The Beginning of Judaism
![Page 4: Clint Heinze. Circa 2000 BCE near Canaan (Israel area). Abraham is “founder” and lineage are a part of his covenant with God. It is the first monotheistic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab6930/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The names given to the one Creator and Ruler of all:
Considered the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob God (a large portion of Jews will not say this, though.
It might not be said with enough respect: a sin. Yahweh (YHWH – no vowels in Hebrew) Elohim Adonai - Lord Hashem
Name of Deity
![Page 5: Clint Heinze. Circa 2000 BCE near Canaan (Israel area). Abraham is “founder” and lineage are a part of his covenant with God. It is the first monotheistic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab6930/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
They follow written as well as oral law. Written Law – Torah/Pentateuch ( generally
the most important) The first five books of the Old Testament - the
Jewish Hebrew version called the Tanakh - of the Bible. Also known as the Books of Moses
Holy Books
![Page 6: Clint Heinze. Circa 2000 BCE near Canaan (Israel area). Abraham is “founder” and lineage are a part of his covenant with God. It is the first monotheistic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab6930/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
After the diaspora by the Romans after the fall of the
second temple, Jerusalem was renamed Capitolina Aelia and Judah was renamed Palestine.
During this time of separation, Judaism entered the time of “tannaim,” or teachers.
Oral Law was practiced. Eventually written down into the Mishnah.
The Mishnah uses laws from the Torah and legal traditions used since the time of Ezra (450 BCE).
Holy Books
![Page 7: Clint Heinze. Circa 2000 BCE near Canaan (Israel area). Abraham is “founder” and lineage are a part of his covenant with God. It is the first monotheistic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab6930/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Amoraim, or rabbi scholars, studied the Mishnah
and added comments explaining the Oral Law. This became what is now the Talmud or Gemara. Two Talmuds developed
Palestinian Talmud – the shorter of the two due to unrest in Palestine. Finished
in CE 425. Babylonian Talmud – finished in the end of the 5th century.

Orthodox
Torah comes directly from God and cannot be altered.
Humans must rely on rabbis to understand it. Rabbi understanding of the Torah has been gathered to make the “halachah,” or Jewish law. Everything is literal; from the concept of Mitzvah (commandment).
2 Main Branches of Judaism
![Page 13: Clint Heinze. Circa 2000 BCE near Canaan (Israel area). Abraham is “founder” and lineage are a part of his covenant with God. It is the first monotheistic.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649dc45503460f94ab6930/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Reform/mainstream
Torah is God-inspired and used to understand surroundings and relationship with God.
Torah is holy but dated and discernment can be used.
Judaism can evolve by coming to our own understandings of scripture. Jewish law is a guideline rather than a requirement.*There are also several other branches. These are the main two.
