Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Abraham Isaac Kook - Biography
Abraham Isaac Kook was born in Griva, Latvia (a suburb of Daugavpils, then Imperial Russia) in 1865. His father was a student of the Volozhin yeshiva, the heart of mitnagdut, whereas his maternal grandfather was a member of the Hassidic movement.

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Abraham Isaac Kook - Legacy

Abraham Isaac Kook - Relationship with Religious Zionism. Ironically, while Rav Kook has been exalted as one of the most important thinkers in Religious Zionism, there is substantial evidence that he never saw himself or his ideas in these terms. Indeed, there are several prominent quotes in which Kook is quite critical of the Religious Zionists (Mizrahi), whom he saw as naive and perhaps hypocritical in attempting to synthesize traditional Judaism with a modern and larg ...

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Yitzchok Hutner - Early years

Having obtained a deep grounding in Talmud, Hutner was sent to join an extension of the Slabodka yeshiva in Hebron. He studied there until 1929, narrowly escaping the Hebron Massacre of 1929 because he was away for the weekend. It was during his stay in Palestine that he became a disciple of Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook, the first chief rabbi of Palestine. The philosophical and mystical mind-set of both men, made them kindred spirits. Like Rabbi Kook, the young Rabbi Hutner eventually developed a warm welcoming posture towards non-religious Jews ...

Ashkenazi Jews - From Roman Empire to Dark Ages.

In 1940, he established a post-high school yeshiva, Bet Midrash, with hundreds of students. He viewed secular studies as essential in learning a profession for people to support themselves by eventually going to college and becoming professionals.

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Jaffa - History

Jaffa - Name sources. Jaffa (or Yaffo) is one of the most ancient port cities in the world. Some claim that Jaffa was named after Japheth, one of the three sons of Noah, who built it after the Great Flood. A Hebrew etymology indicates that the city is called Jaffa because of its beauty (yofi in Hebrew). The Hellenist tradition links the name to "Iopeia", which is Cassiopeia, the mother of Andromeda. However the Hellenist accounting for the name dates from hundreds of years after the original naming. < ...

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Modern Orthodox Judaism - Philosophy

Modern Orthodoxy comprises a fairly broad spectrum of movements each drawing on several distinct, though related, philosophies, which in some combination provide the basis for all variations of the movement today; these are discussed in detail below. In general, Modern Orthodoxy holds that Jewish law is normative and obligatory, while simultaneously attaching a positive, inherent value to interaction with the modern world. In this view, Orthodox Judaism can “be enriched” by its intersection with modernity; further, “modern society crea ...

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Kashrut - Reasons for the Biblical dietary laws

There continues to be a debate on the purposes and meaning of the laws regarding Kashrut. In Jewish philosophy it is recognized that many of the 613 mitzvot cannot be explained rationally. They are categorized as chukim, comprising such laws as the Red Heifer (Numbers 19). There are three basic points of view regarding these laws: One view holds that these laws do have a reason, but it is not understood because the ultimate explanation for mitzvot is beyond the human intellect. A second view holds t ...

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Baal teshuva - Orthodox outreach organizations

Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, leader of the Chabad Lubavitch branch of Hasidic Judaism was responsible for turning Chabad's strength and activities towards outreach. He trained a large number of rabbinic emissaries who carried Chabad's understanding of Judaism across the world. Rabbis and their families were sent to teach college students, to build day schools, and to create youth camps. Most of these were geared towards their secular or less religious brethren. In the late 1960's the Chabad outreach model was, if not replicated, the ins ...

Abraham Isaac Kook: Encyclopedia II - Apostasy - In purported cults and new religious movements NRMs

Some scholars of new religious movements define as apostates specifically those individuals that leave new religious movements and become public opponents against their former faith to distinguish them from other former members who do not speak against their former faith, while others contest such a distinction. Former members of NRMs often see the use of "apostate" as an attempt to discredit them and their statements. Some scholars use the term post-cult trauma to describe the emotional and social problems that some members of cults ...
