ARTICLES RELATED TO Jewish |  |  |  | Jewish: Encyclopedia II - Jewish humor - The history of Jewish humorJewish humor is rooted in at least two traditions. The first is the intellectual and legal methods of the Talmud, which uses elaborate legal arguments and situations so absurd as to be humorous in order to tease out the meaning of religious law. [1]. The second is an egalitarian tradition among the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe in which the powerful were often mocked subtly, rather than attacked overtly -- as Saul Bellow once said that "oppressed people tend to be witty." Jesters known as badchens used to poke fun at prominent members ...

 |  |  | Jewish: Encyclopedia II - Jewish humor - Types of Jewish humor
Jewish humor - Religious humor.
The lives of the early hasidim, while not funny in and of themselves, are rich in humorous incidents. The dealings between rabbis, tzaddikim, and peasants form a rich tapestry of lore.
Some jokes make fun of the "Rebbe miracle stories" and involve different hassidim bragging about their teachers' miraculous abilities:
Three hasidim are bragging about their Rebbes: "My rebbe is very powerful. He was walking once, and there was a lake on his path. He waved ...

 |  |  | Jewish: Encyclopedia II - Jewish philosophy - Early Jewish philosophyEarly Jewish philosophy was heavily influenced by the philosophy of Plato, Aristotle and Islamic philosophy. Many early medieval Jewish philosophers (from the 8th century to end of the 9th century) were especially influenced by the Islamic Mutazilite philosophers; they denied all limiting attributes of God and were champions of God's unity and justice.
Over time Aristotle came to be thought of as the philosopher par excellence among Jewish thinkers. This tendency was no less marked in the Islamic, the Ch ...

 |  |  | Jewish: Encyclopedia II - Jewish philosophy - Modern Jewish philosophyOne of the major trends in modern Jewish philosophy was the attempt to develop a theory of Judaism through existentialism. One of the primary players in this field was Franz Rosenzweig. While researching his doctoral dissertation on the 19th-century German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Rosenzweig reacted against Hegel's idealism and favored an existential approach. Rosenzweig, for a time, considered conversion to Christianity, but in 1913, he turned to Jewish philosophy. He became a philosopher and student of Hermann Cohen. Roze ...

 |  |  | Jewish: Encyclopedia II - Jewish bereavement - BurialThe Torah requires burial, even for executed criminals (Deut. 21:23).
Jews are buried in caskets that aren't hermetically sealed. Man was created from dust, and when he dies his body is supposed to return to the dust (Gen. 3:19).
Jacob and Joseph were embalmed, but that was before the Torah was given.
Unclaimed dead require respectful burial (see Burial in Jew. Encyc. iii. 432b: "met miẓwah").
Jewish bereavement - Jewish view of cremation.
Halakha (Jewish law), forbids cremation and holds that the soul of a cremated person cannot find its final re ...
