    Jews aren’t buried standing. Jewish burial customs are primarily meant to keep the process simple, dignified and equal. No matter how poor, wealthy, respected or disliked, all members of the community are supposed to receive the same funeral: a plain wooden coffin, a shroud and the same funeral prayers. There’s also a voluntary group, called the Khevrah Kadishah (‘sacred society’), that cleans the body and guards it before burial to protect it from desecration.
