Judah was the fourth son of Jacob (Israel) by Leah. He became the leader amongst the sons. The tribe of Judah is named after him, and many of the modern Jews are descended from him.
Matt 1:2,3 lists Judah as an ancestor of the Messiah.
The meaning of the name Judah is "thankful". Judah's mother Leyah said the word upon Judah's birth. The exact phrase was "This time I will thank the Lord," and named her son Judah. It comes from the word "Todah" which is "thank you". Interestingly enough, the word "Hod" in Hebrew means majesty, which is a similar root to the Hebrew "Yehuda" or Judah, and the royal line also passes through the tribe of Judah. What came first is a bigger question, "hod" or "yehuda".

Judah. The full 12 tribe nation of Israel spilt after the death of Solomon. The northern nation was still called Israel and was 10 tribes. The southern nation was predominantly the tribe of Judah, and they would occasionally war against each other.
The nation that threatened Judah during the time of Jeremiah was Babylonia, specifically the Neo-Babylonian Empire led by King Nebuchadnezzar. The Babylonians invaded Judah multiple times and eventually destroyed Jerusalem in 586 BCE, leading to the Babylonian exile of the Jewish people.
It began in the Kingdom of Judah, in the city of Jerusalem, in the modern nation-state of Israel.
During the period of the later Kingdom of Judah and the Exile, the Tribe of Benjamin merged into the much larger Tribe of Judah, but this was more of a cultural absorption than any proclamation or intent.
yep,The real truth is the word Jew has its meaning from Judah and could only mean jew=Judah not any other tribe.
