I am a Spanish speaking Jew and I heard Ladino in songs. It is a blend of Portuguese, Spanish and Hebrew. If you speak Spanish you understand 70 / 80% of what they are saying. Awesome interview. Thanks
My wife’s mother’s family are Jamaican Jews. Their family name is Portuando and are sefardic. A long time ago they moved there from Cuba after escaping the inquisition . Her father however was of Ashkenazi descent (Solomon). My family is Belarusian and Iranian. B’h we are Torah observant and love all our brothers
Jerusalem first, then left since 70A.D. when the destruction took place. Some went into Africa, the tribe of Judah went into Spain then were banished. They then went into Portugal until the dispersion which they then scattered into North Africa, West Africa, further into Europe , America, Jamaica etc. This is just a snippet of the history of the Black Sephardic Jews. They were also the pirates of the Caribbean along with the Moors , who took revenge on the Spanish ships. All Black!
Great interview. I did want to add as someone who is part Ethiopian Jew, that the symbols seen in Ethiopia are there mainly because there has been a Jewish established presence there for over 2500 years. They are still there now waiting to make Aliyah. This interview was great!!!
I did my DNA I am IGBO and have LEMBA and Ethiopian Jew DNA. Both my parents and grand parents are black Jamaicans my DNA is found in Spain and Portugal in West and East Africa, Egypt, and Yemen in the levant. There is a difference between the bloodline linage descendants of Jacob the Israelites, and those who became Jews thru religious belief which is Judaism.
Converts thru religion are NOT the real JEWS (Rev. 2 vs9, 3 vs9). their behaviour and actions shows that. The europeans/caucasians who converted to JUDAISM between the 7th to 9th century are not JEWS. These europeans who converted to JUDAISM and came to the Americas from Europe are NOT the real JEWS nor are they descendants of the Biblical JEWS or Israelites. The Sephardic Jews who were kicked out of Spain were black people and NOT whyte people(UA-cam:. Sephardic Jews Expelled From Spain and Portugal to West Africa Were Black, Hidden Hebrew History;. How Israelites in Europe Disappeared from History, The Gates of Huldah; ) The only JEWS that were brought to JAMAICA and othe Caribbean islands that can claim any LEGITIMATE descent from the Biblical Jews were enslaved Afrikans who are the descendants of certain ethnic groups from Afrika who are the direct descendants of the Biblical Israelites such as the Igbos, Bantus from the Congo, Yorubas, Akan , Ashanti, Ibibio
My DNA also but my family still refuses to accept that we are a maternal lineage of lost Afro Jews in America. I was sent a vision when I was four and after DNA test of my then 96 year old grandma it all was proven. Our DNA also links us to the lost tribe in China and Cambodia.
All Jamaicans that have ancestors who were part of the slave trade, as indicated in the bible, are Jews. As a 75 year old Jamaican, I saw my parents and grand parents practicing: the men wore beards, they were circumcised 8 days after birth, they covered their heads at all times (look at the old pictures of the slaves in Jamaica), the women were not allowed to cook for men if they were mensturating. They also had a certain diet. For example, they ate only Sea food with Scales, only meat that have Hoof and were not allowed to eat Pork. Because of slavery, we were prohibited from practicing our Culture...However, some continued to wear Dreadlocks as depicted on the walls in Egypt. We are Jamaican Jews.
One correction here. All Jamaicans brought from Africa into enslavement are Israelites. Not Jews. Deuteronomy 28 people. 2nd Exodus will happen Isaiah 11:11. This man being interviewed is not from the tribe of Judah brought into slavery…how else

I must concur with the comments above to state the the symbolism that is used by the Rastafarians in Jamaica is originating from Ethiopia. It is held by the rastafarians that Haile Selassi is a direct decendant of Menelek who is the son of King Solomon and Queen Sheba. It is through this that the Jamaican Rastafarian uses the symbols of hebrewism.
Just to add that the Rastas that does meet for worship on Saturday in Papine Kingston Jamaica. While they celebrate Silasi they don’t worship like some Rastas. And they have stated that their beliefs is based in the Old Testament Scripture.
Refreshing interview, so much more needed to be said esp of migration of the Jewish faith in absence cultured expectations; ie, what it means to be in fact be of the Jewish faith. Thanks for airing. Shalom
True, but it came to Jamaica with the indentured servants from India. Amongst some of the Hindi were Sadhu Baba. They also brought ganja as well as our curry . This brother really doesn't know much about Rasta. Rasta borrows from Hinduism, Christianity and Judaism.
The history books we used in Jamaican schools gave no mention of the Jews assisting the British on the Penn and Venables mission that took Jamaica away from Spanish rule. The puzzle is fitting together nicely though. Thanks for the information.
There are many different types of Jewish people all over the world do not look one way. I also am Jamaican my great grandmother was a jewess my grandmother gave me the history of coming from Spain we are not of African heritage do have relatives in the states that still are practicing Jews. I also learnt a lot from this info. Thank You.
21:52 contrary to pop belief marijuana is not indigenous to Jamaica. Marijuana was brought to Jamaica by Indians who came to Jamaica during the indentured servant post slavery. It grew by the Ganges river-hence the term “ganja!” Also, Rastafarian is a blending of a lot of beliefs, and symbolism and philosophies. Rastafarianism adopted the ganja smoking after Indians brought it with them as part of their culture.
it is about time we the sephardi were there in jamaica for along time i am sephardi from kingston so many of us still live there , most of us did not mixed with the other people but some did . francis henriques aka sean paul my mother side is a henriques sephardi there are africa jamaica who converted and mixed jamaican who are jews
"Saturday soup" is a Jewish tradition that became popular in Jamaica. Columbus's son, Diego, married an Henriques. Most of the descendants of the original Jews from Iberia converted to Christianity, many of whom were devout Roman Catholics and Anglicans.
many ex-slaves took on the names of their masters both during and after slavery ended. They also simply chose surnames that they liked. Having a European surname does not necessarily mean that you are connected by blood to that family. To be sure, you need to do a DNA test.
@@elsarobinson4574even DNA doesn’t prove anything , the sefardim married their slaves .. they were Christian they had no roots in Judaism , for 600+ years non stop intermarriage. According to the Bible the first intermarriage all the children are bastards and not Israelites . Why are you making exceptions on the word?
@@elsarobinson4574the reality is most likely they are not any more connected to Israelite than you are , almost everybody on earth has a Hebrew somewhere in their family tree
I got some Jewish heritage only small but it’s present to the extent I have 3 different branches of Jewish heritage. Dna has changed my preconceived ideas of Jamaican history.
This is tough to listen to without a voice. This guy is trying to stay careful and is not telling the entire truth. Rasta cultural stance has always been that the deported and enslaved Blacks and their decendants around the world not just Jamaica are the lost tribes of Israel. Bob Marley and his group understood that ancestrally the best way to awaken and enlighten our lost people around the world from country to country was through music. It was through song that our ancestors escaped enslavement and messaged their families. The code to the underground railroad was braided into the hair and sung from plantation to plantation. Black Jews were not solely introduced to Jamaica. Although, Jamaica was a major port for many transactions. Also any group that has a certain melanine deptness was deemed Black at the time. The Bible said YSHWH's feet were as bronze tried in the fire three times. YSHWH would have been considered Black according to the standards of comparison back then. My maternal DNA places me into every region where a lost tribe has been discovered including from China throughout Southeast Asia like; Myammar, Indonesia, Cambodia , East Africa, Ireland, West African Igbo lost Jews, Ancient maps referred to the Tyrrhenian Sea region and ancient Isrealite lands and extensions from Egypt as North Africa. A part of history Anglo and Spanish history books leave out. So when it was said that the enslaved was from Africa they were referring the the old mapped regions of Jordan, Syria, Saudi Arabia and such.
What is pirate?? You say 'so badass' because you don't know enough about pirates. Henry Morgan was a slave trader - as most pirates were. If he was friends with Henriques, then it means that Henriques condoned slavery. That's not at all "badass!!" You got that wrong. If a Jamaican of African descent can trace heritage to a Jewish father, that means his African mother had children by a Jewish man. That does not mean that the woman was his wife. It most likely means that she was his property. Many people of African descent in the Caribbean and Americas can trace blood lines to various European cultures. This is because the European salve owners or workers on plantations slept with the African women. That is all it means. And again, those women were not their wives, but were most likely thier property. The Jews funded the slave trade to a great extent. I don't care if this man is a Jew, but let's not fantasize about how that happened. If descendants of enslaved people accepted Christianity, then it is reasonable that some of them accepted Judaism.
Christopher Columbus owned Jamaica was given by the King and Queen.. most of the pirates leaders were Pirates Columbus gave them.a life. Worked with Ductch and Morroco pirates.. so much color
I am an Ijaw Man, meaning the Ijaw tribe in Nigeria Africa. My tribe can be pronounced Ijaw or Izon, in the holy Bible book of chronicles we are spell ijo or ijon the great fighters. We are One of the lost tribes of Israel. We are black Jews

King Soloman introduced herbs as our Heavenly Father and blessed certain countries with the magical plant. so you see all what's going on in the world started in the mother land Africa even isreal the tectonic plates its starts on is Africa.
True Rasta from Jamaica always claim that they are a part of the twelve tribes of Israel, they don't eat certain things, their food 🥑🥝 has to be fresh they are very peaceful people they keep the Sabbath , I think they are mostly vegetarian.
Watched from Old Harbour Jamaica, very revealing. I have known our Jamaican Jews had some involvement in guiding the British here but had not idea they were behind it and it makes sense. Their is a lot of Jewish influences in Jamaican culture and their are still Jews on the island who can trace back their ancestry to the inquisition. Believe it or not Haile Selassi, I heard from another UA-cam video, was himself a Jew from the line of David thou King Solomon's relation with the Queen of Sheba and is said he is the last of the house of David to sit on a throne and Henry Kissinger was aware of this. I too understand the Bob Marley as Jewish roots, I learned this from a Jewish online magazine call Tablet Magazine some years ago. It published an article about a set of Jews who was trying to claim Bob Marley as their own as his father was a Syrian Jew plus the man how helped him come to prominence Criss Blackwell, his mother was a Spanish Jew. I have seen online wear Jews refer to Jamaica 🇯🇲 as 'Jew Maker' as it was Cristifer Columbus' intention to make it a Jewish island as he too had Jewish heritage. Amazing.
The Rastas see Haile Selassie as their messiah. The Ethiopian Royal House is the Solomonic House believed to be descendants of King Solomon from Israel and the Queen of Sheba hence why all the Jewish symbols on Rastafarianism.
Norval Sinclair Marley, Bob's father was half Jewish. I'm England born of Clarendon, Jamaica parents. My mother's mother was half Jewish. In a DNA test I took, it shows as Levantine.
Henriques, They're Portuguese. Most Jews in Jamaica are Sephardi. My Mum's family are descendants of those Portuguese Jews. I took my DNA w 23&me and my Mum was correct, it showed Portuguese (Sephardi) from Madeira in my results. St. Elizabeth had a large Sephardi cemetery in Lacovia. I don't know what it looks like today.
@@RichardWillis-fn4hg What do you know, there are some Ashkenazi Jews, the Stechers and other families, go to Mucurapo Cemetery, on the northern side, there are many Jewish graves and a few tombs, there is evidence also of when they came and why, which was during the 2nd WW. Also, some Portuguese Jews/Sherphadic Jews, came also, who began to set up shops and got into goods etc. I wanted to see what other information there was that they had, so do you have information to negate that, or to consider Jewish presence as fake,this has nothing to do with my views regarding the Ashkenazi or Sherphadic Jews and their legitimacy, history is history, bad, good or indifferent.
I already told you Jamaicans are Hebrew Israelites where are the 10 lost tribe come on the world know this they say they went to the moon and can't identify the 10 lost tribe

This guy is a Jamaican of African descent with some Jewish heritage or ancestry. He is not pure blooded Jew, and even the blind can see that. People need to face the reality about themselves, and stop claiming to be what they are not.
Most of the Jews around the world are people of colour but they have no wealth. Forgive me for my nativity but since a large percentage of Jews are in Africa which happens to be the richest continent in the world I just find it strange they they have no wealth and something sounds fishy to me.

True Rasta from Jamaica always claim that they are a part of the twelve tribes of Israel, they don't eat certain things, their food 🥑🥝 has to be fresh they are very peaceful people they keep the Sabbath , I think they are mostly vegetarian.
My maternal grandmother has a very unusual surname SPIED. I’m interested to know where it came from.
Watched from Old Harbour Jamaica, very revealing. I have known our Jamaican Jews had some involvement in guiding the British here but had not idea they were behind it and it makes sense. Their is a lot of Jewish influences in Jamaican culture and their are still Jews on the island who can trace back their ancestry to the inquisition. Believe it or not Haile Selassi, I heard from another UA-cam video, was himself a Jew from the line of David thou King Solomon's relation with the Queen of Sheba and is said he is the last of the house of David to sit on a throne and Henry Kissinger was aware of this. I too understand the Bob Marley as Jewish roots, I learned this from a Jewish online magazine call Tablet Magazine some years ago. It published an article about a set of Jews who was trying to claim Bob Marley as their own as his father was a Syrian Jew plus the man how helped him come to prominence Criss Blackwell, his mother was a Spanish Jew. I have seen online wear Jews refer to Jamaica 🇯🇲 as 'Jew Maker' as it was Cristifer Columbus' intention to make it a Jewish island as he too had Jewish heritage. Amazing.
Haley Selassie was not a Jew,he said he was not a Jew ,don't talk no sense
There is no special people
@@CarolineDunn-ql4wc well the bible said special people exist
No more Hileslasiya.
The real Jewish are the very dark once only.......
Steupssssss.... What's next😂
I’m a Jew from Dominica
Interesting story
The Rastas see Haile Selassie as their messiah. The Ethiopian Royal House is the Solomonic House believed to be descendants of King Solomon from Israel and the Queen of Sheba hence why all the Jewish symbols on Rastafarianism.
He was also a descendent of David
Norval Sinclair Marley, Bob's father was half Jewish. I'm England born of Clarendon, Jamaica parents. My mother's mother was half Jewish. In a DNA test I took, it shows as Levantine.
I am too, Jamaican Jew, my Dad has rasta hair, my Mama is Oromo, but I need to wear keepa like this white dude.
The shepherd know his sheep 🐑 dark and comely wolly hair 🇪🇹 👑
Henriques, They're Portuguese. Most Jews in Jamaica are Sephardi. My Mum's family are descendants of those Portuguese Jews. I took my DNA w 23&me and my Mum was correct, it showed Portuguese (Sephardi) from Madeira in my results. St. Elizabeth had a large Sephardi cemetery in Lacovia. I don't know what it looks like today.
there is saturday soup
The Jews are well documented in Trinidad & Tobago and also some of the other islands.
Where can I find such information on Trinidad
@@HasanAnyabwileall nonsense, about trinidad,fake
@ann the video is about jamaica, nobody wants to hear about your Riverton dump ,no name nation
@@RichardWillis-fn4hg What do you know, there are some Ashkenazi Jews, the Stechers and other families, go to Mucurapo Cemetery, on the northern side, there are many Jewish graves and a few tombs, there is evidence also of when they came and why, which was during the 2nd WW. Also, some Portuguese Jews/Sherphadic Jews, came also, who began to set up shops and got into goods etc.
I wanted to see what other information there was that they had, so do you have information to negate that, or to consider Jewish presence as fake,this has nothing to do with my views regarding the Ashkenazi or Sherphadic Jews and their legitimacy, history is history, bad, good or indifferent.
You can find it if you e-transfer me $10000. It is written in Broken Hebrew. Not, broken English as some none Jamaican Jews Speck
I already told you Jamaicans are Hebrew Israelites where are the 10 lost tribe come on the world know this they say they went to the moon and can't identify the 10 lost tribe
Deuteronomy 28 vs 65-68, Is 11 vs 11. The europeans/caucasians who converted to JUDAISM between the 7th to 9th century are not JEWS. These europeans who converted to JUDAISM and came to the Americas from Europe are NOT the real JEWS nor are they descendants of the Biblical JEWS or Israelites. The Sephardic Jews who were kicked out of Spain were black people and NOT whyte people(UA-cam:. Sephardic Jews Expelled From Spain and Portugal to West Africa Were Black, Hidden Hebrew History;. How Israelites in Europe Disappeared from History, The Gates of Huldah; ) The only JEWS that were brought to JAMAICA and othe Caribbean islands that can claim any LEGITIMATE descent from the Biblical Jews were enslaved Afrikans who are the descendants of certain ethnic groups from Afrika who are the direct descendants of the Biblical Israelites such as the Igbos, Bantus from the Congo, Yorubas, Akan , Ashanti, Ibibio

Escovitch fish is from the Jewish culture but Jamaicans make it to suit their palate.
From the what? No Africa the whole culture.
Natty dread locks goes back to biblical times....THE JAMAICANS.
Same culture just has Jews even the dietary law
I hope this helps the black Jews in Israel get better treatment from the people and government of Israel.
What the difference between being Jewish and Hebrew Israelites?
They are not Jews or Israelites. Israel is an imperialist state created by zionist ASHKENAZIS. The europeans/caucasians who converted to JUDAISM between the 7th to 9th century are not JEWS. These europeans who converted to JUDAISM and came to the Americas from Europe are NOT the real JEWS nor are they descendants of the Biblical JEWS or Israelites.

Jamaicans are the original Hebrew Israelites. Rastafarianism is the embodiment of that
Rasta has some right principals but they lose it when it comes to Selassie, Selassie is not God!
If you can trace your DNA through slavery, to West Africa, to Grenada Spain or Portugal (Negros), to Judah E1B1A ? Welcome to the family. Remember to keep the MOST HIGH'S Commandments, repent, praise and love HIM with all your heart.
Natty dread locks goes back to biblical times. LIFE

This guy is a Jamaican of African descent with some Jewish heritage or ancestry. He is not pure blooded Jew, and even the blind can see that. People need to face the reality about themselves, and stop claiming to be what they are not.

No way, he was a White man, European. The children of Judah were and still are all black.
@@tonysmith131you have real Jews and fake Jews
Most of the Jews around the world are people of colour but they have no wealth. Forgive me for my nativity but since a large percentage of Jews are in Africa which happens to be the richest continent in the world I just find it strange they they have no wealth and something sounds fishy to me.
Absolutely not. The europeans/caucasians who converted to JUDAISM between the 7th to 9th century are not JEWS.
