Frankists
Frankism was a heretical Sabbatean Jewish religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on the leadership of the Jewish Messiah claimant Jacob Frank, who lived from 1726 to 1791. Frank rejected religious norms and said that his followers were obligated to transgress as many moral boundaries as possible. At its height it claimed perhaps 50,000 followers, primarily Jews living in Poland, as well as in Central and Eastern Europe. Description Unlike traditional Judaism, which provides a set of detailed social, cultural, and religious norms and laws (''halakha'') that regulate many aspects of life of observant Jews, Frank claimed that "all laws and teachings will fall""The Collection of the Words of the Lord" by Jacob Frank, translated by Harris Lenowitz.

Jacob Frank
Jacob Joseph Frank ( he, יעקב פרנק; pl, Jakub Józef Frank; born Jakub Lejbowicz; 1726 – December 10, 1791) was a Polish Jews, Polish-Jewish religious leader who claimed to be the reincarnation of the self-proclaimed messiah Sabbatai Zevi (1626–1676) and also of the biblical patriarch Jacob. The Jewish authorities in Poland excommunicated Frank and his followers due to his heretical doctrines that included deification of himself as a part of a trinity and other controversial concepts such as neo-Carpocratian "purification through transgression". Frank arguably created a new denomination of Judaism, now referred to as Frankism, which incorporated some aspects of Christianity into Judaism. The development of Frankism was one of the consequences of the Jewish messiah, messianic movement of Sabbatai Zevi. This religious mysticism followed socioeconomic changes among the History of the Jews in Poland, Jews of Poland, History of the Jews in Lithuania, Lithuania and Histo ...
