Doesn't give one single firm teaching on resurrection but some Jews believe them to be true.
the story of Prophets Elijah and Elisha raise two boys from the dead = resurrection. However, Rabbis teach that the boys lived and then died again and that the story tells us of a healing from death to a healthy life, rather than a resurrection to a new immortal and spiritual body which tends to usually be the case. Regardless this is still an example of Resurrection.
There's also a direct reference to resurrection in DANIEL 12:2 which speaks about resurrection taking place at the end of time which is when the messiah comes down/ messianic age '... who sleep in the middle in the dust of the earth will be awake; some to everlasting life'.
MOSES MAIMONIDES: a Jewish philosopher and rabbi who believed in resurrections. He set out 13 principles of the Jewish faith which all should believe and adhere too. Resurrection is the 13th one.
some jews believe the resurrection will be spiritual so they believe in disembodied existence whereas other jews believe it to be bodily and believe in embodied existence.
