Jews

  
(De Rouwdagen), De treurdagen, or The Mourning Days, by Jan Voerman.

It would be simple to think that when the Bible mentions "Jews" it is simply talking about the descendants of the tribe of Judah, the only ones among the people of Israel who remained in the Holy Land at the time of the Lord's ministry. But like all other peoples, the Jews also have a specific spiritual meaning. "Judah" represents "the Lord in respect to the Divine goodness of His Divine love". Because the Lord loves us so infinitely much, He has an unimaginable desire for good things to come to us and for us to turn to good. The descendants of Judah, then, represent people who are possessed of a similar desire on a human level -- people who genuinely love others, and from that love desire what is good for others. Since we are defined by our loves and gather into churches based on our loves, Jews also represent people in the Lord's true church, and who have doctrinal teachings that are right and true.
