[
1913 Webster PJC ]
Jew the name derived from the patriarch Judah ,
at first given to one belonging to the tribe of Judah or to the separate kingdom of Judah (
2 Kings 16 :
6 ;
25 :
25 ;
Jer .
32 :
12 ;
38 :
19 ;
40 :
11 ;
41 :
3 ),
in contradistinction from those belonging to the kingdom of the ten tribes ,
who were called Israelites .
During the Captivity ,
and after the Restoration ,
the name ,
however ,
was extended to all the Hebrew nation without distinction (
Esther 3 :
6 ,
10 ;
Dan .
3 :
8 ,
12 ;
Ezra 4 :
12 ;
5 :
1 ,
5 ).
Originally this people were called Hebrews (
Gen .
39 :
14 ;
40 :
15 ;
Ex .
2 :
7 ;
3 :
18 ;
5 :
3 ;
1 Sam .
4 :
6 ,
9 ,
etc .),
but after the Exile this name fell into disuse .
But Paul was styled a Hebrew (
2 Cor .
11 :
22 ;
Phil .
3 :
5 ).
The history of the Jewish nation is interwoven with the history of Palestine and with the narratives of the lives of their rulers and chief men .
They are now [
1897 ]
dispersed over all lands ,
and to this day remain a separate people , "
without a king ,
and without a prince ,
and without a sacrifice ,
and without an image [
R .
V . '
pillar ,'
marg . '
obelisk '],
and without an ephod ,
and without teraphim " (
Hos .
3 :
4 ).
Till about the beginning of the present century [
1800 ]
they were everywhere greatly oppressed ,
and often cruelly persecuted ;
but now their condition is greatly improved ,
and they are admitted in most European countries to all the rights of free citizens .
In 1860 the "
Jewish disabilities "
were removed ,
and they were admitted to a seat in the British Parliament .
Their number in all is estimated at about six millions ,
about four millions being in Europe .
There are three names used in the New Testament to designate this people , (
1 .)
Jews ,
as regards their nationality ,
to distinguish them from Gentiles . (
2 .)
Hebrews ,
with regard to their language and education ,
to distinguish them from Hellenists ,
i .
e .,
Jews who spoke the Greek language . (
3 .)
Israelites ,
as respects their sacred privileges as the chosen people of God . "
To other races we owe the splendid inheritance of modern civilization and secular culture ;
but the religious education of mankind has been the gift of the Jew alone ."
