Maimonides states (Foundations of Torah, ch. 8):

Quote:
The Jews did not believe in Moses, our teacher, because of the miracles he performed. Whenever anyone's belief is based on seeing miracles, he has lingering doubts, because it is possible the miracles were performed through magic or sorcery. All of the miracles performed by Moses in the desert were because they were necessary, and not as proof of his prophecy.

What then was the basis of [Jewish] belief? The Revelation at Mount Sinai, which we saw with our own eyes and heard with our own ears, not dependent on the testimony of others... as it says, "Face to face, God spoke with you..." The Torah also states: "God did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us -- who are all here alive today." (Deut. 5:3)



Judaism is not a religion based on some third party telling tales of miracles. Judaism is based on KNOWING. Judaism is based on personal eyewitness experience of every man, woman and child, standing at Mount Sinai 3,300 years ago.
