Strong's Lexicon
Ioudas: Judas, Judah

Original Word: Ἰούδας
Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine
Transliteration: Ioudas
Pronunciation: ee-oo'-das
Phonetic Spelling: (ee-oo-das')
Definition: Judas, Judah
Meaning: Judah, Judas, Jude.

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name יְהוּדָה (Yehudah)

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H3063 (יְהוּדָה, Yehudah)

Usage: The name "Ioudas" is used in the New Testament to refer to several individuals, most notably Judas Iscariot, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, and Judas (not Iscariot), another disciple. It is also used for Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, and for Jude, the brother of Jesus and author of the Epistle of Jude.

Cultural and Historical Background: The name "Judas" was a common Jewish name during the Second Temple period, derived from the Hebrew "Judah," meaning "praised." Judah was one of the twelve sons of Jacob, and his descendants formed one of the most prominent tribes of Israel. In the New Testament context, the name carries significant weight due to its association with Judas Iscariot, whose betrayal of Jesus is a pivotal event in the Gospels.

STRONGS NT 2455: Ἰούδας

Ἰούδας, Ιουδα, dative Ιουδα, accusative, Ιουδαν (Buttmann, 20 (18)), (יְהוּדָה, from the Hoph. of יָדָה, praised, celebrated; see Genesis 29:35), Judah or Judas (see below);

1. the fourth son of the patriarch Jacob: Matthew 1:2; Luke 3:33; Revelation 5:5; Revelation 7:5; by metonymy, the tribe of Judah, the descendants of Judah: Hebrews 7:14; οἶκος Ιουδα, citizens of the kingdom of Judah, Hebrews 8:8.

2. Judah (or Judas) an unknown ancestor of Christ: Luke 3:26 R G L.

3. another of Christ's ancestors, equally unknown: Luke 3:30.

4. Judas surnamed the Galilaean, a man who at the time of the census under Quirinus (better Quirinius), excited a revolt in Galilee: Acts 5:37 (Josephus, Antiquities 18, 1, 1, where he is called Γαυλανιτης because he came from the city Gamala, near the Lake of Galilee in lower Gaulanitis; but he is called also Γαλιλαῖος by Josephus, Antiquities 18, 1, 6; 20, 5, 2; b. j. 2, 8, 1).

5. (Judas) a certain Jew of Damascus: Acts 9:11.

6. Judas surnamed Ἰσκαριώτης (which see), of Carioth (from the city of Kerioth, Joshua 15:25; Jeremiah 31:41 (); Amos 2:2; (but see BB. DD. under the word ); some manuscripts in John 6:71 (cf. Tdf.'s note at the passage cited); John 12:4, read ἀπό Καριωτου instead of Ἰσκαριώτης), the son of one Simon (who in John 6:71 L T Tr WH; T Tr WH, is himself surnamed Ἰσκαριώτης), one of the apostles of Jesus, who betrayed him: Matthew 10:4; Matthew 26:14, 25, 47; Matthew 27:3; Mark 3:19; Mark 14:10, 43; Luke 6:16; Luke 22:3, 47; John 6:71; John 12:4; John 13:2, 26, 29; John 18:2ff,; Acts 1:16, 25. Matthew (Matthew 27:5), Luke (Acts 1:18), and Papias (cf. Wendt in Meyer's Apostelgesch. 5te Aufl., p. 23 note) in a fragment quoted by Oecumenius on Acts 1:18 differ in the account of his death (see B. D. American edition under the word); on his avarice cf. John 12:6.

7. Judas, surnamed Barsabas (or Barsabbas, see the word), a prophet of the church at Jerusalem: Acts 15:22, 27, 32.

8. Judas, an apostle, John 14:22, who is called Ἰούδας Ἰακώβου in Luke 6:16; Acts 1:13 (see Ἰάκωβος, 4), and, as it should seem, was surnamed Lebbaeus or Thaddaeus (see Θαδδαῖος). According to the opinion of the church that he wrote the Epistle of Jude.

9. Judas, the brother of our Lord: Matthew 13:55; Mark 6:3, and very probably Jude 1:1; see Ἰάκωβος, 3.
