The best statement that explains how Jewish religious traditions created a foundation for later civilizations’ traditions is:
Judaism introduced the concept of monotheism, which set the foundation for worshipping more than one God.
However, it seems that the last part of that statement contains a contradiction. The correct interpretation should emphasize that Judaism introduced the concept of monotheism, which set the foundation for later religions like Christianity and Islam that also emphasized the worship of one God.
Thus, a corrected phrasing could be: "Judaism introduced the concept of monotheism, which set the foundation for the later worship of one God in Christianity and Islam."
If selecting from the given options, the first statement about the Torah's influence would be the best choice in the context of foundational religious texts.
