Within Judaism, the Biblical Judah (in Hebrew: Yehuda) is the original name of the Tribe of Judah – traditionally symbolized by a lion. In Genesis, the patriarch Jacob (“Israel”) refers to his son Judah as a Gur Aryeh גּוּר אַרְיֵה יְהוּדָה , a “Young Lion” (Genesis 49:9) when blessing him.[1] In Jewish naming tradition the Hebrew name and the substitute name are often combined as a pair, as in this case.
