What is Torah Observance?
Torah observance is another term for Orthodox Judaism, which denotes religious practice in accordance with the teachings of the Torah. The term Orthodox can imply rigidity and ultra-conservatism, so I am reluctant to employ it exclusively; although I’ll use it periodically. I hope I am showing in this web site that Torah observance need not be and should not be rigid and anachronistic. The Torah does not use any Hebrew word for Orthodox. It just refers to Jews, commandments, and principles for righteous living.
