Unitarforbundet B t D vid Unitarian Union Beth David, The Norwegian Unitarian Church the Hebrew house of David is the denomination of Unitarian Christianity in Norway. The Unitarian Church continues the Christian tradition, which today are living in the Hungarian and Romanian Unitarian Church which is common for the first Unitarian Church in Norway created by Kristofer Janson in 1895, but also places emphasis on practicing a common Jewish heritage, differentiating it from different denominations . The Norwegian Unitarian Church is located close to the Jewish Unitarian Szekler sabbatarianism and probably represent today one of the closest in a religious context called Judeo Christianity . Proximity to Judaism is due to a belief that Christianity must be understood through a Jewish perspective. This is justified historically from the fact that Christianity was to be regarded as one of several Jewish judge that existed before the Romans destroyed Jerusalem in the year 70 AD.
