About judaism
Judaism is the oldest monotheistic religion, forming over 3,000 years ago in the area of modern Israel. Jews, as adherents are known, are an ethnoreligious group - that is, a Jew is both someone of Israeli descent AND someone who adheres to the tenets of Judaism. In 2010, the world population was estimated at 13.4 million Jews; 42% live in Israel, 42% live in the U.S. and Canada. The remaining 16% mostly live in Europe and Russia. There are three major branches of Judaism today: Orthodox Judaism, Conservative Judaism, and Reform Judaism.
