Extractions: Yukaghirs visit the guestbook or mail comments to the webmaster Self-designation and origin . The people call themselves karai (pl. karailar ). The designation has been linked to an Old Hebrew verbal noun qáráím 'readers' (of Holy Scripture), which would indicate that the members of this small Turkic group are adherents of a minor branch of Judaism. In an effort to distinguish between the Karaim and the Karaite , some scholars use the designation ' East European Karaim ' for the former. In some sources the Karaim have been recorded as the Tatars (this is sometimes used by the Karaim themselves), or as the Kirghiz or the Jews. It is important to note that as recently as the beginning of this century literate Karaim priests regarded Hebrew as the Karaim language. Hebrew is the language in which sacred texts were written and it is still used during services of the sect in Egypt, Turkey and Israel. Religion has played an important part in forming the Karaim people. Since the 8th century the Karaims have belonged to a sect of Karaism initiated by Anan ben David. This is a reformed Judaism which defends the religious doctrine as it is written in the Bible and rejects the Talmud, the oral tradition. From the 8th to the 10th centuries the Karaims were subjected to the rule of Khazar Kagan. It is recorded in the 13th century that the Karaim congregation practised in Solkhat, the capital city of the Crimean Tatars. In the 14th to the 16th centuries a small number of the Karaim people from Middle Eastern countries were absorbed by the Crimean Karaim.

http://www.jewish-heritage.org/prep24.htm

Extractions: ON THE HISTORY OF THE KARAITE COMMUNITY IN DERAZHNIA. The only Karaite community in Podolia existed in the town of Derazhnia of Letichevsky powet. However, the sources on its history are very scarce. It is known that the community was formed in the late 1500-s - early 1600-s , it was harmed hardly by Chmielnicki and, obviously, it did not revive. At least, in the documents of the 18-th century the Karaites in Derazhnia are not mentioned There is a manuscript in the Russian National Library (St. Petersburg), which includes a poetic narrative about destruction of the Karaite community of Derezhnia by Bogdan Chmielnicki's army. The MS' number in the catalogue Eâp.

http://www.truthorfables.com/Day_of_Atonement_of_the_Karaite.htm

Extractions: the Karaite Jews in 1844 By Robert K. Sanders The Karaite Jews has now confirmed that the "Day of Atonement" in 1844 was late September and not Late October. Their research is presented further down in this topic, but first we need to preface why this is important. Why is the Karaite date of the Day of Atonement important? Seventh-day Adventists claim that in 1844, a very small Jewish sect called the "Karaites," used a different calendar and thus celebrated the Day of Atonement (10th of Tishri) on October 22, one month later than the Rabbinical/Orthodox Jews who did so on September 23. Thus the entire Seventh-day Adventist teaching regarding the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14, the Investigative Judgment, the Great Disappointment, and Jesus' entrance into the Most Holy Place, hinges only on the words of their prophet Ellen White and on their claim Karaites celebrated the Day of Atonement on October 22 in 1844. If either of these assertions is incorrect, then Seventh-day Adventism is in serious theological trouble.

Most of the prayers are read in responsive succession by the Hazzan and the Qahal (congregation). There are differences between weekday mode, the mode for the Sabbath, and the mode for lamentation. The mode for lamentation differs from the weekday mode not only in its intervallic patterns but also in its much wider melodic range. The Hazzan varies the melody according to the number of syllables and his way of stressing important words. The alternating response of the congregation remains unchanged. A few climactic sections are rendered as metric choral songs, such as Shirat HaYam
