Features: Judaism is a belief, an infinite reverence for God and a full affirmation of humanity. Judaism is an ethical code, providing the basic beliefs of Jews towards people and all things in the world, and prescribing the life principles and behavioral norms for Jews. Judaism is a way of life, with unique expressions in all aspects of life, such as respecting the elderly and cherishing the young, daily routines, weddings, funerals, and festivals. Judaism is a set of special commandments, the 613 commandments that are awe-inspiring, restricting many freedoms for believers, yet granting them infinite wisdom and fostering human dignity. Judaism is a culture, an ancient, primal, and rough culture, but it plays a pivotal role in the progress of world civilization.
