Judaism is far more about practice than belief, and aside from "Hear oh Israel, the Lord your God, the Lord is One," Jews have not struggled over the issue of articles of faith. In the 12th century, Rabbi Moses ben Maimon, known by his Latinized name Maimonides, responded to the interaction of Jews with Christianity and Islam by listing 13 articles of faith. His list is the basis of the popular him Yigdal. The articles he listed were: God exists, is one and unique, incorporeal, eternal, is the only object of prayer, the prophets spoke truth, Moses was the greatest prophet, the Written and Oral Torah were given to Moses, there will be no other Torah, God knows our thoughts and deeds, God rewards good and punishes evil, the Messiah will come and the dead will be resurrected.
