Judith, a Hittite wife of Esau (Genesis 26:34)
This personal name, possibly meaning 'Jewess' or 'woman of Judah' though applied to a Hittite, belongs to one of Esau's wives who caused grief to Isaac and Rebekah. She was the daughter of Beeri the Hittite. The relationship between this name and the gentilicial 'Jewish' is obscure; it may represent a foreign name that coincidentally resembles the Hebrew term. Genesis 36 does not list her among Esau's wives, suggesting either variant traditions or that she died without sons.
Senses
