Haredi or Chareidi Judaism is the most theologically conservative form of
Orthodox Judaism. A follower of Haredi Judaism is called a Haredi (Haredim in the plural). Haredi (חֲרֵדִי) is derived from charada (fear, anxiety), which could be interpreted as "one who trembles in awe of God" (cf. Isaiah 66:2,5).Haredi Jews, like other
Orthodox Jews, consider their belief system and religious practices to extend in an unbroken chain back to
Moses and the giving of the
Torah on
Mount Sinai. As a result, they consider non-Orthodox denominations to be unjustifiable deviations from authentic Judaism, both because of other denominations' doubts concerning the divine revelation of the Written and Oral Torah, and because of their rejection of
halakhic (or Jewish legal) precedent as binding.
