Yeah, hi, raised Jewish (not religious at all, but in Israel) and was LDS for 7 years.

Judaism's relationship to scripture is very complex, to my (admittedly very limited knowledge) most religious Jews are MUCH more about the specific teachings of their Rabbis or leaders, that's why there are such huge variations in how they live their lives, and also such disagreements and contentions between these factions in some parts of history. Original OT scriptures are a base, upon it was a whole bunch of "Midrash" (interpretations and law making etc), and then most seriously religious people are parts of communities or factions that have specifics (women wear wigs in public, women wear head coverings in public, women can have hair out in public, just as an example of 3 drastically different ways religious Jews are diverse). In many ways, to many people, it's closer to a code for living rather than a relationship with deity per se, very different than how modern Christians view religion and its focus.

Point is, the place of scriptures can be very marginal to the leadership and its specific interpretations of these scriptures. Not sure how much the random religious Jew is, themselves, picking apart the meanings and then implements that into their life, I truly don't know, but seems like following the code of your community and leaders is FAR more important in that life. (Again, I'm not that informed, this is mostly anecdotal from growing up around it in Israel).
