Are Jews a race? My thought is that no, they are not, but they do in fact share similar genetics and people (such as hitler) have been referred to as 1/4th jewish. This imlpies that being a jew is a race because you can't be 1/4th catholic or 1/8 atheist.

Mostly Jews are a single race.They also believe that Israelites are superior humans and have eternal covenant with God. However, people can convert to judaism, but its not easy, with some tough conditions

A Jew is a blood decendant from Jacob in the Bible (Old Testament) who was given a new name "Israel" where the Jewish religion came from. When you talk about race, it mainly refers to colors. The Chinese are of yellow race. The Filipinos are of the brown race. The American Indians are of the Red race. We have most Americans who belong to the white race. and so on.....

It refers to either the semitic race you know as Jews, or to the religion Judaism..
