The Israelites of The Bible used the word Gentiles in reference to any persons who were not Israelites. Jesus himself also used the word in this context.

All the races of mankind. The Bible does not emphasize any of today's racial categories. However, it is clear that the term Gentile, a good translation of the Hebrew term Goy, refers to a people (singular) or the peoples (plural). Therefore, the intended meaning of the word Gentiles is "all the (other) peoples" (other than us whoever us may be).
