God

Jews believe that there are many characteristics of God:

  • God gave the Torah to Moses and the Jewish people at Sinai.
  • God created order out of chaos in the beginning of Genesis in order to form the world.
  • God redeemed the Israelites from slavery in Egypt.
  • God is at the center of Jewish prayer.
  • We are all God’s children as we are all descended from the first parents, Adam and Eve.
  • We are created in God’s image. Each person has a spark of Divinity in us.
  • God gave us free will.
  • God made an eternal covenant with Abraham and Sarah to bring us into the land of Israel.
  • God gave us the Sabbath, the Holidays and Laws to order our lives.
  • Every person needs to understand past beliefs and theologies about God and then resting on the traditional beliefs try to come to our own understanding of God.
  • Many Jews do not spell out the name of G-d.
