Thirteen principles of the faith
Thirteen principles of the faith. Principles of the Jewish faith drawn together by Maimonides. They include the existence of God, the unity of God, the incorporality of God, the eternity of God, that God is the only hearer of prayer, that the prophets were inspired by God, that Moses is the supreme prophet, that the Pentateuch was given in its entirety to Moses, that the Torah is immutable, that God is omniscient, the reality of divine reward and punishment, that the messiah will come and that the dead will be raised (see RESURRECTION). These principles are printed in most editions of the Jewish Prayer Book.
