>>19494926>He's a JudeanTHIS
it is inappropriate to translate the Greek word Ioudaios by the English word “Jew.”
Calling Jesus “a Jew,” Malina says, is inherently misleading because it anachronistically defines Jesus according to a religion based on a rabbinic model of the Babylonian Talmud of the 5th-6th centuries. Malina would prefer to translate the Greek word Ioudaios, as found in the New Testament, as “Judean”in order to break an association with rabbinic Judaism while preserving the sense that it refers to Judean “customs and behaviors.”

For example nafris in Germany can speak german but they're not German in any way.
