Is Judaism an I AM based religion?

What is the verdict? I know that Jews believe in God, but to them is God known as I AM? If He is then one could interpret Judaism as an I AM based religion, because God is considered I AM.

I ask because I am fed up with I AM based religions and am looking for alternatives. I AM based religions seem to be based on the wrong principle.

NO! Judaism is NOT I AM BASED. Judaism was founded on the antithesis of I AM. It is based on the one undeniable truth that GOD IS. Unfortunately, in modern times, some authors have tried to interpret Judaism through the lense of I AM but rest assured that the majority of texts are not.

Look for the book 'The Way of God' by Rabbi Moshe Chaim Luzzato. He is well known, revered and respected among all circles of Judaism and he brings the deeper philosophies of Judaism up to the surface in a palateable way.
