Frum
Frum ( yi, פֿרום, , religious', 'pious) is a word that describes Jewish religious devotion. The term connotes the observance of Jewish religious law in a way that often exceeds its bare requirements. This not only includes the careful study of Torah, daily prayers, observing Shabbat and kashrut, and performing deeds of loving-kindness, but also many more customs and '' khumrot'' (prohibitions or obligations in Jewish life that exceed the requirements of Halakha). The term ''frum'' contrasts with ''frei'' ( yi, פֿרײַ, , free), which describes Jews who are secular or practice non-Orthodox observance, or "free from keeping the… commandments." Meaning ''Frum'' can be used in a negative sense for 'hypocritically pious', 'holier-than-thou', 'sanctimonious'; or in a positive sense for 'pious', 'devout', 'God-fearing', and 'upright'. The phrase ''frum and ehrlich'' captures the positive connotations of these words, to mean roughly 'upright' or 'righteous' (see ''tzadik''). ...
