To believe in a Jewish God

Since God is non-material in His very essence, to believe in God, as one would believe in one's child or spouse, is to have a disposition toward the world such that God directs that world. 
To believe in a Jewish God is to have a disposition to the Jewish people such that God rules that people. 
We do not believe in God as a thing so much as we believe in His rule over those contexts of which He is essential.
