What is a synopsis of the Jewish religion?
The Jewish religion believes in a single, omniscient and omnipotent G-d. Jews are obliged to believe in G-d and follow His commandments. Jews believe that G-d revealed Himself to the Children of Israel 3319 years ago, and presented them with 613 commandments that they are to follow. (A person will not be obligated to keep all 613- some are only for men, some only for women; some only apply if you live in Israel and others are dependant on having a Jewish Temple in Jerusalem- which we have not had for 2000 years). These commandments include a system of prayers and rituals as well as laws ensuring people treat each other properly. [If you could be more specific with the question, you would be able to get a clearer pictute of the Jewish religion.
