Question 2.18: What is a "Torah Jew?"
Answer:
The expression "the Torah world" and "Torah Jew" tends to be used
primarily by the "yeshivish" world, as other groups prefer other
buzzwords. But many other Jews object to the term, as they also claim
to be true to Torah principles in their practice.
In general, if someone dislikes a particular term, switch to another
term which conveys the same information.
