Charity in Judaism
Abstract
Charity in Judaism Poverty is one of the most common social problems throughout human history. Hence, many religions aimed to solve this problem and showed similar solutions and approaches for the reduction of poverty. As in other religions, helping poor people is a crucial social and religious responsibility in Judaism. In this context, the concept of charity and its im- portance in Judaism tradition has been examined in this study. The scope of this study is to study the charity tradition in Judaism, the evaluation of charity references in the Jew- ish Scripture, and then the analysis of the interpretation and details of this charity tradi- tion in the Talmud literature in later periods. At this juncture, we will discuss some “reli- gious laws” (halakhah) such as the nature of charity, who may take charity, and how it may be given. Then, we gave special emphasis on the changing understanding of charity in the Judaic tradition in the historical processes of this religion. More specially, we exam- ined the meaning and institutional change of the pertinent concept following the Talmu- dic Period; namely in Modern Judaism
