''The word “Jew” ultimately comes from Judah, an ancient kingdom centered in Jerusalem, in the 2nd century BCE. But how did the kingdom's Hebrew name, Yehudah (Judah in English), pronounced
ye-hu-DAH, beget “Jew”?''
For the sake of good order: The original Israelite kingdom was called Judah. During the Persian Period the land became a province of that empire, called Yehud; then in the Roman Period, the land became a Roman province called Judea.''
