Judaism was the first monotheistic religion (born in Palestine, about 2500 years ago). However, there was a pharaoh in Egypt called Amenophis IV (in Greek it is Amenhotep) who replaced religion of Amon with a mystical monotheistic religion of Aten (or Aton). He even changed his name to Akhenaten. According to this religion all men were equal in the love of an only God, of whom the pharaoh was the prophet. He created a new capital called Akhetaten.

Judaism, loosely speaking, as in Seth's time at Gen.4:26, "call upon the name," i.e., meaning to have communion with and connected to the one God from the Hebrew aspect.
