Gentile (from the Latin word gentilis, meaning 'of or belonging to a clan or tribe'), refers to non-Israelite tribes or nations in English translations of The Bible, most notably the King James Version.
It serves as the Latin and subsequently English translation of the Hebrew words גוי (goy) and נכרי (nochri) in the Old Testament and the Greek word ἔθνη (éthnē) in the New Testament.
Today, the primary meaning of Gentile is "non-Jew"."
