Goddess in charge inspires book relating to Israelites (7)

I believe the answer is:

hebraic

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'relating to israelites' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'goddess in charge inspires book' is the wordplay.
'goddess' becomes 'hera' (I've seen this before**).
'in charge' becomes 'ic'.
'inspires' indicates putting letters inside (inspire means to breathe in).
'book' becomes 'b'.
'hera'+'ic'='heraic'
'heraic' placed around 'b' is 'HEBRAIC'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hebraic that I've seen before include "from Israelites" , "of Middle Eastern people" , "of Semitic people?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
