Judaism (from the Latin Iudaismus, derived from the Greek Ioudaïsmos, and ultimately from the Hebrew ?????, Yehudah, "Judah";[1][2] in Hebrew ????????, Yahadut) refers to sets of beliefs and practices originating in the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh, and explored and explained in later texts such as the Talmud. Jews consider Judaism to be the expression of the covenantal relationship God developed with the Children of Israel—originally a group of around a dozen tribes claiming descent from the Biblical patriarch Jacob and later the Jewish people.[3] According to most branches, God revealed his laws and commandments to Moses on Mount Sinai in the form of both the Written and Oral Torah.[4] However, Karaite Judaism maintains that only the Written Torah was revealed,[5] and liberal denominations such as Humanistic Judaism may be nontheistic.[6]

Judaism claims a historical continuity spanning well over 3000 years. It is one of the oldest monotheistic religions,[7] and the oldest to survive into the present day.[8][9] Its texts, traditions and values have inspired later Abrahamic religions, including Christianity, Islam and the Baha'i Faith.[9][10] Many aspects of Judaism have also directly or indirectly influenced secular Western ethics and civil law.[11]

In 2007, the world Jewish population was estimated at 13.2 million, 41% of whom lived in Israel[12] and 40% of whom lived in the United States.[13] This figure includes both ethnic Jews and converts to Judaism—much as some countries consider citizens to be either native-born children or naturalized immigrants, a Jew is defined as anyone with either the relevant Jewish parentage or a Jewish conversion. In more conservative branches such as Orthodox Judaism, conversion entails a full commitment to Jewish observance. At least in principle, these branches expect a similar level of commitment from every Jew.[14][15] Historically, special courts enforced Jewish law; today, these courts still exist but the practice of Judaism is mostly voluntary.[16] Authority on theological and legal matters is not vested in any one person or organization, but in the sacred texts and the many rabbis and scholars who interpret these texts.[17]

Judaism is a monotheistic religion based upon principles and ethics embodied in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh), as further explored and explained in the Talmud and other texts. According to Jewish tradition, Judaism begins with the Covenant between God and Abraham.

1. Obama Whitewashes Islam Christianity and Judaism at Fort Hood
November 13, 2009

Yesterday President Barack Hussein Obama spoke at the memorial service at Fort Hood allegedly brought about by the Fort’s Jihadi Shrink Major Nidal Malik Hasan. The country is now gagging on the fact that both the President and the Jihadi shrink share the same name. It appears now that the Fort Hood massacre was masterminded by Imam Anwar al-Awlaki, on direct orders from Allah through Prophet Muhammad according to the plain meaning of the words of the Koran and Hadith. Yesterday at Fort Hood, the President of the United States of America, the son of a Muslim father and a non believer Chri... (read more)

2. The unique qualities of the Holy Land
November 01, 2009

The sacred place located in the Middle East, is known for its spiritual connection to the three common religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam. People all over the world travel to the Holy Land to visit its unique and sacred places in order to experience the spiritual and biblical connection, or just to be impressed by its beauty. The Mount of Olives, located in Jerusalem, is a special place mentioned in the old and new testimony which is named because of all the olive trees growing in it. Olive trees grow only in few places in the world. The spiritual connection of olive trees and the b... (read more)

3. Aravot Smashing
October 16, 2009

In Honor of the Holy Breslaver’s Yahrtzeit Xerxes was furious. His engineers had constructed a bridge across the Hellespont in 480 BC, and an act of God had taken out the bridge. Xerxes blamed both the sea and the hapless engineers: “As soon as the strait had been bridged, a great storm fell upon it and cut the cables and broke them up. Xerxes commanded that the sea should be punished by lashing, branding, and cursing the water, and that the men who had supervised the bridging of the Hellespont should have their heads cut off.” (Herodotus, Histories 7.35) I know exactly how Xerx...

4. Neighborhoods in the Sky: Succot
October 12, 2009

My wife and I turned onto 26th street, between 6th and 7th, the New York City area known as ‘The Plant District’, and strange things began to happen. Storeowners ran outside and began to pull their security gates down, closing their stores. Others were rushing to cover all the plants on the sidewalk with sheets and blankets. People were staring at us with hatred and fear. We could hear strangers whispering, “Killer!” My wife’s reputation precedes her. People know what happens to plants in our home. The situation was ironic because we were looking for some artificial trees that could survi... (read more)

5. The Security of The Succah
October 08, 2009

The twelve-hour drive from Toronto for our annual Succot visit with my grandparents left me bruised, battered, and drained by all the fights my sister began with me. (I, of course, never started a fight.) We arrived in 1968, post riots Baltimore. Although I did not see burned out cars on my grandparents’ block, things were obviously different. There were no children playing on the street. There were bars on the windows of all the homes. My first direct experience with the new realities was when I wanted to cross the gravel path that separated my grandparents’ backyard from the Yeshiva gro... (read more)

6. So Who Invented God Anyway?
October 03, 2009

When we look back through antiquity it all gets a little wonky, but there seems to be a consensus. As a matter of fact, many of the middle eastern religions such as Judaism and Christianity can trace their roots directly back to this man. Even his pictures - pale face, brown beard, looking up toward heaven, resembles very closely the pictures representing Christ these days. But perhaps it’s better not to look too closely at our religious heritages (myths and legends from thousands of years ago), because the closer we look, the more uncertain and troubling it can become to a semi-believ...

7. Succot Contradictions
October 02, 2009

I love water. I love the ocean. I love waterfalls. I love to go whitewater rafting. I love to swim. I love the Mikvah – Ritual Bath. I hate water. I hate finding water on the floor of my study. I hate when our garage is flooded. I hate having my clothes soaked by rain. I was listening to a tape of Rav Soloveitchik zt”l as I was walking to shul. It was pouring rain, but I was so moved by the power of his thought and words, that I simply stood on the sidewalk with tears streaming down my face, feeling that I was being showered with the joy of Torah. I loved each drop of rain. I treasur... (read more)

8. Timeless: Precious Moments
October 01, 2009

The Chafetz Chaim had an interesting approach to the Talmudic statement that “Whoever forgets the Torah he has studied has forfeit part of his eternal life.” (Chapters of Our Fathers 3:8) It is commonly understood to refer to someone who does not constantly review what he has learned. The Chafetz Chaim once visited a Polish village and met an 85-year-old man, who had witnessed a royal visit more than 80 years earlier. The elderly man could not remember much of his life, but he recalled each and every detail of the king’s visit. He described the royal clothes down to the smallest detail. H... (read more)

10. Ghana's Budding Jewish Community Celebrates High Holidays
September 26, 2009

Monday is Yom Kippur - the holiest day of the year for Jews. The holiday will be marked in Jewish communities around the world, including Western Ghana. A small group of people from the Sefwi tribe in western Ghana converted to Judaism in the 1970's. While many Sefwi people observed some Jewish laws for centuries - including refraining from work on Saturdays - this group declared themselves ancestors of ancient Israelites and starting calling themselves Jews.Every year during the high holidays Jews visit a river and throw in bits of bread and cookies, to symbolize getting rid of their sins. Th... (read more)

12. Something To Explain
September 24, 2009

I was putting the final touches on my first Yom Kippur sermon in my new synagogue. I wanted to begin with an acknowledgment that I hurt people even though I had only been there for a month or two, and I wanted people to learn to ask for forgiveness. I was writing, “Request for Mechilah – forgiveness – on my notes and the phone rang. A friend was calling: “Rabbi, it is the custom that the rabbi begin his Yom Kippur sermon by asking everyone in the congregation for forgiveness.” I thanked him and hung up. I stared at my sermon notes, wondering what to do. When I decided to ask for Mechilah ... (read more)

13. Rosh Hashana: Shades of Light
September 09, 2009

It was pitch black when I arrived in the park this morning for my daily walk. Each park bench was occupied by a homeless person. Skunks were rifling through the garbage cans. None of the usual walkers were crazy enough to be there in those conditions. It was also freezing and I considered sitting in the warm car until the sun rose and more people were present. The homeless didn’t scare me; I know many of them, the way Reb Shlomo taught me on our Thursday all-nighters. I was scared of the skunks. OK, I said it! I had a miserable confrontation with a skunk in 1966. It won. I lost.... (read more)

17. Rabbinical Judaism - Scriptural or Not?
August 06, 2009

Definition of Rabbinical Judaism – This term refers to Judaism as controlled by the Rabbis after the destruction of the Temple in 70A.D. The Rabbis incorporate the Talmud into Judaism as canon. This is of course error. All that is built on this error is also by definition error. A bad tree does not produce any good fruit. Matthew 7:17 - Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Matthew 7:18 - A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Matthew 7:19 - Every tree th... (read more)

"My daughter doesn't like going to her Hebrew school. Tough we have tried another religious school, she keeps complaining that it's too boring, that she learns nothing there and that as a result, she will never be able to read the Parasha for her Bat Mitzva.

21. My Problem With Globalization
July 22, 2009

The problem occurs at this point: I must recite a second blessing after “Who creates fruit of the trees”: “Shehechiyanu”: The blessing we recite over a new fruit. The problem, specifically because of globalization is this: The fruit on the left is a Noni. Just a glance at this fruit and its flowers and buds catches my attention, even before I consider its taste. I want my “Shehechiyanu” to be on the best fruit in front of me, and the Noni certainly offers serious competition to the Mangosteen. You have small, light-green buds, and slightly larger white buds that have yet to unfold, and th... (read more)

God loves them. Most respond,"Yes!"; I then ask the more challenging question: "How do you know?"; That's when it becomes interesting. I invite you to join me in raising a toast to God, Who made it very clear to me, once again, that He must really love me: I met my son for coffee late last night, and in the course of our conversation he told me that he decided to randomly ask people whether they have ever experienced God in their lives.

It could be a challenge to find an experience that is as rich in religious history as a tour of Israel. One of the best ways to see Israel is to join an Israel tour and do some day walking.
