∙ 12y agoJudah was the 4th son of Jacob (Israel). The basis for their belief system was originated at Mount Sinai in the wilderness according to Exodus 19. Many other additions to their beliefs were made during their time in the wilderness as well. This group consisted of all the tribes of Israel, called Israelites (which included Judah). Later, after the reign of Solomon, the nation was divided, two and a half tribes of Israel stayed with the Divinely appointed center for worship in Jerusalem (which included the tribe of Judah), these two and half tribes are the majority of what we call Jews today The term Judaism was first used to differentiate it's belief system from Christianity.

∙ 16y agoThe Bible records that Abram of Ur of the Chaldees was the first man to change his life according to God's direct orders. He traveled to "the land of Canaan" which is current day Israel. For over 2,000 years it was the land of Israel, which means that Abraham's grandson Israel carried on the instructions God gave Abraham. Israel's 12 boys were the beginning of the nation of Israel. See Genesis in the JudeoChristian Bible.
