Meaning of Life in Judaism and the Way to Achieve it

The meaning of life is one of the issues of human interests that can be studied from three perspectives: the purpose, the benefit and the value of life. This Paper studies the meaning of life in Judaism from the perspective of the purpose of life and the way to achieve it.  In this respect, two goals are drawn for man in Judaism: intimacy with God that is the ultimate goal, and creating a fair society that is a worldly goal. In order to get closer to God, it is necessary for man to believe in God and obey His commands and treat people well, otherwise he will be punished in this world and the hereafter. Only in this world can criminals repent and compensate the mistakes in order to be forgiven for their sins and crimes.
