The word "jew" never once appeared in the old testament. Consider that.

Judahite, not jewish.

Read it in the original language, not modern translations.

How about you supply actual sourced information yourself

I literally took your first verse which you claim to include "jews" (because modern translations do) and showed you the bible verse in greek, the original language, showing that the word jew did not appear but that Juhadite did.

ἰουδαῖος

And I am sorry that I cannot provide a source for the claim that a word does not exist in a book, because that is literally impossible.

The identity "jewish" is a modern invention.

The word that you claimed didn’t exist was the word “Jew”.

Unfortunately the term “Jew” is not so easily disentangled from the confusion we are referring to. If we are not careful we end up eliminating the deeper and truer meaning of the term as referenced by Paul:

28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Read the verse in greek. The word "jew" does not appear.

That is so, but word that you claimed didn’t exist was the word “Jew”.

No it wasn't. The word is for Juhadite/Judahite/Judean, not jew.
