Hebraica

Learned borrowing from Late Latin hebraica, neuter plural of hebraicus (“Hebrew”),^[1] from Ancient Greek Ἑβραῖος (Hebraîos), from Hebrew עִבְרִי (ʿiḇrī, “Hebrew”) (likely through Aramaic עִבְרַי (ʿiḇray, “Hebrew”)), traditionally from עֵבֶר ('éver, “Eber”), the ancestor of the Israelites. By surface analysis, Hebra- +‎ -ica.

     "By creating an Hebraica/Judaica collection, the Library of Congress was granting recognition to America's Jewish community," which at the time was growing rapidly, "and likewise highlighting the importance of Jewish civilization in the shaping of our world," said Jonathan Sarna of Brandeis University, the dean of American Jewish historians.
