Jews believe in a single indivisible God who is an absolute one. Jews believe God exists independently from everything in the universe, and also is the cause behind everything that exists. God is beyond the constraints of space and time, is not made of either matter or energy, and can be compared to nothing. God brings the cosmos into existence in every moment, and is never changed or effected positively or negatively by anything.

God is incomprehensible and beyond the grasp of the human ken, and is ultimately unknowable. God has complete influence on everything in the world, and in kindness gives life and sustains all beings, in justice brings death and destruction, and will one day revive the dead with great kindness, and with justice will judge the world. God comprehends everything. God is eternal, existed before existence, and after nothing exists God will still exist indefinitely.

There are two main words in Hebrew that are ascribed to God. The first is the name YHWH (which is not pronounced today due to its sacredness) this name comes from the Hebrew root 'haya' (to exist) and means "The Being of Absolute Existence". The second is the title Elohim which means 'powers', and describes God as the sum and totality of every force and influence acting on the universe.

Jews believe in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the same God as Christians believe. Except that the Jews believe God is an absolute one indivisible being, while Christians believe God is made up of three distinct beings.

Answer 2

Jews (like Muslims) do not believe that Jesus is God or son of God. They (like Muslims) believe in one and only one God, the same God that all prophets called to be worshiped, from the start of mankind including Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, and Solomon.

Another answer:

Jews absolutely believe in one and only one God. The Jewish leaders took Christ's claim of equality with God (John 10:30 - "I and My Father are one.") as extreme blasphemy, which was their foremost reason to reject him as the Messiah.

Avram was the one who began the Jewish religion. He realized that the idols in his father's shop couldn't be real gods, so he started teaching about the one Creator of all: God.

God told him that they could have a covenant, wherein Avram would take on a new name, Avraham (or Abraham in English) and be the father of the Jewish people. He would also need to circumcise himself. He was 90 years old when he did this.
