I would focus less on the Hebrew terminology and more on what makes food kosher or not. Also, why is it important to (some) Jews to "keep Kosher", while others may not bother?

Also, the image of the non-dairy creamer seems a bit "cheesy" (no pun intended). How about a rabbi or a butcher shop? Or a picnic at a synagogue? --Ed Poor ^Talk 15:44, 10 July 2008 (EDT)

I was going to ulpoad a picture of the major kosher symbols, but I do not have upload rights --  Deborah (contributions) (talk) 15:58, 10 July 2008 (EDT)

Cut and Paste

There's some extensive and significant cutting and pasting from [1]. Pasting another author's work wholesale and continually citing the source after the end of each sentence isn't acceptable in an academic paper. Corry 17:34, 11 July 2008 (EDT)

Actually I only copied a paragraph-size section from jewfaq.org/Kashrut.htm but interesting is that it is identical to http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/kashrut.html

I then used it as a source for some of the laws. I'll try to fix the problem --  Deborah (contributions) (talk) email me 17:44, 11 July 2008 (EDT) http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Talk:Kosher&action=edit

The article actually uses a small amount of material from jewfaq.org/Kashrut.htm, it uses from many more diverse sources now --  Deborah (contributions) (talk) email me 22:00, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Picture

I have found a good picture [2] but do not have upload rights can someone upload it for me --  Deborah (contributions) (talk) email me 21:55, 14 July 2008 (EDT)

Equivalence in cruelty to halal

Why the reversion? Surely animal cruelty is the same no matter which religion is responsible for it? The halal article mentions cruelty, so why not kosher?

Quite honestly, I think its nonsense. It's definitely less cruel than running around shooting deer. It should just be removed from the halal article.--Redsox70707 01:13, 1 July 2009 (EDT)

Why Kosher exists

Either the section or the title should be changed. The laws of Kashrut exist because they are in the Torah, the only other reason that could be put is for certain medical reasons.--Redsox70707 01:15, 1 July 2009 (EDT)

Kashrut in the New Testament

There is some disagreement concerning the view that the New Testament abrogates the food laws. See the Messianic_Judaism article. Bdbseven 21:46, 23 December 2012 (EST)
