100% for Jews. The soul reincarnates unti it fulfils all of the commandments it can.

Though I’m not sure what we say about gentiles though (vis a vis reincarnation.)

I appreciate your response. I learned something new today. I had no idea there were Jews who believed in reincarnation.

I see from some brief Googling that historically, the big proponent of reincarnation in Judaism was Rabbi Yitzchak Luria and his 16th-17th century Kabbalistic rabbinical school in Safed (in the Holy Land.) Apparently what he and they taught is not exactly Jewish "dogma," required to be accepted by everyone, but is considered well within the accepted range of Jewish speculation about the world to come. Like the ideas of Resurrection, living in Heaven, etc. the idea of Reinacarnation is within the approved limits of different end-of-life mystical beliefs or theories.

Again thanks for the heads-up.
