Not really Jewish, since the word “Jew” actually applies only to the tribe of Judah or residents of Judea.

Leviticus applied only under the Law of Moses, the Old Testament or covenant between Yahweh and the descendants of Abraham through his grandson Jacob, also known as Israel.

That old covenant was fulfilled by Christ and is obsolete, although many of its precepts and commands are repeated in the new covenant, which we know as the New Testament.

No one alive today is bound by the Levitical rules.

Point of order.

Paul, a Benjamite, called himself a Jew.

Philippians 3:5
Acts 22:3

Also, read many references that refer to salvation being given to the Jew and the Greek. Does that mean the Israelite missed out?
