I wonder what convinced her family to forgo typical Jewish tradition of burial within a day or two or three?

I am trying to understand this. So if I am wrong, please point this out to me. The Jewish faith quickly buries their dead because to do otherwise would be an affront to God. Ruth Bader Ginsburg is the first woman honored with lying in state at the US Capitol. Would this circumstance possibly convince her family that her delayed burial is not an affront to God?

My guess is that Progressive Liberals worship at the altar of government, so this is OK.

I don't know if it is an offense against God, but is highly customary. 98.2% of the time. Other than a few people I knew who were cremated, every Jewish funeral I personally ever know of usually occurs by the second day (and rarely the third day). I'll research whether special circumstances apply.

"Burial should take place as soon after death as possible; if not the same (or next) day, as described variously in the Hebrew Bible, then at most a few days later and only to allow close relatives to gather to pay their respects. In America, many Jewish communities limit the delay to three days at most. Although it is undesirable to postpone a funeral, burials should never take place on the Sabbath or on Jewish holiday."

I don't think there is an exception to this custom. Nothing about delay for a famous or special person. I think that if I researched it more to see if there might be an exception for an exalted person, then I will look up whether there is delay allowed when, for example, a famous orthodox rabbi dies, and see if there is any analogy I can come up with...

This is from Chabad, a highly credible source:

It is a Biblical commandment to bury one's deceased immediately after passing, and it is forbidden to leave the deceased unburied overnight unless it is for his honor or to, obtain shrouds, arrange for a burial plot, gather family, etc.).

One may not put off the burial unnecessarily, for our sages state that the soul is in turmoil until the body is properly buried in the ground. Therefore, there needs to be a great sense of urgency to complete the burial as quickly as possible.

If the passing occurred in the morning, one should try to ensure that the deceased is prepared for burial and buried before dusk of the same day. If this is not possible, the burial should take place on the following day.

CB, it is easier when you cannot read arrogant, ignorant, dumb, haters posts. Truly that is approximately 0 here, but there are always exeptions. Everytime I read one of its posts I feel the need to respond so I seldom read its posts. Plus it is mean to disparage its posts as it obviously has very limited cognative ability and more than anything else deserves to be pitied. When it has idiot level IQ why do anything else.

I ignore them, most times, and wait until they burn-out or there is a consensus to push them away. Having said that, I am sure there are CBiders who don't like what I have to say- at the very least.
