Reformed Judaism
Liberal Jewish movement
Reformed Judaism is a liberal branch of Judaism that emerged in 19th-century Germany, adapting traditional practices to modern life.
It emphasizes ethical teachings over strict ritual observance, allows services in vernacular languages alongside Hebrew, and ordains women as rabbis.
In the United States, it's the largest Jewish denomination.
