Jewish funerals, overall, are much less expensive and skip many of the things that funerals from other religions might think of. No viewings, embalming is frowned upon unless it is legally required, simple wooden caskets are preferred, flowers are seen as frivolous, and most funerals are only about 30 minutes at the absolute most.flex wood wrote:Wouldn't it be pretty expensive to throw together a funeral in a day?
In Judaism, it is preferred to get the deceased buried as soon as possible, and viewings are considered taboo.

- It may sound pathetic but in 15 years I have only spent 5 nights away from my wife in total. We are incredibly close and I feel incomplete without her being here. My kids are scared and so am I, I don't want to lie to them and tell them how everything is fine, when I don't know. Really shitty day.
