The religion is 4,000 years old. It gave birth to Christianity and Islam. It is a monotheistic religion that worships Adonai.
Judaism started with a group of people called Hebrews. They lived a nomadic life in what is now Iraq. Abraham is the first Jew and his son Isaac and Isaac's son Jacob are the 3 patriarchs or fathers of Judaism. Jacob had 12 sons and they became the leaders of the 12 tribes of Israel.
