The Patriarchs and the Origins of Judaism Assignment Name: __________________________ To be called a "Jew" can have different meaning according to the context of the community. Traditionally, the term "Jewish" is used to reflect 3 different meanings or a combination of the 3: Ethnic Jew: used to refer to an individual or group who can trace their origin directly back to Abraham. This implies sanguinity -- or a direct blood line traced through the mother. Cultural Jew: used to refer to an individual or group who do not share the beliefs of the Jewish religion but who celebrate or participate in Jewish culture. Sanguinity is not necessary. Religious Jew: used to refer to an individual or group who shares a common set of beliefs about God and who participate to some extent in the Religion of Judaism. Sanguinity is not necessary. Assignment As we have learned, the establishment of sanguinity is a fundamental aspect of early Judaism. We have also learned that Jews interpret the Tanakh using the concept of nothing added and nothing taken away. In fact, there is significant amount of time dedicated in Jewish scripture establishing the connection between individual characters and the Twelve Tribes of Israel. After reading the handout The Patriarchs and the Origins of Judaism you will create a Genogram of the early patriarchs of Judaism that begins with the first figure mentioned in the article and ends with the last character mentioned. The genogram must show: 1. all the mentioned characters connected properly within the family tree 2. major accomplishments mentioned for the important characters 3. Timeline that shows important dates (you`ll have to figure the dates out using provided info) Rubric Knowledge Thinking Application Communication Comments: Level 1 Limited knowledge of important events Timeline shows few of the correct dates Few of the characters displayed properly Level 2 Satisfactory knowledge of important events Timeline shows some of the correct dates Some of the characters displayed properly Level 3 Good Knowledge of important events TImeline shows numerous correct dates Most of the characters displayed properly Display is rushed and hard to follow Display lacks neatness and some organization issues Display is neat and organized Level 4 Excellent knowledge of important event Timeline shows almost all of the correct dates Almost all of the characters displayed properly Display is extremely neat and organized showing attention to detail
