Where does the name Jews came from and where do the Jews come from?
The Jewish people are descendants of Abraham through his son Isaac and grandson Jacob (Jacob was given the name Israel by God, in Genesis ch.35). The name "Jews" comes from Judah, the fourth son of Jacob, since the bulk of the other tribes (other descendants of Jacob) were exiled by the Assyrians and did not return. The descendants of Judah were also exiled (by the Babylonians) but returned to build the Second Temple not long afterwards, and their descendants are extant to this day.
