Jews believe that there is a single God who not only created the universe, but with whom every Jew can have an individual and personal relationship. (BBC 2009-09-14) And Sumerians practiced a polytheistic religion, with anthropomorphic deities representing cosmic and terrestrial forces in their world. (Karen Rhea Nemet-Nejat, 1998) God also has power and jobs to do to help people.
Religion believe that God has power that can help people. Jews believe that God appointed the Jews to be his chosen people in order to set an example of holiness and ethical behaviour to the world.

(Karen Rhea Nemet-Nejat, 1998) When God help people, people also need to thanks god.
Every religion worship their God. When Jews people pray, they spend time with God and serve God with their heart, and obey God's commandment. (BBC 2009-09-13) In the Christian religion the belief developed that the story of Isaac's binding and of Jepthah's virgin daughter were foreshadowing for the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and whose sacrifice and resurrection allowed the sins of mankind to be washed away.
