Under traditional Jewish law, Jewishness is inherited through the mother so that only children of Jewish mothers are considered to be Jewish. As a result, a Jewish man who wants his children to be accepted in a traditional Jewish community will seek to marry only a Jewish woman.
Some of the more liberal Jewish communities now accept the children of Jewish fathers as Jewish when they are raised in the Jewish faith.
In addition, there have always been processes through which non-Jews an convert to Judaism. This would permit a non-Jewish woman to convert, marry a Jewish man and have their children recognized as Jewish in traditional communities. It also permits the children of a non-Jewish mother to be raised and accepted as Jews even in traditional communities.
In Judaism there's no such thing as "half-Jewish."
