What is customary among Ashkenazi Jews for naming children?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The naming of a Jewish child is a most profound spiritual moment. The Sages say that naming a baby is a statement of her character, her specialness, and her path in life. For at the beginning of life we give a name, and at the end of life a "good name" is all we take with us. (see Talmud – Brachot 7b; Arizal – Sha'ar HaGilgulim 24b)

Further, the Talmud tells us that parents receive one-sixtieth of prophecy when picking a name. An angel comes to the parents and whispers the Jewish name that the new baby will embody.

Yet this still doesn't seem to help parents from agonizing over which name to pick!

So how do we choose a name? And why is the father's name traditionally not given to a son – e.g. Jacob Cohen Jr., Isaac Levy III? Can a boy be named after a female relative? Can the name be announced before the Bris?

Jewish Customs

Naming a Jewish baby is not only a statement of what we hope she will be, but also where she comes from.

Ashkenazi Jews have the custom of naming a child after a relative who has passed away. This keeps the name and memory alive, and in a metaphysical way forms a bond between the soul of the baby and the deceased relative. This is a great honor to the deceased, because its soul can achieve an elevation based on the good deeds of the namesake. The child, meanwhile, can be inspired by the good qualities of the deceased – and make a deep connection to the past. (Noam Elimelech - Bamidbar) from http://www.aish.com/jl/l/b/48961326.html

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is FALSE that Jeremy Bentham and the rest of the utilitarians believe that the principle of utility should be applied to humans only, excluding the animals.

This is evident when Jeremy Bentham and other utilitarians argued that Principal of Utility is based on the belief that the action of individuals is good in as much it leads to the happiness of the individual involved.

And the application of the principle of utility to animals (other than human) is sufficient only if during the exploitation of animals, the animals experience happiness more than pain.

8090 [49]

Answer:

Knowledge

Explanation:

Knowledge engineering is done in the field of artificial intelligence (AI)  that attempts to imitate the judgment and conduct of a human master in a given field and help with issues identified with their customized field of information.

A knowledge engineer is an expert whose work is to build up advanced logic into PC frameworks so as to attempt to simulate cognitive tasks of higher level and decision-making in human beings.

Thus a knowledge engineer provides the details of the entire knowledge associated with the built technology.

Therefore, a knowledge engineer tries to find to find out the 'rule of thumbs' thus replacing the task of humans by a computer.
