Chesed
''Chesed'' (חסד, also Romanized ''khesed'', ''ẖesed'') is a Hebrew word commonly translated as "loving-kindness," "kindness" or "love." ''Chesed'' is central to Jewish ethics and Jewish theology and is a common term in the Bible for describing God’s love for humankind and God’s special relationship with the Children of Israel.〔Berlin, Adele and Marc Zvi Brettler. “Psalms” Introduction and Annotations. ''The Jewish Study Bible''. Ed. Berlin and Brettler. New York: Oxford University Press, 2004. 1280-1446. Print.〕
Chesed is valued by religious Jews of all denominations. It is considered a virtue on its own, and also for its contribution to ''tikkun olam'' (repairing the world). It's also the foundation of many religious commandments practiced by traditional Jews, especially interpersonal commandments. Chesed is the basis for a wide variety of Jewish communal institutions.
''Chesed'' is also one of the ten sephirot on the kabbalistic Tree of Life. It is given the association of kindness and love, and is the first of the emotive attributes of the ''sephirot''.
