Juda
(Ι᾿ούδα, merely the Genitive case of Ι᾿ούδας, the Graecized form of Judah), an incorrect Anglicizing of the name JUDAS or JUDAH in several passages of the Auth. Vers. SEE Jud_1:1. The patriarch JUDAH, Son of Jacob (Susan. 56; Luk_3:33; Heb_7:14; Rev_5:5; Rev_7:5). For the "city of Juda" (i.e. the tribe of Judah), in Luk_1:39, SEE JUTTAH.
2. The son of Joseph, and father of Simeon, in Christ's maternal ancestry (Luk_3:30); probably the same with ADAIAH, the father of Maaseiah, which latter was one of the Jewish centurions who aided Jehoiada in restoring Joash to the throne (2Ch_23:1). B.C. ante 876. SEE GENEALOGY OF CHRIST.
3. The son of Joanna, and father of Joseph (Luk_3:26), another of Christ's maternal ancestors; probably identical with ABIUD, the father of Eliakim, among Christ's paternal ancestry (Mat_1:13); and likewise with OBADIAH, the son of Aman, and father of Shechaniah (1Ch_3:21). B.C. ante 406. (See Strong's Harm. and Expos. of the Gospels, p. 16, 17.)
4. One of the Lord's brethren, enumerated in Mar_6:3. SEE JOSES; SEE JOSEPH. On the question of his identity with Jude, the brother of James, one of the twelve apostles (Luk_6:16; Act_1:13), and with the author of the general epistle, SEE JAMES. In Mat_13:55, his name is given more correctly in the A. Vers. as JUDAH.
