Judah
(redirected from Y'hudah)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.03 sec.

Judah

Name used in Graeco-Roman times for the southernmost district of Palestine, now divided between Israel and Jordan. After the death of King Solomon in 922 BC, Judah adhered to his son Rehoboam and the Davidic line, whereas the rest of Israel elected Jeroboam as ruler of the northern kingdom. In New Testament times, Judah was the Roman province of Judaea, and in current Israeli usage it refers to the southern area of the West Bank.
