Summary/Abstract: Monotheism is an idea attributed to Jewish origins even though there exists no equivalent term in the Hebrew language. So despite that this statement is a truism and Jews have believed de facto in the one God since the times of Abraham, theology per se has never been a Jewish vocation and therefore it is only through the Western philosophic influence of the middle-ages that Jewish thinkers have systematically delved into the fine points of their monotheistic belief. That does not mean that changes have not taken place that need to be understood.
