Uniqueness of the Jews: Monotheism and its Implications

Monotheism is the most revolutionary idea that the Jewish People brought to the world. It is the source for these six central values of a perfect world.

Ethical Monotheism, the belief in one G-d who is the Creator of the Universe, the Father of all Humanitywp05t01b.jpg (205272 bytes) and the source for one absolute standard of morality, is THE greatest contribution to civilization in the history of mankind.

Today the world understands, and more or less believes, the idea of one indivisible G-d. Historically, this was not always the case. An amazing transformation has occurred in human consciousness during the last 3,000 years.
