Tinok shenishba (Hebrew: תינוק שנשבה, literally, "captured infant") is a term that refers to a Jew who sins as a result of having been raised without sufficient knowledge and understanding of Judaism.[1][2] The term originates from a theoretical discussion in the Talmud regarding a Jew who was kidnapped by Gentiles as an infant and therefore sins inadvertently, for lack of halakhic knowledge. In contemporary Orthodox Judaism, its status is widely applied to unaffiliated Jews or Jews who were educated in modern Jewish denominations.
