Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Timeline of Jewish history - Post Biblical-history

Timeline of Jewish history - 200 BCE to 700 CE. 200 BCE–100 CE Throughout this era the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) is gradually canonized. Jewish religious works that were written after the time of Ezra were not canonized, although many became popular among many groups of Jys. Those works that made it into the Greek translation of the Bible (the Septuagint) became known as the deuterocanonical books. 30–100 CE Christianity emerges as a movement, and then splits from Judaism. 66–70 CE The Great Jewish Revolt en ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - Was Nachman actually a Sabbatean?

Some academic scholars of Hasidic Judaism hold that some of the charges made against Nachman were true. He is considered to have been influenced by some of the teachings of Sabbatai Zevi and of Jacob Frank, but he was not actually a Sabbatian or Frankist. Nachman's thinking on tikkun olam, the Kabbalistic healing of the universe, especially is said to be influenced by the Sabbatians. However, it should be kept in mind that the Sabbatians based their teachings on the Zohar and Lurianic kabbalah, both of which are consider ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - Did he believe he was the Messiah?

Nachman of Breslov - View within Breslov. This is a difficult question to answer. He definitely believed in the concept of the Tzaddik Ha-Dor ("Tzaddik of the Generation"), which, in Hasidic thought, is the idea that in every generation, there is a special Tzaddik born who could potentially become the Jewish Messiah, if conditions were right in the world. Otherwise, the Zaddik Ha-Dor lives and dies the same as any other holy man. There are many indications that Rebbe Nachman thought he was the Za ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - Controversy over his beliefs

He moved to Medvedevka, Ukraine and began preaching there, and in 1800 he moved to Zlatopol (near Shpola), Kiev. Unfortunately, a serious dispute immediately developed between him and Rabbi Aryeh Leib of Shpola, known as the Shpola Zayda (1725–1812) ("Shpola grandfather/sage"). Although the Shpola Zayda had supported him in his early years, after he moved to Zlatipol, the Zayda began to oppose him. (Kramer, p.691) The Shpola Zayda saw his teachings as deviating from classical Judaism and from the teachings of the Baal ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - His following

Rebbe Nachman developed a following during his lifetime that has continued in the two centuries since his death. His followers today are known as "Breslovers", and the movement itself is called Breslov. The name Breslov is preferred over Bratzlav because it is a play on the Hebrew words bris lev, meaning "circumcision (or covenant) of the heart." (It is also sometimes spelled Breslev or Breslav.) To this day, Breslovers view Rebbe Nachman as their spiritual leader. With the collapse of the Soviet Uni ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - Works published after his death

Nachman's doctrines were published and disseminated in books and pamphlets mainly after his death, by his closest disciple, Reb Noson. Reb Noson built a synagogue in Uman, in honor of his teacher, and composed a number of prayers to be recited at Nachman's grave by his followers. Many Breslovers flock there annually even to this day during the Rosh Hashanah kibbutz. Reb Noson arranged and published Rebbe Nachman's works as follows: Likkutei Moharan (vol. i., Ostrog, 1808; vol. ii., Moghilef, 1811; vol. iii., Ostrog ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Nachman of Breslov - Biography

Nachman was born in the town of Mezhibuzh on the first day of the Hebrew month of Nissan, 1772. On the side of his mother, Feiga, he was a great-grandson of the Baal Shem Tov, the founder of Hasidic Judaism. On the side of his father, Simchah, he was the grandson of Nachman of Horodenka (Gorodenka), one of the Baal Shem Tov's disciples. Nachman told his disciples that as a small child, he eschewed the pleasures of this world and set his sights on spirituality. From the age of six he would go out at night to pray at the grave of the Ba ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Schisms among the Jews - Break-offs: Samaritans and Christians

One small sect of Samaritans is still extant; however, their religion is not the same as rabbinic Judaism. The Samaritan faith and that of other Jews diverged over a millennium ago; they commonly refer to themselves as Samaritan Israelites as opposed to Jewish Israelites. This is because they believe they are of the northern Israelite tribes. Of course, the most famous schism in Jewish history was the split between the followers of Jesus (who were known as Notzrim or Nazarenes) with the claim by his disciples that ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Crypto-Judaism - Central South America and Caribbean

As in the American Southwest, in the department of Antioquia, Colombia, many families also hold traditions, handed down memories and oral accounts of Jewish descent. In this population, Y chromosome genetic analysis has shown an origin of founders predominantly from "southern Spain but also suggest that a fraction came from northern Iberia and that some possibly had a Sephardic origin". [3] In addition to these communities, other now Catholic-professing communities descendants of Crypto-Jews are also said to exist in Cuba, Puerto Rico ...

Anti-Semitism within Islam is discussed in the article on Islam and anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism in the Arab World is discussed in the article on Arabs and anti-Semitism The Qur'an, Islam's holy book, accuses the Jews of corrupting the Hebrew Bible. Muslims refer to Jews and Christians as a "People of the book"; Islamic law demands that when under Muslim rule they should be treated as dhimmis - from the Arab term ahl adh-dhimma.

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Anti-Semitism - Etymology and usage

The word antisemitic (antisemitisch in German) was probably first used in 1860 by the Jewish scholar Moritz Steinschneider in the phrase "antisemitic prejudices" (German: "antisemitische Vorurteile"). Steinschneider used this phrase to characterize Ernest Renan's ideas about how "Semitic races" were inferior to "Aryan races." These pseudo-scientific theories had become quite widespread in Europe in the second half of the 19th century, ...

According to the 2005 U.S. State Department Report on Global Anti-Semitism, anti-Semitism in Europe has increased significantly in recent years. Beginning in 2000, verbal attacks directed against Jews increased while incidents of vandalism (e.g. graffiti, fire bombings of Jewish schools, desecration of synagogues and cemeteries) surged. Physical assaults including beatings, stabbings and other violence against Jews in Europe increased markedl ...

Jacob Frank: Encyclopedia II - Louis Brandeis - Zionist leader

Brandeis also became the most prominent American Zionist. Zionism was the movement to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Not raised religious, Brandeis became involved in Zionism through a 1912 conversation with Jacob de Haas, editor of a Boston Jewish weekly and a follower of Theodore Herzl. Brandeis became active in the Federation of American Zionists as a result. With the outbreak of World War I, the Zionist movement's headquarters in Berlin became ineffectual, and American Jewry had to assume larger responsibility for the Zionist ...

In the 1908 case Muller v. Oregon, Brandeis, acting as a litigator, collected empirical data from hundreds of sources. In what became known as the "Brandeis Brief", the report provided social authorities with information on the issue of the impact of long working hours on women. This was the first instance in the United States that social science had been used in law and changed the direction of the Supreme Court and of U.S. law. The Brandeis Brief bec ...
