Jews Not Native

Jewish Ancestry is of Middle Eastern Origin. But, were a semitic people from Arabia, and/or east Africa prior to their migration into the mid east.

Terah or Térach (Hebrew: תֶּרַח / תָּרַח, Modern Téraḥ / Táraḥ Tiberian Téraḥ / Tāraḥ ; "Ibex, wild goat", or "Wanderer; loiterer") is a biblical figure in the Book of Genesis11:26–28, son of Nahor, son of Serug and father of the Patriarch Abraham, all descendants of Shem's son Arpachshad. Terah's father was Nahor, son of Serug, descendants of Shem.

It appears there is no link between the Caucus' and Jewish people other than interbreeding the genetics from the Caucasian people the Jews encountered in Europe, and other Native European tribes, and other tribes in the areas they wound up in. This article claims a middle east origin for the jews.

Thus although a middle east origin is the Hebrew claimed homeland the fact they disobeyed their God by bastardizing themselves with the peoples of the lands it is difficult to believe a pure Jew exists. At most a jew is probably more of foreign blood than he is of his own blood. Thus, what shall he inherit from the promises of his God? A Jew it appears is a disobedient bastard according to his own holy laws.

A Jew represents the tribe of Judah. Which was only one tribe of the twelve tribes of Israel formed after the Exodus from Egyptian slavery of the Hebrew people as claimed by their certain religious texts. Other writings claim they were kicked out of Egypt for religious differences, and others claim they were a rebellious troublemakers.

The Babylonians then enslaved the tribes of Judah, and Benjamin. During this enslavement were they first called Jews.

I also question their Babylonian slavery as the semites basically took over Babylon after the Kassite rule.

Jew is also referred to as a religion. A person can become a Jew by religion but, not have any Hebrew blood at all.

God gave the Law to all the Hebrews consisting of 12 Tribes not only to Judah. So the original religion is not Jewish, it is Hebrew.

Jew as religion first came about when the jews returned to Jerusalem after Babylonian slavery. There in Babylon as slaves the jews being in absense of the original scriptures wrote the Talmud. This Talmudic Jew religion was in error of original Hebrew Law. Read Ezra, and Nehemiah in the Old Testament for the story on this error.

Genetic Studies on Jews

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_studies_on_Jews

For populations of the Jewish diaspora, the genetic composition of Ashkenazi, Sephardi, and Mizrahi Jewish populations show a predominant amount of shared Middle Eastern ancestry. According to Behar and colleagues (2010), this is "consistent with the historical formulation theories the Jewish people as descending from ancient Hebrew and Israelites of the Levant" and "the dispersion of the people of ancient Israel throughout the Old World".

Since the 1970s, many studies have attempted to determine whether common ancestors existed to the present Jewish communities or if the descendants are related instead to the non-Jewish populations where they lived.

In August 2012, Dr. Harry Ostrer in his book Legacy: A Genetic History of the Jewish People, summarized his and other work in genetics of the last 20 years, and concluded that all major Jewish groups share a common Middle Eastern origin. Ostrer also claimed to have refuted the Khazar theory of Ashkenazi ancestry. Citing autosomal DNA studies, Nicholas Wade estimates that "Ashkenazic and Sephardic Jews have roughly 30 percent European ancestry, with most of the rest from the Middle East."

In most Jewish populations, these male line ancestors appear to have been mainly Middle Eastern. For example, Ashkenazi Jews share more common paternal lineages with other Jewish and Middle Eastern groups than with non-Jewish populations in areas where Jews lived in Eastern Europe, Germany and the French Rhine Valley. This is consistent with Jewish traditions in placing most Jewish paternal origins in the region of the Middle East.

No particular similarity of Ashkenazi Jews with populations from the Caucasus is evident, particularly with the populations that most closely represent the Khazar region. In this view, analysis of Ashkenazi Jews together with a large sample from the region of the Khazar Khaganate would corroborate earlier results that Ashkenazi Jews derive their ancestry primarily from populations of the Middle East and Europe, that they possess considerable shared ancestry with other Jewish populations, and that there is no indication of a significant genetic contribution either from within or from north of the Caucasus region."

In 2016 Elhaik reviewed the literature searching for a ‘Jüdische Typus’ argues that there is no genomic hallmark for Jewishness. While he allows that in the future it is possible that a ‘Jewish’ marker may turn up, so far, in his view, Jewishness turns out to be socially defined (a socionome), determined by non-genetic factors.

Evidence for female founders has been observed in other Jewish populations. With the exception of Ethiopian and Indian Jews, it has been argued that all of the Jewish populations have mitochondrial genomes that were of Middle Eastern origin.

In a study of Israeli and Palestinian Muslim Arabs, more than 70% of the Jewish men and 82% of the Arab men whose DNA was studied, had inherited their Y chromosomes from the same paternal ancestors, who lived in the region within the last few thousand years. "Our recent study of high-resolution microsatellite haplotypes demonstrated that a substantial portion of Y chromosomes of Jews (70%) and of Palestinian Muslim Arabs (82%) belonged to the same chromosome pool."

Approximately 35% to 43% of Jewish men are in the paternal line known as haplogroup J and its sub-haplogroups. This Haplogroup is particularly present in the Middle East, Southern Europe, and Northern Africa. Fifteen to 30% are in haplogroup E1b1b (or E-M35) and its sub-haplogroups.

A study of haplotypes of the Y chromosome by Harry Ostrer and Michael Hammer, published in 2000, addressed the paternal origins of Ashkenazi Jews. Hammer et al.[38] concluded that the Y chromosome of most Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews contained mutations that are also common among Middle Eastern peoples, but uncommon in the general European population. This suggested that the male ancestors of the Ashkenazi Jews could be traced mostly to the Middle East.

Studies of mitochondrial DNA of Jewish populations are more recent and are still debatable. However, it seems that there are no maternal lines common to all Jewish people. Until 2006, geneticists attributed most often the origin of Jewish populations to male individuals who emigrated from the Middle East and took women as wives in the indigenous populations, who later converted to Judaism.

A study led by Harry Ostrer published on June 11, 2010, found close links between Ashkenazi, Sephardi, and Mizrahi Jews, and found them to be genetically distinct from non-Jews. In the study, DNA from the blood of 237 Jews and about 2,800 non-Jews was analyzed, and it was determined how closely related they were through IBD. Individuals within the Ashkenazi, Sephardi, and Mizrahi groups shared high levels of IDB, roughly equivalent to that of fourth or fifth cousins. All three groups shared many genetic features, suggesting a common origin dating back more than 2,000 years. The study did find that all three Jewish groups did show various signs of admixture with non Jews, with the genetic profiles of Ashkenazi Jews indicating between 30% and 60% admixture with Europeans, although they clustered more closely with Sephardi and Mizrahi Jews.

Jewish ancestry. Part of the story is that Eastern European Jews have significant Eastern Mediterranean elements which manifest themselves in close relationships with Kurdish, Armenian, Palestinian Arab, Lebanese, Syrian, and Anatolian Turkish peoples. This is why the Y-DNA haplogroups J and E, which are typical of the Middle East, are so common among them.

Studies of Jewish Populations Key findings:

  • The main ethnic element of Ashkenazim (German and Eastern European Jews), Sephardim (Spanish and Portuguese Jews), Mizrakhim (Middle Eastern Jews), Juhurim (Mountain Jews of the Caucasus), Italqim (Italian Jews), and most other modern Jewish populations of the world is Israelite. The Israelite haplotypes fall into Y-DNA haplogroups J and E. Palestinian Arabs are probably partly Israelite.

  • Ashkenazim also descend, in a smaller way, from European peoples from the northern Mediterranean region (including Italians and French) and even less from Slavs. We know most of the European ancestry came from women who married into the community since the Ashkenazic haplogroups of European origin are usually mtDNA rather than Y-DNA. Unexpectedly, most Ashkenazim have a tiny fraction of East Asian ancestry. Their typically East Asian mtDNA haplogroups include M33c1 and N9a3. The characteristically East Asian hair thickness allele 1540C for the EDAR gene is carried by about 1.7% of Ashkenazim.

  • Dutch Jews from the Netherlands also descend from northwestern Europeans.

  • Sephardim also descend, in a smaller way, from various non-Israelite peoples.

  • Georgian Jews (Gruzinim) are a mix of Georgians and Israelites.

  • Moroccan Jews, Algerian Jews, and Tunisian Jews are mainly Israelites.

  • Libyan Jews are mainly Israelites who may have mixed somewhat with Berbers.

  • Yemenite Jews (Temanim) are almost exclusively descended from Yemenite Arabs and are closely related to Saudi Arabs and Bedouins. They also have a small portion of East African maternal ancestry but lack the West African admixture that Yemenite Muslims have.

  • Ethiopian Jews are almost exclusively Ethiopian, with little or no Israelite ancestry.

  • Bene Israel Jews and Cochin Jews of India have much Indian ancestry in their mtDNA.

Genetic studies on Jews

The maternal lineages of Jewish populations, studied by looking at mitochondrial DNA, are generally more heterogeneous. Scholars such as Harry Ostrer and Raphael Falk believe this may indicate that many Jewish males found new mates from European and other communities in the places where they migrated in the diaspora after fleeing ancient Israel. Behar et al. in 2008 published evidence suggesting that about 40% of Ashkenazi Jews originate maternally from just four female founders of likely Near-Eastern origin while the populations of Sephardi and Mizrahi Jewish communities "showed no evidence for a narrow founder effect"....

The paternal gene pool of Jewish communities in Europe, North Africa and Middle East came from a common Middle East ancestral population. They suggested that most Jewish communities in the Diaspora remained relatively isolated and endogamous compared to non-Jewish neighbor populations. ...Approximately 35% to 43% of Jewish men are in the paternal line known as haplogroup J and its sub-haplogroups. This Haplogroup is particularly present in the Middle East, Southern Europe, and Northern Africa. Fifteen to 30% are in haplogroup E1b1b (or E-M35) and its sub-haplogroups....

A 2014 study by Fernandez et al. found that Ashkenazi Jews display a frequency of haplogroup K which suggests an ancient Near Eastern origin, stating that this observation clearly contradicts the results of the study led by Richards which suggested a predominantly European origin for the Ashkenazi community's maternal lines. However, the authors of the 2014 study also state that definitively answering the question of whether this group was of Jewish origin rather than the result of a Neolithic migration to Europe would require the genotyping of the complete mtDNA in ancient Near Eastern populations....

Analysis of mitochondrial DNA of the Jewish populations of North Africa (Morocco, Tunisia, Libya) was the subject of further detailed study in 2008 by Doron Behar et al.

Ancient Jewish DNA

THE LEVANT BELONGED TO THE CANAANITES BEFORE ABRAHAM STOLE IT AND GENOCIDED CANAAN. THEN THE HEBREWS STOLE IT AND GENOCIDED THE PEOPLE OF THE LAND AFTER THEY WERE KICKED OUT OF EGYPT. THEN THE JEWS STOLE IT AFTER THE BABYLONIANS KICKED THEM OUT OF BABYLON, OR RATHER IT WAS A CONSPIRACY BY THE SEMITES WHO HAD CONTROL OF BABYLON TO RETURN THE SEMITES BACK. THE SEMITES STOLE BABYLON FROM THE TURANIANS. THE ARABIC J HG FROM ARABIA BECAME THE DOMINANT PEOPLE IN THE LEVANT SINCE THE CANANITE GENOCIDE. AND THE E HG's BECOME THE MAJORITY RULE IN NORTH AFRICA. PRIOR TO THE NEOLITHIC IT WAS THE PALEOLITHIC BERBERS WHO WERE DOMINANT MAJORITY RULE OF ALL NORTH AFRICA. THE PALEO BERBER WAS NON AFRICAN AND WAS NOT NEITHER J NOR E HG.

THE JEWS HAVE COMMON ORIGINS IN MID EAST. DIASPORA JEWS ARE FROM THE LEVANT. ACCORDING TO THIS ARTICLE MOST DIASPORA JEWS FORM A DISTINGUISHING GENETIC PRINT WHICH OVERLIES DRUZE AND CYPRIOT LEVANTINIANS EVEN AMONG OTHER LENANTINIANS. ETHIOPIAN AND INDIAN JEWS DO NOT, DESPITE A CLEAR PATERNAL LINK TO LEVANTINE DIASPORA JEWS. ASHKENAZI JEWS ARE GENETICALLY DISTINGUISHABLE FROM NON JEWS OF EUROPEAN DESCENT CLEARLY SEPARATING THE JEW FROM THE NATIVE EUROPEAN. MOST DIASPORA JEWS PARTITION INTO ASHKENAZI-NORTH AFRICAN-SEPHARDI, CAUCASUS-MIDDLE EASTERN, AND YEMENITE. THIS LEVANTINE JEWISH DIASPORA PRINT CAN IMPLY SHARED GENETIC ANCESTRY, OR RECENT ADMIXTURE. MOST JEWS OTHER THAN THE ETHIOPIAN AND INDIAN JEWS OVERLIE NON-JEWS FROM LEVANT WHICH MEANS THE DIASPORA JEWS ARE A MIX OF OTHER NON JEW LEVANTINIANS. THE MALE DIASPORA JEW WAS THE BIGGER WHORE IN WEST INDIA IN CONTRAST TO THE ABSENSE OF SUBSAHARAN AFRICAN FEMALES WITH YEMIN AND MOROCCAN DIASPORA JEWS. OVERALL IT APPEARS THE JEWS BASTARDIZED THEMSELVES MUCH LESS WITH THE NIGGER PEOPLE COMPARED TO OTHER GROUPS IN THE SAME REGIONS (FIG.3). PROBABLY BECAUSE THEIR GOD COMMANDED THEM NOT TO ADULTERATE THEMSELVES NOR INTERMIX, AND ALL BASTARDS WILL BE CAST OUT AND NOT ALLOWED TO LIVE AMONG THEIR OWN PEOPLE....

The genome-wide structure of the Jewish people

https://www.academia.edu/3550542/The_genome-wide_structure_of_the_Jewish_people

Historical evidence suggests common origins in the Middle East, followed by migrations leading to the establishment of communities of Jews in Europe, Africa and Asia, in what is termed the Jewish Diaspora....Here we use high-density bead arrays to genotype individuals from 14 Jewish Diaspora communities and compare these patterns of genome-wide diversity with those from 69 Old World non-Jewish populations,... Principal component and structure-like analyses identify previously unrecognized genetic substructure within the Middle East. Most Jewish samples form a remarkably tight subcluster that overlies Druze and Cypriot samples but not samples from other Levantine populations or paired Diaspora host populations. In contrast, Ethiopian Jews (Beta Israel) and Indian Jews (Bene Israel and Cochini) cluster with neighbouring autochthonous populations in Ethiopia and western India, respectively, despite a clear paternal link between the Bene Israel and the Levant. These results cast light on the variegated genetic architecture of the Middle East, and trace the origins of most Jewish Diaspora communities to the Levant.... identified genome-wide patterns of variation that distinguished between Ashkenazi Jews and non-Jews of European descent. Similarly, a large-scale survey of autosomal microsatellites found that samples from four Jewish communities clustered close to each other and intermediate between non-Jewish Middle Eastern and European populations....

Focusing on the Middle Eastern populations in the PC1–PC2 plot reveals more geographically refined groupings. Populations of the Caucasus, flanked by Cypriots, form an almost uninterrupted rim that separates the bulk of Europeans from Middle Eastern populations. Bedouins, Jordanians, Palestinians and Saudi Arabians are located in close proximity to each other, which is consistent with a common origin in the Arabian Peninsula[MOST PROBABLY J HG AND POSSIBLY SOME E HG], whereas the Egyptian, Moroccan, Mozabite Berber, and Yemenite samples are located closer to sub-Saharan populations[NEOLITHIC AND RECENT. PRIOR THERE WERE NO E AND J HG's IN NORTH AFRICA.] ...

Most Jewish samples, other than those from Ethiopia and India, overlie non-Jewish samples from the Levant. The tight cluster comprising the Ashkenazi, Caucasus (Azerbaijani and Georgian), Middle Eastern (Iranian and Iraqi), north African (Moroccan) and Sephardi (Bulgarian and Turkish) Jewish communities, as well as Samaritans, strongly overlaps Israeli Druze and is centrally located on the principal component analysis (PCA) plot when compared with Middle Eastern, European Mediterranean, Anatolian and Caucasus non-Jewish populations. This Jewish cluster consists of samples from most Jewish communities studied here, which together cover more than 90% of the current world Jewish population; this is consistent with an ancestral Levantine contribution to much of contemporary Jewry. A compact cluster of Yemenite Jews, which is also located within an assemblage of Levantine samples, overlaps primarily with Bedouins but also with Saudi individuals. In contrast, Ethiopian and Indian Jews are located close to those from neighbouring host populations. Ethiopian Jews clustered with Semitic-speaking rather than Cushitic-speaking Ethiopians....

To glean further details of Levantine genetic structure, we repeated PCA on a restricted set of samples from west Eurasia... These analyses reveal three distinct Near Eastern Jewish subclusters: the first group is located between Middle Eastern and European populations and consists of Ashkenazi, Moroccan and Sephardi Jews. The second group, comprising the Middle Eastern and Caucasus Jewish communities, is positioned within the large conglomerate of non-Jewish populations of the region. The third group contains only a tight cluster of Yemenite Jews.... We note that membership of a sample in a component that is predominant in, but not restricted to, a specific geographic region is not sufficient to infer its genetic origins. Membership in several genetic components can imply either a shared genetic ancestry or a recent admixture of sampled individuals.

Y-chromosome data point to a unique paternal genetic link between the Bene Israel community and the Levant, whereas the absence of sub-Saharan African maternal lineages in Yemenite and Moroccan Jews (in contrast to their hosts) suggests limited maternal gene flow.... close relationship between most contemporary Jews and non-Jewish populations from the Levant.... This study further uncovers genetic structure that partitions most Jewish samples into Ashkenazi–north African–Sephardi, Caucasus–Middle Eastern, and Yemenite subclusters....


JEWS ARE A BASTARD PEOPLE FROM BABYLON WHO RETURNED BACKED TO JUDEA. THEY THEN MIGRATE INTO EUROPE BUYING AND SELLING EUROPEAN SLAVES. THEY ALSO MADE EUROPEAN WOMEN AS THEIR CONCUBINES. THE ASHKELON NAZI WAS A EUROPEAN FEMALE AND MID EASTERN MALE THAT BEGAN IN ERFURT, GERMANY JUST PRIOR TO THE 14TH CENTURY AD. THE MID EAST JEW HAD DISOBEYED GOD BY INTERRACIAL MARRIAGE WHICH BASTARDIZED THE ORIGINAL CHILDREN OF GOD OUT OF EXISTANCE. BUT, A TINY FRAGMENT OF GODS CHILDREN RETURNED TO GODS LAW TO PRESERVE HIS BLOODLINE USING MOSTLY NON-JEW FEMALES FROM EUROPE.

ALTHOUGH MANY OF THESE EUROPEAN FEMALES WERE OF NEOLITHIC STOCK ORIGINATING IN THE MID EAST WHICH HAD REPLACED THE PALEOLITHIC EUROPEAN FEMALES.

Ancient DNA from medieval Germany tells the origin story of Ashkenazi Jews

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2022/11/221130114511.htm

Digging into the ancient DNA of 33 Ashkenazi Jews from medieval Erfurt, the team discovered that the community can be categorized into what seems like two groups. One relates more to individuals from Middle Eastern populations and the other to European populations, possibly including migrants to Erfurt from the east. The findings suggest that there were at least two genetically distinct groups in medieval Erfurt. However, that variation in ancestral origins no longer exists in modern Ashkenazi Jews....

the founder event, which makes all Ashkenazi Jews today descendants of a small population, happened before the 14th century....through mitochondrial DNA...a third of the sampled Erfurt individuals share one specific sequence. The findings indicate that the early Ashkenazi Jewish population was so small that a third of Erfurt individuals descended from a single woman through their maternal lines....

"Jews in Europe were a religious minority that was socially segregated, and they experienced periodic persecution," says geneticist and co-corresponding author David Reich of Harvard University. Although antisemitic violence virtually wiped out Erfurt's Jewish community in 1349, Jews returned five years later and grew into one of the largest in Germany....
