This book explores the beliefs and practices of Judaism as a lived religion in the United Kingdom and addresses issues of representation.This book engages with Jewish beliefs and practices in a way that is accurate, accessible and engaging for teachers of all phases. Aspects of Judaism explored include the concepts that form the central beliefs of Judaism, and then the expression of these beliefs in worship, daily life, and the ethics of Jews in the modern day. Each chapter utilises the authentic voice of believers today and invites the reader to consider the concepts and how they can be taught in the classroom.

One of the distinctive features of this book is its engagement with diversity in the Jewish world. How are the teachings of Judaism understood and lived in different circumstances in the UK today? Written by an expert in Religious Studies, this book provides immediate applicability for the classroom, and helps the reader deepen their knowledge of Judaism.
