Orthodox Judaism is a branch of Judaism that adheres to traditional interpretations of Jewish law and practice. It places a strong emphasis on strict observance of halakha (Jewish religious laws) and the preservation of Jewish traditions, customs, and rituals. Orthodox Jews believe in the divine authorship of the Torah and view it as a binding guide for all aspects of life. The branch is known for its distinctive practices such as keeping kosher, observing the Sabbath, and wearing specific clothing. In relation to Jehovah's Witnesses Theology, Orthodox Judaism shares the belief in one God, but differs significantly in their understanding of Jesus' role and other doctrines. It also contrasts with Pantheism which posits that God is equivalent to nature and the universe, a view not held by Orthodox Judaism.
