Judeo-Christian tradition

The Judeo-Christian tradition refers to the shared religious, ethical, and cultural values rooted in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) and Christian teachings. It emphasizes principles like monotheism, justice, compassion, and moral responsibility. This tradition has influenced Western laws, morals, and societies, shaping ideas about human dignity and community. While it originates from Judaism and Christianity, it has also contributed to broader cultural and ethical frameworks beyond religious boundaries. The tradition honors sacred texts, religious practices, and historical narratives that guide beliefs and behavior for millions of believers worldwide.
