Intro Wrap up

Judaism is a monotheistic religion and the oldest of the

Abrahamic faiths. Although Jews trace their roots back to
Abraham, Moses officially founded the religion in the Middle East
more than 3500 years ago. Jews believe they have a covenant with
God, for whom they try to maintain religious laws and teachings.
The Jews have been persecuted throughout history, most notably
during the Holocaust, during which six million Jews were
murdered.
