| Zusammenfassung: | The paper seeks to trace the positive/understanding attitude of the Jewish tradition towards people with disabilities from the earliest days of Judaism, in terms of the Mitzvah (commandment, mandate) relationship set forth in the imperatives of the faith. And, from the theological point of view, identical with the area of mandated action, consideration for such people is normative since the view of these individuals is that they are identical with all others save for some modification or nuance, physical or emotional-and, since every human is unique and different, which does not have some modification or nuance? Citations from text are set forth in order to document this twofold the-sis-the positive attitude and the considerate but not condescending attendant action called for on the part of adherents of Judaism. |
