Editor's Notes
- Most Jewish people experience their religion throughout daily life. Their religion influences their choices during their daily lives, for example when they pray and what they eat.
- Many Jewish people think they are a source of ‘Divine Protection’ for the home.Some Jewish people just have a Mezuzah on their front doorposts, while others believe they should be on every doorpost in the house.
- For example, Meat must be properly salted to remove all blood.
- This is not very specific, so some men wear skull caps all day, every day, while others wear skull caps just during prayer.
