Biblical Hebrew terms for the southern (Judea) and northern (Samaria) regions of the West Bank. As official names, they are used by the Israeli government to refer to the West Bank (for example, see the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs website at http://www.mfa.org). In common parlance, they are most often used by Jews who identify with the biblical history of the land and by individuals who support the Jewish Israeli settler movement.  http://www.justvision.org/glossary/judea-and-samaria
