Who this is
Israelite denotes a member of the covenant people descended from Jacob, who was renamed Israel, and the word is used across both Testaments as a marker of that shared identity. Paul, for instance, appeals to his own status as "an Israelite" when defending God's continued faithfulness to his ancient people in Romans 11.
