Jewish Beliefs

Today is the second in the series Prayer in School?

The following is a very condensed list of what the Jewish faith teaches:
There is only one God.
Every person was created in the image of God.
Every Jewish person is connected with each other regardless of vicinity. Thus creating one global Jewish community.
The Torrah is considered the most important text, containing the 10 Commandments and 613 other commandments.  All Jews consider the 10 Commandments the most important.  Not all Jews adhere to the 613 commandments.
The land of Israel was part of the Covenant made by God to the Jewish People at Mount Sinai.
One day a Messiah will unite the world and bring peace to humanity.
