| People continue to be afraid and uninformed or misinformed about the mystical side of Judaism, both in terms of Kabbalah and Hasidism. |
|
| Modern Hasidism evolved in 18th-century Poland, where its leader, Ba'al Shem Tov, taught a return to faith and piety. |
|
| The eastern European Diaspora created Hasidism, the Hebrew Haskalah, and Zionism. |
|
| It lists Hasidism and shul, for instance, but not words that receive greater emphasis in Stern's stories, like kishkes or nafkeh byiss. |
|
| In the above there is expressed an idea behind the thought of all branches of Hasidism, an idea applied especially to the life of prayer. |
|
| Yiddish and Hebrew secular writers have found in Hasidism an invaluable source of inspiration and creativity. |
|
| Hasidism attributes great spiritual power to singing and dancing because when done as forms of religious practices, they become instruments for achieving hitlahavut. |
|
| The history of Hasidism has transmitted some of these spontaneous prayers. |
|
| Excommunication was attempted again against religious diversity in the eighteenth century, this time against Hasidism, a folk movement, pietistic in character, which arose in Eastern Europe. |
|
| One of the first books Buber placed here was his retelling of the stories of Rabbi Nachman, one of the great figures of Eastern European Hasidism. |
|
| It is a very diversified thought, for there are as many bodies of doctrine in Hasidism as there were creative spirits during the first three generations of the movement. |
|
| This issue of the SIDIC review shows clearly that the spirit we call 'Franciscan' is also to be found in the movement within Judaism known as Hasidism. |
|
| It is not a homogeneous movement, so that it is precarious to speak of the hasidic attitude as if all the adherents of Hasidism shared a common viewpoint. |
|
| He did not mention that a series of scholars, notably Isaiah Tishby and Moshe Idel, differed from Scholem and spoke of externalistic messianic dimensions within Hasidism. |
|
| Hasidism appealed to many Europeans because it was easy to learn, did not require full immediate commitment, and presented a compelling spectacle. |
