Judaic
- /d͡ʒuˈdeɪ̯.ɪk/
Rhymes with -eɪɪk
Where it comes from
Borrowed from Middle French judaique (modern French judaïque) and its etymon Latin Iūdaicus, from Ancient Greek Ἰουδαϊκός (Ioudaïkós), ultimately from Hebrew יְהוּדָה (y'hudá, “Judah”). By surface analysis, Juda + -ic.
adjective Judaick
-
Pertaining to the Jews, their culture or their religion.
While many consider Chanukah a celebration of Judaic values over Greek values, this is an error. The Maccabees were fighting for the rights of all cultures to exist within the same empire.
