This book explores the development of Judaism between faith and history, tracing the influence of ancient myths and pagan practices in shaping Jewish religious thought. It offers an in-depth critical reading of the Jewish religion, beginning with its origins and the influences of paganism and magic on Hebrew beliefs, all the way to attempts at monotheism and the emergence of monotheism influenced by ancient Egyptian beliefs. The first chapter analyzes the role of amulets and idols in early Jewish worship, focusing on the shift from polytheism to the worship of Yahweh. It also addresses magic among the Hebrews and the connection between religious rituals, magic, and taboo. It also highlights figures such as the Israelite prophets and the stories of creation, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel, revealing the interplay between myth and history in their narratives. In the second chapter, the book reviews the legends of pivotal figures in Jewish history, such as Abraham, Lot, Joseph, and David, and how these narratives contributed to the construction of Jewish identity and consciousness.
