DEUT78 In Judaism, faith is grounded in memory. Hebrew Scripture does not command belief in God, but enjoins us to remember experiences of the divine. Belief in God is not simply a personal endeavor. It is an effort accumulated over the centuries; it is the achievement of a continuity of the ages. Jewish belief is a recollection of events in the life of the Jewish people. Not abstract ideas, but memory of concrete events is the touchstone of Jewish belief: (this verse). In the Passover liturgy for the Seder, called the Haggadah, one encounters the notion that Jewish belief is predicated upon memories rather than upon inferred propositions.
