Pidyon Haben is a rite of passage in Judaism that is known as the redemption of the first born son. It takes place when a
baby is at least 31 days old, and involves buying him back
from a Cohen. Here the baby is draped in gold by the mother, grandmother and family and
then bought back from a Cohen for 5 pieces of silver. The baby has to be the first boy who
has opened his mothers womb and not have been delivered by a caesarean birth.

In the communal and religious life of the Jewish people, dance has been regarded as an expression of joy and
sorrow since biblical times and is today an integral part of religious, national, community, and family
celebrations. Contemporary dance has developed in two directions: expansion of the folk dance genre which
accompanied the early settlers in the rebuilding of their ancient homeland; and the establishment of art
dance, leading to stage productions created by professional choreographers and performed by traineddancers.

BELIEF
God
Judaism is a monotheistic faith, meaning that Jews believe there is only One God. Often this God is beyond our ability to comprehend,
but God is nevertheless present in our everyday lives. How individual Jews choose to understand this manifestation of the divine varies.
Some connect with God through prayer, others see the divine in the majesty of the natural world, others may not think about God on adaily basis. Each individual's relationship with God is unique and personal.
Humankind Was Created In the Divine Image
Judaism teaches that every person (Jewish and non-Jewish) was created "bene Elohim," which is Hebrew for "in the image of God." For
this reason every person is equally important and has an infinite potential to do good in the world. People have the freewill to make
choices in their lives and each of us is responsible for the consequences of those choices.
Community
Judaism believes that Jews are uniquely connected with each other. Regardless of where we live in the world, all Jews are part of a
global Jewish community.
Torah
The Torah is Judaism's most important text. It contains stories and commandments that teach us about life and death. It contains the 10
Commandments as well as the 613 commandments (mitzvot). All Jews consider the 10 Commandments to be the most important
commandments in the Torah, though not all Jews adhere to the 613 mitzvot (one of the main differences between the different branchesof Judaism).
The Ten Commandments:
1. I am the Lord your God2. You shall not recognize the gods of others in My presence3. You shall not take the Name of the Lord your God in vain4. Remember the day of shabbat to keep it holy5. Honor your father and your mother6. You shall not murder7. You shall not commit adultery8. You shall not steal9. Do not give false testimony against your neighbor10. You shall not covet your fellow's possessions
The Land of Israel
The Torah tells us that the Land of Israel (Eretz Yisrael) was part of the covenant made between God and the Jewish People at MountSinai. However, there is no one view of Israel among modern day Jews. Some strongly support Israel, while others feel conflicted by the
politics of the region. The only thing that can be said across the board is that Israel is part of every Jew's worldview, in one way or
another.
Messiah
Judaism teaches that one day a Messiah (a person from God) will unite the world and bring peace to humanity. The concept of the
Messiah is not a central part of every Jew's belief system, but tradition does teach that the Messiah will be descended from the family of
King David.

Judaism On One Foot - Summing Up Judaism
There is a story in the Talmud that is often told when someone is asked to summarize the essence of Judaism. During the first centuryB.C.E. a great rabbi named Hillel was asked to sum up Judaism while standing on one foot. He replied: "Certainly! What is hateful to
you, do not do to your neighbor. That is the Torah. The rest is commentary, now go and study." (Talmud Shabbat 31A.) Hence, at its
core Judaism is concerned with the well-being of humanity. The particulars of every Jew's individual belief system is the commentary.

Name and flag
The name "Israel" is rooted in the Hebrew
Bible, the Tanakh, where Jacob is renamed
Israel after wrestling with a mysterious
adversary ("a man", and later "God"
according to Genesis 32:2430; or "the
angel", according to Hosea 12:4). Israel
means "he who has wrestled with God". The
nation fathered by Jacob, were then called
"the children of Israel" or the "Israelites".
The people are commonly called Jews after Jacob's son Judah, the ancient father of
the tribe of King David's dynasty.

by the techeileth dye of the tallit (Jewish prayer shawl).
