Being Jewish is a religeon. So what is the nationality?

Question

If you know a person is Jewish are they automatically a Hebrew?

Answer 1

When you meet a jewish person, ask them where they are from:

USA?
Israel?
Germany?
That's their nationality.
Hebrew is the language.

Same thing with Muslims...
Where are they from?
UArabEmirates?
USA?
Palestine (Israel to most people)?
That is their nationality.
Arabic is their language.

Answer 2

Hebrew is a language, not a nationality.

And most Jews are NOT Israelis. Israelis are Israelis.

Jews come from all over the world.

Being Jewish is a religion AND a culture.

You can be White speak English or French or Swedish as your first language (I have Jewish family in Sweden.)

You can be Asian or Black and be Jewish.

You can be Hispanic and be Jewish.

Jews have always lived all over the world and look lots of different ways and speak lots of different languages. We are held together by one culture, which includes a shared religion. But not all Jews are religious. Still they are Jews.

Answer 3

Omg are you really actually this retarded??? Jewish people automatically being Hebrew, what does that even mean??? Hebrew is a language that Jewish people learn growing up, or well at least attempt to learn starting at a young age like I did. I guess if you were wondering if there was someone that was born to speak Hebrew that was Jewish, you would be talking about like a Rabi's son or daughter, or someone that is an orthadox jew.

Answer 4

Hebrews is a biblical term used to refer to the Jewish people of that era.
While Israel is a predominantly Jewish country, as you indicate, Judaism is a religion -- not a nationality.

There is no Jewish nationality, any more than there is Christian nationality. Jews are Americans, Canadians, Israelis, French, etc.

Answer 5

This link tells of all the countries/nationalities who are Jewish. The answer to your question is no as Hebrew is a language.

Zick? Can you not make a point without calling a person retarded? You can share knowledge without being rude.

Viva: My professor taught our class that Judism is in fact a religion not a race. There are many ethnic nationalities that are in fact Jewish. Judism is a religious faith like Christianity or Muslim.

Answer 6

No all of my friends in school were Jewish there are different kinds of religion for being Jewish. The first one is Orthodox, then Conservative and the last is reformed Jewish. Orthodox Jewish people live by the Torah rules, conservative live thru them too but not as much and reformed just goes to the Shul for the Jewish Holidays.

Answer 7

No, although I believe all Jews can be granted Israeli citizenship if they want it.
The countries with the largest Jewish populations are the United States, Israel, France, Canada and Great Britain.
Many Jews in America today descend from Russia or Eastern Europe.

Answer 8

No. I am Jewish. You are not automatically Hebrew if you are not from there. If you are from there, you are Hebrew. It is like any other place in the world.

Answer 9

The term "Hebrew" to designate someone Jewish is pretty outdated in common parlance. It used to be that a black woman might be called a Negress (without being prejudiced). But that's outdated too.

Answer 10

there'r jewish in every part of the world just like christain. so you are just like asking, "Being Christain is a religeon. So what is the nationality?"

Answer 11

Being Jewish is not a religion from what I have learned. This is a culture or race of people. Jews may be Christians because of their knowledge of Jesus' life.
