Sorry if this is the. Wrong sub. I can’t find anything to ask about questions within Judaism that aren’t necessarily having to do with religion: Question About Branches or Denominations Within Judaism

Hi, I come from an area with a very small Jewish population, so my understanding of Judaism is pretty limited. I was raised nominally Catholic, and I remember my Catholic aunt being very openly disdainful toward Protestants, especially Mormons. Interestingly, she’s married to my Jewish uncle and they have three interfaith kids together.

This has me wondering, does Judaism have anything like the divisions seen in Christianity (Catholics, Protestants, Mormons) or Islam (Sunni, Shia)? Like, are there major recognized branches of Judaism that have been historically at odds with each other or have notable doctrinal disagreements?
