Abstract:A lot of people know Christianity, Islam and Buddhism, but most of them do not know that Judaism is the origin of world religion. As the oldest religion in the world, the influence of Judaism reflects not only on the development of religion, but also on the literature. In many famous western literary works, there are always some Jewish classic stories, also in English literature works. They use the stories as the examples, background or even the main line of their books. This article is written for the purpose of using these classic stories and well-known English literature works to express and analyze the influence of Judaism on English literature.
Key words: Judaism, Influence, English literature.
