JUDAISM A PowerPoint presentation by

Emma Ouellette!!

HISTORY OF RELIGION God created the Jewish and Christian

culture. Noah built the ark and was the only one

who survived the flood, so he created the Israelites.

The Hebrews had kinship with Arab tribes

They use the language of Ancient Israel and the Old Testament.

David the future king of Israel, saved their religion by defeating Goliath the Giant.

(Similar Christian beliefs)

DEATH The souls of the righteous go to Gan

Eden (The Garden of Eden) The wicked are not resurrected like the

righteous. They are tortured by demons of their own

creation. Hell is called Olam-Ba-Ha by the Jewish.

CHRISTIAN BELIEFS ABOUT DEATH Believers that are free of suffering and

sin go to heaven. Humans that sinned and did wrong in

their lives go to hell. Faith in Jesus Christ is essential. The Book of Life tells all about Hades

and Death bringing their dead to God, then being cast into the lake of fire.

They lived in Egypt where they were enslaved.

God promised to protect them if they continued to worship him.

BASIC BELIEFS CONTINUED Moses the Hebrew persuaded the

pharaoh and led them out of Egypt. God gave Moses the Ten

Commandments, the laws that the Jews follow today.

CHRISTIAN BELIEFS God created the whole world. (see Jewish beliefs because of similar

same beliefs.) Christ died for the peoples’ sins, that is

why we live today.

CONCLUSION In conclusion, I discovered that Judaism

and Christianity are very alike.
