Washing the hands (from Wikipedia)[]General basis in Jewish law

Therabbis of the Talmud derived the requirement of washing the hands as aconsequence of the statement inLeviticus15:11

And whoever he that hath issue (azav, ejaculant with anunusual discharge) touches without having rinsed his hands in water, he shallwash his clothes, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean until the evening.

and fromPsalms26:6

I will wash my hands in innocence; so will I compass Thine altar,O LORD.

TheTalmudinferred the specific requirements ofhand-washing from these passages.

The general Hebrew term for ritual hand washing isnetilatyadayim, meaninglifting up of the hands. The term \"the washing ofhands\" after evacuation is sometimes referred to as \"to washasheryatzar\" referring to thebracha(blessing) said which startswith these words.

Halakha(Jewish law) requires that the water used for ritualwashing be naturally pure, unused, not contain other substances, and not be discoloured.The water also must be poured from a vessel as a human act, on the basis ofreferences in the Bible to this practice, e.g.Elishapouring water uponthe hands ofElijah. Water should be poured on each hand at least twice. Aclean dry substance should be used instead if water is unavailable

How performed

Contemporary practice is to pour water on each hand three timesfor most purposes using a cup, and alternating the hands between eachoccurrence; this ritual is now known by theYiddishtermnegelvasser, meaningnail water. This Yiddish term is also used for a specialcup used for such washing.

At meals

\"Ntillat yadayim\" redirects here.

TheBabylonian Talmuddiscusses two types of washing atmeals: washing before a meal is described asfirst waters(the Hebrewterm ismayim rishonim), and after a meal is known aslast waters(theHebrew term ismayim aharonim). The first term has generally fallen fromcontemporary usage; the second term has stuck. The modern term for the formerisNtillat yadayim, washing of hands. Washing before meals is normativeinOrthodox Judaism.

TheGemarahof theBabylonian talmudcontainshomilectic descriptions of the importance of the practice, including anargument that washing before meals is so important that neglecting it istantamount to unchastity, and risks divine punishment in the form of suddendestruction or poverty.The discussion ofmayim acharonim, washingafter meals, contains a suggestion that washing after meals, as a healthmeasure, is the more important of the two washings, on grounds that the saltused as a preservative in food could cause blindness if the eyes were rubbedwithout washing.

Althoughmayim acharonimwas once not widely practiced(for example, until recently it did not appear in many OrthodoxPassoverHaggadahs) it has undergone something of a revival and has become morewidely observed in recent years, particularly for special meals such astheShabbatandJewish holidays.ConservativeJudaismhas supported discontinuing the practice ofmayim acharonimonthe grounds that the rabbis of the Talmud instituted it as a health measure,and since modern foods no longer contain preservatives so dangerous as to causeblindness upon contact with the eyes, washing the hands after meals is nolonger required and can be discontinued by contemporary rabbinic decision.

The standardPassover Sederhas an additional, thirdwashing, prior to eating the green vegetable, which is considered an act ofeating separate from the meal. In Orthodox Judaism, it also has the same typesof washings as any other meal, one before the meal and one after. Only the onebefore the meal is generally done outside Orthodox Judaism

Before worshipA sink for ritual hand washing at the entrance to theRamban Synagogue.

Beforethe Priestly Blessing

InOrthodoxJudaism(and, in some cases, inConservative Judaism),Kohanim,members of the priestly class, offer thePriestly Blessingbefore thecongregation on certain occasions. Before performing their offices, they arerequired to wash their hands. Judaism traditionally traces this requirement totheTorah:

After sleeping

TheTalmudstatesGod commanded Jewsto wash the handsand provides the text of thenetilatyadaimblessing still in use.

According to theShulchanArucha person who slept is required to wash upon arising, and says thenatilatyadayimblessing.

Other occasions

The hands are also washed:

after cutting one\'s hair or nails
after participating in a funeral procession, upon leaving a cemetery, or coming within four cubits of a corpse
after touching a normally covered part of your body(private parts, back , arm pits, etc.)
after touching inside of nose and ear
after touching the scalp, but not if you just touched the hair
prior to scribal work (optional)
