The Israelites, as described in the religious text of the Torah and Hebrew Bible, were a group of people who traced their descent from the biblical patriarch Jacob, also known as Israel. According to religious tradition, Moses was a prophet and leader of the Israelites during their journey out of Egypt and into the Promised Land. As such, the Israelites can be understood as a specific community with shared history, beliefs, and practices that fall under the broader categories of Monotheism and Religions, with Moses serving as a significant figure in their narrative.
