Believers in the Old Testament often referred to themselves as the "People of Israel" or simply "Israel." This term highlighted their identity as descendants of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel. They also identified as "God's chosen people," emphasizing their covenant relationship with God. Additionally, terms like "Hebrews" and "Jews" were used in various contexts to denote their identity and faith.
