Jews practice Monotheism (only one God). Most Christian denominations practice Trinitarianism (three gods in one) and some Christian denominations believe in Tritheism (three distinct and separate gods).
Christianity and Judaism are two of the three great monotheistic religions, the third being Islam.
Answer 2
No Christian denomination practices Trinitarianism in the sense stated in the answer above for no Christian believes in more than one God or god. All Christians believe in only one God or they would not be Christian.
All Christian churches believe in the doctrine of the trinity as stated in the Apostles, Nicene, and particularly the Athanasian creeds.
Note that in the text of the Athanasian creed the word Catholic means Christian, not Roman Catholic as it means today. In other words, the Athanasian creed was a statement of Christian doctrine, to combat a number of errors which arose at that time, particularly Arianism, which taught that Jesus was not God.

There really is not difference. They are both Jehovah. However, Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah. Jews believe that the Messiah has yet to come. So both groups worship the same God. There are difference in beliefs after that, though.
Jewish answer
Both religions believe in the same God, (though the J word mentioned in the previous answer is not accepted by Jews the name of God, rather it's the result of a Medieval Christian misunderstanding of a Jewish writing convention. Google "Tetragrammaton").
Here are some differences in how God is understood in the two religions (these are general differences and do not apply to ALL Jews or ALL Christians):
- Jews believe that God is a unity, whereas Christians believe God is a trinity.
- Jews believe God is everywhere at all times, whereas Christians have the concept of Hell, where some souls are cut off from God.
- Jews believe that God welcomes the righteous of all faiths, whereas Christians believe there is only one path to God.
- Jews believe that God is the only superhuman power in existence, whereas many Christian denominations regard Satan as an evil superhuman being with power independent from God. Others also give power to saints and angels.

∙ 6y agoDictionaries define "Judaism" as The monotheistic religion of the Jews, since the founding principle of Judaism was and is the belief in One God. This was the teaching which was spread by Abraham, and has continued since then.
In Judaism:
God is One. The concept of a dualism (as in Zoroastrianism), an independent Satan, multiple gods (polytheism; paganism) or a trinity of three in one, are all unimaginable in Judaism. Also, any belief that an intermediary between humanity and God should be used, whether as necessary or even optional, is considered heretical.God is non-physical, indivisible and incomparable.

And yes it is true that the Jews are the ones responsible for the death of Christ. Many people dislike the Jews for this history. A lack of forgivness. You see Jesus forgave them, despite the fact he was the one hanging on the cross. "Father forgive them for they know what they do" is all he said.The Jewish belief is actually very peaceful.
