The southern kingdom of Israel, known as Judah, consisted of two tribes: Judah and Benjamin. This division occurred after the united monarchy split into the northern kingdom of Israel and the southern kingdom of Judah following the reign of King Solomon. The tribe of Levi was also present in Judah, serving in religious roles, but the primary tribes associated with the southern kingdom are Judah and Benjamin.

After king Solomon Israel split into two kingdom and what?

Solomon and his father David were heads of a loose federation of Hebrew tribes, known to the Egyptians as Habiru - brigands and herders who were in the Judean hills. The stories of their grand kingdoms are much exaggerated - there seem to be no remains of Solomon's many palaces. The successor chiefs split into two groups - the 10 tribes of the north (Israell) and the two tribes in the south (Judea). It was after that that Solomon's successors established real kingdoms, and they were soon taken over - by the Assyrians in the north, and the Babylonians in the south, then both by Persia.


What were two southern tribes called after the split?

After the split of the Kingdom of Israel, the two southern tribes that formed the Kingdom of Judah were Judah and Benjamin. This division occurred around 931 BCE, following the reign of King Solomon, leading to the establishment of two separate kingdoms: Israel in the north and Judah in the south. The Kingdom of Judah maintained its capital in Jerusalem and was known for its lineage of Davidic kings.


Why were they named Jews?

The word "Jew" derives from "Judah," one of the 12 Tribes of Israel. When the Jewish Kingdom split into two after the death of King Solomon, the tribes of Judah and Benjamin formed the Southern Kingdom, which was called Judea, and ruled from Jerusalem by descendants of King David. In 722 BCE the Assyrians conquered and dispersed the Northern Kingdom (hence the "Lost Tribes of Israel"), leaving Judea as the sole Jewish nation, and its people known as Judeans - or, eventually, Jews.

In the Bible what tribe was a part of the Southern Kingdom?

The southern two-tribe kingdom was called Judah and it consisted of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin.

As with any country of mixed peoples/tribes, there will always be some of every tribe remaining in the South due to marriage, business or just their living place.
