3065. Yehudi
Strong's Lexicon
Yehudi: Jew, Judean

Original Word: יְהוּדִי
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Yhuwdiy
Pronunciation: yeh-hoo-DEE
Phonetic Spelling: (yeh-hoo-dee')
Definition: Jew, Judean
Meaning: Jehudi

Word Origin: Derived from יְהוּדָה (Yehudah), meaning "Judah"

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2453 (Ἰουδαῖος - Ioudaios): Refers to a Jew or Judean, used in the New Testament to describe those of Jewish heritage or faith.

Usage: The term "Yehudi" refers to a member of the tribe of Judah or, more broadly, to someone belonging to the kingdom of Judah. Over time, it came to denote anyone of the Jewish faith or ethnicity, especially after the Babylonian exile when the identity of the Israelites became more closely associated with the tribe of Judah.

Cultural and Historical Background: The term "Yehudi" originally identified members of the tribe of Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. After the division of the united monarchy, the southern kingdom was known as Judah, and its inhabitants were called Yehudim. Following the Babylonian exile, the term expanded to include all Israelites who returned to the land and those who maintained their faith and cultural identity in the diaspora. The identity of the Yehudim became central to the Jewish people, especially during periods of foreign domination and cultural assimilation.
