	JewishEncyclopedia.com - ISSERLES, MOSES BEN ISRAEL (ReMA):
		Isserles was also an excellent scribe, and in the scroll of the Pentateuch which he wrote and which is preserved in the synagogue—originally his house, which he gave to the community for a place of worship—there are fourteen readings different from those in other scrolls (see "Ha-Maggid," i.
		Isserles saw that Caro's "table" was not sufficiently "prepared"; for Caro as a Sephardi had neglected the Ashkenazic minhagim.
		These accusations are unjustified, because Isserles was consistent in principle, inasmuch as he regarded the minhag as the norm for the practise on both the liberal and the restrictive sides.

	Darkhei Moshe by Rabbi Moses Isserles
		Simultaneous with Caro's work on the Beit Yosef, Isserles was working on a similar project entitled Darkhei Moshe, in which he studied and evaluated the rulings of the Tur in comparison with other halakhic authorities.
		Isserles felt that only such an extensive analytical summary of the previous literature could serve as a valid basis for subsequent decisions.
		In particular, Isserles wished to remedy the imbalance implicit in Caro's almost complete reliance on Spanish authorites, to the exclusion of the traditions that were current among central- and eastern-European ("Ashkenazic") Jews,and formed the basis of venerable customs in those communities.

		The Rema (acronym for Rabbi Moses Isserles) Synagogue -- located in Kazimierz, the Jewish quarter of Kraków, Poland -- was founded in 1553.
		His contemporaries considered Isserles to be the "Maimonides of Polish Jewry" and he can be compared to him in his universal outlook, in his attachment to both Talmud and secular knowledge, in his manner of study, in his methodical approach, in his decisiveness, in his character, and in his humility.
		Rabbi Moses Isserles is perhaps best remembered for his commentary on Sephardic Rabbi Joseph Karo's code of Talmudic law -- Shulhan Arukh ("The Prepared Table").

	The Shulhan Arukh
		Simultaneous with Caro's work on the Beit Yosef, Isserles was working on a similar project entitled Darkhei Moshe ("the ways of Moses"), in which he studied and evaluated the rulings of the Tur in comparison with other halakhic authorities.
		Isserles perceived a serious shortcoming in Caro's work, in that it was based almost entirely on Spanish (Sepharadic) authorities.
		Isserles sought to perform this service with his glosses, in which he supplemented the rulings of Caro's original Shulhan Arukh with material drawn from the laws, interpretations and customs of Franco-German and Polish Jewry.

		Both Moses Mendelssohn and Daniel Itzig were direct descendants of the famous scholar, Rabbi Moses Isserles of Krakow (1520-1572).
		He argued that Moses constructed a political society with equal rights for all persons as defined in Exodus 18:21, and that the covenant that Jews made with God was to be applied not only to the Jews themselves, but to their activity with others.
		As a protégé of some of Moses Mendelssohn's closest collaborators, he was chosen to be the rabbi for the new Reform synagogue in Vienna, where he presided for the rest of his life.

	Kulanu: Conversion out of the faith
		The very famous rabbi, Moses ben Maimon, called Maimonides, also wrote that if a Jew converted to Christianity, he or she was no longer a Jew.
		Moses Isserles demanded a formal conversion back to Judaism for those who converted out of Judaism but who then wanted to return to Judaism.
		It was only after the experience of the Marranos, Jews who were forced by the Church to convert to Catholicism but who secretly practiced Judaism, that the Rabbis stated that one who converted involuntarily out of Judaism did not have to convert back to Judaism.

	Orthodox Judaism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the United States at the present time, there are a number of Orthodox congregational organizations such as, for example, Agudath Israel, the Orthodox Union, and the National Council of Young Israel— none of which can claim to represent even a majority of all Orthodox congregations.
		It may be said that Orthodox Judaism, as it exists today, is an outgrowth that stretches from the time of Moses, to the time of the Mishnah and Talmud, through the oral law, and rabbinic literature ongoing until the present time.
		The words of the Torah (Pentateuch) were spoken to Moses by God; the laws contained in this Written Torah, the Mitzvot, were given along with detailed explanations (the oral tradition) as to how to apply and interpret them.

		Moses Mendelssohn's life, in thought and action, uniquely conveyed "the pursuit of happiness" in the two decades before, and one decade after, the Declaration of Independence, when that evil was defeated.
		Moses Mendelssohn, born Sept. 6, 1729, grew up in a Dessau, Germany ghetto, in a time when Jewish communities were suffering from severe external limitations, but even more so, from the devastation that had swept across Europe during the irrationality of the Thirty Years War (1618-1648).
		Moses, privately, described the situation as being "in the position of a husband whose wife accused him of impotence and whose maid charged him with having made her pregnant."

	Shavuot foods span myriad cultures
		When Moses was receiving the Torah and descended, they ate dairy food rather than go through preparation of meat, which now required special rules of kashrut.
		Moses spent 40 days on Mount Sinai, thus we eat foods with milk.
		The source for the practice of dairy foods on the first day of Shavuot, however, is Rabbi Moses Isserles in the "Shulchan Aruch." The text is the authoritative code containing traditional rules of Jewish conduct, based on Talmud sources and rabbinical opinions.
