c.1400 (attested in anglo-latin from mid-13c.), from old french judaisme and directly from late latin judaismus (tertullian), from greek ioudaismos, from ioudaios “jew” (see jew). the anglo-latin reference is from a special tax levied on the jews of england. earlier in same sense was juhede “jewish faith, judaism,” literally “jew-hood” (early 14c.).

the religion of the israelites of the bible and of the jews of today, based on the teachings of the torah. judaism involves the belief in one g-d, whose chosen people are the jews. abraham is considered the founder of judaism, although moses, who delivered the laws of g-d to the israelites, is also an important figure.

the holy days and festivals of judaism include hanukkah, p-ssover, purim, rosh hashanah, and yom kippur. (see also sabbath.)
