Karaite Judaism or Karaism and more accurately Qaraite Judaism or Qaraism, (/ˈkærə.aɪt/ or /ˈkærə.ɪzəm/; Hebrew: יהדות קראית , ModernYahadut Qara'it from, TiberianQārāʾîm; meaning "Readers of the Hebrew Scriptures") is a Jewish movement characterized by the recognition of the Tanakh alone as its supreme legal authority in Halakha (Jewish religious law) and theology. It is distinct from mainstream Rabbinic Judaism, which considers the Oral Torah, as codified in the Talmud and subsequent works, to be authoritative interpretations of the Torah. Karaites maintain that all of the divine commandments handed down to Moses by God were recorded in the written Torah without additional Oral Law or explanation. As a result, Karaite Jews do not accept as binding the written collections of the oral tradition in the Midrash or Talmud.
When interpreting the Tanakh, Karaites strive to adhere to the plain or most obvious meaning ("peshat") of the text; this is not necessarily the literal meaning, but rather the meaning that would have been naturally understood by the ancient Israelites when the books of the Tanakh were first written. By contrast, Rabbinic Judaism relies on the legal rulings of the Sanhedrin as they are codified in the Midrash, Talmud, and other sources to indicate the authentic meaning of the Torah. Karaite Judaism holds every interpretation of the Tanakh to the same scrutiny regardless of its source, and teaches that it is the personal responsibility of every individual Jew to study the Torah, and ultimately decide personally its correct meaning. Karaites may consider arguments made in the Talmud and other works without exalting them above other viewpoints.

A Taste of Karaite Judaism In 30 Minutes or Less (Part 1)

I gave a brief intro on Karaite Judaism to a group of 5th-7th graders from a conservative synagogue. The sound is not great, I was a bit rusty, my shirt collar was sticking out of my coat, but there is some good info here.
A few notes:
(1) I had wanted to encourage these students to take pride in their Jewish tradition, even though it is something difficult to do the right thing as a minority. I don't think that came across as well as I had wanted;
(2) I slipped up at one point and stated that the reason Karaites pray on rugs is likely due to the Rabbinic prohibition of prostrating on "concrete." I should have said "stone," as I did elsewhere during the presentation; and

(3) When discussing the differences between Karaite and Rabbanite dietary laws, I was asked why shawarma is generally not permissible for Karaites. I should have just said that it usually seasoned with a particular type of fat that is specifically prohibited in the Torah. Instead I grossed the kids out by telling them where the fat comes from.

The KhazarianEmpire converted to Judaism in the 800’s ... I noticed that prior to 1000 AD under Torah Judaism (still practiced by Karaites today), the Jews were not thrown out of a lot of places ... To this day, Judaism is very much against converting out.
(THE CONVERSATION) As a scholar of modern Jewish history, religion and politics, I am often asked to explain the differences between Judaism’s major denominations ... Rabbinic Judaism believed that God gave Jewish teachings and scriptures to Moses at Mt.
For centuries Karaites, designated as apikorsim(heretics) who dared to adhere only to the Hebrew Bible, were persecuted, hounded and even killed by Talmudists ... Karaites who refused to leave were compelled to convert to rabbinic Judaism.( Cf.
Just as Christianity is an integral yet complex part of Arab heritage, so is Judaism ...Karaites reject the authority of the rabbinic oral tradition used by more mainstream branches of Judaism such as Reform, Conservative and Orthodox groups in the U.S.
Just as Christianity is an integral yet complex part of Arab heritage, so is Judaism ...Karaites reject the authority of the rabbinic oral tradition used by more mainstream branches of Judaism such as Reform, Conservative and Orthodox groups in the U.S.
Karaites have no rabbis, only sages, according to Oshra Gezer, vice-chair of the UniversalKaraite Judaism organization, and they follow a different religious calendar than traditional Jews.
The only Jewish groups that did see a rise, according to Lechaim.ru, were Karaites — a seventh-century breakaway sect from rabbinic Judaism — and Krymchaks.
Throughout history, various groups, from the Essenes to the Samaritans and the Karaites, challenged mainstream Judaism by insisting they represented the true path ... “The Book of Jewish Knowledge” reflects a normative Judaism as envisioned by Chabad.
