judaism belief and practices

Jews were monotheists—they believed in and worshipped only one god. Judaism is the world's oldest monotheistic religion, dating back nearly 4000 years.

Jewish weddings

Participation of a rabbi is not necessary for a marriage to be binding under Jewish law. Traditionally, a legal marriage occurs when payment of money, a contract, or sexual intercourse has taken place. Jewish wedding ceremonies take about 30 minutes, and consist of two ceremonies. The two were traditionally held separately, up to a year apart, but are performed together in modern weddings.

Jewish Death and Funeral Rituals

While the preservation of life in Judaism is of paramount importance, taking precedence over nearly all other priorities and observances, death is not therefore abhorred or devalued.
