Since the two groups lived side by side in Babylonia, there may have been some borrowing in language or other minor matters. But in terms of beliefs, the two are quite different.Judaism, according to tradition, has always been monotheistic. Even at the height of the unfortunate spread of idolatry among the less-loyal Ten Tribes, there were thousands who remained loyal to God (1 Kings 19:18).
(See: Judaism and monotheism)
The Zoroastrians, however, believed in two gods, not one. The Jewish Sages who redacted the Talmud in the early centuries of the Common Era lived in Babylonia, witnessed the practices of the Zoroastrians, and recorded this fact (Talmud, Sanhedrin 39a). In addition, Zoroastrianism is unlike Judaism in that:
No. The borrowing of different traditions does not make one religion derivative of the other. To be a derivative religion, your religion must be primarily based on another religion and then proceed to alter several components to make the religion distinct. A good example of a derivative religion would be Druze from Ismaili Shiite Islam. By adding an additional prophet, making some small changes to doctrine, and solidifying mystical elements, the Druze became distinct from the Ismailis and can be seen as a derivative religion. Judaism and Zoroastrianism were contemporary religions that influenced each other, but are fundamentally distinct. Probably the clearest distinction is that Judaism is a monotheistic religion whereas Zoroastrianism is a monolatrous henotheistic faith. Angra Mainyu, also called Ahriman, is the Zoroastrian equivalent to the Devil and has enough power to create (usually used for evil) and to challenge (although not defeat) the primary god Ahura Mazda, also called Ormuzd. Conversely, in Judaism, the Satan is an angel who serves as God's loyal opposition and lacks any serious creative or punitive powers without God's permission.
the term "stateless religion" is not a concept in Judaism.
There are few known similarities between Atenism and Judaism, apart from the fact that both are monotheistic. And there is no evidence that either religion influenced the rise of the other. Atenism was imposed on Egypt by King Akhenaten in the fourteenth century BCE, but only lasted until his death twenty years later. Monotheistic Judaism appears to have its origins around one thousand years after the brief Egyptian experiment with Atenism.
A:Of course, both religions are monotheistic, with Islam worshipping the Abrahamic God and Zoroastrianism worshipping Ahura Mazda. In addition, Judaism adopted several important concepts from the Zoroastrian religion of the Persians during the Babylonian Exile, and these were in turn passed down to Christianity and then Islam. These concepts include the devil, angels, heaven as a place of reward for the righteous and hell as a place of punishment, and the Day of Judgement. Through later contact, Islam also adopted details of the bridge of judgement (Sarat) and the five times daily prayers.
Islam is the major religion in north Africa and southwest Asia.
Judaism.
All three religions are based on sacred texts that explain the relationship between humans and gods.
Islam did not originate in India. Christianity did not. Judaism did not. Baha'i did not. Zoroastrianism did not.
Zoroastrianism and vedic Hinduism are the oldest faiths with Judaism and Buddhism following on behind.
None. Judaism is a religion, India is a nation or country.
Islam. It claims that it is the continuEation of Judaism and CHRISTIANITY
A:The Persian religion, Zoroastrianism, at the time of the Babylonian Exile was different from the others, with the possible exception of Judaism, in that it was monotheistic.
AnswerNaturally, the Jewish religion, Judaism, is similar to Christianity and Islam, which have their roots in Judaism. It is also somewhat similar to Zoroastrianism, the religion of the Persians who defeated Babylon and allwed the Jews to return to their ancestral homeland.
Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Sikhism, Druze, Zoroastrianism, and Rastafari are just a few of the many monotheistic religions.
Hinduism Judaism Zoroastrianism Buddhism Shinto Confucianism Jainism Taoism Christianity Islam Bahaism Sikhism
No. Many Babylonians became followers of Zoroastrianism, an ancient religion that shares many concepts with Judaism and Christianity. Some say that Nehemiah and Ezra were sent to the Jews to teach them their own religion.
Zoroastrianism was the religion of Iran (Persia) before Islam. It was founded in Persia around the 6th century BC out of the teachings of a religious philosopher called Zoroaster. It influenced Christianity, Judaism and Islam
Just about any religion on Earth will have believers in the Middle East; the major religions are Islam, Christianity, Judaism, and - at least in certain countries - Zoroastrianism and the Bahá'í Faith.
