Best Answer

There are many teachings, but short version: There is One God, listen to HIM.

If you have access to a Judeo-Christian Bible, the basic tenets of the religion are contained in Exodus 20:2-17. These verses are the Cliff Notes of the entire religion. From this list, the book of Leviticus expands and expounds on the particulars and practices.

The first five books of the Judeo-Christian Bible are known as the Torah--THE Teachings. These books relate the history of the Jews, the Laws and their applications. From these five books have come many thousands of commentaries and opinions about current Judaism. As the old saying goes, "Two Jews, three opinions."

The single most basic Jewish teaching is that God, who is One (Deuteronomy 4:6), created the universe (Genesis 1:1) and gave the Torah (Exodus 24:12). The rest of Judaism revolves around this. For more:
