halacha

n. complete body of Jewish religious law (includes Biblical laws, Talmudic laws, and laws formed during later times)

Halakha (Hebrew: הלכה ; alternate transliterations include Halakhah, Halocho, and Halacha), is the collective corpus of Jewish religious law, including biblical law (the 613 mitzvot) and later talmudic and rabbinic law as well as customs and traditions. Judaism classically draws no distinction in its laws between religious and ostensibly non-religious life. Hence, Halakha guides not only religious practices and beliefs, but numerous aspects of day-to-day life. Halakha is often translated as "Jewish Law," though a more literal translation might be "the path" or "the way of walking." The word is derived from the Hebrew root that means to go, to walk or to travel.
