In Judaism is God seen as an entity that is always located in a physical body, or is he seen as being everywhere?

Christians will often tell me that God is everywhere, but at the same time he has a body of sorts. Is the Judaism God similar to the Christian God in this sense? I am curious if there are any differences.

In Judaism, G-d has no human body. This is a Very Big No-No in Judaism. He is everywhere and in all things so in that sense, He "has a human body" because He is in our bodies and hearts as humans. But He has no form of His own, like said J*sus.

God has no body, and is therefore everywhere, but we do sort of believe that He put a bit of Himself in every person, so that we should learn to ber like Him. But not that He is ever really located in something physical.

He evolves in Judaism from the white haired old man repleat with long white beard atop the mountain to the angry jealous monster of throughoutthe rest of the old testamant ...
and what difference could this possibly make is the question that occurs to me as relevant. Since this is imaginary and need not be logical or real they can have it how ever they please.
Do we really need fairy tales to lean on these days ?

Deuteronomy 6:4
"Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!"

John 4:24
"God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

Christians believe in the Trinity, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each equally God, each seperate persons, all one God.

God is Spirit, Jesus took a body to become human.
Philippians 2:5-8
5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus,
6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,
7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.
8 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

Of course, Jews did not accept Christ when he came.
John 1:11-12
11 He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.
12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name.

Jews viewd God as their Father:
Isaiah 64:8
But now, O LORD, You are our Father, We are the clay, and You our potter; And all of us are the work of Your hand.

Jesus said
Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." John 3:3

John 3:14-16
14 "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up;
15 so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life.
16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
