foreword

Much has been written recently for the Jewish woman and about her, but this book fills an important gap in the literature of this kind .

To answer those who ask about the place that the Torah devotes to women in the general scheme of the world , there were books and articles , an advocate , and they tried to explain what is obvious to everyone who lives in the Torah Jew : the importance and dignity of the role that targets the Jewish women and that they are so faithfully execute throughout our history .

On the other hand, there were publications on special Dinim addressed to women , first and foremost - the laws Taarat Amishpaha , family purity . Details of these laws , as well as their rationality - to the extent that we can try to comprehend it - occupied many authors .

However, no one had made no attempt to piece together the provisions relating to the overall performance of Mitzvot women. However , anyone familiar with the laws of the Torah knows that - except for the laws of family purity of life, Shabbat candles and Challah offices entrusted to it Jewish woman - women are subject to the discipline of absolute words of the Torah . As for men , their life at every moment is dictated by the Divine command of the Torah , while at the same time, as their role is definitely different from that of men , there are differences in many provisions of the law .

This book is an attempt to bring together all these special provisions . And not only for ease of reference . Introducing the all-encompassing picture of a woman doing its job in the cycle of everyday life , this book is a plan that Avodat Hashem , which should pervade and shape a woman's life , and we can expect that for many it will and leadership and inspiration in the pursuit of high-end .
