From the Cairo Geniza, we uncover an ancient Judeo-Arabic rabbinic essay offering unique insights into the history and development of the Jewish calendar, particularly the observance of the second day of yom tov outside the Land of Israel. As we delve deeper, this document emerges as part of a broader debate, addressing the Karaites' opposition to the two-day yom tov tradition. By comparing this text with Rambam's perspective, we'll gain a deeper understanding of this critical issue and a window into a pivotal moment in Jewish history.

Though never large in number, the Karaite communities of Russia are an interesting side chapter in Russian Jewish history. Residing primarily in the Crimean Peninsula, with communities in Ukraine, Poland and Lithuania, the Czarist government recognized the Karaites as distinct from Rabbinic Jews. Due to this recognition and intense lobbying efforts, the Karaite community was gradually absolved from the many restrictions pertinent to the Jews of the empire, including permission to reside outside the Pale of Settlement. Karaite scholars from Lutzk flourished in Crimea during the 19th century, and one of their endeavors was to write a new history of Karaites of the region. The most famous of these was Avraham Firkovich, whose research and collections played a large role in forming the new Karaite identity as ethnically distant from the Jewish People. Though much of his work was proven to be based on forgeries, the Karaite community of Russia was overall successful in remaining a distinct ethnic tribe from the Jewish People, and therefore not susceptible to Czarist discrimination.

Refugees arrived in Egypt from Toldeo in 1459, with ideas of their own. But as the centuries progressed, the Karaites spread out from the Middle East. Crimea became the headquarters of the movement. However Abraham Firkowitz had his own ideas about history, in which facts did not necessarily feature. Although St. Petersburg owes him a continuing debt of gratitude.

1,200 years ago, a new form of Judaism was created, and it has lasted through the centuries. How far did Karaism spread? Did the Rambam allow them to be circumcised?

Karaite Judaism emerged in the ninth century in the Islamic Middle East as an alternative to the rabbinic Judaism of the Jewish majority. Karaites reject the underlying assumption of rabbinic Judaism, namely, that Jewish practice is to be based on two divinely revealed Torahs, a written one, embodied in the Five Books of Moses, and an oral one, eventually written down in rabbinic literature. In Karaism: An Introduction to the Oldest Surviving Alternative Judaism (Littman Library of Jewish Civilization, 2022), Daniel Lasker presents for the first time a comprehensive overview of the entire story of Karaite Judaism. Daniel J. Lasker is Norbert Blechner Professor of Jewish Values (Emeritus) at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. Schneur Zalman Newfield is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Borough of Manhattan Community College, City University of New York, and the author of Degrees of Separation: Identity Formation While Leaving Ultra-Orthodox Judaism (Temple University Press, 2020).

Golda Akhiezer's Historical Consciousness, Haskalah, and Nationalism Among the Karaites of Eastern Europe (Brill, 2017; translated by David Greenberg) is the first of its kind to deal with Eastern European Karaite historical thought. It focuses on the social functions of Karaite historical narratives concerning the rise of Karaism from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century. The book also deals with the image of Karaism created by Protestants, and with the perception of Karaism by some leaders of the Haskalah movement, especially the scholars of Hokhmat Israel. In both cases, Karaism was seen as an orientalistic phenomenon whereby the “enlightened” European scholars romanticized the “indigenous” people, while the Karaites (themselves), adopted this romantic images, incorporating it into their own national discourse. Finally, the book sheds new light on several conventional notions that shaped the study of Karaism from the nineteenth century. Learn more about your ad choices.

Kiril Feferman's The Holocaust in the Crimea and the North Caucasus (Yad Vadhem, 2016) presents a comprehensive account of the Jews in the Crimea and the North Caucasus in the Holocaust years. Based on extensive archival research, Feferman covers the life and destruction of the Jewish population in the region and describes in detail the relations between Jews and non-Jews before and during the war; the evacuation of Jews into these regions and out of them; the German occupation and the annihilation of the Ashkenazi Jewish population; the fate of non-Ashkenazi Jews in the area; Jewish responses; and reactions of local populations, including Cossacks, devout Orthodox Christians and Muslims. Objective factors, such as the availability of German manpower and food, weather and geographic conditions, in addition to subjective factors, such as the attitudes of Wehrmacht commanders, left their imprint on the implementation of the “Final Solution” policy in these areas. By the time the Germans occupied the Crimea in November 1941, it was absolutely clear to them that the Jews had to be eliminated. All the more so when they came to dominate the North Caucasus in the summer of 1942. Yet, the Nazi decision-makers were vexed by the need to clarify who was a Jew. The case of the Ashkenazi Jews was clear-cut, and their fate was similar to that of their brethren elsewhere in Europe. However, the Germans faced a formidable difficulty in categorizing the non-Ashkenazi Karaites and Krymchaks in the Crimea, and Mountain Jews in the North Caucasus, who, according to the Nazi world-view, shared some but not all racial and religious characteristics of Jews. Subsequently, German investigation involved a thorough pseudo-scientific analysis of racial and religious features by the Nazi academy, as well as SS “researchers.” Set against the background of the ongoing murder of Ashkenazi Jews in these regions and local politics with geo-political implications, this research title also focuses on the support – or lack thereof – lent to Karaites, Krymchaks and Mountain Jews by local Muslims. These interwoven histories cover a hitherto unexplored terrain in Holocaust history, and offer a fascinating window into the history of the Crimea and the North Caucasus and the fate of their Jewish inhabitants during World War II.

The case of the Ashkenazi Jews was clear-cut, and their fate was similar to that of their brethren elsewhere in Europe. However, the Germans faced a formidable difficulty in categorizing the non-Ashkenazi Karaites and Krymchaks in the Crimea, and Mountain Jews in the North Caucasus, who, according to the Nazi world-view, shared some but not all racial and religious characteristics of Jews. Subsequently, German investigation involved a thorough pseudo-scientific analysis of racial and religious features by the Nazi academy, as well as SS “researchers.” Set against the background of the ongoing murder of Ashkenazi Jews in these regions and local politics with geo-political implications, this research title also focuses on the support – or lack thereof – lent to Karaites, Krymchaks and Mountain Jews by local Muslims. These interwoven histories cover a hitherto unexplored terrain in Holocaust history, and offer a fascinating window into the history of the Crimea and the North Caucasus and the fate of their Jewish inhabitants during World War II.

Kiril Feferman's The Holocaust in the Crimea and the North Caucasus (Yad Vadhem, 2016) presents a comprehensive account of the Jews in the Crimea and the North Caucasus in the Holocaust years. Based on extensive archival research, Feferman covers the life and destruction of the Jewish population in the region and describes in detail the relations between Jews and non-Jews before and during the war; the evacuation of Jews into these regions and out of them; the German occupation and the annihilation of the Ashkenazi Jewish population; the fate of non-Ashkenazi Jews in the area; Jewish responses; and reactions of local populations, including Cossacks, devout Orthodox Christians and Muslims. Objective factors, such as the availability of German manpower and food, weather and geographic conditions, in addition to subjective factors, such as the attitudes of Wehrmacht commanders, left their imprint on the implementation of the “Final Solution” policy in these areas.

In Episode 123 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg discusses the history of Khazaria, the medieval Turko-Jewish empire in what is now southern Russia and eastern Ukraine. While the fate of the mysterious Khazars has won much attention from scholars—and controversy—because of what it may reveal about the origin of the Jews of Eastern Europe, this question also touches on the origins of the Ukrainian people and state. Whatever the validity of the "Khazar Thesis" about the ethnogenesis of the Ashkenazim, it is the Ukrainian Jews—such as President Volodymyr Zelensky—who are the most likely to trace a lineage of the Khazars. In 2021, Zelenksy and the Ukrainian parliament passed a law recognizing the cultural and autonomous rights of three indigenous peoples of the Russian-annexed Crimean Peninsula: the Muslim Tatars and the Jewish Krymchaks and Karaites. Of any Jews on Earth, it is these last two groups that have the best claim to the Khazar inheritance—and are now a part of the struggle for a free and multicultural Ukraine, in repudiation of the Russian neo-imperialist project.

After Moshe recounts the 10 Commandments --the 10 "word-statements"-- in Deuteronomy chapter 5, we get the Shema and the Ve-Ahavta, we must Hearken to "these words," incribe them in our hearts, and return God's love by loving through teaching these words. What are the words? Given the context of chapter 5, it would make sense these are the 10 Commandments, perhaps to be the text of the mezuzah and teaching the VeAhavta is exhorting. Of course, the Rabbis argue vociferously that this cannot be, and just gives unwarranted support to Karaites and others who deny the Torah by reducing it to the 10 Commandments. (The Rabbis have some justification for their argument.) So "these words which I command you this day" become the entire set of teachings of the written Torah and our own interpretations that all happen through the act of God's love and our Love for God, and therefore the Mezuzah includes this selection about Love. What does it mean to love Torah? Delivered on the day of Tu B'Av, the annual Jewish "Valentine's Day" that celebrates falling in love and romance, I share my experience of love and loving a Torah that goes beyond sentences.

Shawn Lichaa is a Karaite. "What's that," you ask? Very valid question! Karaites are a group of Jews whose traditions, and interpretations, are built around the Bible alone -- not the Talmud or any other piece of what Rabbanites (rabbinic Jews) call "the oral Torah."Lichaa, founder of The Karaite Press and A Blue Thread: A Jewish Blog with a Thread of Karaite Throughout, joins Dan and Lex to explore Karaite Jews' relationship to the Bible, and ways in which their approaches differ from rabbinic Jews'. In their conversation, they also ask what light Karaites can shine on broader issues affecting many other groups of marginalized Jews as well.If you're enjoying Judaism Unbound, please help us keep things going with a one-time or monthly tax-deductible donation.

Jaz says in this episode that they think that child sacrifice was a thing in the ancient Middle East, but the archaeological evidence for that seems kind of scant, so take that assertion with a grain of salt.

Shabbat Observance and of Supporting Shabbat Observance The more we recognize and appreciate the inestimable value of Shabbat observance, the greater our devotion to, and enthusiasm for, Shabbat will be. A story is told (in Ha'Shabbat Be'mehitzat Ha'Hafetz Haim , p. 57) of a man who suffered from a stomach ailment that led his doctors to warn him to avoid certain foods, including hamin (“cholent”) – the traditional Shabbat food that cooks on the fire through Friday night and is then eaten for Shabbat lunch. Our tradition affords great importance to eating such foods on Shabbat in order to publicly renounce the heretical view of the Karaites, who erroneously maintained that the Torah forbids leaving a fire burning on Shabbat. This man wanted to know whether he should forego on this custom in light of the doctor's warnings that this food would cause him pain and discomfort in his stomach. He brought his question to the Hafetz Haim. The Hafetz Haim answered that if one eats לכבוד שבת , with the intention of giving honor to Shabbat, then שבת היא מלזעוק ורפואה קרובה לבוא . This expression means that Shabbat is not a time for praying on behalf of sick patients (unless somebody is seriously ill), and the Hafetz Haim was telling this patient that if he is genuinely committed to the honor of Shabbat, then Shabbat will not be a cause of cries of pain. To the contrary, ורפואה קרובה לבוא – the merit of honoring Shabbat will bring good health and will cure him of his ailments. “Are you sure?” the man asked. “Can I be certain that I won't get sick from eating this food?” “If you are very concerned,” the Hafetz Haim said, “then listen to your doctors and don't eat it.” Later Rabbis explained the Rabbi's response to mean that if one has full, unquestioning faith in our Sages' guarantees, then he will earn protection. But if a person entertains doubts, and is skeptical, then he will not earn full protection. (A similar point is made about the privilege of serving as sandak at a berit , which is said to be a segulah that brings wealth. Of course, not everybody who serves as sandak becomes wealthy, and the explanation given is that most people do not fully trust the power of this merit, and so they do not earn its special benefits.) Therefore, it behooves us to regularly reinforce our belief in the special powers and benefits of Shabbat observance, as this belief will ensure that we reap those benefits. On an earlier occasion, we told another story of the Hafetz Haim, who once advised Rav Avraham Kalmanovitch that he could “sell” his merit of Shabbat observance to a seriously ill patient, so he would be healed. For the Hafetz Haim, the merit of Shabbat was something real and tangible, no less than a material object. Just as one has property, such as a home, which he could sell, the merit of Shabbat observance is likewise an asset of immense value. It is told (in Rabbi Paysach Krohn's Illuminations of the Maggid , p. 285) that the family of Rav Shayela Kerestirer (1851-1925) was once preparing for Shabbat on Friday, expecting a large group of guests, and they suddenly realized that they did not have enough money for the food they needed. Just then, a man from a wealthy family knocked on the door, and requested a blessing from the Rabbi on behalf of his father, who had taken seriously ill. The Rabbi told the young man that if his father would pay for all the Rabbi's Shabbat needs, he would be healed. The man went home to tell his father what the Rabbi said, and the father agreed. He brought the Rabbi the money to cover all his Shabbat costs, and sure enough, the next week, the father was cured. Rav Shayela was later asked to identify the source of this concept, that one earns good health by supporting another person's Shabbat. He replied by pointing to the compensation requirements that the Torah establishes in a case where one caused his fellow physical harm. These requirements include shevet – compensating for the income the victim lost as a result of his injury – as well as covering his medical costs (in addition to other payments). The Torah (Shemot 21:19) commands, רק שבתו יתן ורפא ירפא (“only he must pay his lost income, and for his cure”). This phrase may be understood to mean, “Even if one only gives money for another person's Shabbat, then he will be healed.” This is the source of the notion that giving financial assistance to allow somebody to properly honor Shabbat brings merit that is capable of curing one's illnesses. More generally, this story demonstrates that when we enable other people to perform a mitzvah , we share the merit of that mitzvah . For example, by supporting a yeshivah one earns a share in the merit of the Torah studied in the yeshivah. By supporting hesed projects, one earns the merit of the acts of kindness that he helped to facilitate. Likewise, by helping people to properly observe Shabbat, one earns the immense benefits of their Shabbat observance. A striking example of this concept appears in the Kaf Ha'haim (223), which rules, citing the Hid”a, that when a scholar publishes a new Torah book, this occasion warrants the recitation of the berachah of שהחיינו . The Kaf Ha'haim adds that this applies even to the sponsor of a Torah book. Since he facilitated the book's publication, he is an equal partner in the merits of Torah being spread, and so he, too, may recite שהחיינו . Observing Shabbat, and helping others to properly observe Shabbat, is exceedingly valuable and offers great benefits. Let us appreciate these benefits and look for opportunities to both enhance our own Shabbat observance and help other people to enhance their Shabbat observance, so we can earn all the special blessings that Shabbat –the מקור הברכה (source of blessing) – has to offer.

A debate between the Karaites and traditional Jews focused on the anomaly of the Rabbis calling the document of divorce a get, neglecting the biblical term for the writ of divorce (sefer krisus). This class presents an explanation why it is specifically the portion discussing the daily lamb sacrifices that conveys the essence of an enduring relationship. From a spiritual and psychological perspective, these two types of offerings represent two types of sacrifice: Self-motivated sacrifice vs. complete sacrifice; conditional sacrifice vs. unconditional sacrifice. It is this type of relationship that eliminates the possibility of divorce. Hence, it is from this offering that the Torah omits the two letters representing divorce.
