WOmman and Religion

[mike435]

This is written in the Hebrew Talmud, the book where all of the sayings and preaching of Rabbis are conserved over time.

It says:
"Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears.

The woman came out of a man's rib. Not from his feet to be walked on.

Not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal.

Under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved."

Pass this on to all exceptional women that you know … and to men so they know the value of a woman.

wow! is jews treat women as equal to men in terms of religion?

yea belive it or not
jewish philosophy belives that a man and a woman are two sould that throgh marriage will become one, and that ones brings you closer to g-d.

its like a triangle g-d at tope man and woman on each corner and kids in the middle somthing like that

here is were the relligion becomes on equal

if a divorce happens it is up to the man


woman are not required to do most of the mitzvas they are concidered complete already that is why they are not allowed to read the torah in front of a congression, or put on tefilin.

but yea when i was at this jewish school and some of the classes regarding marriage and treatment of wife in my own pop culture ie persian american felt like get woped.

also orthodox jews dont belive in getting to know someone befor you mary you are not soposed to "fall in love" with the person rather you are soposed to build love. It isnt arranged marriage but they dont go on extensive dates.
they just go on dates and talke about their aspiration and goals and then they get married.



also woman in jewish religion are considered the foundation of the house hold and the i guss you could say captin of the ship in terms or spiritual guidness.

but yea woman are treated equaly. acctualy in some ways i think better.

other than the divorce thing
i think the woman in the jewish relligion are treated better than men.
