Ἰουδαῖος

Ioudaîos · Greek · Strong's G2453 · 193 occurrences

The KJV renders 2 different Hebrew and Greek words as “jew”

What it means

Judæan, i.e. belonging to Jehudah

from G2448 (Ἰουδά) (in the sense of G2455 (Ἰούδας) as a country);

How the KJV renders it

jew, of judæa

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.

jew
also renders Yᵉhûwdâʼîy (H3062)
