One of the first recorded monotheistic traditions, the religion and culture of the Jewish people are intricately bound together. The patriarch Abraham is considered the first Jew, holding to the tenets of strict monotheism and devotion to God only, however the religion is non-creedal, meaning that no one creed or dogma holds for all Jewish people. Much of Jewish tradition and early history has been recorded in sacred texts including the Hebrew Bible and the Talmud. Worship within the religion is incorporated into everyday activities and actions in addition to the celebration of sacred or holy holidays. ^ to top
The religion, and culture, of the Jews. Based on the ancient Hebrew beliefs and writings (referred to as the Old Testament by other religions), current doctrine is that if every member of the faith strives to live within God's law, he (God) will fulfill his promise (covenant), and send a messiah to restore the Jews to their rightful place as the ruling class. There are many divisions within the religion, but it is overall, a fluid belief system which evolves with time. The most interesting aspect of this flexibility, is the interpretation of the holy laws in ways which “outsmart” God: allowing for less strict adherence to rules which interfere with contemporary materialism.
