Judaism against ChristianityJudaism and Christianity developed on the basis of obedience to God, adherence to his rules and intentions and their faithful fulfillment. Since fulfilling God's will is a duty of a Jewish or Christian person, both religions fall into the rule-deontological category. In Judaism, God is seen as having a contractual relationship with the Jewish people in which they must obey his holy laws in return. for their status as chosen people. God rewards or punishes the Jews depending on whether they obey or disobey his will. In some parts of the Old Testament, however, God shows mercy or forgiveness, and in later interpretations God's laws such as the Ten Commandments are followed not only out of loyalty to God but also because of their high moral character. it is placed on the love of God rather than on obedience to his will. People must believe that God is merciful and loves them too. As a reflection of God's love, people must also love others (and all of humanity in general) and forgive their enemies. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus advocates agape, or selfless love (as opposed to eros, or possessive love). , which consists in dedication to the good of others, even to the detriment of our own good and our happiness. People should practice peace and nonviolence, return good for evil and love for suffering (“turn the other cheek”). This leads to a particular conception of justice, called "divine justice", which is based on giving the person what he needs rather than what he deserves (for example, in the case of a crime, redemption rather than equalization). Agapeistic love is also certainly a noble ideal, it is an unstable balance and an easy victim of the "prisoner's dilemma", in which the best alternative for a group of people is not the best alternative for each person in the group.
