Definition
Citizens or natives of Israel, the modern nation-state in the Middle East.
Etymology
From 'Israel' + plural suffix '-is'. 'Israel' comes from Hebrew 'Yisra'el', traditionally interpreted as 'God wrestles' or 'wrestles with God', referring to Jacob's biblical encounter with an angel after which he was renamed Israel.
Kelly Says
The name Israeli connects modern citizenship to one of history's most profound spiritual encounters - Jacob wrestling with an angel and being renamed Israel, meaning 'one who wrestles with God'. This gives the modern nationality a unique depth, as every Israeli carries a name that speaks to the human struggle with the divine.
