Just a heads up - unbeknownst to me, UA-cam unsubscribed me from your channel sometime since your last lesson. Thought you should know. Love you and your channel! Thank you so much Dr. Abramson! Hashem should bless you and yours.
Very useful. I have long wondered how and why the diaspora ended up in inhospitable frozen climates like Russia, Poland, etc. what could possibly attract them there???
What did the exiles do for a living? The people of the countries where they took refuge had their own lands ie. Lithuanians, French, German, Egyptians, etc and would have been farming their lands - this is the period before the industrial revolution. The Jews had nothing when they landed in these foreign countries. It would be interesting to know how they got along, maybe if you could give a talk on this subject. I have guessed for some time that eg. the Jewish community in Umayed Spain would have have been merchants and traders exporting Moroccan cotton cloth (a valuable commodity back then) to colder northern Europe, France, Holland and England etc. The lace making industry in Belgium, I think was started by the Jews or they improved on it. The communities of Yemen, Afghanistan and the Silk Road cities again I am guessing were mostly traders and probably into money services like issuing cheques - as merchants could not carry gold and silver coins with them because of the danger of robbers along the trade routes. Thank you sir.
Gods has brought back the Jews only which is the old kingdom of Judah which was made up of three tribes; Judah , Benjamin and Levi. This 3 tribes are the Jews. The northern kingdom of Israel ( the ten tribes) have not returned and an a very important fact is that they are not Jews. They are never called jews in the Bible. Also one main reason this ten tribes of Israel have not returned to ancient Israel ( Palestine) is because they are independent nations today in the midst of the world. A jew no doubt is an Israelite but the majority of Israelites are not Jews.
@@eugenegarcia9415 personally I believe the other Israeli tribes are gone. They will not be back till the new/next world. The Jews are the remnant that is left.
@@AvramMoreh Jews not allowed to make images of People.s per Halakah Laws Shulchan Hanorach .. Greeks Hellenists made that mosaic. We are NOT a skin color race DNA . Zipporah and Yithro were not from Europe..
The number 1 reason why Jews ended up everywhere is because Judaism is a meaningful and compelling way of life. This made it worth it to continue to be Jewish in the face of periids of tremendous discrimination and isolation over 4,000 years. Happy New Year from a Jew in Uganda 🇺🇬 ♥️🙏🏽🇮🇱✡️
The video is only a partial overview. Ethiopia was just touched on at the end. More mention of sub Saharan Africa is needed. There was no mention of Jews in India and China. Also, while the Khazars conversion in the Asian steppes is controversial, it should have been mentioned.
I wonder about the intent of your comment:" It's an exciting time to be Jewish". Do you refer to what I know of as a Chinese curse "may you live in interesting times"? or is it purely intellectual? "much to learn?"
We need a lecture on Jewish history throughout the Islamic history. Please and thank you.
Always a joy to listen to your easy-to-understand video's Dr Abramson. Take care.
I enjoy learning from your videos, Dr. Abramson.
Good idea. I get a teacher in my old age. 🙄But I m not getting to the point like you Dr. Abrams. All the best!

Doubt it. UA-cam pushes his content because he believes in the talmud. Guy is heretical.

This is fantastic, but you missed referencing the Bene Israelis who migrated to coastal Maharashtra in India
See my video on the Jews of India pls

Is Dr. Abrams a rabbi?
No, he is a scholar. My mistake sorry.@@AvramMoreh
professor, did you ever hear of Jewish settlements in France going back to the time of the Judges?
Very useful
God, The Babylonians, The Romans, after that I lose track.
I know God brought them back.

I just heard an interesting fact from R. Dr. David Katz; the Jewish world population quintupled from 1830 to 1930.
Thank you expla8ning Jew8sh migration history. Very informative. 🙏
תודה רבה שלום 👍
Amusing how Church fathers and artists had all people of their bible painted as " white Europeans"..
Also amusing how ancient Judaean synagogue leaders had mosaic artists depict the kohanim as whiter than Alexander the Great.
@@AvramMoreh Jews not allowed to make images of People.s per Halakah Laws Shulchan Hanorach .. Greeks Hellenists made that mosaic.
We are NOT a skin color race DNA .
Zipporah and Yithro were not from Europe..
@@AvramMorehtheres actually a teaching that kohanim were redheads, who usually have exceptionally fair skin
interesting

No, the Khazar lie should not be mentioned. You just exposed yourself, hater.
@@arikohane2720 ; projection. Want to find hate? Look in the mirror.

Are the Assyrians from the Jews?
The descendants of the Assyrians is Germany.
Exactly why I came here. How did my ancestors end up in Poland. A long way from Israel.
