The Jewish Chronicle ("The JC") is a London Jewish newspaper. Founded in 1841, it is the oldest continuously published Jewish newspaper in the world. It appears every Friday (except on days which are Jewish festivals, when it appears earlier in the week) providing news, views, social, cultural and sports reports, as well as editorials and a spectrum of readers' opinions on the letter page. The JC also sponsors the Jewish Sunday league system in London, known as the Maccabi Football League.

It is independent and is owned by the Kessler Foundation, a charitable trust which has overall control of the newspaper and its assets.

During the 1970s, its circulation was over 50,000. Today, it is less than 35,000, a decline which can be attributed to the gradually-shrinking Anglo-Jewish community, the growth of the orthodox Baal Teshuva movement and the preference of younger readers for free online news sources. The newspaper's own website includes searchable archives of all editions from the first to the present, making it valuable for Anglo-Jewish genealogists and historians.
