The people we call jews today were Edomites, which were integrated into Judea ~130 years before the time of Christ. These specific people and their descendants weren't fully descended from Adam and Eve. That's an important distinction people seem to not understand, and the reason Christ rejected them, AND the reason for their behavior, as culture and behavior are downstream from race.
The word jew shouldn't even be in the OT or NT.

They didn't call their religion "jewish". The only association between "jew" and their religion was that they were living in the province of Judea. And they weren't called jews, they were Judeans -- inhabitants of the province of Judea.
Paul/Saul literally writes "I am a jew" and "I am a pure-blood descendant from Benjamin." The only way these statements can be true at the same time is if "jew" in his language did NOT mean he was descended from Judah. WHICH IS WHAT IT SAYS IN GREEK -- "JUDEAN" **not** "jew".
As far as the name of their religion -- they would use Moses' name or God's name to describe it. Judah had NOTHING to do with it.
And they still did it not a long time ago. "Judea declares war on Germany" was when, 1933? Everybody that Judea is about jews.
Also the key to understand jews (as we know them) is that they are proficient shapeshifters and they utter the words that make people give them what they want.
