The Basic Beliefs Of Judaism

Judaism and Christianity are both monotheistic religions, meaning they both believe in only one god.

In conclusion, Christians see God as one person in three persons while the Jews view God as one person. Both Christianity and Judaism have the same origin based on Abraham. The difference came when the Jews did not believe Jesus because He was not the expected Messiah. Christianity is the religion of most people. They believe in Jesus being the son of God and their savior. To sum this up, both religions believe in one God, share the Old Testament, and belief in life after death, heaven and hell. They observe different holiday days such as Lent, Easter, Yom Kippur, and share various prophet’s

Jesus: Unlike other monotheistic faiths, Christianity focuses a lot on the life of Jesus in the New Testament of the Bible. Christians also believe that they must go through something called Baptism which is a sacrament that is believed to “wash away” your Original Sin, or the sin all people are born with.

The Holy Bible is a book comprised of many parts, chapters, and verses. There are 66 books in the bible; the first 39 books are called the Old Testament. Written in Hebrew, it focuses on the prophecies of the coming savior. The remaining 27 books, the New Testament, are centered on the life of Jesus and his teachings. A similarity in the TaNaKh and the Holy Bible is the presence of the Torah. The Torah, in addition to being the first part of the TaNaKh, is actually the first 5 books of the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy). Because the Christians, unlike the Jews, had no official language, they wrote and spoke in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, or Latin. These holy books were important to these religions so their beliefs and traditions could be passed down to future generations.

Me: What is the holy book of your faith and how does it compare to others?

All three religions contain sacred texts that all contain “laws” or teachings. The Hebrew Bible (known as the Old Testament to Christians) is the foundation of Judaism. The first five books are called the Torah. The Torah means “the law” and the religious law, Halakhah, is taught in a separate book. However, the Torah, contains the teachings god has provided about himself, his purposes, and how people should obey him in every aspect of their life. The Bible is the sacred text of Christianity. It consists of the Old and New Testament.

Jesus: the holy book of my faith would be the bible because it has the teachings of the old testament and the teachings of me that consists of 27 books that is called the new testament. it tells the story of my life from start to finish and what is to come. it includes the gospel of matthew,mark,luke, and john. it compares to the other because its similar to both but different

The important sacred text of Christianity is the Bible. The Bible is primary sacred text of Christianity. The Christian Bible is made of two parts: the Old Testament, which is almost identical to the Jewish Bible; and the New Testament, a collection of Christian writings that includes biographies of Jesus and the apostles, letters to new churches, and an apocalyptic work. The Christian Bible is a collection of writings that Christians believe is of divine and human origin. The Bible is accepted by Christians as trustworthy for belief and practice. As well sometimes referred to as 'Scripture ' and 'Holy Scripture '. Christianity views the Bible as the basic source of belief and practice. The Bible is the central sacred text for

For Judaism, Torah- originally, the written record of the revelations as given to Moses on Mount Sinai. For Christianity, Bible -the holy book that combines the Old Testament (or the Hebrew Bible) with the history and teachings of Jesus as recorded by his disciples in the 27 books of the New Testament, including the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. For Islam, Qur'an -the sacred text of Islam that is considered to be the literal word of God, or Allah, as revealed to Muhammad through the angel Gabriel.

Followers of Judaism call their scriptures of holy books the Tanakh, the Talmud, and the Torah.

All three religions believe and worship the same God but they do it in different ways. Judaism happens to be the oldest religion today but they don’t have an official creed. They aim to teach you about God, the Messiah, human beings, and the universe which makes Jewish beliefs very important to them. But it is important to understand that being Jewish is more of a race and culture than it is a religion. Some Jewish people may have no interest in Judaism. Judaism has some similar beliefs with Islam and Christianity but they are more different then similar. Islam is the second largest religion in the world and they have 1.2 billion adherents. All of the adherents know about the “five pillars “of Islam which represent the framework for a responsible and good life. Islamic people believe that they are here on earth as God’s servants to create a moral social order. They believe it’s all a test for humans to prove if they can choose from right and wrong and make good decisions. There isn’t a certain sin not to do, it’s just trying not to fall under the temptations of all the bad things in life and God will be with you as long as you are attempting to be good and stay on the correct path. Christianity shows their faith differently than the other 2, they like to do baptisms when you are a baby or when you become Christian and become a believer. They like to have Sunday gatherings and read scriptures from the bible and have group prayer and singing.

Christianity is the world’s most popular and practiced religion. Christianity originated in the city of Jerusalem in present-day Israel, where Jesus ministered and was later crucified. Jerusalem and Bethlehem are considered the holiest places in Christianity. The founder of Christianity, Jesus Christ, was born in the small town of Bethlehem to a virgin named Mary, just a few miles southwest of Jerusalem.(MacCulloch ,36-37) The Christian religion is centered around the idea that Jesus is the son of God, the messiah. The religion itself is based on the life and teachings of Jesus. It is believed that Jesus was crucified and died for the sins of others, and that he rose from the dead. Christians study the Holy Bible and consider it to be a record of the relationship between God and mankind.. Christianity is considered to be an Abrahamic religion because Abraham is believed to be a religious

Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are all very similar religions but they have very unique characteristics about them that makes them different in their own way. I will tell you what they have similar and then I will tell you shortly how they differ under that similar characteristic. For example, they all believe in “one” founder although they don’t all believe in the “same” founder. Christianity believes in Jesus Christ, Islam believes in Muhammad, and for Judaism believes in Abraham. Each of these religions believe in one god, although their natures of them may be different. For example, Christians believe that their one God exists in three distinct persons which are the father, son, and the Holy Spirit, while Muslims believes in strict monotheism, and the Jews believes in one God which we commonly known as Yahweh. They each have Holy books they reference too, but they are all unique and revealed differently. For Christians, they

Judaism originated a very long time ago, it is a part of the Bronze Age Polytheistic Ancient Semitic religions. The Jewish calendar goes back more than 5000 years, most scholars date the beginning of the religion of the Israelites to the known founder, Abraham, whose life is generally dated around 2000 to 1800 B.C.E. Abraham came to believe that the universe was the works of a single creator, and taught this to other believers. Therefore, Judaism is the first recorded religion to advocate monotheism, meaning there is only one God. Both Christianity and Islam found some of their roots in Judaism, about 2,000 years after Abraham, Jesus was born into Judaism. Then after Jesus, Muhammad could trace his ancestry back to Abraham. Judaism has three essential parts the written Torah, the recognition of Israel, which are the descendants of Abraham, as uniquely holy people chosen by God, and also it is a requirement that Israel lives in accordance with God's laws as it’s said in the Torah.

Christianity is the religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Most followers of Christianity, called Christians, are members of one of three major groups--Roman Catholic, Protestant, or Eastern Orthodox. These groups have different beliefs about Jesus and His teachings. But all consider Jesus central to their religion. Most Christians believe God sent Jesus into the world as the Savior. Christianity teaches that humanity can achieve salvation through Jesus.
