Halachically Jewish means Jewish according to Jewish law. In Jewish law, a child born to a Jewish mother or someone who has converted to Judaism is considered a Jew; one does not have to reaffirm their Jewishness or practice any of the laws of the Torah to be Jewish. According to Reform Judaism, a person is a Jew if they were born to either a Jewish mother or a Jewish father. Also, Reform Judaism stresses the importance of being raised Jewish; if a child is born to a Jewish father and was not raised Jewish then the child is not considered Jewish. According to Orthodox Judaism, the father's religion and whether the person practices is immaterial. No affirmation or upbringing is needed, as long as the mother was Jewish.

It may be noted that despite remaining technically Jewish, one who does not practice the religion is not viewed as a Jew in traditional Orthodox Torah-sources, unless they repent ("Our nation is a nation only through its Torah" [Saadia Gaon in his Emunot veDei'ot; and many similar sources]).

To be Jewish can mean you either practice the Jewish religion, or are from a Jewish decent. It is both a race and a religion. Someone that is culturally Jewish may not practice the religion, but has a Jewish heritage. Likewise, people that do practice the Jewish religion do not have to be culturally Jewish, or have Jewish ancestors.
