ISRALITE Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judaea but his mother and her husband Joseph were Israelites - as Israel was a separate kingdom in the north (which contained Nazareth in Galilee, their home town). Judaea was the southern kingdom which was formed when Israel split into two. Therefore, Jesus was a Jew by religion, Judaean by birth, and an Israelite by descent.
