Why is the kaddish used to separate parts of the service?

No. Kaddish is said AFTER prayer and special holidays.


Who are the kaddish?

The kaddish are not a who. The Kaddish is a family of related prayers in the Jewish liturgy. Technically, these are doxologies, that is, short prayers of praise that are used to punctuate longer services, dividing or marking the ends of sections of a service. There is the long Kaddish, the short Kaddish, the Kaddish after study, and the mourner's Kaddish. The latter is a relatively short Kaddish reserved to be said by mourners (if any are present).

Kaddish is said at the end (and at several points in the middle) of every prayer service. Kaddish is also often recited at the end of a Torah class or a Siyum--the completion of one of the books of the Torah. Often a bar mitzvah boy will "make" a siyum and kaddish will be recited.

What is the historic basis for the hatzi kaddish service?

There is no "hatzi kaddish service." The Kaddish is a family of related prayers in the Jewish liturgy, all said in Aramaic. Because they are in Aramaic, we can date them to during or after the Babylonian Exile because that's when Aramaic seems to have become the language of the Jews. And, the kaddishes were established by the time of the Rabbinic sages (the Tannaim or Pharisees) whose sayings make up the Mishnah. Technically, these are doxologies, that is, short prayers of praise that are used to punctuate longer services, dividing or marking the ends of sections of a service. There is the long Kaddish, the short Kaddish (known as the chatzi Kaddish in Hebrew/Aramaic), the Kaddish after study, and the mourner's Kaddish. The short Kaddish is used at several points in the traditional liturgy, so there is clearly no single service it is associated with.


Why was the kaddish an unusual prayer?

Most of the Jewish liturgy is traditionally said in Hebrew, although Jewish law permits prayer in a person's native language. The various versions of the Kaddish are in Aramaic, the dominant language of the Jewish community 2000 years ago. In the Jewish liturgy, the Kaddish serves as a Doxology, that is, a liturgical punctuation mark at the end of each section of the service, separating it from what follows.A second unusual feature of the Kaddish is that the most well known variant outside the Jewish community, the Mourner's Kaddish, is said by mourner in memory of the dead, but does not once mention death or mourning. It is purely a prayer of praise.

Prayer for the deads jewish term?

The main Jewish prayers for the dead are Yizkor and Hashkava (also known as El Malei Rahamim). Kaddish is not a prayer for the dead (though laypersons often call it that). It is a praise of God, said by mourners as a good deed for the deceased person's merit.
