A 'haverkadisha' is a Jewish burial society responsible for the preparation of deceased individuals for burial according to Jewish law and customs. Members of the society, known as 'chevra kadisha,' perform ritual washing (tahara) and dressing of the body, ensuring it is treated with respect and dignity. The practices emphasize the sanctity of life and death in Judaism, reflecting the community's commitment to honoring the deceased and supporting grieving families.
