Abstract
The text is an attempt to look into Kafka's work and thinking, in its natural relationship to itself at first glance, contradictory (only Jewish) traditions. On the one hand there is the world of religious, legal and social rules and norms, on the other hand there is a tendency to relativize "regulations", connected with an emphasis on co-subject interpersonal relationships and dogmas unregulated religious experience.
The first part of the study focuses mainly on the questions of Martin Buber, the second part - especially on the basis of texts by Josef Solovějčik - focuses on a special Jewish relationship to law and to the rules in general.
