Judaism is…
? “A 4000 year old tradition with ideas
about what it means to be human and how
to make the world a holy place”
(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…
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 faith, Jews Believe…
? In one God, creator of the universe, personal
but non-corporeal
? In prophets of old – especially Moses, through
whom Torah was revealed to the Hebrew
people
? In Torah (first five books of the Bible),
containing religious, moral and social law which
guides the life of a Jew
? the Hebrew Bible does not include the New
Testament
As a people, Jews are…
? A nation in Diaspora (dispersed)
? 15 – 16 million in worldwide population
? United by a common heritage (an “ethnic” religion),
divided in contemporary practice:
? Orthodox:
? Modern
? Chasidic (Ultra Orthodox)
? Reformed (18th
century Germany)
? Conservative – moderates, response to reform
? Reconstructionalism (20th
century America)
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 and devotion to the one God
? The Temple and Temple rites
? Observance of Holy days
? Proper social relations between male and female, in business,
judicial rulings, etc.
? Thus sanctifying life, blessing it in every way
How does Judaism sanctify
life?
Life cycle celebrations:
? Bris – ritual circumcision, sign of the covenant
? Bar/Bat Mitzvah – full adult status and
responsibility within the religion
? Marriage - "Be fruitful and multiply" (Gen.
1:22)
? Death – funerals, mourning (sitting “Shiva”),
and memorials (“Yartzeits”)
How does Judaism sanctify
time?
The Jewish Holidays:
? High Holidays:
? Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year)
? Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement)
? Sukkot, the “Festival of Booths” (fall
harvest festival)
? Simchat Torah – celebrating Torah
? Chanukah, the “Festival of Lights”
More Holy Days…
? Purim (“Lots”) – a carnival (commemorates
events told in book of Esther)
? Pesach (“Passover”) – commemorates the
exodus from Egypt (events told in Exodus)
? Shavuot (“weeks,” Pentecost) –
commemorates receipt of Torah at Sinai
? Other, minor festivals
? Shabbat (Sabbath, 7th
day, on Saturday) –
the “Day of Rest”
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 not be divine. He 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”
What are Jews really concerned
about?
? Tikkun Olam - “repairing this world” through
justice and righteousness; through “deed, not
creed”
? The heart of Judaism is in the home and family,
social responsibility and doing Mitzvot (“good
deeds” based on God’s commandments)
? Through education and hard work we make our
lives, the lives of others, and the world, what
God intended it to be – Holy!
LeChaim!
To Life!
To Life!
