Orthodox and Conservative Jews believe the miracles reported in the Hebrew Bible occurred. In some cases, the interpretation may not be taken literally. Many Jews believe that the 7-day week in Genesis 1, for example, is a metaphor and that the days represent eras. This belief in a non-literal interpretation is backed up by the Talmud.
Non-Orthodox Jews will vary in how much or how literally they believe in the miracles of the Hebrew Bible.
However, please note that the Jewish Bible is the Tanach. Although the Christian Old Testament was based on the Tanach, the OT was altered to support the teachings of Christianity.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on who you ask. Most non-Orthodox Jews do not believe literally in miracles, except maybe as events that defied probability (in other words, they do not believe miracles defied nature).
Orthodox Jews are also of mixed opinions on the subject.
