From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Judah
      praise, the fourth son of Jacob by Leah. The name originated in
      Leah's words of praise to the Lord on account of his birth: "Now
      will I praise [Heb. odeh] Jehovah, and she called his name
      Yehudah" (Gen. 29:35).
     
         It was Judah that interposed in behalf of Joseph, so that his
      life was spared (Gen. 37:26, 27). He took a lead in the affairs
      of the family, and "prevailed above his brethren" (Gen. 43:3-10;
      44:14, 16-34; 46:28; 1 Chr. 5:2).
     
         Soon after the sale of Joseph to the Ishmaelites, Judah went
      to reside at Adullam, where he married a woman of Canaan. (See
      {ONAN}; {TAMAR}.) After the death of his wife
      Shuah, he returned to his father's house, and there exercised
      much influence over the patriarch, taking a principal part in
      the events which led to the whole family at length going down
      into Egypt. We hear nothing more of him till he received his
      father's blessing (Gen. 49:8-12).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Jude
      = Judas. Among the apostles there were two who bore this name,
      (1) Judas (Jude 1:1; Matt. 13:55; John 14:22; Acts 1:13), called
      also Lebbaeus or Thaddaeus (Matt. 10:3; Mark 3:18); and (2)
      Judas Iscariot (Matt. 10:4; Mark 3:19). He who is called "the
      brother of James" (Luke 6:16), may be the same with the Judas
      surnamed Lebbaeus. The only thing recorded regarding him is in
      John 14:22.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Judea
      After the Captivity this name was applied to the whole of the
      country west of the Jordan (Hag. 1:1, 14; 2:2). But under the
      Romans, in the time of Christ, it denoted the southernmost of
      the three divisions of Palestine (Matt. 2:1, 5; 3:1; 4:25),
      although it was also sometimes used for Palestine generally
      (Acts 28:21).
     
         The province of Judea, as distinguished from Galilee and
      Samaria, included the territories of the tribes of Judah,
      Benjamin, Dan, Simeon, and part of Ephraim. Under the Romans it
      was a part of the province of Syria, and was governed by a
      procurator.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Juttah
      extended, a Levitical city in the mountains or hill-country of
      Judah (Josh. 15:55; 21:16). Its modern name is Yutta, a place
      about 5 1/2 miles south of Hebron. It is supposed to have been
      the residence of Zacharias and Elisabeth, and the birthplace of
      John the Baptist, and on this account is annually visited by
      thousands of pilgrims belonging to the Greek Church (Luke 1:39).
