\DeclareFixedFootnote{\fnJudea}{Both "Jew" and "Judea" translate the same Greek root, IOUDA\'{I}OS.
"Judea" is literally the feminine form of the adjective, short for "the Jewish land" (`land' being a feminine noun).
Since a Jewish woman also uses the feminine form, whether a given instance points to the people or the place must be inferred from context.
