Best Answer

The religion of Judaism prohibits the eating of certain types of food, such as anything derived from a pig (although there are lots of other dietary restrictions). An observant Jew would not marry a person who was not also a Jew.There are some restrictions that are in effect only at certain times. Religious observance of the Sabbath means not working on Saturday. During the holiday of Passover, Jews are required to avoid eating leavened bread (but can eat unleavened crackers).

Note that there is no agency that enforces these rules, and not all Jews follow them. Some Jews are more observant than others.

Not all Jews are religious. Those Jews who do choose to live their lives in accordance with the Torah avoid violating its "do not" commands.

Some examples of things prohibited according to Judaism include:

-- murder

-- robbery

-- fraud

-- adultery

-- cheating

-- false testimony in court

-- cruelty to animals

-- violating the Sabbath

-- refusing to support the poor

-- ignoring the dietary (kosher) laws

-- refusing to assist travelers

-- refusing to visit the sick

-- not honoring one's parents

-- hanging out with a bad crowd

-- daydreaming about your neighbor's wife

-- making a day laborer wait until the next day for his pay.

Jews cannot violate any of the 613 Commandments proscribed by God and as interpreted by the Rabbis. The biggest restrictions concern the people with whom you cannot have sexual relations or marriage, the types of labors one can do on Shabbat (Saturday), and Kashrut (the dietary laws concerning what a Jew can eat). There are a significant number of things that a Jew cannot do in addition to the specific examples. If you wish for a more complete picture, search for the 613 commandments and that will give you a clearer idea of what is permitted and what is prohibited.

Can Jewish people use telephone on Saturdays?

Firstly, in this question there is a misunderstanding of the 'day' of the Jewish Sabbath. Saturday is commonly believed among non-Jews to be the Sabbath. This is incorrect. The Jewish days begin at sundown. The Jewish Sabbath begins at the start of the seventh day of the week. Therefore, the Jewish Sabbath begins Friday at sundown and continues until one hour after sundown on Saturday. If one lives in a city where the sun sets at 3 p.m. on Friday, then the Sabbath begins at 3 p.m. on Friday and continues until 4 p.m. Saturday. If the sun sets at noon on Friday...; etc. Now, to answer the question. Jewish people cannot use a phone (to receive a call or to make a call) on the Sabbath. Once the Sabbath has passed, yes, a Jew can use the phone.
