Note: The Hebrews included in the term g[=o]yim, or nations,
all the tribes of men who had not received the true
faith, and were not circumcised. The Christians
translated g[=o]yim by the L. gentes, and imitated the
Jews in giving the name gentiles to all nations who
were neither Jews nor Christians. In civil affairs, the
denomination was given to all nations who were not
Romans. As used by Mormons, the term gentile designates
any person who is not a Mormon.

Syn: Pagan; heathen. See {Pagan}.
