Who are the “Jews” referred to in verse 13?

Thomas R. Valletta

“The term ‘Jew’ is used in the Book of Mormon with two possible meanings: (1) a descendant of Judah, the son of Jacob (or, perhaps in a more general vein, a member of the house of Israel), and (2) a citizen of the kingdom of Judah of this particular period” (Ludlow, Companion to Your Study of the Book of Mormon, 95).
