Da'as Torah (or Da'at Torah, Da'as Toyreh) ((ヘブライ語:דעת תורה), literally "Knowledge of Torah"), is a concept in Haredi Judaism according to which Jews should seek the input of rabbinic scholars not just on matters of Jewish law but on all important life matters, on the grounds that knowledge of the Torah aids everything in life. == In contemporary Haredi Judaism == Avi Shafran, Director of Public Affairs for the American Hareidi organization Agudath Israel of America, explains the concept as follows: Similarly, Rabbi Pesach Eliyahu Falk writes: Accordingly, Haredi Judaism espouses a belief that Jews, both individually and collectively, should seek out the views of the prominent religious scholars of the generation (called ''Gedolim'', "great ones", or ''gedolei Torah'' or ''gedolei Yisrael'') not just on matters of Jewish law or matters "of religion", but in every aspect of life, from issues of health to secular politics. Further whereas in declaring matters of Jewish law rabbinic authorities are required to render decisions based on precedents, sources, and Talmudic principles of analysis, a rabbinic authority has greater latitude when declaring ''Da'as Torah'' than when defining a halakhic opinion. While a halakhic opinion requires legal justification from recognized sources, simple ''Da'as Torah'' is regarded as being of a more subtle nature and requires no clear legal justification or explicit grounding in earlier sources. Indeed, different authorities may offer diametrically opposed opinions based on their own understanding.〔(Feitman, 1995〕 In Hasidic circles, a ''rebbe'' is often regarded as having extraordinary spiritual powers and is sought for personal advice in all pursuits of life by his followers. The views and edicts of a ''rebbe'' are considered to be an expression of ''Da'as Torah''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Da'as Torah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
