Hebrew people are also known as Israelites, because of the biblical tradition that they were descended from the patriarch Israel.
In later times, the Hebrew people of the Babylonian Exile were known as Jews. However, the population of the northern kingdom of Israel had already been assimilated into other Near Eastern cultures and had lost their ethnic identity as Hebrews or Israelites. Conversely, not all modern Jews are descended from the ancient Hebrews.
