It originated as the common religion of a small nation of Hebrew tribes and is now the oldest monotheistic religion still practiced today. According to Jewish tradition, God revealed himself to Abraham, the ancestor of the Jewish people. God told him that the Hebrews should believe in and worship only one God. Centuries later, the prophet Moses received divine instruction for how Jews should live and worship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The belief in one God is central to all forms of Judaism. The name of God in Hebrew is YHWH, often pronounced as Yahweh or Jehovah. God is often referred to by a euphemism, such as \u201cthe Lord,\u201d as the true name can be considered too sacred to use. While all Jews recognize that the ritual laws given in the Torah are divinely inspired, denominations differ in how strictly they adhere to them. Some who identify as Jewish do not follow ritual laws at all, but instead follow Jewish morality as interpreted from sacred texts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Torah is the foundational text of Judaism. It narrates the story of creation, the origins of the Jewish faith, and God\u2019s commandments for the Jewish people. The larger canon of sacred Tanakh writings and the religious commentary of the Talmud are also important texts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most Jewish congregations worship in a synagogue. In Reform Judaism, the synagogue may be referred to as a temple. Rabbi is the term used for spiritual leaders of Judaism. In Hasidic Judaism, the leader is instead called <em>rebbe<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to Rabbi Mark Cohn chant from the Torah Book of Genesis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2018\/12\/Genesis.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to Rabbi Mark Cohn chant from the Torah Book of Exodus:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2018\/12\/Exodus.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to Rabbi Mark Cohn chant from the Torah Book of Deuteronomy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2018\/12\/Deuteronomy.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-style-wfu-gray-pattern-bgrd is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-mimic-h-5-font-size\">Denominations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reform<\/strong> \u2013 Reacting to the Enlightenment in the 18th and 19th centuries CE, European Jews sought to adapt their religious laws to the new philosophies and social movements of their time. These changes emphasize the evolving nature and diversity of religious practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Orthodox<\/strong> \u2013 Orthodox practices also developed out of the Enlightenment, but as a reaffirmation of the ritual laws found in the Torah. Orthodox denominations vary on how much they participate in secular culture, and include Modern Orthodox, Haredi, and Hasidic congregations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conservative<\/strong> \u2013 This denomination formed in the United States by Jews who wanted to fully participate in American culture, but did not agree with the changes to Jewish law and traditions employed by Reform Judaism.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.67%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Color<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Colors are used to represent beliefs, traditions, and concepts in many religious traditions. Blue is the color of the heavens in Judaism. Because of this, it was adopted as one of the colors of the Israeli flag, and so has become synonymous with Jewish nationalism. In addition, the Torah describes traditional clothing adorned with blue-dyed tassels, as well as blue coverings for ritual objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>White was chosen as the exhibit\u2019s background color because it is meaningful to each of the five religions. In Judaism, white is the color of light, peace, intellect, and purity. It also symbolizes purity from sin. It is also one of the two colors of the Israeli flag.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5670 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-880x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Judaism Section of MOA Faith Exhibit\" width=\"880\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-880x1024.jpg 880w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-258x300.jpg 258w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-768x894.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-1320x1536.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-1760x2048.jpg 1760w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-970x1129.jpg 970w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-1400x1629.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/88\/2020\/04\/Judaism-1-597x695.jpg 597w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 880px) 100vw, 880px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-4 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-old-gold-color has-text-color has-mimic-h-5-font-size\">Learn about the featured objects below<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-5 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/A-edit2-J-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Cup\" class=\"wp-image-8629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/A-edit2-J-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/A-edit2-J-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/A-edit2-J.jpg 1150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><strong>A.

It contains the basis for Jewish religious laws and chronicles the history of the early Jewish people. Its recitation is a regular feature of religious services. Torahs are traditionally written on large scrolls made from specially prepared animal skins. This Torah is composed of two different scrolls mended together. The first part, the Book of Genesis, is likely from North Africa and dates to around 1800 CE. The rest is from Italy in the mid-1800s CE.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-14 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"scroll ornaments\" class=\"wp-image-8638\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/prod.wp.cdn.aws.wfu.edu\/sites\/417\/2022\/03\/J-edit-J-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><strong>J.
