No, the Hebrew religion is the old name for the Jewish religion, and Hebrew is the language they speak. Jews are (and always were) Monotheistic. Judaism is the base of Christianity (Christ was Jewish) so Christians and Jews believe in the same God and study the same bible, only the Jews study the Old Testament and they call it the Torah.

However Abraham did worship Elohim, which is plural for "lord" so that suggests he worshiped multiple gods. The male god that they believe created all in Genesis was Baal, and the female god was Ashtoreth. There is significant evidence that up until the time after Deuteronomy, they believed many gods existed, and at different times worshipped different babylonian and canaan pagan gods.

Write one fact about sumerian religion write one opinion.?

Sumer was the first recorded civilization to inhabit Mesopotamia. They were also the first to create a religion. There's was mythological. One fact about Sumerian religion is that the gods of the Sumerian religion were anthropomorphic Gods who ate, drank, had relationships, had kids, and expressed emotions. My opinion on this is that, as the earliest form of religion, it seems quite plausible that this could be true. Not only did the first civilization associate with a polytheistic religion, but several other polytheistic religions have been created around much the same principal of human-like Gods. Since it is also noted before Christianity and many other religions, it seems to be the most likely.
