The origin of Judaism can be traced to the Old Testament (Judaists recognize 39 books of the Old Testament as Holy Scripture). The Pentateuch of Moses (or Torah) is the main sacred text of Judaism. In this book, the reader can get acquainted in detail with one of the books of the Torah - Numbers. The Book of Numbers is a kind of set of guiding instructions for Israel in its post-Sinai period. It clearly reflects the humanistic orientation of Judaism, which, back in Old Testament times, developed many moral and ethical standards of human coexistence that allow one to live in harmony and love with God and neighbors.< /p>
