Judaism was one of the major religions of Earth. It was practised by the Jewish people.
It forbade the eating of pig products, a practise that continued and evolved even after pigs became extinct. (PROSE: The Mary-Sue Extrusion)
In 73 AD, in Masada, Judea, a band of Jewish zealots were losing in a war against the Romans. Eleazar ben Jair, the leader of the group, devised a plan: they would all kill each other.
When the TARDIS appeared there, Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright joined the Jews, while the First Doctor and Susan Foreman joined the opposing Roman camp. Ian tried to change history by helping the Jews fight, which the Doctor counteracted by helping the Romans, trying to preserve time. In the end, Ian was chosen to kill everyone, and Elezar killed himself. (PROSE: The Last Days
When Christianity came into being, the Jewish leaders - in particular the Pharisees - reacted with hostility. They tried to murder Lazarus and any one else they judged to have had contact with Jesus Christ. (PROSE: Byzantium!)
I have no doubt that they, the Jews that is, consider Christianity to be a danger to them.
In 16th century Europe, when Susan tossed a part of a Liciax ship out of the TARDIS, thinking it was a meteorite, it found its way to Prague and was shaped into a golem. When the golem went on a murderous rampage, they managed to trap it in a Jewish synagogue. (PROSE: Life from Lifelessness)
In 1888, the City of London Police thought that Sir Charles Warren's reference to Ju'wes was to induce a riot against the Jews. (COMIC: Ripper's Curse)
In 1963, Rosa's, a café owned by a German Jew named Rosa, was a popular hangout for Coal Hill School students. (AUDIO: Hunters of Earth)
Amongst the other people not aforementioned who were Jewish were:
- Professor Rachel Jensen, Captain Ian Gilmore's scientific advisor. (AUDIO: Threshold)
- Julius Silverstein, businessman and collector. (TV: The Web of Fear).
- Barnabas, Jewish priest.
- Eleazar ben Jair, the leader of the Jewish rebels at Masada.
New Zion was a Jewish colony. (PROSE: Shopping for Eternity)
Judaism was the precursor to New Judaism. The Tenth Doctor asked the Beast, if he was the Devil of New Judaism, along with that of numerous other religions, to which he responded he was the Devil of all religions. (TV: The Satan Pit)
Behind the scenes
- In the novelisation of TV: The Web of Fear, Julius Silverstein's name was changed to "Emil Julius" in order to remove the offensive Jewish stereotype of the greedy Jewish businessman.
- One of New Zion's towns was Gehenna, (PROSE: Shopping for Eternity) probably named after the Jewish hell. There was also a planet named this, which was inhabited by Devil-like creatures. (PROSE: Mean Streets)
