In practice, however, those who follow the laws of Kashrut do not automatically regard all restaurants or prepared or canned food which claim to be vegetarian as Kosher, due to the likeliho ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Kashrut - Kashrut and animal welfare The practice of kosher slaughter emphasizes the sharpness of the knife and the accuracy and precision of the skill of the shochet, in order to slit the jugular of the animal with an absolute minimum of pain and suffering. In general, over the years authorities have ruled that any unnecessary suffering by the animal can render otherwise kosher meat traife. One of the largest animal rights groups, PETA has stated that Kosher slaughter "is less cruel than other slaughter methods in the U.S." Nevertheless, the method of slaughter used in ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - National Religious Party - The Ideology of the Mafdal
National Religious Party - Main principles.
Mafdal is a Zionist party and states that Israel is a "Jewish democratic state". Mafdal's main goal is to contribute as much as it can to the state of Israel and influence its character to be more Jewish, as well as fighting for the protection of Israel and maintaining Israel's security.
The core belief "the Land of Israel for the People of Israel according to the Torah of Israel" commits the N.R.P. to doing everything possible to further the security an ...

Jewish views of religious pluralism - General classical views on other religions.
Jews believe that God chose the Jewish people to be in a unique covenant with God, described by the Torah itself, with a specific mission — to be a light unto the nations, and to exemplify the covenant with God as described in the Torah. This view, however, did not preclude a belief that God has a relationship with other peoples — rather, Judaism held that God had entered into a covenant wi ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Understanding of the Bible Jews and Christians seek authority from many of the same basic books, but they conceive of these books in significantly different ways.
The Hebrew Bible is comprised of three parts:
Torah - the five books of Moses
Nevi'im - the writings of the Prophets, and
Ketuvim - other writings canonised over time, such as the Books of Esther, Jonah, Ruth or Job.
Collectively, these are known as the Tanakh, a Hebrew acronym for the first letters of each. Rabbinical Judaism traditionally believes that th ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Evangelism Judaism is not an evangelistic religion. Orthodox Judaism in fact deliberately makes it very difficult to convert and become a Jew, and requires a significant and full-time effort in living, study, righteousness, and conduct over several years. The final decision is by no means a foregone conclusion. A person cannot become Jewish by marrying a Jew, or by joining a synagogue, nor by any degree of involvement in the community or religion, but only by explicitly undertaking (under supervision) a formal and intense work over years aimed towards that goal. Some less strict versions of Judaism have made this p ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Raison d'être of the religion Each religion has a mythos, that is, an internal description of its raison d'être, its reason for being.
Christianity's raison d'être is to provide all human beings with the only valid path to salvation (John 14:26). Christians believe people are by nature sinful. Christians believe that Jesus was both the Son of God and God the Son, God made incarnate; that Jesus' death by crucifixion was a sacrifice to atone for all humanity's s ...

Both religions reject the view that God is entirely immanent, and within the world as a physical presence, (although Christians believe in the incarnation of God). Both religions reject the view that God is entirely transcendent, and thus separate from the world, as the pre-Christian Greek Unknown God, (although this can be argued in some Judaic thought). Both religions re ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - History of Responsa - Geonim During the Geonic period (650-1250 CE), the Babylonian schools were the chief centers of Jewish learning; the Geonim, the heads of these schools, were recognized as the highest authorities in Jewish law. Despite the difficulties which hampered the irregular communications of the period, Jews who lived even in most distant countries sent their inquiries concerning religion and law to these officials in Babylonia. In the latter centuries of the geonic period, from the middle of the tenth to the middle of the eleventh, their supremacy suffered, ...

There is a great deal of overlap between the ethical systems of these two faiths. Nonetheless, there are some highly significant doctrinal differences.
Judaism has a great many teachings about peace and compromise, and its teachings make physical violence the last possible option. Nonetheless, the Talmud teaches that "If someone comes with the intention to murder you, then one is obligated to kill in self-defense [rather than be kill ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Judgement Both Christianity and Judaism believe in some form of judgement.
The Christian view is very well defined - every human is a sinner, and nothing but being saved by God's grace (and not through any merit of ones own actions) can change the damnatory sentence to salvation. There is a judgement after death, and Christ will return to judge the living and dead. Those positively judged will be saved and live in God's presence in heaven, those who are negatively judged will be ca ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism and Christianity - Capital punishment Although the Jewish bible has many references to capital punishment, in fact very early on, the Jewish sages and rabbis used their authority, and the demands for justice emphasized in the bible, to make it all but impossible for a Jewish court to impose a death sentence. Even when such a sentence might have been imposed, the "cities of refuge" and other sanctuaries, were at hand for those unintentionally guilty of capital offences.
In this manner, the Talmud seriously limits the use of the death penalty to only be applicable to those ...

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism - Critical historical view of the development of Judaism Although monotheism is fundamental to Rabbinic Judaism, many critical Bible scholars claim that certain verses in the Torah imply that the early Israelites accepted the existence of other gods, while viewing their God as the sole Creator, whose worship is obligated (a rather henotheistic point of view). According to them, it was only by the Hellenic period that most Jews came to believe that their God was the only God (and thus, the God of everyone), and that the record of His revelation (the Torah) contained within it universal truths.

| | | | | 613 mitzvot: Encyclopedia II - Judaism - Religious doctrine and Principles of Faith While Judaism has always affirmed a number of Jewish principles of faith, no creed, dogma, set of orthodox beliefs, or fully-binding "catechism," is recognized, an approach to religious doctrine that dates back at least two thousand years and that makes generalizations about Jewish theology somewhat difficult. While individual rabbis, congregations, or movements have at times agreed upon a firm dogma, generally other rabbis and groups have disagreed, and because there is explicitly no central religious authority, no specific formulation of J ...
