Best Answer

In Judaism, the deliberate pursuit of wealth is not encouraged; making a livelihood is sufficient. One's money should be used in the service of God. Because Abraham (for example) was so righteous (Genesis 26:5), God gave him great wealth (Genesis ch.13), which he used in God's service. See also the Related Link.

Answer

The Jewish religion does not place any special emphasis on money. However, one mitzvah (Jewish law) requires Jews to give 10-20% of their incomes to charity (tzedakah).
