There are some inaccuracies. First- Yemenay Jews are actually genetically the closest to the ancient Israelites. Ethiopian Jews have Jewish paternal DNA and local maternal DNA. Which suggests that Jewish men who moved to Ethiopia married local women and started the Ethiopian Jewish communities. All Jews have DNA originated from the LEVANT. Yet, as you said, there were marriages with locals through history, and genes were mixed. Every diaspora community has some percentage of local genes in them. Mizrahi Jews of Babylon and Asyria (today's Iraq and Syria) were very ancient communities documented in the Bible.
@@n4049 Rubbish, many who practice Judaism are simply converts. Yemeni Jews are Arabians, and Ethiopian Jews are Horners, even by uniparentals, not just autosomes.
I'm Ashkenazi. I watched a random video of a street interview in ramalla and the man looked like my grandfather's twin. My dad looked like Marc lasry, a Moroccan Jew. What unites us all is that when we get married or when we die our prayers are to Jerusalem and the God of Israel. Even for Atheists like myself it is very clear that I am Jewish and that Israel is my home even if I live far away.
You are one group that ARE the authentic jews , Israelite. Don't believe this whole video though and don't let his brushed over notion that European jews have low frequency to none and that Ashkenaz where Ashkenazi comes from isn't a child of Shem where we get Semitic from. Arabs and Jews are Semitic.
@bey208 Every Jew is a child of the Shem! I love every Jewish person who is a good person in his core. He can even be an atheist, damn I was a one once. I'm just happy to find out that my DNA is probably closer to the Biblical Jews than I thought. My roots are from Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Iraq and Italy... so I guess it's pretty damn close. Many family members from my past were clergy and spiritual individuals in their home country, so it's really beautiful to hear this, especially because I'm an history nerd.
@industrialworld1 Gen.10:2-3 Now these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were sons born after the flood. 2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. And the sons of Gomer; ASHKENAZ, and Riphath, and Togarmah. This is straight from Genesis. So no they are NOT Semitic. So they aren't authentic Israelites nor jews. They are proselytized jews from Europe. But that ok. It's folks from those said communities, that falsely claim for the sake of land grab. And some from that community Are Zionist.(Thank god not all.) Which is not Judaism. In fact it's that community you'll find in popularized frequency downplay the traditions and customs of Sephardim, Mizrahi, African and Indian Koheen Israelites. Go read Theodore Herzl ,Jacobnsky to even Netanyahu 's Dad Benzion Mileikowsky who changed his last name to a Hebrew one Netanyahu.
@bey208 Ohhhh I thought you referred to "Hashem" (השם) which is God in Hebrew... not to the son of Noah! Anyways, yes I am aware that Harzel & Netanyahu are both scumbags who actually don't give a fuck about Judaism. Israel was extremely racist towards Mizrahiz Jews in the 30s-90s... calling them primitives and fake jews (although their DNA is closer to the Israelites and they were more religious in general) and still to this day, I can feel some kind of hidden racism from the Ashkenazic "elite" of Tel Aviv-Jaffo.
I don't hate anyone or wish anyone any more or less rights or more or less happiness in life because of their ethnicity, but I do find it criminal to actually take land from anyone based on weak ancient ancestry claims, and the people who did that in Palestine were a small subset of the Ashkenazim, who tried to sell the world powers the idea that they needed to get "home", to a place that never was home, to he vast majority of their ancestors. So, I do not accept the myth that the Jews of Europe were displaced ancient Jews; the DNA evidence shows that Judaism spread through the world in the last 2500 years much faster than Judean genes, just like Christianity spread out of ancient Judea, to genetically diverse people, while Judaism was abandoned in the land of its origin, with most converting to Christianity or Islam, years before the origin of endogamous Ashkenazi Jews. There should be nothing "magic" about European or any other Jews, giving them special land and warfare rights and privileges and definitions based on different rules than people associated with any other religion. There are plenty of Ashkenazi Jews who would agree with what I wrote above, and some who would agree about the genetic parts, but still, driven by "never again" extremism, assume special rights for Jews.
Oh look at that, Samaritans aren’t dark skinned like the indigenous Palestinians are supposed to be. I think people forget the levant was never super swarthy people like the bedouins.
@NR-uj1bj not convert, they are still highly israelites, but with other influences. That's normal after 2000 years of history in North Africa. Also North African population are naturally strongly connected to the Levant due to Neolithic and Bronze populations movement.
@johnsheehy4192 North African jews are in average around 65 to 75 % Levantin and west Asian. The rest being North African Amazigh or broader Mediterranean. If you compare with Palestinian of Sudanese ot Balkanese, Turkish, European crusaders...origin it's huge. If you compare with Samaritans or Levantin Christians, it's less .
@johnsheehy4192 For sure much much higher than Palestinian Muslims who married outside their communities and can take Sub-Saharan or European wives, when North African jews only married inside their communities. We don't have European Crusaders, Sudanese Slaves, Balkanese, Kurdish ... origins like them. We are mostly Judean and Amazigh.
@@bowlerfamily Karaites from Syria and Iraq also have a Levantine or Levanto-Mesopotamian DNA profile. Karaites from Crimea and elsewhere are vastly different however.
@@bowlerfamily Who said it's an ethnic designation? Much of the native Jews of Ottoman territory merged with incoming Sephardim who were expelled from Iberia. Karaites stand out genetically because Sephardic Jews were discouraged from marrying Karaites. The average Syrian Jew has significant admixture from European Jews The average Syrian Karaite does not. That's how a group becomes distinct. Through endogamy. And Karaites match that description very well, just like the Druze, Mandeans, etc.
A lot of misinformation in this video. The rabbinate doesn't consider Samaritans to be Jews. Sephardic Jews are Jews who follow the Sephardic variety of Judaism, not necessarily the ones who descend from Spain. Mizrahi Jews are not a thing, that's just a colloquial term for any Jews descending from Muslim countries
Inside the Ashkenazi there are sparadic jews. Because it found the the Ashkenazi jews created from two group that was different genetic, one group we called her the eastern group that found in this group a lot of sparadic jews. The other group we called the western group was without any genes from the middle East. The two group mixed in the ratio of 60% from the eastern group and 40% from the western group. Both two group have genes from italy. From the mix of the two group the Ashkenazi jews was created that was in germany in the city of arford in the 14th century. After the mix the Ashkenazi jews are between 15% to 45% from the middle East. Between 45% to 70% from italy mainly southern Italy. And something like 15%from germany. If the Ashkenazi jews compare to people from southern Italy than the middle East part is only 15% But if the Ashkenazi jews compare to people from northern italy that the middle East part growing to 45%. That means that the Ashkenazi jews are the most close genetic to the people that lived today in southern Italy.
Not true. Jews who left Israel but stayed in the middle east were called "Mizrahim" (Easterners) When the Jews in Spain (Sephardim) left for N. Africa & the middle east these 2 groups merged. Since the Sephardim overwhelmed the Mizrahim in both population & Jewish knowledge & learning the Mizrahim were absorbed by the Sephardim. But they are 2 different groups with different histories.
Wait, Samaritans have higher amounts of Canaanite DNA, and some Mizrahi Jews also have big amounts of Amorite/Canaanite DNA. There is a difference between Israelite and Canaanite/Levantine DNA. Israelites have an Aramaic genetic component. Jacob/Israel was calling himself an Aramean. So it's obvious that ancient Israelites had an Aramaic DNA but also a Canaanite Genitic Component. Spanish Jews and Ashkenazi Jews have higher Canaanite Hittite Amounts. The Hittites are a Hamitic tribe with a Semitic admixture, and also an smaller white/european admixture, close to Greeks and especially Greek Cypriots and Sicilians and also to southern Italians in general.The Hittites are called an European Nation, close to modern day southern Europeans and Northwestern middle easterners. The so called southern European DNA amongst Ashkenazi Jews and Spanish Jews, is mostly of Ancient Hittite Origin, and Hittites were Native to Canaan, Israel, the ancient Levant and to Anatolia „the Armenian Highlands“ according the Bible, Judah had 2 wife's, his first wife was of a Hittite Origin, that's why Judahs sons Er, Onan Selah were half-Hittites. The Hittites were also Natives of many Jewish Cities, like Jerusalem, Bethlehem, and Hebron and they converted in very high amounts to Judaism and DNA is proving this. Amorites with lower or no European DNA amounts were much more common in the area of Arad ancient Judah. One thing is very clear, the biblical Canaanites with European DNA are the Hittites, but the amount of European DNA is still very low amongst Southern Europeans and Hittites Canaanites which makes them genetically similar. This is proving that modern day European Jews like Ashkenazim and Sephardim trace their heritage mostly to Judahs Hittite Cities like Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Hebron, and the Hittite areas of Ancient Judah. Many Mizrahi Jews trace their heritage to Amorite areas of Judah. All this genetic information is proving that modern European Jews like Ashkenazim and Sephardim trace their heritage mostly to Judahs Hittite Cities like Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Hebron, and the Hittites areas of Ancient Judah. The final conclusion is, that Ashkenazi Jews and Sephardi Jews are related to the Levant, and the so called „southern European“ part in some of the Ashkenazim and Sephardim is mostly of Hittite Canaanite origin.
Ashkenazi Jews have white skin, Sephardi Jews are dark-skinned, and Mizrahi Jews from Yemen are even darker. 'Beta Israel' from Ethiopia are Black, and Kaifeng Jews from China look like typical Asians. So, what Jewish DNA are we talking about? Additionally, anyone can go through a giyur (conversion to Judaism) and become Jewish.
@@KiruvMedia About Half of Ashkenazi Ancestry is through converts as only 35% of Ashkenazi men 25% Of Ashkenazi women have Levantine origins, albeit, the have 40% Middle Eastern Origins.
You can’t determine a person’s ancestry just based on skin color. That’s a very superficial and simplistic way of approaching genetics. For example, sub Saharan Africans and Australian/Polynesian aboriginals may look similar but these populations diverged over 40000 years ago! Linguistically and genetically aboriginals are more similar to southeast Asians than Africans. And west Africans are more related to light skinned North Africans than aboriginals. The Jewish groups you mentioned all still share a common ancestry originating from the Levant. Just because they look different doesn’t change that. You are confusing genotype with phenotype.
@@VanLightning900 Maybe my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather was the Emperor of China. But it doesn't make me Chinese if subsequent generations married non-Chinese. What skin color do Germans have? You are not German if you are black, but your great-great-great-great-grandfather was German.
@DinoBryce In biblical times, paternal lineage was considered decisive for Jewish descent. From the 2nd century onward, with the compilation of the Mishnah, maternal lineage became the determining factor. According to Halacha (Jewish law), you are considered 100% non-Jewish if only your father is Jewish, but your mother is not. However, if a non-Jewish woman converts to Judaism before the birth of her child, the child is considered 'born Jewish.' Jewish descent is no longer a purely biological matter; the connections to the 12 tribes of Israel have been lost.
this is the correct order for Canaanite/Israelite bronze age levantr dna percentage in modern population. Samaritan > Levantine Christians (very close to Samaritan) > Lebanese muslims some shia scoree as high as Christians > Palestinian/shami syrian Muslims > non Levantine mezrahi jews > Sephardic jews > ashkinazi jews phenotype wise even Ashkenazi can look very Levantine themselves as their European ancestry is just southern European very close to the levant only few Ashkinazi tend to have a more northern phenotype , the standard jews look even for ashkinazi is very Mediterranean/light middle eatsern from what i've seen unless they have very recent Norther Ancestry Slavic or Germanic.
@@JoaquimvfcOmg I have never seen someone so true!

Example is that Palestinian Muslims have a Canaanite to Israelite Ratio of 54:46 while Ashkenazi Jews have a same ratio but with the values of 48:52 according to a study by Nebel.
@@Joaquimvfc Sounds like a Hasbara word salad. Virtually all of the Canaanites merged into the Jewish population and disappeared as a distinct group. Why do you think there is a story of Jesus Christ attending a Jewish Wedding in Canaan? We're talking 20 miles or less, here! The most likely scenario is that the first Israelites were culturally rebellious Canaanites who moved to the hills west of the Jordan, started giving unique status to Yahweh and his wife Ashera, with their priests getting monotheistic long before the general public, but eventually, all Israelites became monotheistic. Over time, Polytheistic Canaanites also became Yahweh-worshipping monotheists, and the gene pools recombined. So, in this highly-likely scenario, there is no current difference between Canaanite and Israelite ancestry, because they mixed back together, long, long ago.
Syria lebanon Egypt all have genes for the Levant that no mean only israelite they mixed from all the nation that lived in the region during the Bible. The israelite is only one group for what called the Levant in the Bible time was many nation that close to each other. Also the Muslim syrian have 30% genes from Saudi arabia. I think the Palestinian have even more than 40% from Saudi arabia because the Palestinian are very diverse because they came from many countries to palestina lot of palestinian came to palestina from syria lebanon and Egypt, but there also palestinian that originally from saudi arabia yemen are even from Libya. So that they from the Levant don't tell that they from Israel, some of them from Israel mainly in southern mountain of Hebron. But most came from syria lebanon Egypt
@@seanvandiijk2889There is no evidence supporting Hyksos being the same as Israelites, though it has been suggested as possible. It’s safer to look for Levantine ancestry, particularly from the Bronze and Iron Age in current-day Israel. Those who lived there, with the exception of the philistines, were mostly Israelites.
@oronjoffe Simcha Jacobovici just destroyed all those "expert archaeologists" that practice mental gymnastics in order to deny the hiksos being our ancestors. People today see the world and the Jews and the first image they have is those ultra Orthodox of ghettos during nazi Germany period, they imagine the bible being a story of people all similar to such holy group of Jews. The reality is across history Israel was a very rebellious nation practicing the worst crimes under the sun, the jews of today represent only one tribe, in the time of egypt and even after king Saul, Israelites were sinning on the daily basis, with idol worship everywhere and even child sacrifice, Israel reached the 49th level of impurity when they got out of egypt, so no we as nation were not as rabnis from bnei Brak, the difference is Israel wanted to repent every day.
It depends on what you define as the group that is the source of the Jewish DNA. According to them, Ethiopian Jews have never assimilated and are the Jewish origin, therefore it is impossible to state it that way
No, because you can compare it to other groups known to have common ancestors as the Jews. Ethiopian Jews have significantly less semetic dna, but that also makes sense considering they diverged from the rest of the nation earlier on. That still doesn’t make them any less Jewish.
Also if every other Jewish group is very closely related to eachother and Ethiopian Jews are the only genetic outliers, how exactly could you use their genetic makeup as the original? Like it makes no sense genetics aren’t a relative issue
It doesn't matter. I am Jewish. I claim Ethiopian Jews as ours. Their God is ours and we all belong to him. Besides we all come from Adam! What's the big deal?
This whole discussion about genetic distance is a sham because it has been established that every jewish group except beta israel/ethiopian jews have ydna that is levantine haplogroup. Using a genetic distance or autosomal dna is not accurate as the dilution is obvious within 200 years. The samaritan for example has been taking a wife from ukraine, russia and other slavic nations since the last 2 decades thus their genetic distance from the so called “ ancient israelites” will deviate more despite they maintain intermarriage between their own people just like every jewish ethnicity
the samaritans are true levantines thats why they share the most dna with ancients of the area but majority of jewish groups are converts thats why they dont share as much dna but they share dna with their neigbours from other religions cause in the past people could convert just like other religions but isreal in the past was a tribe the true isrealites are the beta isreal of ethiopia or the yemenite jews the beta isreal share the most customs with the biblical isrealites they probably migrated out of egypt during exodus with the ark into ethiopia
They are converts of Chinese origin. About 100 years ago a Rabbi went there and converted some people and ran a small Synagogue for a while then he left. He never married a Chinese woman I think he was married already to a Jewish woman and had children there actually. The left eventually. China treats them as a cult. They are not an ethnic group. But Israel let a few women convert officially to orthodox Judiasm and let them make Aliyah to Israel. But Israel officially sees these people as a convert group. But they are given the same rights as all other Jews.
you mean the kaifeng jebrejos? she really has to say that the Chinese don't like jebrejos; the whole of Buddhist Shinto Hindu Asia doesn't like jebrejos.
Whether someone is Israel or not is tested by one and only one marker: How they respond to the Hebrew language. If one's "DNA" is Hebrew, they read Hebrew entirely differently than do outsiders who try to understand Torah and can't get past the gatekeepers.

Ancient Jewish DNA findings have been discovered in several key archaeological sites in the Middle East, primarily in Israel and its surroundings. Here are some major findings: The Skull Cave at Masada - At Masada, remains attributed to the Jewish population from the time of the Great Revolt against the Romans were found. DNA tests on bones from the site helped understand the origins of the population and the health conditions of the rebels. Burial Sites in Jerusalem - In Jerusalem, burial sites from various periods, including the Second Temple period, were found. These findings provide insights into the ethnic and genetic background of the Jewish residents of the city and the surrounding area at that time. Galilee and Beit She’arim - In sites in the Galilee region, which became a hub of Jewish activity after the Second Temple's destruction, human remains with DNA help trace the connection between ancient and modern populations. The Cave of Letters near the Dead Sea - In this cave, remains from the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt were found, including genetic findings that shed light on the origin of the fighters and the community of the revolt. These studies are conducted using advanced technologies, enabling comparisons between ancient and modern DNA, providing insights into the genetic and historical connections of the Jewish people across different periods.
@amosziss2739 No ANCIENT Israelite DNA has been tested, this means none of the 12 sons of Israel nor their children or grandchildren have been found and tested. Now some remains from Israel have been tested but no writing was found in the burial site to identify them
The Samaritans are a unique ethnic and religious group originating from the Samaria region, whose beliefs are based on the written Torah but differ slightly from traditional Judaism. Samaritans consider themselves direct descendants of the northern tribes of Israel, mainly the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, and claim to preserve the original traditions of the people of Israel as they were before the destruction of the Kingdom of Israel and the Babylonian exile. In traditional Judaism, there is debate regarding whether Samaritans are considered Jewish, making it a complex question. Many view the Samaritans as a group that is close to but distinct from the Jewish people, primarily because their beliefs and practices differ and they did not adopt the later traditions that developed after the First Temple's destruction. In fact, during the Second Temple period, there were tensions and complicated relations between Jews and Samaritans, which led to cultural and religious separation between them. Today, Samaritans mainly live in the Mount Gerizim area and in Holon, and they are considered a unique and ancient community with their own heritage.
@@realSneakyB Exactly. That's even mentioned on their website: They aren't Jews, and instead there is a debate about them. Only according to Israeli law they are considered Jews, but not according to Jewish law. So, they shouldn't be mentioned here on this video. Instead it could be nicer to see Jews that actually have lived on the land for generations, even when the majority of Jews were exiled.
Their theology and practice are somewhat different , but genetically they are either descendents of the Israelites, as they maintain, or foreigners who were brought in by the Assyrians, as described in the book of Kings.
Hey! What about the Jews from the Ottoman Empire?? You skipped them completely. Today's Turkey, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia. (Northern Macedonia? Albania? ) Would they all be direct descendants of the Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jewish branches? Or were there some autochthonous ones in today's Turkey prior to the Ottoman invasion from Mongolia?
@momolevy and a good number of Ashkenazi, too. I personally know some Kramer and a Rot from Serbia and some Weiss from Hungary and Serbia, and a Czernitz (which is Schwartz) from Slovenia and Croatia. Then again, I also met some with Sefardi last names like Cabillo , Salom, Demayo, Abramowich, Davidovich, all from my native Belgrade, Serbia. The most intriguing is Bilbija (Bilbiya) which seems Turkish to me.
They are Sephardi. After the expulsion from Spain, Jews migrated to the Ottoman Empire where they were welcomed. The communities you mentioned were all part of that migration. Of course, there will also be some other Jews there (probably Ashkenazi) but the earliest stratum are pure Sephardi.
@@oronjoffe Quite a few Muslims in the former Ottoman empire, who assumed that their families were Muslim since the 7th century, actually test with significant amounts of European Jewish ancestry. So, the Sephardic immigrants became part of the Muslim population, too.
0:53 "Semitic speaking..." they moved from Africa to Levant and back to Africa (says various papers). There's definitely a very strong connection. They are Jews.❤
I'm still waiting for the part of the video which links a particular group to the DNA or haplogroup of Yakov or even Yehudah himself.... All I see is "this group matches a group of people who have claimed to be the true untouched bloodline." Anyway it's partially bloodline and partially the soul.
Hebrew is a Semitic language, from the Afro-Asiatic language family, known as the language of the Jews and the Samaritans. It belongs to the Canaanite language family and is the only Canaanite language spoken today
This is very biased advertising for these DNA testing companies, whoever did this article is making several presumptions. First you must start from a original sample of somebody who has a tradition of not having intermarried since before the common era and although is it true samaritans from Mt. Gerizim have ancestry, Yemenite Jews are one of the most accurate samples after the master sample, Yemenites have near 70% of haplogroup yDNA J1 also known as the "jewish haplogroup" and sephardic Ashkenazic jews have huge percentage of that also. Now the strongest DNA of ancient Israel is in plain sight hidden, Western Europe Haplo R1b, has been found in mummies that should belong to Yoseph himself. Disclaimer, despite someone being biologically Israelite that doesn't make him jewish, Jewishness goes by maternal lineages i assume mother to daughter, not to son but I'm not an expert. Both lineages must be preserved for someone to be considered both jewish and Israelite.
J1 is not the Jewish haplogroup, it’s more the Arab haplogroup than anything. But 20% of Ashkenazis and sephardics have it - including me. it’s found all across Levant and middle east but highest in Arabia
@@PodcastCentral333 J1 is the common Semitic paternal haplogroup and it’s more probable that the Paternal Genes of Ancient Israel carry that particular haplogroup
@@EM-tx3ly nope, ancient israelites had a diverse range of haplogroups, as do modern lebanese christians and samaritans who are the closest to ancient jews due to not-mixing, J1 is just one of these haplogroups, typically found around 20% in ancient and modern jews, and 70% in arabs from the arabian peninsular. its a semitic, very arab haplogroup that non-arabs have at loweer percentages.
@@PodcastCentral333 arabs have that haplogroup because many of them are actually from the lost seed of Israel.

The genetic signature that shows the jewish people is unique, is particular and no other nation in the world has it.
No new informations to me It was known in the genetic circles since over 15 years. That Samaritans resemble ancient Israelites the most. Followed at 2nd place by Mizrahi Jews of Kurdish, Aramaic, Iranian or Caucasus origin. Followed at 3rd place by Sephardic, Yemenite and Ashkenazi Jews.
@@gamalnassertvOn the DNA chart in 00:47 they seem to have more Jewish DNA than the Yemenites and I’m not denying they have Horner blood but the minor Israelite blood comes from their ancestry which they developed their Jewish indentiy and culture from 2500 years ago, so yes, they are Israelites with East African blood just like Ashkenazim are Jews with European blood
You need to consider the genetics of the ancient Israelites which is about 50% shared with Anatolian farmer ( Canaanites people) , since Europeans are sharing a large DNA lineage with Anatolian farmers as well that the reason Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews (who are more Sothern Europeans have a lineage to Levantine people because Southern Europeans sharing large of their ancestry with Levantine ( Canaanites people) as well. The question how these group link to Canaanites cluster which is a mix of (Anatolian farmer, Caucasians-Zagros mountains people and the indigenous people of the Levant the Natufian people). I believe that most of Ashkenazi Jews lineage to Canaanites very similar to any southern Europeans.
Judaism does not require Jewish DNA The reason is simple. The 12 tribes do not always share equal dna. The Ethiopian tribe of Dan, "Beta Israel", was cut off from Israel for 2600 years. He did not mix with the other tribes and therefore you will not find Jewish DNA in him Asian Jewry is also divided into tribes, but there is more intermingling between them because they kept in touch with each other on some level But Ashkenazi Jewry and Sephardic Jewry have mixed in such a way that it is impossible to know which tribes are mixed in them and therefore they are the Jewish mainstream and they are determined by the dominant tribe that makes them up, the Ehuda tribe. and according to them the Jewish dna was determined

Lol this proves nothing genetic results show that askhenazi are mostly of european origin Look there is no ''jewish ethnıcity'' %80 of the jews look ''alike'' because they are of askhenazi ethnicity, askhenazis are just one of the ethnicities that practice judaism just as as there are different ethnicities that practice islam such as persians, arabs, turks etc there are different ethnicities that practice judaism such as askhenazi,sephardi,haymonot,krymchak these ethnic groups are not related to eachother at all they just share a common religion a askhenazi jew is not the same ethnicity with a sephardi or a kaifeng jew or mizrahi jew all they share in common is the religion

To say Ashkenazis and Sepharidics are not related is just stupid and no the link of Arabs, Turks and Indonesians in Islam is not the same as in Judaism. The closest Jewish group to Ashkenazis are Sepahridcs as has been shown by dna tests and other analysis on these diasporic populations which shows that the two groups branched of roughly a thousand years ago in the northern Italian Peninsula after a population of Jews migrated into the Iberian Peninsula and the rest went to the Rhineland, where the foundational Ashkenazi population was established and according to a Harvard study that was conducted in Erfurt, Germany, where medieval Ashkenazi Jewish remains were uncovered the early Ashkenazi populations were of mixed Levantine ancestry (mainly from the paternal line) with the maternal line being mainly of Italian, Greek, with some minor Levantine and Germanic-Slavic ancestry. However, the Germanic only made up roughly 20% of the maternal genetics if I remember correctly which is hardly anything especially considering it is just coming from a m marker. In fact, look at photos of Arabs and Jews n the early 1800 and 1900s. Especially when wearing European clothing, many Arabs from the Levant looked like Ashkenazi Jews and in come cases Italians and this goes on even to day as I was tested by ancestry to be 32% Ashkenazi Jewish, and the site even said that "our Jewish ethnicity defined a our other regions. The historic dispersal of the Jewish population from its origin in the Levant on the east coast of the Mediterranean resulted in communities scattered throughout Europe, North Africa, Central Asia, and the Middle East." Also, my grandfather who is full blood Ashkenazi has been misidentified for being Lebanese, Italian, Greek, and Armenian several times. Also the reason many Ashkenazi Jews appear more white in modern days compared to just a century ago is after the Holocaust many took European spouses. Hope this helped.
thats ziotard lies askhenazis are .580 percent genetically european www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5380316/ and seferads are half spanish tell me apart from religion what makes sepherads and askhenazis the same ethnicity the genetics are different the languange (yiddish and ladino) is different if these two peoples are the same ethnicity just because they share a religion then arabs and turks are also the same ethni
Facts don't matter to you, genetic "experts" out there, I know. But what about the Mizrahi/Sephardic Jews? Not "European", never were. How do you explain them, genius??
The Samaritans though were originally from Babylon, and converted to Judaism, it has always been a debate on if they converted out of will or not. However at certain points in Jewish law they are trusted with like being a normal Jew, however this changed and they could not be trusted with Jewish law.
I would like to know my origin ethnics during the last 2000 years. The problem has been forbidden for 2023 January in France. It's unfair ! I really like to know my origins. 😢
It’s not about race. The terms and conditions of the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants with the people of Israel confer blessings if only if the people keep it. Otherwise, it’s a rough road for them. This obligation was not imposed on any other people by God. All the gentiles have it easier so to speak. As long as they keep the basic moral law and believe in God. You just don’t understand what Judaism is yet.
The channel already talk about them and they are descendents of the jews who left behind and intermarriage with arab but some of the Palestinians mostly Christians remain full jewish because they probably didn't married with arabs by short Palestinians are comprised of full blood jews and arab jews
What are Palestinians? There is no specific "Palestinian" ethnicity, but rather an assortment of tribes, many descended from people who migrated into the region.
@@HillelYaari This is only partly true. Yes Palestinians are descended from the many peoples who have inhabited the region over the past 2000 years including Bedouins, Jews, Samaritans, Druze, Crusaders, Circassians, Greeks, Armenians, Turks etc. There is also much diversity within the Palestinian population with minorities of Samaritans, and Black Palestinians. However, the genetics clearly demonstrates that most Palestinians get most of their ancestry from the Ancient Israelites and that they are closer genetically to some Jewish groups than they are to people from the Arabian peninsula.
Let’s not waste time on this nonsense subject, anyone practicing Judaism is a Jew and leave it to HaShim to be the judge. Those who consider themselves more Jewish, now is the time to prove it! Israel at war and we need your help if you young join the IDF, if you have money donate to help.
Samaritans are descendent of the Kutim, non Jews that converted at the beginning of the 2nd Temple Period. They mixed with Jews, but are mostly descendant from that tribe. To compare each Jewish population to the genetic composition of Arabs and Lebanese is misleading. How does that show who is closer to the Israelite DNA???? The composition of the Middle Eastern peollples change a lot throughout history, moved by the Babylonians, and muced by the many Empires that ruled there. So the best way to find Jewish DNA is to look at the common DNA of all jews, not to compare Jews to non Jewish Middle Easterns.
@PodcastCentral333 I am here saying that that's not true. Samaritans are the descendants of the Kutim, a group of non Jews that converted. Throughout history they mixed with some Jews and bc of their closed community kept their ethnicity and DNA.
@@davidcohenboffa1666 well even many of us jews descend from 2nd century BCE edomites who were force converted to judaism under the Hasmoneans. I'd go as far to say that 12%-25% of all Levantine Jewish DNA that all us modern jews have comes from judaized edomites. So nothing is always so simple
Despite starting off a bit objectively, in regard to Indian, Ethiopian, and Arabian/Yemeni Jews being a bit distant from Israelites, and admitting how close Levantine Christians are (a good start), this video then implies through semantic innuendo that European Jews are about 1/2 Israelite, which is quite a stretch of the facts. Yes, there is Y-DNA running through up to half of the European Jewish male populations that may be from the middle east and present in the ancient Levant, but it is not specific to ancient Judean Jews, but only *could* be from there. Even if those Y-DNA haplotypes were from actual Israelites, which is a stretch, considering the wide ancient range of those haplotypes, most of what people *are*, genetically, comes from neither the maternal-line mitochondrial DNA for both sexes nor the Y-DNA for males only. There are 22 chromosomes in males and 23 chromosomes in females that are most of a person's genetic makeup, and most of that is not from Israelites. It seems the video is using two different methods of analysis for European-Js and non-Euro Js. Non-Euro comments seem to be based on "genetic similarities and differences", and the Euro-J comments are based on "what could be" stretched to the extremes, and only considering ONE ancestor of males (their father's father's father's father, etc.), back when they had hundreds or thousands of ancestors! Yes, Y-DNA lines tell you a lot about one thin line of your ancestry, but only a small fraction of your entire genetic identity.
@PodcastCentral333 the samaritans were exiled by the asyrians from their native land in modrn day iraq, from the city of kuta and its surroundings, thet converted to Judaism and mixed with the local israelites. This still means they have lived in is israel continuously for more than 2500 hundred years
Those studies are meaningless for 2 main reasons 1. Having genetics homogenous society was never a premise in Israelite or Jewish society. 2. The introduction of Israelite genes to the population that hosted the Jews is not accounted for while evaluating genetic proximity.
i would expect jews not to make those genes distinctions. especialy in better then others and pureness connotentions. we all know too well what is can bring
John Hopkins DNA study from 2022 conform that 80% of the Palestinians have a Hebrew DNA and are very Semitic people, while more than 90% of Jews are khazarian Jews from now (Ukraine). They were pagans who converted to Judaism in the 8th century. Nothing about them are biblical.
Except that's not true😂😂 Arab Palestianians are Semetic people just like the Jews so obviously they carry mostly Semetic dna. Arabs and Jews have the same Semetic ancestors. They (Palestianians) dont have majority Hebrew dna. Very little if at all actually. Semetic, not Hebrew. Now, the thing about Jews being Khazarian has been debunked countless times so I wont give it more attention than it needs. Literally ZERO studies proved Jews being Khazarian.
90% is a bold ridiculous statement, let along factual. The Khazarian theory never was confirmed, nor does it respected among scholars for its ridiculous claims, as actual genetic components hold little to absolutely none genetic link to Turkic DNA. It is a theory that was pushed hardly by anti-Semites though to delegitimize the Jewish culture, particulary as opposition for the Israeli statements about being in their ancestral homeland. Moreover, Judaism is more than a religion, it is a common racial genetics among a diverse diasporas of people from all across the world who share connection to the Levant, just for your general knowledge.
W, I love Yemen and also find Jewish history pretty cool. Glad to see some of you have the consciounce to look past tribalism and stand against injustice. As a Libyan (alongside Yemen we had one of the oldest Jewish diasporas in the world) I am sad colonialism and sectarianism destroyed the Arab worlds' ancient and unique Jewish communities, our countries are certainly culturally poorer without them.

European Jews are just converts from Southern Italy, in fact, Southern Italians have the same amount of "Levant" as European Jews which you forgot to mention that. There are zero historical sources of Israelites leaving or being expelled from the Romans. But there are records of a mass convert of Italians into Judaism. Mizrahi Jews have no Levantine ancestry at all, they do not even cluster with Levantines, an Iranian Jew will cluster with other Iranians, not with Levantines. A Moroccan Jew will cluster with other Moroccans, not with Levantines, which you fail to show that. You are spreading lots of misinformation on your videos with no backup sources.
1) Yes, Southern Italians do have significant Levantine ancestry. Now, how and when do you think this ancestry appeared in this region? 2) There are multiple sources about Jewish immigration to Italy during the Roman era. 3) Iranian Jews do have significant Levantine ancestry. And no, they don't cluster with Persians, see 5:18. Same for Moroccan Jews who cluster with other Maghrebi Jews and quite close to European Sephardim. 4) All the sources are available in the description. I showed multiple PCAs taken from Kopelman et al. 2020.
Ironically, it's you who are spreading misinformation. Sephardim European Jews have more Levantine DNA than southern Italians. Ashkenazi score roughly the same as Sicilians on Neolithic calculators, because of extra Germanic and Slavic admixture which Sephardim don't have. However Ashkenazim and Sicilians have vastly different backgrounds from an Iron Age perspective. As for Mizrahi Jews: Iraqi Jews are mostly Babylonian converts, but there's a Levantine shift compared to Assyrians and Mandeans. Iranian Jews are basically the Iraqi Jewish diaspora. They are vastly different from Iranian Muslims. Same goes for Georgian, Mountain and Bukharan Jews. It's the Babylonian Jewish diaspora, with slight admixture from locals. Egyptian Karaites are mostly indigineous Levantines, with slight Egyptian and Sephardi admixture. Syrian and Lebanese Jews are mostly Levantine, with noticable Sephardi admixture. North African Jews cluster nowhere near North African Muslims. Moroccan Jews are of mostly Sephardi descent and only a small Berber admixture. Libyan Jews are similar, but with a shift toward Egyptian Karaite Jews.

Actually even if Ashkenazi Jews share some small amount of Israelite Levantine ancestry, it’s still not as much as that which is found among Palestinians I guarantee you!
Genetic studies was done of Palestinians. Most of their genetics is similar to Saudis and Emirates because they all originally came from the Arab peninsula.
@@hpys That is not true. The most recent studies show that the majority of Palestinian DNA comes from the region for the past 4,000 years. The Arabisation process 1,000+ years ago throughout the modern Arab world involved a relatively small movement of people along with a large degree of cultural and linguistic transfer.
the samaritans are true levantines thats why they share the most dna with ancients of the area but majority of jewish groups are converts thats why they dont share as much dna but they share dna with their neigbours from other religions cause in the past people could convert just like other religions but isreal in the past was a tribe the true isrealites are the beta isreal of ethiopia or the yemenite jews the beta isreal share the most customs with the biblical isrealites they probably migrated out of egypt during exodus with the ark into ethiopia

There are some inaccuracies. First- Yemenay Jews are actually genetically the closest to the ancient Israelites. Ethiopian Jews have Jewish paternal DNA and local maternal DNA. Which suggests that Jewish men who moved to Ethiopia married local women and started the Ethiopian Jewish communities.
All Jews have DNA originated from the LEVANT. Yet, as you said, there were marriages with locals through history, and genes were mixed. Every diaspora community has some percentage of local genes in them. Mizrahi Jews of Babylon and Asyria (today's Iraq and Syria) were very ancient communities documented in the Bible.

So they aren't authentic Israelites nor jews. They are proselytized jews from Europe. But that ok. It's folks from those said communities, that falsely claim for the sake of land grab. And some from that community Are Zionist.(Thank god not all.) Which is not Judaism.

I don't hate anyone or wish anyone any more or less rights or more or less happiness in life because of their ethnicity, but I do find it criminal to actually take land from anyone based on weak ancient ancestry claims, and the people who did that in Palestine were a small subset of the Ashkenazim, who tried to sell the world powers the idea that they needed to get "home", to a place that never was home, to he vast majority of their ancestors. So, I do not accept the myth that the Jews of Europe were displaced ancient Jews; the DNA evidence shows that Judaism spread through the world in the last 2500 years much faster than Judean genes, just like Christianity spread out of ancient Judea, to genetically diverse people, while Judaism was abandoned in the land of its origin, with most converting to Christianity or Islam, years before the origin of endogamous Ashkenazi Jews. There should be nothing "magic" about European or any other Jews, giving them special land and warfare rights and privileges and definitions based on different rules than people associated with any other religion.
There are plenty of Ashkenazi Jews who would agree with what I wrote above, and some who would agree about the genetic parts, but still, driven by "never again" extremism, assume special rights for Jews.

That's how a group becomes distinct. Through endogamy. And Karaites match that description very well, just like the Druze, Mandeans, etc.

A lot of misinformation in this video. The rabbinate doesn't consider Samaritans to be Jews. Sephardic Jews are Jews who follow the Sephardic variety of Judaism, not necessarily the ones who descend from Spain. Mizrahi Jews are not a thing, that's just a colloquial term for any Jews descending from Muslim countries
samaritans are jews now cry
Inside the Ashkenazi there are sparadic jews. Because it found the the Ashkenazi jews created from two group that was different genetic, one group we called her the eastern group that found in this group a lot of sparadic jews. The other group we called the western group was without any genes from the middle East. The two group mixed in the ratio of 60% from the eastern group and 40% from the western group. Both two group have genes from italy. From the mix of the two group the Ashkenazi jews was created that was in germany in the city of arford in the 14th century. After the mix the Ashkenazi jews are between 15% to 45% from the middle East. Between 45% to 70% from italy mainly southern Italy. And something like 15%from germany. If the Ashkenazi jews compare to people from southern Italy than the middle East part is only 15% But if the Ashkenazi jews compare to people from northern italy that the middle East part growing to 45%. That means that the Ashkenazi jews are the most close genetic to the people that lived today in southern Italy.
Mizrahi Jews used to live for many generations eastern to Israel, that's why they're called Mizrahim.
@@mikireu1 Moroccans are also considered Mizrahi. They used to live to the West of Israel
Not true. Jews who left Israel but stayed in the middle east were called "Mizrahim" (Easterners) When the Jews in Spain (Sephardim) left for N. Africa & the middle east these 2 groups merged. Since the Sephardim overwhelmed the Mizrahim in both population & Jewish knowledge & learning the Mizrahim were absorbed by the Sephardim. But they are 2 different groups with different histories.
Wait, Samaritans have higher amounts of Canaanite DNA, and some Mizrahi Jews also have big amounts of Amorite/Canaanite DNA. There is a difference between Israelite and Canaanite/Levantine DNA. Israelites have an Aramaic genetic component. Jacob/Israel was calling himself an Aramean. So it's obvious that ancient Israelites had an Aramaic DNA but also a Canaanite Genitic Component. Spanish Jews and Ashkenazi Jews have higher Canaanite Hittite Amounts. The Hittites are a Hamitic tribe with a Semitic admixture, and also an smaller white/european admixture, close to Greeks and especially Greek Cypriots and Sicilians and also to southern Italians in general.The Hittites are called an European Nation, close to modern day southern Europeans and Northwestern middle easterners. The so called southern European DNA amongst Ashkenazi Jews and Spanish Jews, is mostly of Ancient Hittite Origin, and Hittites were Native to Canaan, Israel, the ancient Levant and to Anatolia „the Armenian Highlands“ according the Bible, Judah had 2 wife's, his first wife was of a Hittite Origin, that's why Judahs sons Er, Onan Selah were half-Hittites. The Hittites were also Natives of many Jewish Cities, like Jerusalem, Bethlehem, and Hebron and they converted in very high amounts to Judaism and DNA is proving this. Amorites with lower or no European DNA amounts were much more common in the area of Arad ancient Judah. One thing is very clear, the biblical Canaanites with European DNA are the Hittites, but the amount of European DNA is still very low amongst Southern Europeans and Hittites Canaanites which makes them genetically similar. This is proving that modern day European Jews like Ashkenazim and Sephardim trace their heritage mostly to Judahs Hittite Cities like Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Hebron, and the Hittite areas of Ancient Judah. Many Mizrahi Jews trace their heritage to Amorite areas of Judah. All this genetic information is proving that modern European Jews like Ashkenazim and Sephardim trace their heritage mostly to Judahs Hittite Cities like Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Hebron, and the Hittites areas of Ancient Judah. The final conclusion is, that Ashkenazi Jews and Sephardi Jews are related to the Levant, and the so called „southern European“ part in some of the Ashkenazim and Sephardim is mostly of Hittite Canaanite origin.

You can’t determine a person’s ancestry just based on skin color. That’s a very superficial and simplistic way of approaching genetics. For example, sub Saharan Africans and Australian/Polynesian aboriginals may look similar but these populations diverged over 40000 years ago! Linguistically and genetically aboriginals are more similar to southeast Asians than Africans. And west Africans are more related to light skinned North Africans than aboriginals. The Jewish groups you mentioned all still share a common ancestry originating from the Levant. Just because they look different doesn’t change that. You are confusing genotype with phenotype.

Maybe my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather was the Emperor of China. But it doesn't make me Chinese if subsequent generations married non-Chinese. What skin color do Germans have? You are not German if you are black, but your great-great-great-great-grandfather was German.
@DinoBryce In biblical times, paternal lineage was considered decisive for Jewish descent. From the 2nd century onward, with the compilation of the Mishnah, maternal lineage became the determining factor. According to Halacha (Jewish law), you are considered 100% non-Jewish if only your father is Jewish, but your mother is not. However, if a non-Jewish woman converts to Judaism before the birth of her child, the child is considered 'born Jewish.' Jewish descent is no longer a purely biological matter; the connections to the 12 tribes of Israel have been lost.

Why do you think there is a story of Jesus Christ attending a Jewish Wedding in Canaan? We're talking 20 miles or less, here! The most likely scenario is that the first Israelites were culturally rebellious Canaanites who moved to the hills west of the Jordan, started giving unique status to Yahweh and his wife Ashera, with their priests getting monotheistic long before the general public, but eventually, all Israelites became monotheistic. Over time, Polytheistic Canaanites also became Yahweh-worshipping monotheists, and the gene pools recombined. So, in this highly-likely scenario, there is no current difference between Canaanite and Israelite ancestry, because they mixed back together, long, long ago.
Syria lebanon Egypt all have genes for the Levant that no mean only israelite they mixed from all the nation that lived in the region during the Bible. The israelite is only one group for what called the Levant in the Bible time was many nation that close to each other. Also the Muslim syrian have 30% genes from Saudi arabia. I think the Palestinian have even more than 40% from Saudi arabia because the Palestinian are very diverse because they came from many countries to palestina lot of palestinian came to palestina from syria lebanon and Egypt, but there also palestinian that originally from saudi arabia yemen are even from Libya. So that they from the Levant don't tell that they from Israel, some of them from Israel mainly in southern mountain of Hebron. But most came from syria lebanon Egypt
More than 30% from Saudi arabia.
You didn't define "israelite DNA", how do you determine what is an "israelite DNA"?
Bronze Age samples from Canaan
This study for sure is not talking into account the R1b samples from Egyptian sarcophagus that are linked to iksos (Israelites)
@@seanvandiijk2889There is no evidence supporting Hyksos being the same as Israelites, though it has been suggested as possible. It’s safer to look for Levantine ancestry, particularly from the Bronze and Iron Age in current-day Israel. Those who lived there, with the exception of the philistines, were mostly Israelites.
@oronjoffe Simcha Jacobovici just destroyed all those "expert archaeologists" that practice mental gymnastics in order to deny the hiksos being our ancestors. People today see the world and the Jews and the first image they have is those ultra Orthodox of ghettos during nazi Germany period, they imagine the bible being a story of people all similar to such holy group of Jews. The reality is across history Israel was a very rebellious nation practicing the worst crimes under the sun, the jews of today represent only one tribe, in the time of egypt and even after king Saul, Israelites were sinning on the daily basis, with idol worship everywhere and even child sacrifice, Israel reached the 49th level of impurity when they got out of egypt, so no we as nation were not as rabnis from bnei Brak, the difference is Israel wanted to repent every day.

Hebrew and Jewish are the same thing. Stop it with your ridiculous BHI nonsense.
@SunM00nandStars-dz2xb 🤣🤣🤣
It depends on what you define as the group that is the source of the Jewish DNA. According to them, Ethiopian Jews have never assimilated and are the Jewish origin, therefore it is impossible to state it that way
No, because you can compare it to other groups known to have common ancestors as the Jews. Ethiopian Jews have significantly less semetic dna, but that also makes sense considering they diverged from the rest of the nation earlier on. That still doesn’t make them any less Jewish.
Also if every other Jewish group is very closely related to eachother and Ethiopian Jews are the only genetic outliers, how exactly could you use their genetic makeup as the original? Like it makes no sense genetics aren’t a relative issue
It's quite "easy" to classify, there are many skeletons with DNA left of ancient Israelites in the levant..
It doesn't matter. I am Jewish. I claim Ethiopian Jews as ours. Their God is ours and we all belong to him. Besides we all come from Adam! What's the big deal?
What DNA was used as the 'original' Israelites for reference?
Various Bronze Age period samples from Canaan
This whole discussion about genetic distance is a sham because it has been established that every jewish group except beta israel/ethiopian jews have ydna that is levantine haplogroup.
Using a genetic distance or autosomal dna is not accurate as the dilution is obvious within 200 years. The samaritan for example has been taking a wife from ukraine, russia and other slavic nations since the last 2 decades thus their genetic distance from the so called “ ancient israelites” will deviate more despite they maintain intermarriage between their own people just like every jewish ethnicity
@@gamalnassertvAlso the haplogroups of J2, T, G2a, and E M85 and E M123 I believe.
the samaritans are true levantines thats why they share the most dna with ancients of the area but majority of jewish groups are converts thats why they dont share as much dna but they share dna with their neigbours from other religions cause in the past people could convert just like other religions but isreal in the past was a tribe the true isrealites are the beta isreal of ethiopia or the yemenite jews the beta isreal share the most customs with the biblical isrealites they probably migrated out of egypt during exodus with the ark into ethiopia

What about the Kaifeng Jews from China?
They are converts of Chinese origin. About 100 years ago a Rabbi went there and converted some people and ran a small Synagogue for a while then he left. He never married a Chinese woman I think he was married already to a Jewish woman and had children there actually. The left eventually. China treats them as a cult. They are not an ethnic group. But Israel let a few women convert officially to orthodox Judiasm and let them make Aliyah to Israel. But Israel officially sees these people as a convert group. But they are given the same rights as all other Jews.
you mean the kaifeng jebrejos? she really has to say that the Chinese don't like jebrejos; the whole of Buddhist Shinto Hindu Asia doesn't like jebrejos.
Whether someone is Israel or not is tested by one and only one marker: How they respond to the Hebrew language. If one's "DNA" is Hebrew, they read Hebrew entirely differently than do outsiders who try to understand Torah and can't get past the gatekeepers.
This is bs😂😂 u saying we Ethiopian Jews don’t have Israelite dna? We are from the tribe of Judah and Levi check ur facts

At a finer linguistic level, the *AA Cushistic-speaking Agaw and Qimant are most genetically similar to sampled AA Semitic-speakers* , with the Qimant and *AA Semitic-speaking Beta Israel* having been reported previously to be related linguistically to the Agaw71.

Jews then have more of the right to the region since Palestinians want to be arab.
First of all you can't say any of the group carry any "ancient" Israelite dna without testing ancient Israelite remains
That's the thing... ancient israeli DNA has already been tested.
Ancient Jewish DNA findings have been discovered in several key archaeological sites in the Middle East, primarily in Israel and its surroundings. Here are some major findings:
The Skull Cave at Masada - At Masada, remains attributed to the Jewish population from the time of the Great Revolt against the Romans were found. DNA tests on bones from the site helped understand the origins of the population and the health conditions of the rebels.
Burial Sites in Jerusalem - In Jerusalem, burial sites from various periods, including the Second Temple period, were found. These findings provide insights into the ethnic and genetic background of the Jewish residents of the city and the surrounding area at that time.
Galilee and Beit She’arim - In sites in the Galilee region, which became a hub of Jewish activity after the Second Temple's destruction, human remains with DNA help trace the connection between ancient and modern populations.
The Cave of Letters near the Dead Sea - In this cave, remains from the time of the Bar Kokhba revolt were found, including genetic findings that shed light on the origin of the fighters and the community of the revolt.
These studies are conducted using advanced technologies, enabling comparisons between ancient and modern DNA, providing insights into the genetic and historical connections of the Jewish people across different periods.
@amosziss2739
No ANCIENT Israelite DNA has been tested, this means none of the 12 sons of Israel nor their children or grandchildren have been found and tested.
Now some remains from Israel have been tested but no writing was found in the burial site to identify them

What’s their y dna haplogroup
Israelites were Canaanites
But Samaritans aren't Jews...they don't follow the entire tanakh but only the Torah.
Not only that, but also no oral Torah
The Samaritans are a unique ethnic and religious group originating from the Samaria region, whose beliefs are based on the written Torah but differ slightly from traditional Judaism. Samaritans consider themselves direct descendants of the northern tribes of Israel, mainly the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, and claim to preserve the original traditions of the people of Israel as they were before the destruction of the Kingdom of Israel and the Babylonian exile.
In traditional Judaism, there is debate regarding whether Samaritans are considered Jewish, making it a complex question. Many view the Samaritans as a group that is close to but distinct from the Jewish people, primarily because their beliefs and practices differ and they did not adopt the later traditions that developed after the First Temple's destruction. In fact, during the Second Temple period, there were tensions and complicated relations between Jews and Samaritans, which led to cultural and religious separation between them.
Today, Samaritans mainly live in the Mount Gerizim area and in Holon, and they are considered a unique and ancient community with their own heritage.
@@realSneakyB Exactly. That's even mentioned on their website:
They aren't Jews, and instead there is a debate about them.
Only according to Israeli law they are considered Jews, but not according to Jewish law.
So, they shouldn't be mentioned here on this video.
Instead it could be nicer to see Jews that actually have lived on the land for generations, even when the majority of Jews were exiled.
Their theology and practice are somewhat different , but genetically they are either descendents of the Israelites, as they maintain, or foreigners who were brought in by the Assyrians, as described in the book of Kings.

Hey! What about the Jews from the Ottoman Empire?? You skipped them completely.
Today's Turkey, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia. (Northern Macedonia? Albania? )
Would they all be direct descendants of the Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jewish branches? Or were there some autochthonous ones in today's Turkey prior to the Ottoman invasion from Mongolia?
They're sephardie
@momolevy and a good number of Ashkenazi, too. I personally know some Kramer and a Rot from Serbia and some Weiss from Hungary and Serbia, and a Czernitz (which is Schwartz) from Slovenia and Croatia.
Then again, I also met some with Sefardi last names like Cabillo , Salom, Demayo, Abramowich, Davidovich, all from my native Belgrade, Serbia.
The most intriguing is Bilbija (Bilbiya) which seems Turkish to me.
@miovicdina7706 one of two of the countries that u mentioned are for the most part fully ashkenazi but besides for that very cool
They are Sephardi. After the expulsion from Spain, Jews migrated to the Ottoman Empire where they were welcomed. The communities you mentioned were all part of that migration. Of course, there will also be some other Jews there (probably Ashkenazi) but the earliest stratum are pure Sephardi.
@@oronjoffe Quite a few Muslims in the former Ottoman empire, who assumed that their families were Muslim since the 7th century, actually test with significant amounts of European Jewish ancestry. So, the Sephardic immigrants became part of the Muslim population, too.
0:53 "Semitic speaking..." they moved from Africa to Levant and back to Africa (says various papers). There's definitely a very strong connection. They are Jews.❤
I'm still waiting for the part of the video which links a particular group to the DNA or haplogroup of Yakov or even Yehudah himself.... All I see is "this group matches a group of people who have claimed to be the true untouched bloodline." Anyway it's partially bloodline and partially the soul.

Hebrew is a Semitic language, from the Afro-Asiatic language family, known as the language of the Jews and the Samaritans. It belongs to the Canaanite language family and is the only Canaanite language spoken today
This is very biased advertising for these DNA testing companies, whoever did this article is making several presumptions. First you must start from a original sample of somebody who has a tradition of not having intermarried since before the common era and although is it true samaritans from Mt. Gerizim have ancestry, Yemenite Jews are one of the most accurate samples after the master sample, Yemenites have near 70% of haplogroup yDNA J1 also known as the "jewish haplogroup" and sephardic Ashkenazic jews have huge percentage of that also.
Now the strongest DNA of ancient Israel is in plain sight hidden, Western Europe Haplo R1b, has been found in mummies that should belong to Yoseph himself. Disclaimer, despite someone being biologically Israelite that doesn't make him jewish, Jewishness goes by maternal lineages i assume mother to daughter, not to son but I'm not an expert. Both lineages must be preserved for someone to be considered both jewish and Israelite.
J1 is not the Jewish haplogroup, it’s more the Arab haplogroup than anything. But 20% of Ashkenazis and sephardics have it - including me. it’s found all across Levant and middle east but highest in Arabia
@@PodcastCentral333
J1 is the common Semitic paternal haplogroup and it’s more probable that the Paternal Genes of Ancient Israel carry that particular haplogroup
@@EM-tx3ly nope, ancient israelites had a diverse range of haplogroups, as do modern lebanese christians and samaritans who are the closest to ancient jews due to not-mixing, J1 is just one of these haplogroups, typically found around 20% in ancient and modern jews, and 70% in arabs from the arabian peninsular. its a semitic, very arab haplogroup that non-arabs have at loweer percentages.
@@PodcastCentral333 arabs have that haplogroup because many of them are actually from the lost seed of Israel.

No new informations to me It was known in the genetic circles since over 15 years. That Samaritans resemble ancient Israelites the most. Followed at 2nd place by Mizrahi Jews of Kurdish, Aramaic, Iranian or Caucasus origin. Followed at 3rd place by Sephardic, Yemenite and Ashkenazi Jews.

@@gamalnassertvand frankly I won’t take the word from someone named “gamalnassertv” to be the truth because it’s clear you have a natural bias
You need to consider the genetics of the ancient Israelites which is about 50% shared with Anatolian farmer ( Canaanites people) , since Europeans are sharing a large DNA lineage with Anatolian farmers as well that the reason Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews (who are more Sothern Europeans have a lineage to Levantine people because Southern Europeans sharing large of their ancestry with Levantine ( Canaanites people) as well. The question how these group link to Canaanites cluster which is a mix of (Anatolian farmer, Caucasians-Zagros mountains people and the indigenous people of the Levant the Natufian people). I believe that most of Ashkenazi Jews lineage to Canaanites very similar to any southern Europeans.
“Jewish DNA” was created to fit political aims. Like grouping people according to their ancient “Roman DNA or ” Viking DNA” .
Proof?
I'm not Jewish.
Judaism does not require Jewish DNA
The reason is simple. The 12 tribes do not always share equal dna. The Ethiopian tribe of Dan, "Beta Israel", was cut off from Israel for 2600 years. He did not mix with the other tribes and therefore you will not find Jewish DNA in him
Asian Jewry is also divided into tribes, but there is more intermingling between them because they kept in touch with each other on some level
But Ashkenazi Jewry and Sephardic Jewry have mixed in such a way that it is impossible to know which tribes are mixed in them and therefore they are the Jewish mainstream and they are determined by the dominant tribe that makes them up, the Ehuda tribe. and according to them the Jewish dna was determined
I’m of Irish/Afro-Caribbean descent and have been considered Maltese,Moroccan,Brazilian,Egyptian and Israeli on my travels…yet l am 100% none of them as my DNA test shows…got to laugh.

Lol this proves nothing genetic results show that askhenazi are mostly of european origin Look there is no ''jewish ethnıcity'' %80 of the jews look ''alike'' because they are of askhenazi ethnicity, askhenazis are just one of the ethnicities that practice judaism just as as there are different ethnicities that practice islam such as persians, arabs, turks etc there are different ethnicities that practice judaism such as askhenazi,sephardi,haymonot,krymchak these ethnic groups are not related to eachother at all they just share a common religion a askhenazi jew is not the same ethnicity with a sephardi or a kaifeng jew or mizrahi jew all they share in common is the religion
Ashkenazi 50% Levantine don’t cry 😭
The list goes (rounded for simpicity and * meaning estimate):
Ashkenazi: 35%
Sephardi (Iberian and Morrocan): 45%*
Palestinian Muslim: 50%
Mizrahi (Kurdish): 55%*
Lebanese Muslim: 60%*
Palestinian Muslim: 70%*
Lebanese Christian: 75%*
Sumaritan: 80%
Levantine ancestry respectively.
Example is that Palestinian Muslims have a Canaanite to Israelite Ratio of 54:46 while Ashkenazi Jews have a same ratio but with the values of 48:52 according to a study by Nebel.
To say Ashkenazis and Sepharidics are not related is just stupid and no the link of Arabs, Turks and Indonesians in Islam is not the same as in Judaism. The closest Jewish group to Ashkenazis are Sepahridcs as has been shown by dna tests and other analysis on these diasporic populations which shows that the two groups branched of roughly a thousand years ago in the northern Italian Peninsula after a population of Jews migrated into the Iberian Peninsula and the rest went to the Rhineland, where the foundational Ashkenazi population was established and according to a Harvard study that was conducted in Erfurt, Germany, where medieval Ashkenazi Jewish remains were uncovered the early Ashkenazi populations were of mixed Levantine ancestry (mainly from the paternal line) with the maternal line being mainly of Italian, Greek, with some minor Levantine and Germanic-Slavic ancestry. However, the Germanic only made up roughly 20% of the maternal genetics if I remember correctly which is hardly anything especially considering it is just coming from a m marker. In fact, look at photos of Arabs and Jews n the early 1800 and 1900s. Especially when wearing European clothing, many Arabs from the Levant looked like Ashkenazi Jews and in come cases Italians and this goes on even to day as I was tested by ancestry to be 32% Ashkenazi Jewish, and the site even said that "our Jewish ethnicity defined a our other regions. The historic dispersal of the Jewish population from its origin in the Levant on the east coast of the Mediterranean resulted in communities scattered throughout Europe, North Africa, Central Asia, and the Middle East." Also, my grandfather who is full blood Ashkenazi has been misidentified for being Lebanese, Italian, Greek, and Armenian several times. Also the reason many Ashkenazi Jews appear more white in modern days compared to just a century ago is after the Holocaust many took European spouses. Hope this helped.
thats ziotard lies askhenazis are .580 percent genetically european www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5380316/
and seferads are half spanish tell me apart from religion what makes sepherads and askhenazis the same ethnicity the genetics are different the languange (yiddish and ladino) is different
if these two peoples are the same ethnicity just because they share a religion then arabs and turks are also the same ethni

Samaritans are descendent of the Kutim, non Jews that converted at the beginning of the 2nd Temple Period. They mixed with Jews, but are mostly descendant from that tribe.
To compare each Jewish population to the genetic composition of Arabs and Lebanese is misleading. How does that show who is closer to the Israelite DNA???? The composition of the Middle Eastern peollples change a lot throughout history, moved by the Babylonians, and muced by the many Empires that ruled there. So the best way to find Jewish DNA is to look at the common DNA of all jews, not to compare Jews to non Jewish Middle Easterns.
samaritans are ethnic jews, higher than anyone else

Despite starting off a bit objectively, in regard to Indian, Ethiopian, and Arabian/Yemeni Jews being a bit distant from Israelites, and admitting how close Levantine Christians are (a good start), this video then implies through semantic innuendo that European Jews are about 1/2 Israelite, which is quite a stretch of the facts. Yes, there is Y-DNA running through up to half of the European Jewish male populations that may be from the middle east and present in the ancient Levant, but it is not specific to ancient Judean Jews, but only *could* be from there. Even if those Y-DNA haplotypes were from actual Israelites, which is a stretch, considering the wide ancient range of those haplotypes, most of what people *are*, genetically, comes from neither the maternal-line mitochondrial DNA for both sexes nor the Y-DNA for males only. There are 22 chromosomes in males and 23 chromosomes in females that are most of a person's genetic makeup, and most of that is not from Israelites.
It seems the video is using two different methods of analysis for European-Js and non-Euro Js. Non-Euro comments seem to be based on "genetic similarities and differences", and the Euro-J comments are based on "what could be" stretched to the extremes, and only considering ONE ancestor of males (their father's father's father's father, etc.), back when they had hundreds or thousands of ancestors!
Yes, Y-DNA lines tell you a lot about one thin line of your ancestry, but only a small fraction of your entire genetic identity.
If you watched the video, you would see they referenced Xue et al 2017, which does not look at Y-DNA, only auDNA.

@PodcastCentral333 the samaritans were exiled by the asyrians from their native land in modrn day iraq, from the city of kuta and its surroundings, thet converted to Judaism and mixed with the local israelites. This still means they have lived in is israel continuously for more than 2500 hundred years
Those studies are meaningless for 2 main reasons
1. Having genetics homogenous society was never a premise in Israelite or Jewish society.
2. The introduction of Israelite genes to the population that hosted the Jews is not accounted for while evaluating genetic proximity.

Literally no evidence to this..
Moreover Israelites culture is preserved by jews..
nope, just share some dna due to geography and history
i would expect jews not to make those genes distinctions. especialy in better then others and pureness connotentions. we all know too well what is can bring
Milkowsky and the polish and russian occupiers probably have in the minus percentage
Ashkenazis in Poland and Russia have more Italian and Israelite DNA than anything Slavic.
Lmfao!
What you don't understand from the video?
They have 50%
I know, he's very biased. Really disappointed in this video.

Samaritans live in Israel. Even those in Samaria live in a village under the IDF protection since the first intifada.
And some are under Palestine West Bank …
@avaderavrahamsa6725
I said already in my comment - those in Samaria live in Kiryat Luza, a small village near Shechem, under the IDF protection.
John Hopkins DNA study from 2022 conform that 80% of the Palestinians have a Hebrew DNA and are very Semitic people, while more than 90% of Jews are khazarian Jews from now (Ukraine). They were pagans who converted to Judaism in the 8th century. Nothing about them are biblical.
Except that's not true😂😂 Arab Palestianians are Semetic people just like the Jews so obviously they carry mostly Semetic dna. Arabs and Jews have the same Semetic ancestors. They (Palestianians) dont have majority Hebrew dna. Very little if at all actually. Semetic, not Hebrew.
Now, the thing about Jews being Khazarian has been debunked countless times so I wont give it more attention than it needs. Literally ZERO studies proved Jews being Khazarian.
There is no "Khazarian" connection. You've made that up.
Palestinians are native Levantines, but that theory of Khazarian is rubbish
@@gamalnassertvmost Palestinians are descendants of invaders
90% is a bold ridiculous statement, let along factual. The Khazarian theory never was confirmed, nor does it respected among scholars for its ridiculous claims, as actual genetic components hold little to absolutely none genetic link to Turkic DNA. It is a theory that was pushed hardly by anti-Semites though to delegitimize the Jewish culture, particulary as opposition for the Israeli statements about being in their ancestral homeland. Moreover, Judaism is more than a religion, it is a common racial genetics among a diverse diasporas of people from all across the world who share connection to the Levant, just for your general knowledge.

W, I love Yemen and also find Jewish history pretty cool. Glad to see some of you have the consciounce to look past tribalism and stand against injustice.
As a Libyan (alongside Yemen we had one of the oldest Jewish diasporas in the world) I am sad colonialism and sectarianism destroyed the Arab worlds' ancient and unique Jewish communities, our countries are certainly culturally poorer without them.

"Jews" itself is an "intersectionality"
European Jews are just converts from Southern Italy, in fact, Southern Italians have the same amount of "Levant" as European Jews which you forgot to mention that. There are zero historical sources of Israelites leaving or being expelled from the Romans. But there are records of a mass convert of Italians into Judaism. Mizrahi Jews have no Levantine ancestry at all, they do not even cluster with Levantines, an Iranian Jew will cluster with other Iranians, not with Levantines. A Moroccan Jew will cluster with other Moroccans, not with Levantines, which you fail to show that. You are spreading lots of misinformation on your videos with no backup sources.
1) Yes, Southern Italians do have significant Levantine ancestry. Now, how and when do you think this ancestry appeared in this region?
2) There are multiple sources about Jewish immigration to Italy during the Roman era.
3) Iranian Jews do have significant Levantine ancestry. And no, they don't cluster with Persians, see 5:18. Same for Moroccan Jews who cluster with other Maghrebi Jews and quite close to European Sephardim.
4) All the sources are available in the description. I showed multiple PCAs taken from Kopelman et al. 2020.
Ironically, it's you who are spreading misinformation.
Sephardim European Jews have more Levantine DNA than southern Italians.
Ashkenazi score roughly the same as Sicilians on Neolithic calculators, because of extra Germanic and Slavic admixture which Sephardim don't have.
However Ashkenazim and Sicilians have vastly different backgrounds from an Iron Age perspective.
As for Mizrahi Jews:
Iraqi Jews are mostly Babylonian converts, but there's a Levantine shift compared to Assyrians and Mandeans.
Iranian Jews are basically the Iraqi Jewish diaspora. They are vastly different from Iranian Muslims.
Same goes for Georgian, Mountain and Bukharan Jews. It's the Babylonian Jewish diaspora, with slight admixture from locals.
Egyptian Karaites are mostly indigineous Levantines, with slight Egyptian and Sephardi admixture.
Syrian and Lebanese Jews are mostly Levantine, with noticable Sephardi admixture.
North African Jews cluster nowhere near North African Muslims.
Moroccan Jews are of mostly Sephardi descent and only a small Berber admixture.
Libyan Jews are similar, but with a shift toward Egyptian Karaite Jews.
There are 0 records of italian "mass comversion to Judaism", you just pulled that out of your as, just like in other places you lie saying theyre khazars or Polish mass comverts
Damn bro you got cooked
lol

Beta Israel are Jews.
Actually even if Ashkenazi Jews share some small amount of Israelite Levantine ancestry, it’s still not as much as that which is found among Palestinians I guarantee you!
Nonsense.
@@beng2729 its the truth.
Genetic studies was done of Palestinians. Most of their genetics is similar to Saudis and Emirates because they all originally came from the Arab peninsula.
@@hpys That is not true. The most recent studies show that the majority of Palestinian DNA comes from the region for the past 4,000 years. The Arabisation process 1,000+ years ago throughout the modern Arab world involved a relatively small movement of people along with a large degree of cultural and linguistic transfer.
AshkJs are half Levant and half European, Palestinians are mostly Levants
the samaritans are true levantines thats why they share the most dna with ancients of the area but majority of jewish groups are converts thats why they dont share as much dna but they share dna with their neigbours from other religions cause in the past people could convert just like other religions but isreal in the past was a tribe the true isrealites are the beta isreal of ethiopia or the yemenite jews the beta isreal share the most customs with the biblical isrealites they probably migrated out of egypt during exodus with the ark into ethiopia
god most hated ppl
The Samaritans are the result of the admixture of Israelites and the populations brought here by the Assyrians.
