That's really interesting given how it's an important aspect of most other popular faiths

It definitely depends on the sect of Judaism and the readings and teachings one chooses to look at, but I would argue that the afterlife just isn't a core piece of modern Judaism for millions of Jews. It also isn't a religion that tries to convert others, which is another way it differs from the other monotheist Abrahamic religions
