| | Jewish philosophy : Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy Online |
 | | Jewish philosophy has over the course of its history been the source of a number of different types of study based on the philosophically relevant ideas of the Hebrew Bible, Rabbinic Law (Halakhah), Rabbinic theology and Rabbinic homiletics, exegesis and hermeneutics (midrash) (see Bible, Hebrew ; Halakhah ; Theology, Rabbinic ; Midrash). | | | More modern movements include the Jewish pietist movement founded by Israel Baal Shem Tov and known as Hasidism, the Jewish Enlightenment movement known as the Haskalah, and Zionism, the movement that led to the establishment of the modern State of Israel (see Hasidism ; Enlightenment, Jewish ; Zionism). | | | Ahad Ha’Am, the pen name of Asher Ginzberg (1856–1927), was an essayist who argued that the creation of a ‘spiritual centre’ of Jewish culture in Palestine would provide the sustenance needed to preserve the diaspora Jewry from the threat of assimilation. |

| | Judaism 101: Jewish Liturgy |
| | This prayer is the cornerstone of every Jewish service. | | | See also: Prayers and Blessings ; Common Prayers and Blessings. | | | The next major development in Jewish prayer occurred during the Babylonian Exile, 6th century B.C.E. People were not able to sacrifice in the Temple at that time, so they used prayer as a substitute for sacrifice. |

| | Although all Jewish sources and interpretations of Kol Nidrei agree that the formula covers only vows between the individual and God, many anti-Semites have taken Kol Nidrei as evidence that a Jew's oath is worthless. | | | In Jewish tradition, the nullification of vows can only be performed a religious court, which always consists of at least three judges and is convened only on weekdays. | | | The worshipers proclaim that all personal vows and oaths made between themselves and God during the year that not have not been fulfilled should be considered null and void. |

| | Liturgy and Attitudes to the Christian or Jewish "Other" |
| | The fact that the Gospels and other parts of the New Testament recorded many debates and critiques that were interpreted as signs of animosity towards Jews and Jewish practices led Gentile Christian readers from times long past to sense total alienation between Jesus with his disciples and Jewish leaders/teachers with their followers. | | | Jewish theology about the religious other develops from the biblical period, when the "other" was the pagan idolater. | | | While this "rule" is not followed slavishly, it has always been regarded as the ideal, and consequently most phraseology of the statutory (and even the non-statutory) liturgy can be traced back to the scriptures or rabbinic liturgy. |

| | Jewish liturgy is about taking specific actions in order to encounter God, not only during prayer, but at any time when Jews recite blessings or light Hanukkah candles or sit around the Passover table. | | | The primary text of Jewish liturgy is the Siddur, or Jewish prayer book, with the texts for the morning, afternoon, and evening services on weekdays and holidays. | | | Because prayer services on the high holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are so much more involved than during the rest of the year, Jews use a special book called a Machzor to guide them through the services. |

| | The desire to be sincere in prayer is built into Jewish liturgy. | | | The traditional texts that form the structure (keva) of Jewish prayer, however, were written a long time ago, and the poetic metaphors that the prayers use are sometimes distant and difficult for the modern reader. | | | In the following articles, you will read about the pressures to change the liturgy as well as different models for reacquiring texts by reinterpreting the metaphoric language. |
