1 definition by Yehudi
A member of the widely dispersed people descended from the ancient Hebrews and sharing an ethnic heritage based on Judaism.
People who practice Judaism should be called Judaists(after all that was the original term for someone who practiced Judaism), not Jews because almost half of Israel's Jewish population is secular(non-religous). But they still consider themselves Jewish because Jews are an ethnic group, not a RELIGIOUS GROUP.
