Cuddy

Can anyone tell me in which episode and how it was established that Cuddy is Jewish?  Or is this just fanon?

Um, I've never heard that before. It must be fanon.

At one point House mentions her using JDate, specifically, instead of just a dating site. Also, there's a menorah in her house in "Half-Wit." Also I feel like there's something else, but I can't remember it and Wikipedia isn't helping. Basically, she's Jewish but it's not discussed, like with Wilson.

OH YEAH, I was thinking of this exchange:

House: "An eye for an eye, LSD and antidepressants. Everything in balance. Buddhists call it karma and Christians call it the golden rule, Jews call it— I don't know. Rabbi Hillel said something poignant. Universe always settles the score."
Cuddy: "Does it?"
House: "No, but it should."

House mentioned jdate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JDate) to her at some point; that would certainly suggest her being Jewish!

I´m also quite sure that in "Who´s your Daddy?" when House was talking about possible donors for Cuddy the dialogue went along the lines:

Cuddy: I’m leaning toward 613.

House: Oh, sure. Go with the Jewish number.

This has apparently something to do with the Jewish religion. I´d say it´s the number of the commandments but I´m so not sure. It would make much sense to say something like that to a goy, would it?

Okay, I looked it up. It´s what I said. Funny thing is commandment 613 (the last one of the Mitzvot) says you should aim to destroy the seed of Amalek. And Amalek being a jewish tribe which is basically claimed responsible for the mixing of the existing tribes and therefore foes of the Israeli people.
Interesting in the context of the episode dealing with the possibility of two interracial relationships, isn´t it?
