Judaism has its different flavors through the years. Today is no exception.

One might mention sadduccess, pharisees, essenes, qumran community, etc., etc.

Judaism, like Christianity, is "denominational."

Interesting perspective, but it does not answer my questions. What is the authentic, God-instituted expression of Judaism today? Or are you saying that reform Judaism is as authentic as hasidic? Do they all share the same central tenets?

Was biblical Judaism as instituted under the old covenant "denominational"?
