Evidence bridge
If Torah Judaism survived without the Trinity, where was belief in the Trinity ever required?

What this article established
That is not merely an argument from silence. It is an argument about covenant obligation.
- Verified: Torah commands exclusive worship of Hashem and repeatedly declares His uniqueness and oneness.
- Verified: Torah does not formulate God as three coequal divine persons or command Israel to confess such a doctrine.
- Possible as Christian theology: progressive revelation later discloses a tri-personal understanding said to remain monotheistic.
- Still requiring proof: why Israel must accept that later ontology as covenantally binding when Sinai never states it.
