Judaism

יהדות he ܝܗܘܕܝܘܬܐ arc

Abrahamic monotheistic ethnic religion of the Jews

  • Dated from c. 5th century BCE
  • Also called Jewish religion

A path that branches,
meets and parts.

Schools and lineages

Branches · 9

Many paths. Shared histories.

9 branches recorded under Judaism, one step down, as the records give them.

What this means

Association and branching, in both directions. Traditions overlap, split and re-merge; this is not a single-origin family tree, and being listed under another tradition is not the same as being recognised by it.

Does not imply a clean single-origin family tree · that the parent recognises the branch

Traditions whose own records say they belong to it

22 traditions name Judaism as their own — an affiliation, so kept apart from the tree.

Overview

From Wikipedia, quoted unmodified under CC BY-SA 4.0; the article’s history is its list of authors.

Deities · 3

Gods and divine figures

What this means

Records whose own statements name this tradition — 3 of them. Computed from those statements, not curated here, and ordered by how widely each is linked across Wikipedia — those at home in the tradition’s collection first, and those with a picture first among the leading few — rather than by significance to the tradition.

A god named in a tradition is a figure of its accounts; a picture of one is a work of art, not a likeness.

An affiliation recorded on a person is a third party’s record, often of one period of a life — not that person’s belief at every point in it.

A place that names a tradition may be a temple or a whole province. Either way it is not a count of believers, and not evidence of practice in every period.

A holy day’s day is the one its record states it is observed on. A festival recurs, so it has no date on the historical clock, and one named here is not evidence of when or where it was kept.

A ruling house that names a tradition is a family’s recorded affiliation, not its subjects’ practice; an office is a line of holders, not a family.

Connections

How Judaism connects

Grouped by the kind of relationship, because a successor is not a son and a shared symbol is not an influence.

Identification 1

What this means

One figure treated as another in some context. Not literal identity in all contexts, and usually a claim by a third party.

Does not imply literal identity in all contexts · that either tradition made the identification

Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

Documented influence 4

What this means

A transmission argued from evidence. Not shared symbols, and not a short path through a database.

Does not imply shared symbols as evidence · a short path through a database

Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.

Place 1

What this means

Where something is, or is documented. A location is not by itself evidence of activity.

Does not imply that anything is documented to have happened there

Imported from Wikidata unless a tile says otherwise. Nothing here has been read by an editor.
