    It is true that Jews must be buried as quickly as possible (about three days allows relatives to travel to a funeral). Judaism believes in the ‘holiness’ of the person, living or dead. So, after a person dies, someone must sit with them and ‘keep them company.’ It honors the dead person by burying them as quickly as possible. The person is kept whole so that they are whole when the Messiah comes and raises everyone.
