(A) Role Of men and women equal? Flashcards
Subject 1: No
women have a higher spiritual. They are above men
In Orthodox Judaism, women are considered to be on a higher spiritual plane, thus not obligated to fulfill all the commandments. So their roles are different, which can lead to inequalities.
Subject 2: No
Women are a bride or a queen
Men are external. Women are internal. We get quiet. We clean when something upsets us. Women have different requirements. We are creators and nurturers. Women were created to be a helper to a man. Every woman has the obligation to go to the Mikva house once a month and to pray every morning thanking Hashem for making me according to his will. We don’t pray 3 times a day because we don’t have to. In the Torah a woman is considered the queen, or a bride. Women epitomize Shabbat and Hashem is our King. No where in Torah mentions a man as the ruler of a woman.
