What’s this?

Judaism is… “A 4000 year old tradition…” (Rabbi Harold Kushner, To Life) A “covenant relationship” between God and the Hebrew people A celebration and sanctification of life A faith, a people, a way of life…

As a faith, Jews Believe… In one God, creator of the universe In prophets of old testament In Torah (first five books of the Bible), the Hebrew Bible does not include the New Testament

How is Judaism related to Christianity? Judaism predates Christianity – it is the foundation of Christianity but is not a part of it Jesus was Jewish, as were his followers and the Apostles Jews do not believe that Jesus was anything more than a good and wise man who lived and died 2000 years ago – Jews still await their messiah

The Jewish messiah would be a political figure who restores the Hebrew monarchy and causes peace to reign on Earth Jews are not concerned about salvation and the “world to come”

As a people, Jews are… A nation in Diaspora (dispersed) 15 – 16 million in worldwide population United by a common heritage (an “ethnic” religion), yet divided into 4 forms: –Orthodox: –Reformed –Conservative –Messianic

4 Types of Jews Orthodox Jews – Strictly obey all laws, especially dietary laws and Sabbath Laws Conservative Jews – Less strict than Orthodox yet do keep most laws Reform Jews – Believe in following Jewish principles not Jewish laws Messianic Jews – The only Jews that believe Jesus is the son of God. Retain Jewish forms of worship.

Kosher Dietary Laws No Pork or Shell Fish – Leviticus 11:7-10 No Meat or Dairy Products eaten together – Exodus 22:19 Meat and dairy are served in different dishes. Meat and dairy dishes are washed separately.

Sabbath Laws No work of any kind is allowed No travel can occur No using the telephone No writing No touching money No posing for pictures ETC.

A 4000 year old tradition… The Patriarchs: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (“Israel”) – origins of the Hebrew people (more than 3800 years ago) Enslaved in ancient Egypt and freed by Moses (more than 3300 years ago) Hebrew monarchy in the “Promised Land” (The Land of Israel), ends 6th century BCE

As a way of life, Judaism is based on… 613 commandments found in Torah (“Written Law”) Talmud (“Oral Law”) – commentary of ancient rabbis that elaborates on how to apply God’s Law in everyday life through: –Dietary rules (Kashrut/Kosher) –Dress and other symbols –Prayer to the one God –The Temple and Temple rites –Observance of Holy days

How does Judaism sanctify life? Life cycle celebrations: Bar/Bat Mitzvah – full adult status and responsibility within the religion

How does Judaism sanctify time? The Jewish Holidays: High Holidays: –Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year) –Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) Chanukah, the “Festival of Lights”
