You're right. There is evidence. Japanese Government and the Japanese don’t punish the Jew who gets The visa from Chiune Sugihara, and visited Japan (as it is an important thing, they write it).
They just did a DNA test on the japanese natives (the ones that didn't immigrate from china a thousand years ago) and found that they have similar proteins that are found in those in africa and the middle east.
Well there is a Hata clan among the Wolayta and Woletegna-speaking people of Ethiopia. They also have bowing customs very similar to the Japanese form of bowing, where they bend from the waist and perform bows where the depth of the bow appears to be in proportion to the level of respect the one bowed to is regarded to deserve. So for God, they give the deepest bows. Interestingly, there is a Japanese researcher who has been very involved in researching this culture; and I wonder whether it is due to the fact that he has realised their probable ancient connection.
There is also a region within the Tembien region of Tigray called "Tamkwa", which is a very agricultural and forested region. My friend from this region was surprised to learn that the Japanese word for "farmer" is "tanaka", which she believes may be a sort of cognate for "Tamkwa".
There is a "Soran Bushi" in sailor's song handed down from ancient times in Japan. Lyrics of this "Soran Bushi" begin with "Yaren, Soran," but the meaning of the word is not the case in any dialect of Japan, it is not being interpreted in Japanese. However, it will "Sing! Songs of joy" in it translates "Yaren, Soran (yaranen solan)" in the ancient Hebrew. The "Soran Bushi", there is the theory that, in the song was a prayer to God by the Jews, which aims to the Promised Land.
The correct ancient form of these words is as below: Yaren = Haren = Harinu Soran = Sirin = Shirim Harinu Shirim in Biblical & Literal Hebrew is orthographically written as below: הרינו שירים And it does mean what you meant. Good job!
@@kellerkemstore358 Although not mentioned in this video, there is a traditional Japanese song called "Soranbushi" in Japan. The lyrics of "Soran Bushi" begin with "Yaren Soran", but the meaning of the words does not apply to any Japanese dialect and cannot be translated into Japanese. However, the ancient Hebrew word "yaranen solan" translates to "Sing! Song of joy!" There is a theory that "Soran Bushi" was a Jewish prayer to God for a promised land.

I have heard about it - "Yaren Solan" (also translates to - lead singer will sing). Also the word "Samurai" would translate into the Hebrew words - "Shomer Haei" - the guardian of the Island.

There has been a great deal of research on the historical Judeo-Japanese relations by various scholars inside and outside Japan, notably the books of Joseph Eidelberg, an Israeli anthropologist. The resemblance between the katakana alphabet and Hebrew is very remarkable, as well as the number of words in the 2 languages which closely resemble each other in both pronunciation and meaning.
+eshaoul55 katakana was invented by samurai, not invented by jews. let me show you an example, the katakana of --> O "オ" is a radical taken away from this character --> Close "閉" and many others, just like katakana --> Ka" カ" that was taken from many different kanjis with such radical like --> Man"男" and used separated as a katakana word, nothing jewish here.
+JoJoStar Brando katakana was rather invented in Nara-period, i.e. 1200-1300 years ago. At the time "samurai" clans did not came into being yet. Kibino Makibi was said to be the person who invented katakana. I bet his name is not of a japanese origin.
Koreans are familiar with the history of Israel and why the people of Israel don't know the history of Korea? They don't know what Japan has done to the Koreans, I know that the people around me . Jewish do like Japan and the business is going to have a good relationship with Japan, I know that the Japanese market is bigger than the Korean market. But if you still remember the miserable history of ours, please don't forget. The Japanese government did not apologize to the Korean sexual comfort women. Many Japanese Nazi soldiers still live in Japan and their descendants are growing. In Japan, the Nazi symbol is very common and used in good meaning. I really do not understand all this. People need the justice
This is true. In ancient time, before Nara era some middle east people came to Japan. And Japanese DNA has D2 DNA. D2 DNA means blood from east side of mediterranean sea. It might be Jewish DNA. And also, Katakana's reading pronuciation, and shape is 98% similar to Hebrew sign. Pronunciation of the sign is same too. In shinto ceremony, there are so many similarities between Japanese shinto and Judaism. Actually the people who came to Japan from Hebrew country were not many. But they influenced ancient Japanese. So pieces of Judaism were kept to preserve in Shinto.
Thank you for your comments. We cannot say for sure the size of the group, but the evidence suggests there were multiple migrations of varying sizes over a long period of time. DNA evidence cannot show us the entire picture. You're correct about the language, but the cultural connections reach much deeper then people realize!

My friend from Canada is Jewish, I should fly him up here. He would love it because he loves Japanese culture and Japan is always a country he wanted to see.
Thank you for your comment. Yes Rosh Hodesh is a monthly holiday. But in ancient times the signal fires were lit only once a year on the first New Moon after the New Year. The signal fires at Kurama are lit on the same New Moon as the ancient Israelites.
Hi watched and feeding back from Japan. This is very interesting aspect to take a look the culture that I was born to. My family has been practicing Shinto for generations and I am pretty proud of taking a part to protect the culture. The world is full filled with mystery. Maybe there was some Jewish people thousands of years ago, maybe not. But I am glad to hear someone from outside of our country shows interest in what our ancestors have been practicing and protecting and found something common between two different culture which was grown thousands of miles a part. Researching ancient history and culture brings us spirits of adventure right? Thank you for sharing your interesting theory
Thanks for watching and thanks for your comment! Please watch the newest video on the subject and please let me know what you think! The Mystery of Jews in Japan ~ Susanoo-No-Mikoto Part I ua-cam.com/video/2Ae3rnNQqcM/v-deo.html
Rosh Chodesh - the New Moon Festival - is a minor festival observed every month on the New Moon (not the full moon shown in the video). The signal fires were not a part of the celebration, but a notification that the High Priest had declared that the crescent had been seen - therefore everyone knew the correct days of upcoming holidays.
Some note the resemblance between cathoric ritual and Japanese tea ceremony. It is possible that ancient Japanese just borrowed/imported the procedure of Jewish ceremony .
As a Jew, I find the idea that Judaism inspired this festival ludicrous in the extreme. There are many shared religious, architectural, etc. traits shared across almost every religion and ethnicity worldwide, which have existed since before intercontinental travel or trade existed.
Worship at the ancient Grand Shrine of Ise in Japan is claimed by some to be ancient Judaeic as performed in the First Temple (of Solomon, the son of David) at Jerusalem. Many of the "Mudras" (hand expressions) and carved symbols seen in this video are from ShriVidya (The escoteric Brahminical Indo-Aryan rite). Intriguing: Where did all that is common in all three forms of worship originate from?
The new thing people like to shout is "cultural appropriation." Personally I believe things like this just show how we all are connected regardless of which ethnicity we think did it first. At some point in the history of humanity we were all linked by a basic spiritual kindred. But due to our greed and other flaws we over complicated by trying to name and rank the importance our beliefs & deities (IE Religion.)
Actually the matzoh ball predates the dango by 1200 yrs,according to archeological findings at the Technion in Israel,and carbon dating results from diggings both in Saga,Japan and also near the Red Sea.
Palestine* The only Israel that was was the Phoenician capitals of Tyre, Sidon, Acre, Byblos and Carthage. The Pharoanic line were Phoenician, their Magi were the Temple Priests, Jews were the "Exiled" Plutarchs of Egypt, taking the Nation's wealth with them as they escaped the environmental collapse caused by the Thera Eruption. The Phoenicians also founded Greece, Paris, Iberia, Wales, Scotland, Scandinavia, Mesoamerica, Alaska, Hawaii, Japan, Indonesia, Peru, Australia, and New Zealand The proof for all to see is they all share the same cultural traditions, musical instruments, and Metonic Calendar, the same Calendar the Pyramid of Cheops and all other Megalithic sites are based upon
The Israelite Diaspora to Japan www.worldturtle.com/the-israelite-diaspora-to-japan/ Thank you to all those who have watched and commented on this video. Please know that I have taken all serious comments to heart and continued my research over the past ten years. The result is my new blog! If you are looking for more information on this subject please follow me there!
A long time ago, there was a tribe that came across the Silk Road, migrated across the sea, and with the permission of the Japanese emperor, settled in Japan, and thereafter called themselves the Hata. It is said that the Hata clan created the system of Shinto and shrines. Some say that the Hata may be the descendants of the ten lost Jewish clans.
Thank you for your comment! This could be true...but how did the Hata Clan know to go to Japan? Because there was an earlier migration! Perhaps the "Lost Tribes" were never really lost, and instead knew exactly where they were going.
@@WorldTurtleMedia Yeah, people with ancient Jewish connections seem to have crossed over about three times. There are villages and ruins that have been influenced by the Naftali people on Awaji Island. There are also traces of ancient Jewish tribes in Kochi Prefecture.
Yes, and it seems "Yayoi" could be named after "Yah" which is short for the name of Adonai, which is represented as Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey and referred to as the Tetragrammaton by scholars. And it is common in Greek to have an "-oi" suffix to indicate "the people of ____". So to me, "Yah-oi" is a combination of "Yah" and "Greek" suffix "-oi". The place were such fusion of Greek and Hebrew might well have occurred seems to be in ancient Sheba, where they spoke Hebrew, Tigrinya, Ge'ez, Akkadian, and Greek. I think many of the ancestors of the Japanese are probably from Arabia and the horn of Africa, especially as many of their names are very similar to those in the Wolayta and other Ethiopian regions in particular.
I'm Japanese . I've been very very interested in this theory for decade, and I read many about it in Japanese. I somewhat believe that some part of ancient lost ten tribes might have reached to Japan. And some occultic Japanese claims this is true. But I wonder, how about in Israel? how many people in Israel believe this theory? And what institute is doing the research? Are there any books or documents about it written in English? Sometimes I doubt that this is the inside theory that only Japanese is excited by their imagination. SO I want to know the reaction outside of Japan.
@@RayalWorldConz Yeah black people are the Israelites and the Egyptians and the cannanites and the Greeks and the Asians and the Mayans. Smh. No such thing as race by the way
Professor Avigdor Shachan, who has researched the "Lost Tribes" of the ancient northern kingdom called "Israel" for half a century - he definitely does believe in this. In fact, since he has researched it for so long, it is a proven theory.
I would consider the possibility if someone could come up with some real evidence other than coincidence and the occasional culture copying Japanese tend to do.
I agree with it. because some basic verbs of japanese are similar with hebrew ones. In case of English, English ones similar with germany. from linguistic view, very interesting. But people from Israel might be a few part of japanese.
@WorldTurtleMedia You are welcomed. I totally agree with you. But one thing I would like to point out. Ainu people had come in Japan through Alaska and Russia, not Korea and China. That is true. But many people are misunderstanding that Ainu people had lived in only Northern Japan. In reality, Ainu had lived in all areas in Japan and established first country in Kyushu (west Japan) . But later, many Asian called "Yayoi-jin", had come in Japan through Korea and China and other Asian countries.
I guess the other Japanese are same as me, I don't really know about it. But I know the caucasians who are shorter and last names contain a ' man' are Jewish.
Even as far as Peru there are some similar Inca words that some people speculate are related to ancient Hebrew. Just as I mentioned, coincidences doesn't make something "true" or "valid". I could mention thousands of words that are found in many languages of the world not even remotely connected and that doesn't make them even related.
They are probably not "coincidences" at all. Many native populations have many religious rituals that would not have any provable origin apart from the Israelites based on the Biblical testimony. My friend, who is from the Muskogee tribe, tells me that Cherokee, for instance, is high Hebrew. In regards to Peru, there are languages there that have multi-tonal characteristics that are only known to exist in Omotic languages (found in the horn of Africa) as well as in China. This tells me that they share a common origin, probably. As a matter of fact, many Peruvians actually look similar to people from the Middle East and Ethiopia.
Rosh Hodesh is every month, not once a year. And the fires lit on the mountain tops were simply a way of signaling to other Jews far away that the new moon has been seen, and therefore the start of Rosh Hodesh. Today, with technology, we know exactly when Rosh Hodesh is and there is no ceremony or anything to do with fire.
The similarity between the Japanese tokin and the Jewish tefillin can hardly be a coincidence, and so can the similarity between the Japanese katakana and Hebrew letters. The symbol of the Ise-Jingu Shinto Shrine is simply the Star of David, while not a few Japanese audience watching "Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)" were stunned to find again the similarity between the shape of the ark and omikoshi used for religious festivity in Shinto. The similarity does not stop at something tangible. Highly knowledge/education-orientated national trait is another similarity, while what happened in the fort of Masada was basically the standard operating procedure seen throughout the Japanese history. eirikrjs.blogspot.com/2017/06/jjcat.html I have no doubt that a massive group of Jews, no less than 100,000 came to Japan sometime B.C. as claimed by some historians, and completely assimilated into the Japanese society over the past couple of thousand of years. Their genes have been dispersed and absorbed into the huge gene pool, so we can rarely find a Japanese person looking like Jewish. Jews historically maintained distinct ethnic/religious communities surrounding synagogues everywhere in the world, except in Japan. Japan has had such profound capacity to assimilate and adopt different cultures as part of her own. Anyway those Jews undoubtedly brought with them quite sophisticated cultures and ideas that must have had huge impact on the Japanese, as illustrated above.
As a matter of fact, 40% of Japanese people have D type chromosome which is unique in East Asia and close to Middle-eastern. Original Japanese are as follows, livedoor.blogimg.jp/kaikaihanno/imgs/3/a/3a17b147.jpg
Kitty George Dear Kitty, The picture that comes up from the link are Ainu people from the northernmost island of Japan which is Hokkaido. They Ainu are not Japanese and were there long before the contemporary Japanese got to Japan. They are the Japanese aborigines if you will. You can see this from their facial features and also the designs on their clothing. There were those who claimed the Ainu had some Israelite connection but after reading about them I don't think that's possible as their whole culture is completely pagan doesn't seem to have anything reminiscent of Judaism in any way.
+Myriam Gabbay The Ainu is considered to descend from the "Jōmon". and lots of the Japanese in mainland have Jomon DNA. stat.ameba.jp/user_images/20150727/08/shimonose9m/61/80/j/o0480039313377818896.jpg
+Myriam Gabbay Please see this. historum.com/asian-history/51817-oceanic-genetic-admixture-among-japanese-people.html Both of Japanese & Ainu descend from the "Jomon". Both of them are aborigines.
+Myriam Gabbay Japanese=Jomon＋descent from south China Ainu=almost Jomon You can see from this map. "Male androgenic hair map" 40.media.tumblr.com/2917d98c548a62553bd8f6c0c26c876d/tumblr_n9du0rovrL1rasnq9o1_500.png
patchy2185 Thanks for your question. Zion originally was the name of 'the hill in Jerusalem on which the city of David was built', later it became the site of the First Temple and is today known as the Temple Mount. Zion became the name of the place Jewish people pray to return. Gion is the name of the district in Kyoton near the Yasaka Shrine. Many people believe the word Gion is the same word as Zion and points to the Japanese people's hidden identity as early Israelites, possibly connected to the 'Lost Tribes'.
***** I'm very interested in so many similar custom between Israel and Japan. I watched Japanese TV show about Jews in Japan. They said there are many similar custom from Israel in Japan and they were surprised like Setsubun. Thank you for the response.
+patchy2185 Yes, when carrying the arc(Omikoshi), they used to shout Wassei Wassei, which has a very special meaning. I dont know what is the hebrew counterpart for this. Since the Arc was a dreadful weapon of fire or lazor power, so those around the arc prayed that the arc should not kill them by it´s lethal power.....
Blue Mu sorry but the jumon never had banners or written prayers until the hata or Jews fled toJapan and brought prayer scrolls to and the jumon, yamata and ainu. Tengu large nose is Jewish. Most of Japan traditions are from Jewish anciestry. Nowhere in Jumon, and Yamata did they have open worship practice. Only the Jews walked with the Torah and Rememberance of the Ark of the Covienent.
well...maybe...it's tempting to map familiar patterns over observed patterns but this is not always showing the truth, like we tend to see face images reflected in random patterns...i dont know...interesting for further research though.
@WorldTurtleMedia And forgot to mention. Your video editing skills are awesome, pretty good indeed! Keep on making some great vids in the future! Good Luck!
Also Asians and Europeans are related too and middle eastern people. Some Afghanistan people look European with white scin and read hair and blue eyes but are middle eastern. It makes sense most middle eastern people have a tiny but of semitic dna.
As the Tribe of Dan moved through Europe , The Scythians aka Saka aka Saki moves through Asia. Some say the Scythians / Saka were Jews. I think they say Issacs Tribe.
Yes, and in Egypt where the menorah-shaped underground silos of grain were stored during the reign of "Yusuf" AKA Vizier under Amenemhat - this city is called "Sakara".
The Danites didn't only go to Europe. They also went to ancient Sheba and probably also to Korea at least: the founders of Korea bear the title ""Dan-gun", which tells me they were from the tribe of Dan; and their founding matriarch was probably a woman of this tribe, since "gune" means "woman" in Greek - but as we know much of the vocabulary from Greek came directly from Hebrew and Phoenician. The Chief Sephardic rabbi who authorised the "Beta Israel" as authentic Jews relied on ancient rabbinical testimony that some of the Danites went to ancient Sheba. But according to El-Hadani, a medieval Yemenite Jew of Danite origin, members of the tribes of Naphtali, Asher, Gad, and Dan migrated to Sheba where they joined the "sons of Moses". Add to this the testimony of the Kebra Negast, which says that the firstborn sons of all the priests were sent to Sheba along with Menelik the son of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.
Interesting video. Just that. 2016. People says that preserving the culture is very important. For what ? After many wars that humanity were thru, he original culture are lost. The victorious always tell the history, most of the times deformed acording to their interest. If some people think that some culture came from another, is fine. We should respect the way other people's think. It should apply to all, including those who disagree. And that is why I say interesting video, just that. Many coincidences, independent similar thinking, all over the world. The most common thing is that most of humans believe in god. Doesn't matter where and when Diferent DNA ? What about if we came from another planets ? Could be that one day everything change and all gone.
The collective unconscious is the source of such similarities, that's it. It is laughable to say Japanese are related to Jews, when in fact they resemble much more other East Asian and North-East Siberians. They are "so related" that non-fish seafood has been a staple in Japan since time immemorial, along with pork. Kamis are certainly considered idols from the Judeo-Christian perspective. There are dozens of other points of difference. The important thing is that we are all human.
Yes there is a collective unconscious for base level need for interpretation for all of humanity...the sun provides life therefore sun worship. In this case the similarities are very specific. Many original shrine legends and rituals can be compared to ancient Israelite rituals down to the verse, composition, and religious and cultural meaning.
@@WorldTurtleMedia Ancient Israelites were ethnically close to other Semitic tribes such as the Hittites, culturally absorbed and exchanged information with civilizations ranging from Egypt, Mesopotamia, east to Persia. Japanese first inhabitants the Ainu were Micronesian. The islands later received ethnic input from the Korean peninsula, and of course its fundamental cultural influence has been China.
The clothes that the Yamabushi wear resemble the clothes of the Cohanim/ priests of the temple, and the box they wear on their head is similar to teffilin, which are still worn every day by jews.
@@1995yuda No, I saw it before years ago, it was definitely a video from 'world turtle productions' but for some reason its taken down. It showed an important Shinto priest in japan wearing robes like tibet.
As for the rituals, this may be based on VERY ANCIENT human pagan rituals kept intact and as I mentioned with the symbols, many human populations have similar rituals, words, symbols and even racial features with another culture they're not related at all. Some african cultures practice similar rituals to jewish rituals and festivals. There's even one church in Ethiopia and population that claim descending from Abraham and that they have the ark of the covenant. Of course none is proven.
Purim actually predates the religion and appears to be entirely borrowed from earlier religion. They may have blended charactors from their own history into it, but you would still see it. It's absence only proves small if any Jewish influence. There was a jewish trade route, but how much did it leave behind?
I am from Jewish ancestors and I love Shintoism... But this is just irrevelant logic of someone who whant to see things as he wishes. The Japan people have Altaic origins and all this looks more like kham ceremonies, if one really whant to look at similarities.
+Pan Thanks for your comment. I will research the Kham Culture! It is likely that ancient Japan was settled by several, or many, cultural and ethnic groups and makes sense they have connection to central Asia. I would disagree with your assessment of my views. I am surprised as Jewish person you are not intrigued by the customs and symbols present in this video. Thanks again!
#WorldTurtle Thank you for your open-minded comment. "Kham" is the central-asian name for "shaman" ("Shaman being a tungus word meaning "to move as an animal - bcz it was related to the journey to seduct a female deer in order to marry her so that her offspring would offer them to their family (i.e. the human clan). It is sometimes suggested that "Kham" could be linked to Khan, but it is not sure. As for the customs and symbols in this video, well, I really believe that you can find similarities in many ancient ways... Well, I am kinda renegate Jewish bcz I know that the Ashkenazi were mixed with Khazar witch were Tengriist and had Kham ("shamans") and even if the Jewish people do not like to recognize it, for a consequent part of them they converted to judaism folowwing their clan's leaders. If you really believe there is a link between Japan (Shinto) ceremonies and Jewish ceremonies, maybe it could be that the Kham ceremonies inherited in shinto are similar to some askenazi "ways" (bcz they are part khazar)... This is my opinion. (I love shinto, really...) Best regards !
+Pan My belief is that there were open global trade routes at a much earlier point in history then we are generally taught. It is very likely that people settled in enclaves all along these trade routes across Asia, carrying on their own beliefs while integrating parts of cultures around them. It's likely that these early people influenced each other too! I believe there is evidence that some of these enclaves were of Semitic origin and settled in Japan.
+World Turtle Productions, LLC I hope I must have read all relevant inputs by you, I aquite agree with you, there´re so many things which endorce similarities and origins of ancient islaeli tribes and those of descendants of some japanese and their religous customs and in the words and scripts. The only problem will be, how the present day´s Israelistate is taking this seriusly or not. If and when they are fake jews , they wouln´t be happy about the connections at all. Then what would Israel would do? Are you also studying impacts of this which may affect foreign policy of Israel and US? I´m fairly into this.
+Mutu Kotani Thank you for your comments. I think some people take these ideas seriously, but most people don't yet see the connections. I don't know what impact the truth will have on Israel and Japanese politics. What do your think the world reaction should be? How should Israel respond? Will Japan ever acknowledge the connection. What about other Jews not in Israel? What do you think?
In the Sinai desert, everybody donated materials for the making of the Tabernacle and its contents: gold rings, silver bracelets, dyed wools , linen, etc. Exodus 35. Polished copper/brass mirrors were donated by the women to make the huge Washstand. Ex. 37:8. BTW, ALL of the women of Israel refused to donate any of their jewelry for the making of the golden calf. For that reason, all of the women, except Miriam, lived to enter the Promised Land; only men that had participated died in the 40yrs
@WorldTurtleMedia You are right on the Central Asian markers, but they are also present on Han Chinese and Korean peoples and many Turkic and Moglic populations. The presence on modern Jews of this markers may come from the Khazar Empire in Central Asia. Its main religion was Judaism as well as Shamanism, Islam and Germanic Paganism from the Gothic population they had. Many Ashkenazi Jews may be Khazar descendants so in a way they are Turkic as the Khazars were Turkic.
Wow, I've already make many comments giving my arguments as an Historian specialized on East Asian cultures, Russian history and Germanic culture. Feel free to give me your thoughts or arguments you may have regarding this nowadays "fringe" theory. As for bibliography I can provide you with many books of this topic and any other you may like from the specialties I studied. I am proudly German, Mexican-born. Cheers! and for Jewish readers, Shalom.
Do google by "ユダヤ人 埴輪". You may find clay some image of Jews excavated from pretty old ruins in Japan. Some japanese scientists believe nearly 20,000 Jews imigrated in Japan those days.
@WorldTurtleMedia After that, Ainu people, as a leader, had constructed Japanese societies with Asian "Yayoi-jin" people. (Caution: Not surrendered and swallowed by Asian "Yayoi-jin". As the evidence, Ainu leaders were very respected and sometimes worshiped as one of over 8million God by "Yayoi-jin" ) And they had become blood-mixed year by year. But some Ainu people disliked blood-mix and moved away to North-East. And finally they had settled in Hokkaido.
(YAP) is very rare and ancient type of Y chromsom part. DNA analysis of the Y chromosome markers of the Jews Cohanim and non-Cohanim were indeed significant. A particular marker, (YAP-) was detected in 98.5 percent of the Cohanim, and in a significantly lower percentage of non-Cohanim. (YAP-) is only seen in Japanese in high rate (ca.50%). (YAP+) is seen in Tibtans in high rate. (YAP) is very little seen in other world.(YAP) is not seen in Ashkenazi Jews. Is this just coincidence?
TORA TORA "The title is the Japanese code-word used to indicate that complete surprise had been achieved. Tora (虎, pronounced [tòɽá])) literally means "tiger", but in this case was an acronym for totsugeki raigeki (突撃雷撃, "lightning attack")."
I read it in college learning about human migration, I'm sorry to say that I don't remember the study's name but I think it had something to do with the Ainu. I am not totally against your theory though because the red mask dude looks like a antisemitic draw and also that in the torah it says the jews were red.
People like to make a big fuss of just some coincidences. Many symbols, including the 6 point star of David are found all over the world, same with the swastika and crosses. Just because there are some similar or identical symbols and other stuff doesn't mean Japan was founded by Jews, then the same could be said the other way round, maybe Jews are Japanese. What? You look shocked! Buddhist temples in Japan have many swastikas, that doesn't make them Nazi or Aryan, right? Bunch of fallacies.
@WorldTurtleMedia Lastly, I would like to ask you one question. Are you a Jews American? or Japanese American? or some other else? If you don't mind, would you tell me.about that? I am a quarter of German blood Russian / Japanese. I can speak fluent only Japanese. Anyway, sorry for long reply and my poor English. And Thank you for uploading nice video.
Of course many people have similar customs based on people's relationships to the world around them. But in this case we are looking at a grouping of similar, and very particular, cultural identifiers. Thanks for posting!
***** Is there a basis for the belief that Isrealities had such an influence on Japanese religion and culture beyond the superficial 'I think this looks like/sounds like/seems like'? I see similarities are pointed out, but nothing presented here appears academically sound in terms of supporting the argument.
***** On the surface this material is not too compelling to me. It has not been peer-reviewed or published in a respectable academic journal. I would be careful about the title of doctor when it comes to Joseph Eidelberg as well. I can't find evidence of his credentials as such.
TuX1fIed Yes my mistake...Joseph Eidelberg not Dr. Eidelberg. I haven't found any peer reviewed articles on the subject either for or against...Does this make the story less true or less compelling, or just less studied?
***** I find it slightly unsettling. A lot of laymen appear to have taken this Japanese-Jewish origin "theory" completely on board because it is often presented as fact by proponents of the "theory". Subsequently, the claim has reached the ears of geneticists, archaeologists and linguists. You would expect to find a genetic link, *significant* similarities in the language and archaeological evidence, but when the experts within their respective fields have used the appropriate methodology; there have been found no such links. I have a lot of respect for both the Japanese and Jewish people, religion, culture and history. The Japanese have a very individual identity due to their many, many years of isolation from the rest of the world. When faced with exposure to modernity they have certainly braved the new frontiers admirably! To suggest that their tenacity, resolve, identity and more are only at the level that they are because of influence from the Jews is somewhat preposterous with what is currently known about their history. Those who have presented to you the supposed evidence that this is even a remotely likely claim have made a positive claim. Their positive claim calls for positive evidence. Evidence that can pass the trials that makes science the great tool that it is. Naturally you can believe what you want and share what ideas you want, but I'd suggest making it abundantly clear what the current academic status of the claims are and to fully understand the agenda of its proponents. In this case they are, and please excuse the harsness in my tone, religious zealots. P.S.: You have responded very well to criticism so far. Thank you. It is admirable! The production of the video itself is also very good.
There is no evidence available, including modern DNA analysis, to support this hypothesis. A recently published study of the genetic origins of Japanese people does not support a genealogical link as put forward by Saeki.[5] Researcher and author Jon Entine emphasizes that DNA evidence excludes the possibility of significant links between Japanese and Jews
There are many cultures that celebrate such lunar events. The full moon is party time, and every race knows about that. I think the creators of this video would like there to be some correlation between the two very distinct civilizations, and there is. Their names both start with J.
Thanks for your comment...full moon festivals that both light signal fires...whose patron deities both read from a scroll they both call the Torah/Tora...celebrated in two ancient cities with eleven gates and a Zion/Gion Festival... It's not that I would 'like' there to be a connection...for me just too many coincidences to be random...
The language tells us how Jewish is treated in Japan. Japanese is made up of Chinese and Yamato. Yamato language is considered to be the origin of Japanese, which is not Chinese. There are some things to understand when comparing Japanese with both languages. Japanese is Chinese. A Chinese language that translates the Yamato language. So it is called an orphan. It is the Yamato language that has something in common with Jewish. Yamato people and Japanese are described as different species in Chinese history books. This is the initial stage. The Japanese are the Chinese government that has exiled to Yamato. So at first I give myself the name of Yamato, but I am using this name. NIPPON is an ancient Chinese language. It's not a Yamato word. And under the name of China, the king has traditionally protected Chinese history and Chinese books. It was in the seventh century that they lost their Chinese identity. Amaterasu Ogami, Ise Shrine and Nihon Shoki were made. The Japanese calligraphy is like the Old Testament. What is happening here? The Japanese (also known as ancient Chinese) has rewritten the name of the creator Asherah in Chinese. At the same time, all shrines have been replaced with shrines of Amaterasu. So there are only Chinese shrines in Japan. Furthermore, according to the Nihon Shoki, the rewritten god was made the ancestor of the Chinese emperor. This is to deceive the Hebrew people in Japan and make them servants. This attempt was unsuccessful and the Japanese emperor left Ise Shrine for about 1,000 years. At the same time, the Chinese community will be destroyed, centered on the Japanese royal family, who have been intimate until then. Mixed race with Yamato people begins. Furthermore, there was a country called Baekje in Korea, which was contributing to Japan in the morning, but they were separated. Baekje is a country ruled by the royal family before it was exiled to Japan. There was a country called Qin in China. The Chinese who impersonate the Yamato people also call themselves Qin. They will be chased in 385. Shortly thereafter, the city of Chang'an was born in Japan. Around Kyoto. Therefore, Japanese characters are written in Chinese. Differences in language can also be seen in numbers. In standard Japanese, 1234 is read as "iti", "nii", "san", "sii", which is the same as reading in Chinese. Yamato words are read as "hi", "hwo", "mee", and "your". Actually it is the same as English. And another one, "mono", "ji", "tri" and "tetra" are also used in the form of being incorporated in the language. This is the same as Greek. Thoughts such as "Mono_gatari" and "Mono_omoi" are written in Japanese. In Chinese notation, these are converted to Kanji with the same sound, so there is no meaning in Kanji and it is in a state where the meaning cannot be understood from Kanji. In other words, it is like the people who erased other races in Auschwitz have Jewish relics. That's why the language is strange and the sun emblem is chrysanthemum. They are also ethnically different. The Japanese are Mongoloid. Certainly there are still Hebrew people in Japan. However, the number of people is small. Japanese mythology also shows Japanese people persecuting them. Kappa is a well-known Japanese youkai. The feature is that I like to wear a white plate on my head or a hat to make a smow. The ancient Hebrews would have been wearing white hats and smou. The pope in modern times will be the same. Kappa has the same etymology as Kippa and "Calotta". The grave of Creator Ashera is in YASUGI, IZUMO. For the Japanese, they have long been sealed because they are people who threaten the regime. So there is no shrine. See Japanese Mythology for why the Creator's grave is in Japan. Izanami has no creative myth. She came 3000 years ago. She created the country of Yamato, saying she came from the country of Ama. This is the myth of the beginning of Japan. At this time, many Hebrews also arrived in Japan. Katakana in Japanese is not made by Chinese. This was supposed to be Hebrew. However, be careful about myths written in Chinese. Most Japanese myths have been rewritten by the Chinese. Amaterasu Okami is made by the Chinese.
That's not true. Consistency does not match other studies remarkably. You should read more Chronicles of Japan carefully, and the interpretation of the Asian history is strange, too.
Thanks for your comment...no, I am referring to the ancient practice of the first Rosh Chodesh of the New Year, at which time they lit signal fires at the first sight of the new moon.
Do you know how the Bible describes Abraham and the ancient Jews of his line? They were a nomadic shepherd people who moved only strictly around Mesopotamia, Egypt and the Mid East as the need be. Do you see that same trait among the ancient Japanese? And the one crucial thing that identifies Jews as a peculiar people, is their FAITH in 1 God (monotheism) whom Moses called Yehovah Elohim. Do you see this in ancient and modern Japan? Other points I wish to share but uploader approval is tedious.
I have been living in Japan for 3 years now, and I don't see any resemblance.. I have lived in China too. Japan had it's major influence from Korea and China but Israel... I doubt.. There is also a guy which said that the Japanese language comes from Hebrew which is also not correct. Japanese comes meanly from Korean and Mandarin.
How does Jewish culture only appear in Japan, and not in the surrounding areas of China and India? I believe the 13th tribe of Israel made the journey to the eastern ends of the old world. Throughout this journey they were hunted by the Mongolian confederation conscripted by one of the known 12 tribes of Israel. While they were unsuccessful at thwarting them during their journey, they did manage to destroy any trace of thier journey. This is why we have no concrete evidence form the Bible?
can only simple English. There is an interesting Manai shrine in Japan. The beginning of Manai shrine is from 2,500 years ago, Please watch videos. 天橋立 amanohashidate 動画 【HD 高画質対応】 ←（1：34sec,ver） search on youtube The meaning of Amanohashidate is a bridge of God, or it is a pillar of God.

Interesting but unrealistic. In Japanese religions, such as Buddhism, you can even find a influence from Zoroastrianism, or influence from Brahmanism, but it's came through China continent. Maybe you think Japan locates at the east end of the world, but actually it was affected by many aspect of world, such as study, export, and religion.
Those of us who studied Japanese learned that katakana were borrowed from Chinese characters in abbreviated form. But the principal issue in all this is how Jews got to Japan and when they got there. We know that Jews came to China in the T'ang dynasty and later. So, did they continue on to Japan? Why weren't those ancient Jewish rituals incorporated into Chinese religion? But let's play "devil's advocate" and accept the assertions in this video. If Jewish rituals have such a significant place in Japanese culture, how is it that anti-semitism has been so visible in Japan? (viz. www.ajcarchives.org/AJC_DATA/Files/889.pdf). Just ignorance? Has no one seen the photos taken at Amaterasu's lavish bat mitzvah?
I don't exactly believe this whole Jewish ancestory thing as I'd rather believe in scientific proofs such as DNA tracing than possibly coincidental symbol/culture match, but IF this was true, then the logical way to think is that it's most likely due to the difference in civilization advancement between China and Japan back in those times. As Japan had a lower civilization level back then compared to China, the Jewish probably had more technology/culture to teach the Japanese than the Chinese would take in.

You're right. There is evidence.
Japanese Government and the Japanese don’t punish the Jew who gets The visa from Chiune Sugihara, and visited Japan (as it is an important thing, they write it).
They just did a DNA test on the japanese natives (the ones that didn't immigrate from china a thousand years ago) and found that they have similar proteins that are found in those in africa and the middle east.
Well there is a Hata clan among the Wolayta and Woletegna-speaking people of Ethiopia. They also have bowing customs very similar to the Japanese form of bowing, where they bend from the waist and perform bows where the depth of the bow appears to be in proportion to the level of respect the one bowed to is regarded to deserve. So for God, they give the deepest bows. Interestingly, there is a Japanese researcher who has been very involved in researching this culture; and I wonder whether it is due to the fact that he has realised their probable ancient connection.
There is also a region within the Tembien region of Tigray called "Tamkwa", which is a very agricultural and forested region. My friend from this region was surprised to learn that the Japanese word for "farmer" is "tanaka", which she believes may be a sort of cognate for "Tamkwa".
There is a "Soran Bushi" in sailor's song handed down from ancient times in Japan.
Lyrics of this "Soran Bushi" begin with "Yaren, Soran," but the meaning of the word is not the case in any dialect of Japan, it is not being interpreted in Japanese.
However, it will "Sing! Songs of joy" in it translates "Yaren, Soran (yaranen solan)" in the ancient Hebrew.
The "Soran Bushi", there is the theory that, in the song was a prayer to God by the Jews, which aims to the Promised Land.
The correct ancient form of these words is as below:
Yaren = Haren = Harinu
Soran = Sirin = Shirim
Harinu Shirim in Biblical & Literal Hebrew is orthographically written as below:
הרינו שירים

There has been a great deal of research on the historical Judeo-Japanese relations by various scholars inside and outside Japan, notably the books of Joseph Eidelberg, an Israeli anthropologist. The resemblance between the katakana alphabet and Hebrew is very remarkable, as well as the number of words in the 2 languages which closely resemble each other in both pronunciation and meaning.
Interesting!
+eshaoul55
katakana was invented by samurai, not invented by jews.
let me show you an example, the katakana of --> O "オ" is a radical taken away from this character --> Close "閉" and many others, just like katakana --> Ka" カ" that was taken from many different kanjis with such radical like --> Man"男" and used separated as a katakana word, nothing jewish here.

do the hebrew have 3 different vocal tones on words?
+JoJoStar Brando Samurai allegedly by prof. Eidelberg ,derives from Shamurai in old Hebrew words, both of them mea worriers.Interesting, isn´t it?
+JoJoStar Brando katakana was rather invented in Nara-period, i.e. 1200-1300 years ago. At the time "samurai" clans did not came into being yet. Kibino Makibi was said to be the person who invented katakana. I bet his name is not of a japanese origin.
It could have been better if you included a video or images of the Jewish practice and temple.

Jewish do like Japan and the business is going to have a good relationship with Japan, I know that the Japanese market is bigger than the Korean market. But if you still remember the miserable history of ours, please don't forget. The Japanese government did not apologize to the Korean sexual comfort women. Many Japanese Nazi soldiers still live in Japan and their descendants are growing. In Japan, the Nazi symbol is very common and used in good meaning. I really do not understand all this. People need the justice
@@teatime5891 This video is nothing has to do with all of the stuff you've mentioned here. Not sure how you were ended up watching this video.
This is true. In ancient time, before Nara era some middle east people came to Japan.
And Japanese DNA has D2 DNA. D2 DNA means blood from east side of mediterranean sea.
It might be Jewish DNA. And also, Katakana's reading pronuciation, and shape is 98% similar to Hebrew sign. Pronunciation of the sign is same too.
In shinto ceremony, there are so many similarities between Japanese shinto and Judaism.
Actually the people who came to Japan from Hebrew country were not many. But they influenced ancient Japanese. So pieces of Judaism were kept to preserve in Shinto.
Thank you for your comments. We cannot say for sure the size of the group, but the evidence suggests there were multiple migrations of varying sizes over a long period of time. DNA evidence cannot show us the entire picture. You're correct about the language, but the cultural connections reach much deeper then people realize!

Thank you for your comment. Yes Rosh Hodesh is a monthly holiday. But in ancient times the signal fires were lit only once a year on the first New Moon after the New Year. The signal fires at Kurama are lit on the same New Moon as the ancient Israelites.
As with most things in modern Judaism, it rarely reflects what was done and the Torah these days.

Very interesting, also similarity between Japanese language/culture and Hebrew language/culture.
Hi watched and feeding back from Japan.
This is very interesting aspect to take a look the culture that I was born to.
My family has been practicing Shinto for generations and I am pretty proud of taking a part to protect the culture.
The world is full filled with mystery. Maybe there was some Jewish people thousands of years ago, maybe not. But I am glad to hear someone from outside of our country shows interest in what our ancestors have been practicing and protecting and found something common between two different culture which was grown thousands of miles a part.

Rosh Chodesh - the New Moon Festival - is a minor festival observed every month on the New Moon (not the full moon shown in the video). The signal fires were not a part of the celebration, but a notification that the High Priest had declared that the crescent had been seen - therefore everyone knew the correct days of upcoming holidays.
Some note the resemblance between cathoric ritual and Japanese tea ceremony.
It is possible that ancient Japanese just borrowed/imported the procedure of Jewish ceremony .
As a Jew, I find the idea that Judaism inspired this festival ludicrous in the extreme. There are many shared religious, architectural, etc. traits shared across almost every religion and ethnicity worldwide, which have existed since before intercontinental travel or trade existed.
Worship at the ancient Grand Shrine of Ise in Japan is claimed by some to be ancient Judaeic as performed in the First Temple (of Solomon, the son of David) at Jerusalem. Many of the "Mudras" (hand expressions) and carved symbols seen in this video are from ShriVidya (The escoteric Brahminical Indo-Aryan rite). Intriguing: Where did all that is common in all three forms of worship originate from?
The hand signs and symbols came to Japan via Buddhism which was formed by Indo Aryans of India obviously
The new thing people like to shout is "cultural appropriation." Personally I believe things like this just show how we all are connected regardless of which ethnicity we think did it first. At some point in the history of humanity we were all linked by a basic spiritual kindred. But due to our greed and other flaws we over complicated by trying to name and rank the importance our beliefs & deities (IE Religion.)

The Phoenicians also founded Greece, Paris, Iberia, Wales, Scotland, Scandinavia, Mesoamerica, Alaska, Hawaii, Japan, Indonesia, Peru, Australia, and New Zealand
The proof for all to see is they all share the same cultural traditions, musical instruments, and Metonic Calendar, the same Calendar the Pyramid of Cheops and all other Megalithic sites are based upon

A long time ago, there was a tribe that came across the Silk Road, migrated across the sea, and with the permission of the Japanese emperor, settled in Japan, and thereafter called themselves the Hata. It is said that the Hata clan created the system of Shinto and shrines. Some say that the Hata may be the descendants of the ten lost Jewish clans.
Thank you for your comment! This could be true...but how did the Hata Clan know to go to Japan? Because there was an earlier migration! Perhaps the "Lost Tribes" were never really lost, and instead knew exactly where they were going.
@@WorldTurtleMedia Yeah, people with ancient Jewish connections seem to have crossed over about three times.
There are villages and ruins that have been influenced by the Naftali people on Awaji Island.
There are also traces of ancient Jewish tribes in Kochi Prefecture.
@@u9445naftali are in Afghanistan as the biggest modern tribe there is called Abdali.
Yes, and it seems "Yayoi" could be named after "Yah" which is short for the name of Adonai, which is represented as Yod-Hey-Vav-Hey and referred to as the Tetragrammaton by scholars. And it is common in Greek to have an "-oi" suffix to indicate "the people of ____". So to me, "Yah-oi" is a combination of "Yah" and "Greek" suffix "-oi". The place were such fusion of Greek and Hebrew might well have occurred seems to be in ancient Sheba, where they spoke Hebrew, Tigrinya, Ge'ez, Akkadian, and Greek. I think many of the ancestors of the Japanese are probably from Arabia and the horn of Africa, especially as many of their names are very similar to those in the Wolayta and other Ethiopian regions in particular.
I'm Japanese .
I've been very very interested in this theory for decade, and I read many about it in Japanese. I somewhat believe that some part of ancient lost ten tribes might have reached to Japan.
And some occultic Japanese claims this is true.
But I wonder, how about in Israel? how many people in Israel believe this theory? And what institute is doing the research? Are there any books or documents about it written in English?
Sometimes I doubt that this is the inside theory that only Japanese is excited by their imagination. SO I want to know the reaction outside of Japan.
Israelites are black and the people in israel rn aren't the true israelites.
@@RayalWorldConz Yeah black people are the Israelites and the Egyptians and the cannanites and the Greeks and the Asians and the Mayans. Smh. No such thing as race by the way
Professor Avigdor Shachan, who has researched the "Lost Tribes" of the ancient northern kingdom called "Israel" for half a century - he definitely does believe in this. In fact, since he has researched it for so long, it is a proven theory.
Good gravy ! What are you getting at and why ?
I would consider the possibility if someone could come up with some real evidence other than coincidence and the occasional culture copying Japanese tend to do.
Another striking coincidence: The Seimei shinto shrine of Kyoto has the (Jewish) King David's star as its symbol - see "Seimei Shrine" on Wikipedia.
I agree with it. because some basic verbs of japanese are similar with hebrew ones. In case of English, English ones similar with germany. from
linguistic view, very interesting. But people from Israel might be a few part of japanese.
@WorldTurtleMedia
You are welcomed.
I totally agree with you. But one thing I would like to point out.
Ainu people had come in Japan through Alaska and Russia, not Korea and China. That is true.
But many people are misunderstanding that Ainu people had lived in only Northern Japan.
In reality, Ainu had lived in all areas in Japan and established first country in Kyushu (west Japan) .
But later, many Asian called "Yayoi-jin", had come in Japan through Korea and China and other Asian countries.
I guess the other Japanese are same as me, I don't really know about it.
But I know the caucasians who are shorter and last names contain a ' man' are Jewish.
This is a really interesting theory
I think they are part of ten lost tribes. Descendants of Abraham.
Even as far as Peru there are some similar Inca words that some people speculate are related to ancient Hebrew. Just as I mentioned, coincidences doesn't make something "true" or "valid". I could mention thousands of words that are found in many languages of the world not even remotely connected and that doesn't make them even related.
They are probably not "coincidences" at all. Many native populations have many religious rituals that would not have any provable origin apart from the Israelites based on the Biblical testimony. My friend, who is from the Muskogee tribe, tells me that Cherokee, for instance, is high Hebrew.
In regards to Peru, there are languages there that have multi-tonal characteristics that are only known to exist in Omotic languages (found in the horn of Africa) as well as in China. This tells me that they share a common origin, probably. As a matter of fact, many Peruvians actually look similar to people from the Middle East and Ethiopia.
Rosh Hodesh is every month, not once a year. And the fires lit on the mountain tops were simply a way of signaling to other Jews far away that the new moon has been seen, and therefore the start of Rosh Hodesh. Today, with technology, we know exactly when Rosh Hodesh is and there is no ceremony or anything to do with fire.
And the scroll the Tengu taught from was called the TORAHmaki....... that's the point I was sold.
Torah means instructions
I couldnt find any article that mentions "TORAHmaki"
The similarity between the Japanese tokin and the Jewish tefillin can hardly be a coincidence, and so can the similarity between the Japanese katakana and Hebrew letters. The symbol of the Ise-Jingu Shinto Shrine is simply the Star of David, while not a few Japanese audience watching "Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)" were stunned to find again the similarity between the shape of the ark and omikoshi used for religious festivity in Shinto. The similarity does not stop at something tangible. Highly knowledge/education-orientated national trait is another similarity, while what happened in the fort of Masada was basically the standard operating procedure seen throughout the Japanese history.

I have no doubt that a massive group of Jews, no less than 100,000 came to Japan sometime B.C. as claimed by some historians, and completely assimilated into the Japanese society over the past couple of thousand of years. Their genes have been dispersed and absorbed into the huge gene pool, so we can rarely find a Japanese person looking like Jewish. Jews historically maintained distinct ethnic/religious communities surrounding synagogues everywhere in the world, except in Japan. Japan has had such profound capacity to assimilate and adopt different cultures as part of her own. Anyway those Jews undoubtedly brought with them quite sophisticated cultures and ideas that must have had huge impact on the Japanese, as illustrated above.
Thank you for your comments!
As a matter of fact, 40% of Japanese people have D type chromosome which is unique in East Asia and close to Middle-eastern. Original Japanese are as follows, livedoor.blogimg.jp/kaikaihanno/imgs/3/a/3a17b147.jpg
Kitty George Dear Kitty, The picture that comes up from the link are Ainu people from the northernmost island of Japan which is Hokkaido. They Ainu are not Japanese and were there long before the contemporary Japanese got to Japan. They are the Japanese aborigines if you will. You can see this from their facial features and also the designs on their clothing. There were those who claimed the Ainu had some Israelite connection but after reading about them I don't think that's possible as their whole culture is completely pagan doesn't seem to have anything reminiscent of Judaism in any way.

Japanese oldest festival in Kyoto is called Gion. It lasts a month in July. what's the difference between Gion and Zion?
patchy2185 The origin of the Gion festival is ancient Messianic Jews or ancient Christianity, Probably ancient Messianic Jews.
Thank you. It's great to know.
patchy2185 Thanks for your question. Zion originally was the name of 'the hill in Jerusalem on which the city of David was built', later it became the site of the First Temple and is today known as the Temple Mount. Zion became the name of the place Jewish people pray to return. Gion is the name of the district in Kyoton near the Yasaka Shrine. Many people believe the word Gion is the same word as Zion and points to the Japanese people's hidden identity as early Israelites, possibly connected to the 'Lost Tribes'.
***** I'm very interested in so many similar custom between Israel and Japan. I watched Japanese TV show about Jews in Japan. They said there are many similar custom from Israel in Japan and they were surprised like Setsubun. Thank you for the response.
+patchy2185 Yes, when carrying the arc(Omikoshi), they used to shout Wassei Wassei, which has a very special meaning. I dont know what is the hebrew counterpart for this. Since the Arc was a dreadful weapon of fire or lazor power, so those around the arc prayed that the arc should not kill them by it´s lethal power.....
this is not judaism
Blue Mu sorry but the jumon never had banners or written prayers until the hata or Jews fled toJapan and brought prayer scrolls to and the jumon, yamata and ainu. Tengu large nose is Jewish. Most of Japan traditions are from Jewish anciestry. Nowhere in Jumon, and Yamata did they have open worship practice. Only the Jews walked with the Torah and Rememberance of the Ark of the Covienent.
well...maybe...it's tempting to map familiar patterns over observed patterns but this is not always showing the truth, like we tend to see face images reflected in random patterns...i dont know...interesting for further research though.

They also went to ancient Sheba and probably also to Korea at least: the founders of Korea bear the title ""Dan-gun", which tells me they were from the tribe of Dan; and their founding matriarch was probably a woman of this tribe, since "gune" means "woman" in Greek - but as we know much of the vocabulary from Greek came directly from Hebrew and Phoenician. The Chief Sephardic rabbi who authorised the "Beta Israel" as authentic Jews relied on ancient rabbinical testimony that some of the Danites went to ancient Sheba. But according to El-Hadani, a medieval Yemenite Jew of Danite origin, members of the tribes of Naphtali, Asher, Gad, and Dan migrated to Sheba where they joined the "sons of Moses". Add to this the testimony of the Kebra Negast, which says that the firstborn sons of all the priests were sent to Sheba along with Menelik the son of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.
@SamuraiTogo Interesting (I'm a Russian Jew), If you don't mind me asking, how did youre Russian/German relatives end up in Japan?
Interesting video. Just that. 2016. People says that preserving the culture is very important. For what ? After many wars that humanity were thru, he original culture are lost. The victorious always tell the history, most of the times deformed acording to their interest. If some people think that some culture came from another, is fine. We should respect the way other people's think. It should apply to all, including those who disagree. And that is why I say interesting video, just that. Many coincidences, independent similar thinking, all over the world. The most common thing is that most of humans believe in god. Doesn't matter where and when Diferent DNA ? What about if we came from another planets ? Could be that one day everything change
and all gone.
The collective unconscious is the source of such similarities, that's it. It is laughable to say Japanese are related to Jews, when in fact they resemble much more other East Asian and North-East Siberians. They are "so related" that non-fish seafood has been a staple in Japan since time immemorial, along with pork. Kamis are certainly considered idols from the Judeo-Christian perspective. There are dozens of other points of difference.
The important thing is that we are all human.
Yes there is a collective unconscious for base level need for interpretation for all of humanity...the sun provides life therefore sun worship. In this case the similarities are very specific. Many original shrine legends and rituals can be compared to ancient Israelite rituals down to the verse, composition, and religious and cultural meaning.
@@WorldTurtleMedia Ancient Israelites were ethnically close to other Semitic tribes such as the Hittites, culturally absorbed and exchanged information with civilizations ranging from Egypt, Mesopotamia, east to Persia.
Japanese first inhabitants the Ainu were Micronesian. The islands later received ethnic input from the Korean peninsula, and of course its fundamental cultural influence has been China.
The clothes that the Yamabushi wear resemble the clothes of the Cohanim/ priests of the temple, and the box they wear on their head is similar to teffilin, which are still worn every day by jews.
The scroll read by the tengu: the tora nomaki, is similar to the word Torah, the jewish bible.
Last my note. Soldman and Oldman are Ephraim and Manashe, maybe.
The thing on their forehead is like the Tefilin we put on every morning. Weird.
There was another video for this series; the mystery of jews in Japan. I was wondering if you could upload it because it was very good.
This video is on youtube but im not sure its his. i just watched it
@@1995yuda No, I saw it before years ago, it was definitely a video from 'world turtle productions' but for some reason its taken down. It showed an important Shinto priest in japan wearing robes like tibet.
Was there really a mirror in the First Temple? I thought it was the Arc of Covenant.
Interesting observations. I want to believe. This is possibly a case of convergent evolution of the two religions. I can see it going either way.
If the truth will ever come out, one will realize, that people of Ancient Israel influenced cultures in 4 corners of the Earth.
Shinto traditions so very similar to Jewish rituals.
As for the rituals, this may be based on VERY ANCIENT human pagan rituals kept intact and as I mentioned with the symbols, many human populations have similar rituals, words, symbols and even racial features with another culture they're not related at all. Some african cultures practice similar rituals to jewish rituals and festivals. There's even one church in Ethiopia and population that claim descending from Abraham and that they have the ark of the covenant. Of course none is proven.
This video is extremely interesting, I would love to share my knowledge of judaism with you. These are truly intriguing.
Purim actually predates the religion and appears to be entirely borrowed from earlier religion. They may have blended charactors from their own history into it, but you would still see it. It's absence only proves small if any Jewish influence. There was a jewish trade route, but how much did it leave behind?
Great minds think alike!
The jews also have a similar festival to the japanese fire festival. It is called Lag Baomer, where we light big bonfires.
2:54 the six pointet star is an old symbol and not genuine jewish.
I am from Jewish ancestors and I love Shintoism... But this is just irrevelant logic of someone who whant to see things as he wishes. The Japan people have Altaic origins and all this looks more like kham ceremonies, if one really whant to look at similarities.
+Pan Thanks for your comment. I will research the Kham Culture! It is likely that ancient Japan was settled by several, or many, cultural and ethnic groups and makes sense they have connection to central Asia. I would disagree with your assessment of my views. I am surprised as Jewish person you are not intrigued by the customs and symbols present in this video. Thanks again!
#WorldTurtle Thank you for your open-minded comment. "Kham" is the central-asian name for "shaman" ("Shaman being a tungus word meaning "to move as an animal - bcz it was related to the journey to seduct a female deer in order to marry her so that her offspring would offer them to their family (i.e. the human clan). It is sometimes suggested that "Kham" could be linked to Khan, but it is not sure. As for the customs and symbols in this video, well, I really believe that you can find similarities in many ancient ways... Well, I am kinda renegate Jewish bcz I know that the Ashkenazi were mixed with Khazar witch were Tengriist and had Kham ("shamans") and even if the Jewish people do not like to recognize it, for a consequent part of them they converted to judaism folowwing their clan's leaders. If you really believe there is a link between Japan (Shinto) ceremonies and Jewish ceremonies, maybe it could be that the Kham ceremonies inherited in shinto are similar to some askenazi "ways" (bcz they are part khazar)... This is my opinion. (I love shinto, really...) Best regards !
+Pan My belief is that there were open global trade routes at a much earlier point in history then we are generally taught. It is very likely that people settled in enclaves all along these trade routes across Asia, carrying on their own beliefs while integrating parts of cultures around them. It's likely that these early people influenced each other too! I believe there is evidence that some of these enclaves were of Semitic origin and settled in Japan.
+World Turtle Productions, LLC I hope I must have read all relevant inputs by you, I aquite agree with you, there´re so many things which endorce similarities and origins of ancient islaeli tribes and those of descendants of some japanese and their religous customs and in the words and scripts. The only problem will be, how the present day´s Israelistate is taking this seriusly or not. If and when they are fake jews , they wouln´t be happy about the connections at all. Then what would Israel would do? Are you also studying impacts of this which may affect foreign policy of Israel and US? I´m fairly into this.
+Mutu Kotani Thank you for your comments. I think some people take these ideas seriously, but most people don't yet see the connections. I don't know what impact the truth will have on Israel and Japanese politics. What do your think the world reaction should be? How should Israel respond? Will Japan ever acknowledge the connection. What about other Jews not in Israel? What do you think?
In the Sinai desert, everybody donated materials for the making of the Tabernacle and its contents: gold rings, silver bracelets, dyed wools , linen, etc. Exodus 35. Polished copper/brass mirrors were donated by the women to make the huge Washstand. Ex. 37:8. BTW, ALL of the women of Israel refused to donate any of their jewelry for the making of the golden calf. For that reason, all of the women, except Miriam, lived to enter the Promised Land; only men that had participated died in the 40yrs
The shinto shrine resembling the holy temple in jerusalem is not a coincidence. The name for the scrolls in japanese being tora is not a coincidence.
Maki means scrolls not tora lol
Tora means tiger and Tora no Maki means tiger scroll(a type of scroll)
@WorldTurtleMedia You are right on the Central Asian markers, but they are also present on Han Chinese and Korean peoples and many Turkic and Moglic populations. The presence on modern Jews of this markers may come from the Khazar Empire in Central Asia. Its main religion was Judaism as well as Shamanism, Islam and Germanic Paganism from the Gothic population they had. Many Ashkenazi Jews may be Khazar descendants so in a way they are Turkic as the Khazars were Turkic.
Wow, I've already make many comments giving my arguments as an Historian specialized on East Asian cultures, Russian history and Germanic culture. Feel free to give me your thoughts or arguments you may have regarding this nowadays "fringe" theory. As for bibliography I can provide you with many books of this topic and any other you may like from the specialties I studied. I am proudly German, Mexican-born. Cheers! and for Jewish readers, Shalom.
awesome...
Do google by "ユダヤ人 埴輪". You may find clay some image of Jews excavated from pretty old ruins in Japan. Some japanese scientists believe nearly 20,000 Jews imigrated in Japan those days.
I really like how you have interpreted both traditions of Judaism and the Japanese Shinto. Very inspiring.
@WorldTurtleMedia
After that, Ainu people, as a leader, had constructed Japanese societies with Asian "Yayoi-jin" people.
(Caution: Not surrendered and swallowed by Asian "Yayoi-jin". As the evidence, Ainu leaders were very respected and sometimes worshiped as one of over 8million God by "Yayoi-jin" )
And they had become blood-mixed year by year.
But some Ainu people disliked blood-mix and moved away to North-East.
And finally they had settled in Hokkaido.
(YAP) is very rare and ancient type of Y chromsom part.
DNA analysis of the Y chromosome markers of the Jews Cohanim and non-Cohanim were indeed significant. A particular marker, (YAP-) was detected in 98.5 percent of the Cohanim, and in a significantly lower percentage of non-Cohanim.
(YAP-) is only seen in Japanese in high rate (ca.50%). (YAP+) is seen in Tibtans in high rate. (YAP) is very little seen in other world.(YAP) is not seen in Ashkenazi Jews.
Is this just coincidence?
TORA TORA
"The title is the Japanese code-word used to indicate that complete surprise had been achieved. Tora (虎, pronounced [tòɽá])) literally means "tiger", but in this case was an acronym for totsugeki raigeki (突撃雷撃, "lightning attack")."
@WorldTurtleMedia
Rosh Hodesh is celebrated in the begining of every lunar jewish month.
Never heard about the annual celebration.
I read it in college learning about human migration, I'm sorry to say that I don't remember the study's name but I think it had something to do with the Ainu. I am not totally against your theory though because the red mask dude looks like a antisemitic draw and also that in the torah it says the jews were red.
Very interesting, unfortunately I missed the festival last year :(
People like to make a big fuss of just some coincidences. Many symbols, including the 6 point star of David are found all over the world, same with the swastika and crosses. Just because there are some similar or identical symbols and other stuff doesn't mean Japan was founded by Jews, then the same could be said the other way round, maybe Jews are Japanese. What? You look shocked! Buddhist temples in Japan have many swastikas, that doesn't make them Nazi or Aryan, right? Bunch of fallacies.
@WorldTurtleMedia
Lastly, I would like to ask you one question.
Are you a Jews American? or Japanese American? or some other else?
If you don't mind, would you tell me.about that?
I am a quarter of German blood Russian / Japanese.
I can speak fluent only Japanese.
Anyway, sorry for long reply and my poor English.
And Thank you for uploading nice video.
Isn't it possible that human nature is a constant and therefore it is not surprising that different cultures create similar things independently?
Of course many people have similar customs based on people's relationships to the world around them. But in this case we are looking at a grouping of similar, and very particular, cultural identifiers. Thanks for posting!
***** Is there a basis for the belief that Isrealities had such an influence on Japanese religion and culture beyond the superficial 'I think this looks like/sounds like/seems like'? I see similarities are pointed out, but nothing presented here appears academically sound in terms of supporting the argument.
***** On the surface this material is not too compelling to me. It has not been peer-reviewed or published in a respectable academic journal. I would be careful about the title of doctor when it comes to Joseph Eidelberg as well. I can't find evidence of his credentials as such.
TuX1fIed Yes my mistake...Joseph Eidelberg not Dr. Eidelberg. I haven't found any peer reviewed articles on the subject either for or against...Does this make the story less true or less compelling, or just less studied?
***** I find it slightly unsettling. A lot of laymen appear to have taken this Japanese-Jewish origin "theory" completely on board because it is often presented as fact by proponents of the "theory".
Subsequently, the claim has reached the ears of geneticists, archaeologists and linguists. You would expect to find a genetic link, *significant* similarities in the language and archaeological evidence, but when the experts within their respective fields have used the appropriate methodology; there have been found no such links.
I have a lot of respect for both the Japanese and Jewish people, religion, culture and history. The Japanese have a very individual identity due to their many, many years of isolation from the rest of the world. When faced with exposure to modernity they have certainly braved the new frontiers admirably!
To suggest that their tenacity, resolve, identity and more are only at the level that they are because of influence from the Jews is somewhat preposterous with what is currently known about their history.
Those who have presented to you the supposed evidence that this is even a remotely likely claim have made a positive claim. Their positive claim calls for positive evidence. Evidence that can pass the trials that makes science the great tool that it is.
Naturally you can believe what you want and share what ideas you want, but I'd suggest making it abundantly clear what the current academic status of the claims are and to fully understand the agenda of its proponents. In this case they are, and please excuse the harsness in my tone, religious zealots.
P.S.: You have responded very well to criticism so far. Thank you. It is admirable! The production of the video itself is also very good.
There is no evidence available, including modern DNA analysis, to support this hypothesis. A recently published study of the genetic origins of Japanese people does not support a genealogical link as put forward by Saeki.[5] Researcher and author Jon Entine emphasizes that DNA evidence excludes the possibility of significant links between Japanese and Jews
Thanks for your comment. Can you show me this new DNA research that proves no connection.
the quote i posted and the research that supports it are a cut and paste from Wikipedia
Far from truth. Japanese tradition or religion do not show any hint of monotheism.
There are many cultures that celebrate such lunar events. The full moon is party time, and every race knows about that. I think the creators of this video would like there to be some correlation between the two very distinct civilizations, and there is. Their names both start with J.
Thanks for your comment...full moon festivals that both light signal fires...whose patron deities both read from a scroll they both call the Torah/Tora...celebrated in two ancient cities with eleven gates and a Zion/Gion Festival... It's not that I would 'like' there to be a connection...for me just too many coincidences to be random...
The language tells us how Jewish is treated in Japan. Japanese is made up of Chinese and Yamato. Yamato language is considered to be the origin of Japanese, which is not Chinese.
There are some things to understand when comparing Japanese with both languages.
Japanese is Chinese. A Chinese language that translates the Yamato language.
So it is called an orphan.
It is the Yamato language that has something in common with Jewish.
Yamato people and Japanese are described as different species in Chinese history books. This is the initial stage.
The Japanese are the Chinese government that has exiled to Yamato. So at first I give myself the name of Yamato, but I am using this name.
NIPPON is an ancient Chinese language. It's not a Yamato word. And under the name of China, the king has traditionally protected Chinese history and Chinese books.
It was in the seventh century that they lost their Chinese identity.
Amaterasu Ogami, Ise Shrine and Nihon Shoki were made. The Japanese calligraphy is like the Old Testament.
What is happening here?
The Japanese (also known as ancient Chinese) has rewritten the name of the creator Asherah in Chinese. At the same time, all shrines have been replaced with shrines of Amaterasu. So there are only Chinese shrines in Japan.
Furthermore, according to the Nihon Shoki, the rewritten god was made the ancestor of the Chinese emperor. This is to deceive the Hebrew people in Japan and make them servants.
This attempt was unsuccessful and the Japanese emperor left Ise Shrine for about 1,000 years.
At the same time, the Chinese community will be destroyed, centered on the Japanese royal family, who have been intimate until then. Mixed race with Yamato people begins.
Furthermore, there was a country called Baekje in Korea, which was contributing to Japan in the morning, but they were separated. Baekje is a country ruled by the royal family before it was exiled to Japan. There was a country called Qin in China. The Chinese who impersonate the Yamato people also call themselves Qin. They will be chased in 385. Shortly thereafter, the city of Chang'an was born in Japan. Around Kyoto.
Therefore, Japanese characters are written in Chinese.
Differences in language can also be seen in numbers.
In standard Japanese, 1234 is read as "iti", "nii", "san", "sii", which is the same as reading in Chinese.
Yamato words are read as "hi", "hwo", "mee", and "your". Actually it is the same as English. And another one, "mono", "ji", "tri" and "tetra" are also used in the form of being incorporated in the language. This is the same as Greek. Thoughts such as "Mono_gatari" and "Mono_omoi" are written in Japanese. In Chinese notation, these are converted to Kanji with the same sound, so there is no meaning in Kanji and it is in a state where the meaning cannot be understood from Kanji.
In other words, it is like the people who erased other races in Auschwitz have Jewish relics.
That's why the language is strange and the sun emblem is chrysanthemum. They are also ethnically different. The Japanese are Mongoloid.
Certainly there are still Hebrew people in Japan. However, the number of people is small.
Japanese mythology also shows Japanese people persecuting them.
Kappa is a well-known Japanese youkai. The feature is that I like to wear a white plate on my head or a hat to make a smow.
The ancient Hebrews would have been wearing white hats and smou.
The pope in modern times will be the same.
Kappa has the same etymology as Kippa and "Calotta".
The grave of Creator Ashera is in YASUGI, IZUMO. For the Japanese, they have long been sealed because they are people who threaten the regime. So there is no shrine.
See Japanese Mythology for why the Creator's grave is in Japan.
Izanami has no creative myth. She came 3000 years ago. She created the country of Yamato, saying she came from the country of Ama. This is the myth of the beginning of Japan.
At this time, many Hebrews also arrived in Japan. Katakana in Japanese is not made by Chinese. This was supposed to be Hebrew.
However, be careful about myths written in Chinese. Most Japanese myths have been rewritten by the Chinese. Amaterasu Okami is made by the Chinese.
That's not true.
Consistency does not match other studies remarkably.
You should read more Chronicles of Japan carefully, and the interpretation of the Asian history is strange, too.
rosh chodesh is the new moon festival each month. are you referring to yom teruah?
Thanks for your comment...no, I am referring to the ancient practice of the first Rosh Chodesh of the New Year, at which time they lit signal fires at the first sight of the new moon.
Thanks again...I like the idea...Day of Shouting...should we bring this holiday back?
Do you know how the Bible describes Abraham and the ancient Jews of his line? They were a nomadic shepherd people who moved only strictly around Mesopotamia, Egypt and the Mid East as the need be. Do you see that same trait among the ancient Japanese? And the one crucial thing that identifies Jews as a peculiar people, is their FAITH in 1 God (monotheism) whom Moses called Yehovah Elohim. Do you see this in ancient and modern Japan? Other points I wish to share but uploader approval is tedious.
I have been living in Japan for 3 years now, and I don't see any resemblance.. I have lived in China too. Japan had it's major influence from Korea and China but Israel... I doubt.. There is also a guy which said that the Japanese language comes from Hebrew which is also not correct. Japanese comes meanly from Korean and Mandarin.
How does Jewish culture only appear in Japan, and not in the surrounding areas of China and India? I believe the 13th tribe of Israel made the journey to the eastern ends of the old world. Throughout this journey they were hunted by the Mongolian confederation conscripted by one of the known 12 tribes of Israel. While they were unsuccessful at thwarting them during their journey, they did manage to destroy any trace of thier journey. This is why we have no concrete evidence form the Bible?
are you kidding? Japan has had culutre for longer then jew's existed
can only simple English. There is an interesting Manai shrine in Japan.
The beginning of Manai shrine is from 2,500 years ago, Please watch videos.
天橋立 amanohashidate 動画 【HD 高画質対応】 ←（1：34sec,ver） search on youtube
The meaning of Amanohashidate is a bridge of God, or it is a pillar of God. Amanohashidate was an object of worship of the Manai shrine, Now not it in the object of worship.
To be continued .
country who keep traditions and doesnt collapse or weakens. perfect
Interesting but unrealistic.
In Japanese religions, such as Buddhism, you can even find a influence from Zoroastrianism, or influence from Brahmanism, but it's came through China continent.
Maybe you think Japan locates at the east end of the world, but actually it was affected by many aspect of world, such as study, export, and religion.
Those of us who studied Japanese learned that katakana were borrowed from Chinese characters in abbreviated form.
But the principal issue in all this is how Jews got to Japan and when they got there. We know that Jews came to China in the T'ang dynasty and later. So, did they continue on to Japan? Why weren't those ancient Jewish rituals incorporated into Chinese religion?
But let's play "devil's advocate" and accept the assertions in this video. If Jewish rituals have such a significant place in Japanese culture, how is it that anti-semitism has been so visible in Japan? (viz. www.ajcarchives.org/AJC_DATA/Files/889.pdf). Just ignorance? Has no one seen the photos taken at Amaterasu's lavish bat mitzvah?
They ARE in ancient Chinese religious rituals. Search: "Story of Noah in Chinese writing"
I don't exactly believe this whole Jewish ancestory thing as I'd rather believe in scientific proofs such as DNA tracing than possibly coincidental symbol/culture match, but IF this was true, then the logical way to think is that it's most likely due to the difference in civilization advancement between China and Japan back in those times. As Japan had a lower civilization level back then compared to China, the Jewish probably had more technology/culture to teach the Japanese than the Chinese would take in.
Rosh Chodesh was every month. It is still celebrated.
@WorldTurtleMedia I understand what you are trying to achieve, or do. Respectfully, no need to remove any comments on my behalf, I simple make it a rule to stand up and confront those who are obscenely hateful or disrespectful to any race or nationality. I wont comment anymore, feel free to remove my comments though if you so chose
@SamuraiTogo Youre a mix of Russia German and Japanese?
What do Jews and Israeli Jews think of Far east oriental people?
Jews = Japanese... YOUR HIGH!
Pure coincidence!
It is very sad that present Jewish people came from Kazakhstan 1000 years ago.
