Why was Judaism made?

Abraham founded what we call Judaism (Talmud, Yoma 28b). He did so because he saw that his contemporaries were all worshiping idols; and, after deep contemplation he had determined that idolatry is a deviation from the truth.

Abraham taught anyone who would listen, and inculcated his teachings among his family (Genesis 18:19). Later, God gave the Torah to Abraham's Israelite descendants.

See the attached Related Link at greater length concerning Abraham's repudiation of idolatry.
