The term Judeo-Christian is used often to the chagrin of both Christians and Jews to describe some historic nexus between the two in establishing the moral zeitgeist. This link is established because most Christians use the Hebrew Bible and Christianity has been heavily judaized by the enemies of the Apostle Paul. The enemies of Grace and Christ in an usurpation of the historical Christian concept of grace that preserved the Apostle Paul and His testimony by the power of the Holy Spirit. To be fair, Judaism to be sure, does use the Hebrew Bible yet for the vast majority it is not the law, rather the Talmud which is a compilation of the Oral laws supposedly given on Sinai with the Ten commandments and the commentary on such laws respectively named the mishna and gemara which collectively make the Talmud. Since it is the Talmud and not the Hebrew Bible that really defines Judaism there really is no nexus between modern Judaism and Christianity in fact the Talmud is actually a reaction to the New Testament and not some prior enlightenment, certainly there were oral laws and tradition post Moses and pre Christ but this was not written down until after Christ and was likely done because of Him. There are Jews who hold fast to the Hebrew Bible they're called the Karaites and if we are going to make up terms to be inclusive it
Should be Karaite-Christian.
