Page "Judaism" Paragraph 11

Scholars throughout Jewish history have proposed numerous formulations of Judaism's core tenets, all of which have met with criticism.

The most popular formulation is Maimonides ' thirteen principles of faith, developed in the 12th century.

According to Maimonides, any Jew who rejects even one of these principles would be considered an apostate and a heretic.

Jewish scholars have held points of view diverging in various ways from Maimonides ' principles.
