.

obligatory number have already been called up. And if the congregation sees that there are hatred and enmity and quarrels if he is not called up at the beginning on Shabbat and on Festivals, so, call him up for one of the obligatory ‘aliyyot, but make sure that when the next person is called up, the reader begins to read from the place that the previous one began

1146:. The determination of who is kasher or pasul revolves on the issue of Jewish behavior, otherwise also referred to as "observance." "Conversion to another religion" is only peripheral to the rabbinic concern, and only important if done out of conviction or out of coercion of some kind. The initial rabbinic concern is one of the behavior of the Jewish individual. 4139: 349:

desecrated publicly.... From the way the question is phrased it is clear that this person performs these acts in a publicly visible place and he realized that it would become known, so that even if ten were not present he is regarded as a Gentile. And it is also clear that he does so usually, on every Shabbat, and his actions are known to all.

While philologists are - at the back of their minds - vaguely aware that cultures evolve in much the same way as languages do, this is only slowly trickling into analysis.

Sephardim poskim, for example, not being overly concerned about the mathematisation of quantities for berakhot, these I believe are important general tendencies necessary for the understanding of the different development of law by Sephardic Sages.

I think there is an initial confusion with the notion of "Shemad" as perceived today.

I think there is a problem with semantics. Firstly, the category of "mumar" does not exists in Jewish Law . Maimonides does not use it, nor any responsa Sefaradi until the appearance of the Tosafot.

As for the question of "meshumad", as it relates to those who believe in the "Kabbalah" , this does not make them into meshumadim, since there is absolutely no problem in believing about reincarnations or not, having understanding about the superior worlds as sefirot. If the person believes in the
