But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”How do I know Moses wasn’t a Jew?
Because he was from the tribe of Levi, not Judah.
The term “Jew” comes from Judah — one of the twelve tribes of Israel.
Moses wasn’t from Judah.
He was a Levite — born to Amram and Jochebed, both descendants of Levi (Exodus 6:20).
Judaism didn’t even exist yet.
The word “Jew” doesn’t appear until 2 Kings 16:6 —
long after Moses, long after the Exodus.
So calling Moses a Jew is like calling Abraham a Baptist.
It’s not just inaccurate —
It’s Scofield-level historical fiction.
And while we’re at it —
The entire Old Testament isn’t about “Jews.”
It’s about Hebrews…
then Israelites…
then the twelve tribes — Judah being just one of them.
Abraham wasn’t a Jew.
Isaac wasn’t a Jew.
Jacob wasn’t a Jew.
Moses wasn’t a Jew.
None of the patriarchs were Jews.
They were Hebrews, then Israelites —
long before the Kingdom even split, and the southern part became known as "Judah."
So this modern obsession with calling every Old Testament figure a “Jew” is not biblical —
It’s the result of centuries of theological laziness,
and more recently, Scofield brainwashing.
The Bible doesn’t revolve around “Jews.”
It revolves around God’s covenant people —
who are now fulfilled in Christ, not ethnicity.
I see the word jew as the way one worships Abba.. personally I think it has to do with the Hearts of Abbas people it's not a once a week meeting at a temple with strangers I believe it's just an everyday thing so to say like His children just can't help but to worship n spend as much time as we can He always on our mind in everything we do.. well for us anyways but ya I see the word as a way of worship not a ethnicity so to say idk
