Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'secular', derived from the Latin 'saecularis' meaning 'pertaining to an age or generation' or 'worldly', with 'Jew', originating from the Hebrew 'Yehudi' through Latin and Old English. The compound emerged in the 19th and 20th centuries alongside the Jewish Enlightenment (Haskalah) and modern Zionist and cultural movements to describe individuals who identify ethnically or culturally as Jewish without adhering to religious dogma or orthodox practice.
