Being Jewish

Judaism is often thought to be a race but it is a religion; although, often Jewish people think themselves as a race.

The Jewish faith is passed down on their mother side so for example if your mother is Jewish and father is Christian you will follow your mother and became Jewish. This is because in the Jewish faith mothers are more dominant whilst in other religions it is generally male figures with the dominance.

The home is sacred to Jewish people. And is where Judaism is in forced the most. They eat kosher meals and on Friday nights till midday Saturday it is family time, to spend in the home.

The Jews believe in the teaching of the Jewish bible called a torah it is the same as the Old Testament in the Christian bible. They do not have the New Testament, because the New Testament is about Jesus and they do not think Jesus rose from the dead and performed miracles.
