judaic

The origin and history of judaic.

Etymology

Borrowed from Middle French judaique (which became modern French judaïque) and its source, Latin iūdaicus, itself from Ancient Greek Ἰουδαϊκός (Ioudaïkós), ultimately going back to Hebrew יְהוּדָה (y'hudá, "Judah"). On the surface, it looks like Juda + -ic.
