## In Jewish tradition

Interpretation: Sefer Yetzirah is described as a hard book that can confuse beginners, and tradition says it should be studied with a teacher. In the primary lessons: people counted in classes or schools; equal groups of students; in the USA «student» is used for all ages, in the UK younger ones are often called «pupils»; phrases «student council», «new student», «exchange student»

### Examples

- The various commentaries upon it are more apt to bewilder the student than to enlighten him. (Mordell, The Origin of Letters and Numerals according to Sefer Yetzirah (1914)) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/S/student/#x1)
