Jewish people believe in one God, they believe in a special agreement has made by them and their god. This agreement is also known as covenant. People in this religion are thanking their God for looking after the throughout their lives. Similar to Christianity, Jews believe in a man called Moses and Abraham. Abraham is a Hebrew man believed to have the first ’agreement’ with God. Moses is a man who saved the Jewish people from persecution in Egypt when he led them to safety across the Red Sea. He is also known to be the founder of Judaism. Their holy book is called Torah which is written in Hebrew. It is believed to be so special that people are not allowed to touch it. It is kept in a safe place called an ark in the Jewish temple. If people want to read it, they must use a special pointer stick called the yad. Jews worship their God in a building called synagogue where the services are held by rabbis which means ’teacher’ in Hebrew. Both boys and girl take place in a ceremony called Bar Mitzvah and Bat Mitzvah which are basically their first step on the way of growing up.
