Who Are The Gentiles In The Bible

A Gentile is someone who is not a Jew. Followers of all religions except Judaism are gentiles. A gentile nation would be a non-Jewish state. There is only one Jewish state, Israel. So examples of gentile nations would be India, China, Russia, and even the USA. Secular states like USA and India are also gentile nations as the government does not follow any particular religious doctrine even though in the case of the former, Christianity is the predominant religion and, in the case of the latter, Hinduism.
