When goyim, or non-Jewish people, try to explain Jewish concepts - or explain away antisemitism - to a Jewish person
Goy: "Roger Waters using the Star Of David on an inflatable pig isn't antisemitic. After all, he has Jewish friends!"
Jew: "Don't sit there goysplaining this to me as if it somehow affects you personally. I've been dealing with antisemitism all my life; I think I know what it is better than you ever will."

When a non-Jew tries to tell a Jew what he or she should do in order to be "really Jewish." An extension of the form "mansplain."
Christopher MacJesuspants: "You know, a real Jew should move to Israel and support building more settlements in Judea and Samaria."
Yehudah Cohen: "Quit your goysplaining! I've had twelve years of yeshiva study, and you've read some fundamentalist websites!"

A rhetorical fallacy employed to deflect serious criticism of Zionist occupation, based on the premise that only Jews can authoritatively discuss events in Palestine
Although Josh used to delegitimize critics by accusing them of anti-semitism and goysplaining, he could not fathom the idea that he was jewsplaining Palestinian suffering from the point of view of someone who sympathized with an occupationist regime and its apartheid policies.
