      • Isaac is associated with Judaism.
      • Ishmael is linked to Islam.

    Important Aspects of Judaism

    • Monotheism: Judaism emphasizes the oneness of God based on biblical references (Exodus 20:1-6, Deuteronomy 6:4-6).
    • Angels serve as intermediaries, conveying God's messages through visions or dreams.
    • Prophets act as messengers, revealing God's will and prophesying for Israel's future.

    Holy Scripture

    • The Prophets express God's word and promise deliverance to Israel.

    • The Temple serves as the sacred meeting place between God and His chosen people.
    • Access to the Temple is restricted to the Jewish community for confessing individual and national sins.

    Worship Practices

    • The practice of observing the Sabbath, from Friday evening to Saturday evening, involves reading and prayer.

    Role of the Priest
