Howard Lozano · Answer 1

a rededication to the authority of scripture, especially the Torah

Explanation:

The Jewish reforms included a rededication to the scripture, especially the Torah.

It is a deviation from the Orthodox Judaism that believes the Torah came directly from God and cannot be changed and must be obeyed to the letter.

Orthodox Judaism had rabbis who were descendants of the Pharisees that teaches from the Torah. They believe in the "mitzvah" which is obeying the commandments.

The Reform Jews believe that the Torah was written to understand God and nature. They believe it is an ancient book, even though it is considered Holy by the Reforms. They believe the laws written therein are not suited to the modern day.
