This data base is the
result of an ongoing project run by Prof.
Uri Ehrlich of the Goldstein-Goren
department of Jewish Thought at Ben Gurion
University of the Negev. The Prayer in
Rabbinic Literature Database was created to
promote the study of Jewish liturgy and to
enable researchers and students alike to
investigate prayer-related rabbinic texts
per various rubrics. This developing
database enables retrieval of sources
according to: * liturgical categories and
settings, both statutory and spontaneous; *
the historical strata of rabbinic
literature, according to specific book or
according to person(s) named in a tradition;
* subject categories.
The Jewish History
Resource Center is a project of the Dinur
Center for Research in Jewish History. Over
6000 links to websites in more than 30
categories dealing with Jewish History were
visited by our team and have been found to
be of value to those interested in Jewish
History.
An index of sites from
the University of Manchester, The Nathan
Laski Jewish Studies Internet Resource
Center offers a careful selection of links
to websites useful for teaching and research
purposes, together with summaries of the
features of each site. Headings include:

Literature , Holocaust , Israel & Zionism ,
Jewish-Christian Relations , Jewish

The World Union of Jewish
Studies in cooperation with Yad-Vashem, The
Claims Conference, and The Ministry of
Education, Culture and Sport, with the
support of several other institutions and
organization, has initiated and founded the
project "LEKKET" which presents before
scholars and students a collection of basic
articles on the subject of Jewish Studies.
All the articles were selected and
classified by academic committees from the
different research fields of Jewish studies.
This page is a subset of
texts derived from the three major online
Sourcebooks (Internet Ancient History
Sourcebook Internet Medieval Sourcebook
Medieval Jewish Section , Internet Modern
History Sourcebook), along with added texts
and web site indicators. Headings include:
The Jewish People, The Emergence of Judaism,
The Jewish Middle Ages and Jewish Life Since
the Enlightenment. The site includes a vast
number of links, including quotes from
primary sources, etc,
This website contains the
complete contents of the 12-volume Jewish
Encyclopedia, which was originally published
between 1901-1906. The Jewish Encyclopedia,
which recently became part of the public
domain, contains over 15,000 articles and
illustrations. Many articles are indeed
outdated, but there is still a lot of
invaluable material and the encyclopedia
itself has become part of the history of
Jewish Studies.
