Judaism and Greco-Roman

Judaism's sacred text is then Hebrew Bible (a.k.a the Old Testament), which was originally written in the borrowed script of the Phoenicians. The Hebrew Bible tells the story of Abraham, who if he lived, was from southern Mesopotamia. Assyrians conquered the northern kingdom of Israel, pushing those peoples to the east, spreading Judaism. Later, they conquered the southern kingdom of Israel and pushed them to Babylon. This is known as Diaspora, which is a Greek word meaning "dispersion" or "scattering".  Greo-Romans were ruled by a tyrant, who was am absolute ruler who seized power by usually force. The act of having a tyrant was against the normal political traditions of the community. Also, they put a very large emphasis on science and history to encourage logic and observation skills.
