6 0

The subject of the great compromise was how the congress would deal with legislation. It was a debate whether the states should be equally represented, or should they be represented based on the size of the state, that is, on the size of the population. The decision was to have a compromise and have a bicameral government where both systems would be implemented in the best interest of all states with the senate having equal representation, and the house having population representation.

They decided that for now slavery would be legitimate and legal, but in the future the Congress would decide the future of slavery in the country. The 3/5ths compromise was important in this because of how slaves would account for during census when it comes to representation. In the future however we know what the congress did and how slavery was first forbidden in the North, and then later in the south as well.

Describe Judaism’s impact on the beliefs of Christianity and Islam.

zlopas [31]

Answer: Islamic–Jewish relations started in the 7th century AD with the origin and spread of Islam in the Arabian peninsula. The two religions share similar values, guidelines, and principles.[1] Islam also incorporates Jewish history as a part of its own. Muslims regard the Children of Israel as an important religious concept in Islam. Moses, the most important prophet of Judaism, is also considered a prophet and messenger in Islam.[2] Moses is mentioned in the Quran more than any other individual, and his life is narrated and recounted more than that of any other prophet.[3] There are approximately 43 references to the Israelites in the Quran (excluding individual prophets),[4] and many in the Hadith. Later rabbinic authorities and Jewish scholars such as Maimonides discussed the relationship between Islam and Jewish law. Maimonides himself, it has been argued, was influenced by Islamic legal thought.[5]

Because Islam and Judaism share a common origin in the Middle East through Abraham, both are considered Abrahamic religions. There are many shared aspects between Judaism and Islam; Islam was strongly influenced by Judaism in its fundamental religious outlook, structure, jurisprudence and practice.[1] Because of this similarity, as well as through the influence of Muslim culture and philosophy on the Jewish community within the Islamic world, there has been considerable and continued physical, theological, and political overlap between the two faiths in the subsequent 1,400 years. Notably, the first Islamic Waqf was donated by a Jew, Rabbi Mukhayriq.[6] And in 1027, a Jew, Samuel ibn Naghrillah, became top advisor and military general of the Taifa of Granada.[7]
