What was the religion of prophet abraham?

[Subarugirl]

We assume he was originally a pagan. According to the bible, his father was definitely pagan and even made idols … Abrahamic religions are those that worship the God of Abraham, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

Abraham practiced and was the founder of Judaism.

[Asker]

But there wasn't Judasim back then. I assume it was an another single god religion and no one today follows his single god religion.

[Subarugirl]

He founded Judaism...

[Asker]

Moses founded Judaism.

[Subarugirl]

No actually he wasn't, Judaism didn't come into existence until Jews did and that didn't take place until Abraham. Moses was Hebrew, and he followed Levitical law, because Judaism didn't exist yet.

[Asker]

Moses came 600 years after Abraham. Torah is the book of Judasim and it came with Moses.

[Subarugirl]

Right and Abraham founded Judaism... look it up

[Asker]

Did Moses modify the judasim?

[Subarugirl]

Moses organized it and wrote the Torah, or so they say

[Asker]

As far as I am concered there isn't even a historical proof that Moses and Jesus even existed let alone Abraham. Only proof is holy books.

[Subarugirl]

Nooo…. You don’t say… well according to those books if you bother to actually read them you would realize that according to those books Abraham was the founder of Judaism.

[Asker]

So Moses only brought the book for the same religion?

[Asker]

So you are telling me that people were following the religion of Judasim for 4000 years?

[Subarugirl]

Moses wrote the first 5 books of the bible... how ever he did not found Judaism... Abraham did. And most biblical scholars believe that Abraham was born sometime around 1852BC

[Asker]

Were people following the religion of Judasim before Muses?

[Subarugirl]

Abraham... and his family/tribe...

[Waldoe]

I'm impressed, you taught me a lot today, thank you

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

He had no religion. He was just a man God selected from a heathen nation to bring forth a promised child (Issac) through faith and it was accounted towards righteousness because he believed God could do the impossible which cause him and his wife Sarah to conceived in both of their very old age.

Abraham was a foreshadow that all get saved by faith alone and are made righteous in the sight of God by faith alone in His Son Jesus Christ.

He'd've been a proto-Jew. Judaism didn't really exist until Moses's day, and it was pretty Henotheistic until the Assyrian invasion was defeated, too.

[BCRanger10]

He was a pagan prior to God revealing Himself to him.

[jshm2]

He was a deist monotheist. Hence the reason he is regarded as the father of religion.

[Agape93]

Pagan

[John_Doesnt]

He was a Jew

[Asker]

Jew is also an ethnic, isn't it?

[Waldoe]

Jewish

[Asker]

Didn't it come after Moses?

[Waldoe]

the ENTIRE Old Testament is taken from the Jewish "Holy Book"... Christ was a Jew.

YAHWEH

[Asker]

Judasim didn't exist back then, though.

[Opinion Owner]

ABRAHAM

spoke with YAHWEH

there is a reason mount sinai is burnt at the top of it

HE CAME DOWN

[Asker]

Bu no religion such as Judasim, Islam, etc.

[Opinion Owner]

YES before the law was given

he made a promise to Abraham

BEFORE THE BIBLE WAS MADE
