The mitzvot (commands) of the Torah may be divided into three categories:
1) The majority of the mitzvot (commands) of the Torah do not obligate non-Jews.
a] not to eat from an animal which is still alive;
b] not to curse God;
c] not to steal;
d] to maintain courts of law;
e] not to commit adultery or incest;
f] not to worship idols; and
g] not to murder.
a] going in the ways of God (Deuteronomy 28:9);
b] giving charity (Leviticus 25:35), and other ethical teachings (such as Leviticus 19:13-18);
c] learning from the lessons of history (Deuteronomy 32:7);
d] not to ignore reproof (Deuteronomy 10:16);
e] not to mindlessly follow mass behavior (Exodus 23:2); and more.
1) The large majority of the Torah's commands such as ritual purity, Shabbat and keeping kosher, are obligatory only for Jews.
2) Non-Jews are expected to learn from the Torah's moral imperatives such as mutual respect (etc.), and worldwide traditions such as the abhorrence of cannibalism (etc).

I agree. Judaism is inextricably tied to the Jews (Hebrew people), and the religion of the Jews is Judaism. One of the dictionary-definitions of Judaism is "The monotheistic religion of the Jews."However, while the two have a great deal of overlap, they are not entirely identical. There are some things about Jews that may not be connected to Judaism (such as some mannerisms). And there are some things in Judaism that are not necessarily limited to Jews (such as the Sabbath, which predated Judaism [Genesis ch.2]; or the prohibition against murder [Exodus ch.20], which, though stated in the Torah of the Israelites, was undoubtedly meant to be promulgated universally).
The Hebrew Bible contains three hundred and sixty-five prohibitions, most of which apply to Jews only. See also:Do some Torah-commands apply to non-Jews?
