Jewish worship

Jewish worship centers on connecting with God through prayer, rituals, and community. Key practices include daily prayers, special services on Sabbath (Saturday) and festivals, and reading from the Torah, the sacred Jewish scriptures. Synagogues serve as places for communal prayer and learning. Rituals such as lighting candles, blessings, and dietary laws (kosher) express reverence and gratitude. Worship emphasizes ethical living, justice, and remembering God's covenant with the Jewish people. While practices can vary among different communities, the focus remains on spiritual connection, tradition, and living according to Jewish values.
