The
Jewish religion is monotheistic,
for Jewish people believe
that God, as revealed through
Abraham, is the creator and
sole ruler of the universe.
The
Old Testament of the Bible,
particularly the first five
books, constitute the Torah.
The Torah, along with The
Ten Command- ments, which
Moses received from God on
Mount Sinai, emphasizes the
ethical behavior Jews should
have as true worshipers of
God.
Judaic
laws cover almost every aspect
of Jewish life.
