The yarmulka, the word is an acronym for "Yireyh De'Malkah" which means "fear of the Kingdom" meaning that of the Kingdom of Heaven.\nInterestingly enough, this was not orginally Jewish in Origin.\nIn ancient days, when a person stood before a mortal king, they would have to cover their heads.\nWhen Jews had to do the same, they decided, "If we are going to do this for a mortal king, how much more should we do it for the KING of kings?"  Since God is everywhere, you are constantly in the presence of God.  So, it became wide spread to constantly wear some kind of head-covering, even if it is just a hat.  It became a custom to use what is currently today called a Yarmulka, or Kippah.  Yarmulka is the Yiddish word, while Kippah is the Hebrew word.  With many, they will, not only wear the yarmulka, but they will wear a hat on top of it, they will cover their heads twice.  This i forget as to why.

By ruwach, I am wondering if you mean the Hebrew word for Spirit/Wind?  I usually see this spelled ruach in English, that's why I'm asking.\n\nAnyways, the word is spelled \nresh-vav-chet\n\nIf you want to see those letters in the really ancient Hebrew script, go to:\n\nhttp://www.ancientscripts.com/old_hebrew.html\n\nThat is the ancient alphabetic script, and the letters you are looking for are r, w, and h with a dot under it (don't get that confused with the regular h).\nThen make sure to arrange the letters from right to left, and that is what the word would look like!\n\nIf you want to see it in modern Hebrew letters, you can go to:\n\nhttp://www.ancientscripts.com/hebrew.html\n\nand do the same thing.\n\nSorry I couldn't give you a link that just had it already spelled out.  That's the best I could do!  ;)

I've asked this question before, actually. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AutS5JZA1SeAz4Wwe_TTd9rsy6IX?qid=1006053111285\nSeems to be a jewish tradition.

Mitzvot are commandments.  All Jews must follow the commandment.  Some of those commandments are to offer sacrifices at the temple.  The temple is destroyed and will not be rebuilt until the Messiah comes.  We Jews are waiting for the messiah.\nIn order to atone for our sins we do TESHUVA - we literally 'return', and repent.  We do this by asking others for forgiveness, giving more charity, and prayer.  We ask G-d for forgiveness.  \nYom Kippur is only part of this.  I don't have to wait until Yom Kippur to do teshuva.  \nThree times a day in prayer Jews ask G-d to help them 'return' to Him.

Yom Tov means "good day" literally, and refers to the Holidays. The length depends on which holiday you mean. For example, Passover is the Holiday, the first two and the last two days are Chag, meaning Holy Day, while the 4 days in between are Holiday but you can work like normal on them. The whole 8 days would be a Yom Tov, a Holiday.

It is one of G-d's commandments to the Jewish people only. People have found practical (health) reasons to show this is beneficial. But actually, this is not the reason. The reason is that G-d wanted to take eating and food into the realm of holiness - to elevate this basic appetite (physical) and make it holy in the real world. Many of G-d's laws have this purpose - to take basic needs and appetites, and transform them, elevate them, in order to have spiritual holiness in our lives.

It is from the Hebrew Amayn meaning "let it be so".  The longer version of this would be Kayn Yihi Ratzon.\n\nIn Jewish practice, it isn't something you would say after your own prayer, but rather something you would say after hearing someone else's prayer. So it acts as an affirmation that you agree with what the other person has said.

Actually the Bible only condemns certain foods for Jewish people, later in the New Testament it says that all things are cleansed by God's grace with the giving of thanks. Basically the premeal prayer
