As for Judaism in general, it is so filled with stupid oral traditions that I actually even consider it worse than the absurdities of Mormonism. For example:

The "oral traditions" came from the Pharisees, who started what is today called modern Rabbinic Judaism. There was a reason why Jesus had so little affection for the Pharisees.

The Pharisees allow their academics to interfere with their education.

Very sophisticated arguments might be levied against identifying Jesus Christ as the Son of God, but won’t prevail when attempting to convince God Himself.

Instead, one might ask themselves, “Why do I want to argue Jesus Christ isn’t identifiable with God?”

The answer is simply arrogance and ignorance.

Like God creating the heavens and the earth by means of 22 Hebrew letters, for instance. "By the word of the Lord were the heavens made," "For he spake, and it was done," Psalms 33:6, 9, the "word of the Lord," and "he spake," in this passage Kabbalist Judaism interprets to mean God uttering the 22 Hebrew letters.

Maybe the Kabbalists on this thread will care to tell us which Hebrew letter God spoke to create the land, which one the seas, the vegetation, etc.
