Hebrew Monotheism, Zoroastrianism, Vedic Objective: SWBAT compare and contrast the three early religions. E.Q. – What are the similarities and differences between the three early religions? Early Religions: Hebrew Monotheism, Zoroastrianism, Vedic

Hebrew Monotheism Ancient roots of Judaism Judaism originated in the Middle East over 3500 years ago Hebrew monotheism was the first major religion to believe in one god. Monotheism expanded and adapted over the next millennia, and is now the dominant type of religion across the world. Moses = religious leader, most important prophet in Judaism. Channel between Hebrews and God Hebrew Monotheism

Zoroastrianism is one of the world's oldest monotheistic religions. It was founded by the Prophet Zoroaster (or Zarathustra) in ancient Iran approximately 3500 years ago. For 1000 years Zoroastrianism was one of the most powerful religions in the world. Zoroaster placed less emphasis on ritual worship, instead focusing on the central ethics of 'Good Words, Good Thoughts and Good Deeds'. Zoroastrianism

Basic Beliefs: Misconceptions: Zoroastrians believe there is one God called Ahura Mazda (Wise Lord) and He created the world. Ahura Mazda revealed the truth through the Prophet, Zoroaster. Zoroastrians traditionally pray several times a day. Zoroastrians worship communally in a Fire Temple or Agiary. Dualism: Good v. Evil Zoroastrians are not fire-worshippers, as some Westerners wrongly believe. Zoroastrians believe that the elements are pure and that fire represents God's light or wisdom.
