    Judaism is the religion and culture of the Jewish people. It originated with God revealing himself to Abraham and commanding him to establish a special nation. Key beliefs include following the 613 laws in the Torah, worshipping at synagogues led by rabbis, and observing traditions like Shabbat and keeping a kosher diet. The religion is symbolized by objects like the Star of David, menorah, and tefillin. Historically, two temples were built in Jerusalem but were later destroyed. Judaism teaches balancing the good and evil inclinations by obeying God's commandments and resisting temptation.
