religious conversion of non-Jews to become members of the Jewish religion and Jewish ethnoreligious community

Judaization (, ) or Judaification is the process of making something Jewish in character. In the context of Zionism, it is often applied to the Israeli expansion of Jewish settlement in areas with significant Palestinian populations, as in the Judaization of Jerusalem, the Galilee, or the Negev. In this context, it is related to de-Arabization.
