tzniut
The term tzniut (Hebrew: צניעות, ''tzniut'', Sephardi pronunciation, ''tzeniut(h)''; Ashkenazi pronunciation, ''tznius'', "modesty", or "privacy") is used within Judaism and has its greatest influence as a concept within Orthodox Judaism and sometimes within Conservative Judaism. It is used to describe both the character trait of modesty and humility, as well as a group of Jewish laws pertaining to conduct in general and especially between the sexes. The term is frequently used with regard to the rules of dress for women.
==Hebrew Bible and Talmud==
Humility is a paramount ideal within Judaism. Moses is referred to as "exceedingly humble, more than any man in the world" (Book of Numbers 12:3), though the adjective used of Moses is ''anav'' (ענו), and not tzana (צָנַע), the cognate of the noun ''tzniut.''〔Paul Eidelberg ''Judaic man: toward a reconstruction of Western civilization'' 1996 p193 ""Now the man Moses was very humble (''anav''), above all the men that were on the face of the earth." Strange that the Torah uses no other adjective to characterize a man so extraordinary as Moses. After all, though supremely humble.. "〕 The verb ''tzana'' "to be humble" occurs in Proverbs 11:2 and, (in the hiphil), "walk humbly" in Micah 6:8.
The Talmud states that humility is one of the characteristic traits of the Jewish people (Talmud, Tractate Yevamot 79a).
