Jew / Jews

Posted : 29 Mar, 2014 06:56 AM

Hello everyone:



The word 'Jew' is first mentioned in Esther 2:5

Esther 2:5 In Shushan the palace there was a certain Jew, and his name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite



The word 'Jews' is first mentioned in 2 Kings 16:6

2 Kings 16:6 At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.





Where do the Jew / Jews originate from.



Shalom
