>Israelite's and Jews ain't the same
Yup. The Hebrews of the bible became the Israelites, and later the Roman provinces named "Judea." But only a subset of them. Others had dispersed in previous waves either via sea (Greeks & Britons) or land/rivers thru the Caucuses. The people known as Jews today were not the Hebrew people, but a neighboring ppl know as the "canaanites," and occupying the Roman province of Idumea, just south of Judea. About 100 yrs BC they infiltrated Judea and took over the government and legal/scribe positions (saducees/pharisees), and assumed the identity of the Judeans. In the bible, they're spoken of , "the people that say they are Judeans but do lie." Only recently (as per anon's accounting) was the word "Judean" translated to mean "Jew."
Then, as now, these people use crypsis to infiltrate and subvert. And boy do they lie.
