I believe that God established his covenant with Abraham near the city of Or in Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq).

Judaism originated with God's call upon Abram's life, when he lived in Ur of the Chaldees (near Babylon.). Formal Judaism begins with the 12 Tribes of Jacob (Israel)(Abram's great grandchildren) as they follow Moses through the wilderness of the Sinai to the Promised Land.
(Abram's name was later changed by God to Abraham.)

It didn't all originate at once.
It started in Mesopotamia, with Abraham. It really got going in Egypt, and it finished "originating" in the Sinai Desert.

These were the people who were one of the 12 tribes of Israel. They settled in a land called Judah...and from that bloodline eventually came Jesus.
