The correct response is: They practiced monotheism.
U sure
Yes, I am sure. The early Israelites were known for their unique practice of monotheism, meaning they believed in only one God, while the surrounding cultures in the Fertile Crescent practiced polytheism, or the belief in multiple gods. Additionally, the Israelites were among the first in the region to use iron tools, which gave them an advantage in agriculture and warfare.
