Rabbinar
Rabbinar, òg skrive rabbin, rabbi, rebbi og ribbi, er ein tittel som blir bruka om jødiske lærde. Det varierer noko mellom ulike retningar av jødedommen kva som ligg i denne tittelen — frå hebraisk lærar («ribbí» eller «rebbí») blant spanske og portugisiske sefardím via religionslærar og dommar i typisk askenasisk ortodoks jødedom til forrettar i synagogen og sjelesørgar i liberale retningar av amerikansk jødedom.
Om ordet
Sjølve ordet kjem frå misjnaisk hebraisk רִבִּי med uttalen [ribbī] eller [rebbī]. Ordet vart lånt inn i gresk i forma ραββι og vart spreidd med kristne biblar i forma rabbi. I nyare tid har særleg askenasisk jødedom omvokalisert det hebraiske ordet til רַבִּי [rabbī].
