What is The Student's Guide to World Religions: Judaism (Student's Guide to World Religions) about?

Judaism, one of the world's great religions, was the first monotheistic faith. This belief in one God, along with basic tenets, laws, and practices written in the Hebrew Bible, laid the foundations of other religions. Therefore, familiarity with Judaism is crucial to understanding Christianity and Islam as well. Judaism is also more than a faith; it encompasses national, ethnic, and cultural elements that impact Jewish life. This book provides a content-rich yet thoroughly readable and enjoyable overview of the richness of Judaism in one volume for students. Narrative chapters explain Judaism's eventful history from founding by Abraham and Sarah to Diaspora, basic texts such as the Torah and Talmud, tenets such as food prohibitions, the different branches, where and how Jews worship and live today, important rituals and holidays, and major figures.
