Strong's Lexicon Yehudith: Judith Original Word: יְהוּדִית Word Origin: Derived from יְהוּדָה (Yehudah), meaning "Judah" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yehudith in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the Greek equivalent for Judah is Ἰούδας (Ioudas), Strong's Greek #2455. Usage: The name Yehudith means "Jewess" or "woman of Judah." It is used as a proper name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically referring to a woman who is associated with the tribe or region of Judah. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, names often carried significant meaning and were sometimes indicative of one's heritage or tribal affiliation. The name Yehudith, being derived from Judah, suggests a connection to the tribe of Judah, one of the prominent tribes of Israel. This tribe is historically significant as it is the lineage from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended.
