Talk:Mesiras nefesh

Martyrdom
I think that this topic would be better severed by being merged into Martyr. At least a rename to Jewish view of Martyrdom (Naming conventions (use English)). Jon513 18:23, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry, but I don't agree. While Mesiras nefesh can involve martyrdom, but need not, it is more directly related to the 613 mitzvot and is part of an integrated hierarchy of articles. BlueValour 18:43, 5 July 2006 (UTC)


 * As far as the idea that there are only three thing that Jew need to die for - that should be in Martyr. As far as an idea that a person should work hard, doesn't need to be anywhere as it is only a idiom with no significant meaning. Jon513 18:53, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * This concept is illustrating the importance of three of the commandments; it is not directly linked to martyrdom. As I said, it is in the right place. BTW the author is still developing this article. BlueValour 18:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Have created a renamed article to meet naming conventions. BlueValour 21:07, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
