Jewish heretics (minim, from minuth, Hebrew for "heresy") are Jewish individuals (often historically, philosophers) whose works have, in part or in whole, been condemned as heretical by significant persons or groups in the larger Jewish community based on the classical teachings of Rabbinic Judaism and derived from halakha.

They are also known as Karaites as seen among the Notzrim.
