No mandated, official, definitive belief
Judaism does believe in an afterlife, but it is not the primary focus of our religion and there is a lot of room for personal opinion about the nature of the afterlife.
Judaism is more concerned about actions than beliefs
Deed rather than Creed

Land of Israel central to JudaismA substantial portion of Jewish law is tied to the
land of Israel, and can only be performed thereLiving outside of Israel is viewed as an unnatural
state for a Jew: exile, diaspora Jews were exiled from the land of Israel by the
Romans in 135 C.E, after they defeated the Jews in a three-year war, and Jews did not have any control over the land again until 1948 C.E.
For thousands of years services (Passover, Yom Kippur) end with “Next year in Jerusalem!”
