what is the little hat that the Jewish men wear called??

Answer 1

The proper term is Kippah. It is used to remind oneself that GOD is above you looking down on you so you should cover your head in respect to him.

A kippah (Hebrew: כִּפָּה, also kipah, kipa, kippa, plural kippot; Yiddish: יאַרמלקע, yarmlke, yarmulke, yarmulka, yarmelke, less commonly called kapel) is a thin, usually slightly-rounded cloth skullcap worn by observant Jews (usually men, but not always; see below). Kippot range in size from four inches to 9.5 inches (100 mm to 240 mm) or larger in diameter.

To hide our horns. ...just kidding. Seriously though, someone above me already nailed it, so I find it kind of weird that some jerk gave them a thumbs down. The simplest answer is that the kipah (that's the Hebrew word for it, "yarmulke" in Yiddish) is a physical reminder that something is always above us/with us (that is, the Creator, blessed is He). Nowadays, the yarmulke is significant in that it identifies the wearer as a Jew (although we're not the only ones who make use of skullcaps, and I've seen certain types of caps, just for example, worn by both Jews and Muslims), and, depending on where one is, the style of yarmulke may speak volumes about the Jew's religious or political leanings. More often then not, someone wearing a kipah of plain black cloth is likely to be more conservative in their outlook than one who wears one of the colorful knit variety (in America, where we wear whatever the hell we want, this doesn't necessarily always apply). I think the reason Hareidi Jews (the so-called "ultra" Orthodox) don't wear the knit ("s'ruga") type is because it became common for girls to knit them for their boyfriends, and of course, youngsters oughtn't be dating except as part of courtship leading directly to marriage. So that's a bit of trivia for you. Other than these modern-day implications of wearing this type of yarmulke or that type of yarmulke, the yarmulke has little to know religious significance in and of itself. That is to say, it's a rabbinic decree that all Jewish men should keep their heads covered at all times (there are exceptions of course... we don't have to wear them when swimming, for example), but as far as I can tell, the yarmulke really became popular because it's simple and lightweight. Any item that covers the head and can be seen from all sides, can fullfil the obligation. Sometimes I wear a baseball cap. Many Jews wear fedoras, or streimels (those big fur hats), usually with kipot (plural of kipah) underneath, though. I wear one underneath just in case I have to lose whatever hat I'm wearing over it. As if this answer wasn't long enough, I can give you a little cultural background in addition to the legal ruling, so if you're interested, read on. From what I understand, in ancient times (we're talking Greco-Roman), it was the prevailing custom that slaves covered their heads, and only free men went bare-headed. As servants of the Almighty, the humility of keeping our heads covered is an important part of our religious observance. In short, where in Western society today, people uncover their heads to show respect, Jews have always done the opposite for the same reason. I hope this helps.
