Nope... maybe...Maybe this is one of the reasons .. Anyway, Jews also have their Talmud besides the Bible ... and Talmud these are Jewish books, written by various Rabbis in the first centuries after Christ. The first book is called the Mishnah and is an explanation of the Mosaic law contained in the Bible ("the first major written collection of the Jewish oral traditions known as the Oral Torah.")... and for them the Talmud is more important than Bible so they still follow the Mosaic law..

One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day."
