Orthodox Judaism is a sect of Judaism that claims that God's commandments are timeless, and cannot be changed. Orthodox Judaism opposes Reform Judaism and Conservative Judaism, and it instead believes in one mass revelation that occurred thousands of years ago, instead of several revelations being made over time. Schools of Orthodox Judaism include Modern Orthodox Judaism and Haredi Judaism. In 2001, Orthodox Jews made up 50% of the Jews of Britain, 26.5% of Israel, and 13% of the United States.
