I need a short paragraph of judaism. il give brain less
larisa [96]

Judaism is the religion commonly linked to Jewish people. It is based on the principles contained in the Hebrew Bible, the Tanakh, which are expanded and explained in the Talmud.

In 2007, the world Jewish population was of 13.2 million, 41 percent of which reside in Israel, whilst the remaining is spread around the world (the diaspora).

Origins of Judaism

Jewish history begins with the covenant established between God and Abraham around 1812 BC, during the Bronze Age, in the Middle East. Abraham is a central figure in Judaism, being considered the Patriarch and progenitor of the Jewish people.

Under God’s guidance, the Jews became a powerful nation with kings such as Saul, David, and Solomon, who built the first Temple. Subsequently, this was the site around which Jewish worship was centred. The Temple contained the Ark of the Covenant, and was the exclusive site for certain religious rituals.

Throughout their history, Jewish people experienced times of great expansion and advance in knowledge (both theological and scientific) which were interspersed by periods of persecution and massacres. The Jews were slaughtered during the Christian Crusades and, along with Muslims, were persecuted and object of hatred in Europe in the 13th and 15th centuries and most recently, during the Holocaust. In this period alone 6 million Jewish people were killed, 1 million of which were children. War crimes trials of those involved in the Holocaust continue to this day.

In 1947 the United Nations agreed to create the State of Israel in what was then Palestine. In 1948 the British military forces withdrew from the region after a period of terrorist-like violence against them by the Zionists and the State of Israel was born. Since then there have been several wars between the Arab countries around Israel which have been marked by several invasions and great loss of lives. The most notable living example of the political instability between Israel and the surrounding Arab states is revealed by the ongoing political and military battles between Israel and the Palestinian people.

Beliefs and principles

The Jewish religion is based on the principle that there is only one indivisible all-powerful, all-knowing and all-present God, who is fair and just and the creator of the universe and mankind.

God’s law, the Torah, as given to Moses on the Mount Sinai reveals His character and His will for his children. It is the Jewish belief that God still acts in the world as it is today, and that He establishes a personal relationship with every one of His followers.

It is the Jewish tradition to keep God’s laws and to bring holiness into every aspect of their lives. It is their belief that the Jews are God’s chosen people, whose responsibility is to set an example of holiness and morality to the rest of the world.

The experience of Judaism is very much a community one; they consider themselves to be an integrating part of a global community. Many of the Jewish traditions are based around the family and home activities.

How do you become a Jew?

Being a Jew is very much a blood matter. Often, in order to be considered a Jew, a child must be born of a Jewish mother. However, sometimes the children of Jewish fathers are also considered Jews. There is substantial overlap between the cultural and religious aspects of the Jewish identity. Even if a Jew converts to a different religion, they are still considered Jews. Conversely, it is not easy to convert to Judaism, if not born into this cultural/religious setting.

Perhaps one of the most striking aspect of Jewish theology is the rejection of Christ as the Messiah, in sharp contrast to the Christian belief. It is generally accepted that Jesus was a Jew himself, most probably a Pharisee (teacher/theologian) of the more liberal wing. The facts that Jesus was crucified and no peace was established, and that there was a putative openness to discussion in synagogues (making Christ’s somewhat revolutionary concepts unsurprising) are some of the Jewish arguments for their stance on Jesus. The Jews are therefore still waiting for their Messiah.

Even though Judaism is one of the oldest religions still in place today, throughout times it has been influenced by other religious currents, namely Christianity, Islam and the Bahai faith.

What were the key elements that allowed the colonials to win the War for Independence? What people and events were important to
liberstina [14]

1. The alliance with France was really important because of the military power it gave to the United States, and not only that but it raised a lot of tension in other matters between the two European countries. Also the intervention of other nations like Spain and Netherlands turned the tide for the Americans a lot.

2. Military training and preparation is an element that can't be ignored, political issues were important but the performance on the battlefield was decisive for the outcome of the war, the war strategies and logistics were undoubtedly a key element in the victory of the colonials.

3. Political division in England as there was an internal conflict in the parliament as of the nature and future actions in the war.

4. The british alienated many potential supporters, like for example the Loyalist, who were almost 50.000 willing to defend and mantain control of the colonies, but they did not take advantage of that.

George Washington, Commander in Chief. (USA)

Nathanael Greene, General (USA)

Sir William Howe, Commander in Chief ( British forces)

Henry Clinton, Office, (British forces).

Events: Siege of Yorktown and Treaty of Paris.

This events were important because they marked the end of the war, they defined how the events were going to be in the future, how things were going to turn out in the future, the siege because of the surrender of more than 7000 men under Cornwallis command and after that event the battles in America decreased and died out and the Treaty because of how the war developed and concluded it geographically delimitated the territory that now we know as the United States of America.

"The ideals used to justify U.S involvement in World War I disguised real reasons for Wilson’s change in policy from neutrality
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Hi

Neutrality is experienced in Wilson's motto and in his opinion American foreign policy would not benefit from participation in the war. The road to war began just over two months earlier, when the German government tried to resume its war policy of underwater attacks without any restrictions on the coastal waters around the British Isles, including American ships. Given the ineffective armed neutrality that had been useless to defend ships against attacks by German submarines, on April 2 in a speech before Congress Wilson told parliamentarians that they should consider German actions as a declaration of war against United States people. Two days later the Senate voted in favor of Wilson's resolution and days later it was approved by the House of Representatives. It was then that on April 6, 1917, the president signed his official statement. The United States entered the First World War.

how did the majority of Supreme Court justices in the case of Plessy versus Ferguson interpret the Fourth Amendment
Papessa [141]
Hello!

The correct answer is A. Racial segregation is constitutional if the facilities are the same for everyone.

Plessy vs. Ferguson ruled the "separate but equal" doctrine, which determined that racial segregation in schools was constitutional as long as the schools were the same for all races. This was later ruled as unconstitutional by the Brown vs. Board of Education court case. 

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!
