Etymology

From Middle High German jüdisch (judisch, jüdesch, judesch), from Old High German judeisc, derived from judo, judeo + -isc, the former from Latin iūdaeus (“Judaean, Jew”), from Ancient Greek Ἰουδαῖος (Ioudaîos), derived from Ἰουδά (Ioudá, “Judah”) + -ιος (-ios), the former from Hebrew יְהוּדָה (yəhūḏāh). By surface analysis, Jude + -isch. Doublet of jiddisch.
