The faith of the Israelites became known as Judaism.
This is because, though the entire nation was known as Israel, but Rehoboam broke away and called his own kingdom Israel, taking 10 of the original 12 Israelite tribes with him. The two tribes left in the south were Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, the far larger of which was Judah, so the southern kingdom came to be known as such. Therefore, those living in Judah, were called Jews. After the Babylonian exile, the kingdom of Israel to the north was dispersed, and the 10 tribes of that kingdom were lost, leaving only Judah to carry on the Israelite faith. Thus, the only people left who believed in the God of Abraham were those from Judah - Jews. Accordingly, the religion they believed in was called Judaism.
Judaism. (However, it is also true that in ceremonial practice, Judaism has evolved and developed practices that would be strange to the original Israelites, nonetheless, the roots of those practices, which is the faith, or belief system, is the same.)

Judaism first. When Jesus Christ was on earth, was crucified, and resurrected back to life, some people converted to Christianity.
In ancient times, religions did not tend to have special names, but were simply identified with the people who followed that religion, or with the god of the religion. Since the religion of early Israel and Judah were very similar, modern researchers simply refer to the common beliefs as the Hebrew religion. It is very likely that a visitor to Israel would simply have spoken of the 'Israelite religion' and a visitor to Judah would simply have spoken of the 'religion of Judah'. The religion of Judah is now known as Judaism.We now know that the early religions of Israel and Judah were remarkably similar to the religions of other West Semitic nations and the same gods were worshipped, but the Israelites and Judahites also worshipped a national God they called YHWH (Yahweh). Mark S. Smith (The Early History of God) says that according to the available evidence, Israelite religion in its earliest form did not contrast markedly with the religions of its Levantine neighbours in either number or configuration of deities. He says that in the Judges period, Israelite divinities may have included Yahweh, El, Baal and perhaps Asherah as well as the sun, moon and stars. He adds the goddess Astarte for the monarchical period.
Because they were the descendants of Yaakov (Jacob), who was also known as Israel.
Judasim is the religion practised by the Jews. The reality is that the faith practised by Abraham should be known as the religion practised by all the Hebrews. All Jews are Hebrews but not all the Hebrews are Jews. Jews are the descendants of one of the tribes of Israelites. The other 11 tribes are not to be found. They are called the missing tribes. Later the faith practised by Jews came to be known as Judaism. The Samaritans still practice the ancient religion of the Hebrews. The Temple built by King Solomon centres around the Temple while the Samaritans believe that they have nothing to do with the Temple. During Christ's time the Samaritans believed that their Lord dwelt in Mountains.
