Best Answer

"Jew" comes up several times in the Gutenberg Bible, it likely depends on the particular citation to know if "Jew" is an appropriate translation. However, it is more than likely correct.

What is confusing is that the Hebrew Yehudi (יהודי) means both "Jew" and "Judean", so sometimes, Yehudi is incorrectly translated as Jew when it means Judean.

Why does it matter whether you believe the Bible is the Word of God?

There are at least three positions you can hold regarding the Bible as the Word of God. You can be a Christian or Jew who faithfully believes that the Bible is the true and revealed word of God. You can be a Christian or Jew who believes that the Bible is scripture, but not really the Word of God. Or you can be a nonbeliever, a follower of another religion or an agnostic or atheist, who does not believe that the Bible is more than the writing of good men. Which of these three positions you hold is really up to you, as long as you hold that position sincerely. It is certainly possible to be a Christian and yet not believe that the Bible is the revealed Word of God. After all, it would be hard otherwise to explain the errors and inconsistencies in the Bible.

How many times Jews are mentioned in the bible?

The Bible is all about Jews - almost everyone in it is a jew, or the ancestor of the Jews. It is a history of the Jewish people. The Jews are those who trace their ancestry back to Abraham. So, as the books tell the story of the Jews - even Jesus Christ was born a Jew - they are mentioned throughout the bible. It might be easier to pick out those who are not Jews. However, in the King James version the word - Jew - appears 32 times the word - Jew's - appears once the word - Jewess - appears twice the word - Jewish - appears once the word - Jewry - appears 3 times the word - Jews - appears 243 times the word - Jews' - appears 13 times
