  Anan ben David Summary
Anan Ben David is often considered to be the founder of the Karaite movement (a form of Judaism that split off from rabbinic Judaism due to its rejection of the oral law), or at least the founder of one of the main groups forming the Karaite movement.
Anan was to declare that his religion was different from Rabbinical Judaism, and that his followers entirely coincided with him in matters of religious doctrine; which was an easy matter for Anan to say, because the majority of them were opposed to the rabbis.
Anan's law-book insists that the Sabbath evening (Friday) must be passed in darkness: lights kindled in the daytime on Friday must be extinguished at nightfall, for it is forbidden to pass the Sabbath in a place artificially illuminated.

 Anan ben David   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Anan was to declare that his religion was quite a different one from that of his brother and of the rabbinical Jews, and that his followers entirely coincided with him in matters of religious doctrine; which was an easy matter for Anan to say, because the majority of them were opposed to the rabbis.
Moreover, Anan won for himself the favor of the calif by his deep veneration for Muhammed as the prophet of the Arab peoples, and by the declaration that his new religion, in many ways was similar to Islam.
Although Anan was opposed in certain points to traditional Judaism, he evidently could not, as long as he laid claim to an office dependent upon the Babylonian rabbinical academies, have possibly devised so radical a project as that of completely overturning the thousand-year-old edifice of rabbinical Judaism.

 KARANAN
Anan's belief and teaching was a new approach of understanding belief and religion based on complete tolerance and personal conviction of each believer on condition that he believes in a single God, future life and recognizes Moses, Jesus Christ and Mahomet as prophets and also shares Anan's ideas concerning the clergy.
Anan did not pretend to be a prophet, and nearly everything he had advocated we find not in the religions but in the Revelations of the three prophets, therefore it is logically and correctly to consider his teaching as a syncretic one.
Anan was likely to know that not the whole content of the Pentateuch corresponds to Moses' words, and therefore he gave the right to everybody to have his own judgement as to what was acceptable to him.

'ANAN BEN DAVID, a Persian Jew of the 8th century, and founder within Judaism of the sect of Qaraites (Karaites) which set itself in opposition to the rabbinic tradition.
'Anan was an unsuccessful candidate for the dignity of Exilarch, and thus his opposition to the rabbanite Jews was political as well as theological.
His secession occurred at a moment when the time was ripe for a reaction against rabbinism, and 'Anan became the rallying point for many opponents of tradition.

Previous ANAN reports have focused on the problems that are inherent in maintaining 'scheduled' flights to Marambio given the delays that often occur due to weather (ANAN-31/01, 27 September 2000), however on this occasion at least the flights were able to operate on time.
Quark told ANAN late last month however that no formal agreement for such passage had been reached with the NAE, that correspondence with the pair was limited, and that the inability of the ship to wait should the trekkers be late arriving at Ross Island was made clear to them (ANAN-40/04, 31 January 2001).
It appears from advice ANAN has received from elsewhere however, that that Norwegian government assessment was made on the basis that the traverse was to terminate at the Pole, and that the trekkers were to be flown from there by commercial air operator Adventure Network International (ANI).

 2.2.4 What's the deal with Setalle Anan? Is she the one who is no longer?
The Anan woman must have told them, though how she knows....She's an innkeeper, and she must be taught to guard her tongue!" Berowin gasped, wide-eyed with shock, and dropped into a chair so hard she nearly bounced.
So, at the same time, Anan is regarded as an innkeeper who must be taught to guard her tongue, who knows few secrets, and also somebody who they don't dare offend, even to ask to be more circumspect.
If Anan was only a failed Novice or Accepted, as Elayne supposes, then Garenia would not fear that she'd turn her in, and Reanne would not be so deferential to her, so Anan must have been Aes Sedai.

 Parashat Korach: K'toret and 'Anan - Torah.org
Generating the "cloud of the K'toret" ('Anan haK'toret) is the apparent purpose of burning the K'toret itself - in other words, Aharon was told to burn the K'toret in such a manner as the cloud of smoke would cover the entire Kapporet.
While the 'Anan allowed for different versions of Truth, the K'toret allowed for purification of that which was blemished - for an essential striving for purity which had not been realized.
This orientation was the opposite of that held by Korach, such that the 'Anan could not appear until their demise.

 POICA-The Segregation Wall Devours Thousands of Dunums from the Village of Beit ‘Anan
The Israeli official attack on the lands of Beit 'Anan for the purpose of constructing the Segregation Wall started in July 17, 2003, when the Israeli Occupation forces served residents of Beit 'Anan military orders to confiscate their lands for constructing the Segregation Wall.
It is considered a private property owned by more than 300 people from Beit 'Anan who have documents that prove their ownership of the mountain and the lands adjacent to it.
Therefore, residents of Beit 'Anan village objected the route of the wall and filed a suit to the Israeli high court in an attempt to change the route that consumes most of their agricultural lands.

 Anan ben David --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Anan seems to have become prominent in the 760s, when he competed with his younger brother for the office of exilarch, head of the Jews of the Babylonian Exile.
This Jewish sect, founded by Anan ben David in the 8th century, rejected the authority of the Oral Law—that is, of the Mishna and the Talmud.
The firm, and on occasion oppressive, tactics of exilarchs and geonim generated antirabbinic reactions, especially in outlying areas where enforcement was difficult, in the form of sectarian and messianic revolts.
