The Musar movement is a Jewish ethical, educational and cultural movement. It developed in the 19th century in Eastern Europe, particularly among Orthodox Lithuanian Jews.
The Hebrew term Musar (מוּסַר), is from the book of Proverbs 1:2. It means moral conduct, instruction or discipline. The movement made important contributions to Jewish ethics and Musar literature.
