Hebrews and aryans are two of the world's major religion. Hebrews was established in 1486 C.E. and located in Jerusalem. The Hebrews is known today as Judaism, which is one of the oldest regions on earth that has a written history extending over 3,000 years ago. Aryans were said to have been established around 1200 B.C, during the vedic age and originally located on the steppes of southern asia and central asia. Aryans religion that they used was Hinduism. Although Judaism and Hinduism both are monotheistic, provided belief structure for other religions, and had sacred text, but the same thing that formed similarities in the religions made differences after going in-depth.

As the classical period emerged, religion as well as other cultural influences had been some of the main aspects of much of how history was shaped during this time period. Many religions had sprung up during this time period such as Judaism, which was a monotheistic religion and had developed with the codification of the Hebrew scriptures. This religion reflected the cultures of different regions such as Mesopotamia. The Jewish states were conquered by the Babylonians, Assyrians, and the Romans during this time period as well. Another religion important to this time period is the Vedic religion Hinduism, which had originated in India. This religion was

An important part of the ancient world and too its people was religion. Some religions were rather similar in some ways and some were vastly different. The religion of ancient Hebrews and Buddhism have many similarities and have many differences. The Hebrews believed in one God, also known as monotheism, and have come to have influenced both Christianity and Islam.
The origins of the Hebrews can be traced back to Abraham, who the Bible depicts as the patriarch of Judaism. Yahweh promises to Abraham and his descendants the land of Canaan, saying “[t]o your offspring I will give this land” (Gen. 12:7-8). Abraham lived around the year 4000 B.C.E., and the Bible claims he lived in Ur, an ancient city in southern Mesopotamia, on a former branch of the Euphrates river. Archaeologists estimated the size of Ur to have been around 25 acres. The Bible described Abraham’s journey from Ur to
Approximately 1800 B.C., early Hebrew religion in Asia area Since humans existed on the Earth, they soon realized that they were too weak to stand the nature. When the natural disasters such as floods, tornadoes, and earthquakes happened, humans immediately related to the superpowers that might trigger them. They believed in multiple Gods and sought protection from their deities, and that was how polytheism gradually formed. Polytheism was practiced among the Jewish up until God revealed Himself and passed the covenants to Abraham at Mount Sinai. Abrahamic religions are known for practicing monotheism

Judaism was founded by Abraham, although Jews trace their history all the way back to Moses. Judaism history, beliefs, and traditions were recorded in the Hebrew bible as early as the 8th century B.C. and is considered one of the oldest religions that still exists today. There are 3 main branches of Judaism: Orthodox; Conservative; and Reform. Orthodox focuses on the traditional teachings of the Jewish law, while Conservative Jews allow a little bit of change to help them adapt to society. Then Reform Judaism believes that there should be a lot of change and adaptation to the modern world today. Additionally, Judaism is one of the three Abrahamic Religions. The Abrahamic Religions include Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. There are approximately 14 million people who identify themselves as Jews. Most of them live in the U.S. and Israel. The state of Israel was founded in 1948. Jews are the descendants of an ancient people called the Hebrews. The Hebrews’ country fell to a series of conquerors and the Jews scattered across the world. Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt and they wandered the wilderness for 40 years, trying to get to the promised land,
The religion of the Aryans, or Vedic, and the religion of the Hebrews, or Judaism, are very similar. Judaism likely borrowed some ideas from Vedic.

At first glance, the idols of Egypt and the God of Israel appear utterly different, similarities bleed through as we investigate the history of the Egyptians and the Israelites. Some differences leap out. The Egyptians were polytheistic, and the Israelites were monotheistic. The Egyptian gods had human traits and could die, whereas God was fully God and could not die. To get to heaven, the Egyptians believed they needed to do good works, but the Israelites believed they needed faith. Looking deeper, we see some similarities. Both groups of people worshipped their gods. Also, the creators spoke through priests and prophets. The last major similarity is that each god had their own group of chosen people. The gods of the Egyptians had similar and different characteristics to the God of Israel.
Judaism being the oldest out of these three dominant religions was developed in the “third millennium BCE” (130). Canaan is where the Hebrews first prospered, until around 1500 BCE. At this time a famine struck, and influenced the Jewish people to move to Egypt. Egypt was lead by the Hyksos, which shared languages and cultural beliefs with the Hebrews. In Egypt “the Hebrews thrived over the next few centuries, until the Egyptian overthrew the Hyksos and enslaved the Hebrews” (130). At that time Moses (a man lead by God), rallied the Hebrews and helped them escape the slavery they endured in Egypt.

Although we do not know the exact time that Hinduism began, it is believed to be over 4,000 years old. There have been overlapping civilizations in India that may have molded the religion into what it is now (Kinnard 1). Around 2,000 B.C.E., located near the great Indus River, the Indus Valley Civilization, who worshipped many goddesses, may have been the very beginning of the shaping of Hinduism. Near the end of the Indus Valley Civilization around 1,500 B.C.E., a new society surfaced in India. Believed to be brought by the central Asian Aryans, the Vedic religion began (Kinnard). The Aryans’ practices included the sacrifice of animals and other offerings to their gods into a sacred fire. The gods they worshipped were mainly gods of nature such as the fire god and the plant god (flood). This era was the time of the Vedas, which are scriptures describing rituals to please the gods (Kinnard). Later, around 1,000 B.C.E., priests called Brahmins began to reject the materialistic ways of the Vedic tradition and began to adopt practices
