    RC Christian it’s prophesy to be oppressed. But israel is more oppressed we were killed and oppressed right along with them all in fact we came to America so we could keep our bibles and not be burnt alive. In reality we’re more oppressed than them. It’s prophesy so God proves himself. The Jews oppressed us also were oppressed by the entire world including them.

    RC Christian Isaiah 66: 19 I will set a sign among them, and I will send some of those who survive to the nations-to Tarshish, to the Libyans and Lydians famous archers to Tubal and Greece, and to the distant islands that have not heard of my fame or seen my glory. They will proclaim my glory among the nations. 20 And they will bring all your people, from all the nations, to my holy mountain in Jerusalem as an offering to the Lord-on horses, in chariots and wagons, and on mules and camels,” says the Lord. “They will bring them, as the Israelites bring their grain offerings, to the temple of the Lord in ceremonially clean vessels. We sent Judah back to Israel we translated the Bible to the entire world,! This is the English. True English not the Queen of England who is Welsh/Roman and not English We survived Greece and the Romans, yes we did and ended up here with the Indians who were archers these people who never heard of God prior to us coming here that includes eskimos Alaska and Hawaii among others! How’s that for punctuation? Jews is a religion however they’re also one of Israel’s brothers the only brother that seems to count the English are Israel... see now? Or is there an illiterate problem where if one mistake was made you get all confused and dumb?

    Most Jewish people are taught that Jesus is only for Gentiles. This sentiment isn’t surprising. Growing up, a lot of Jewish people are taught that Jesus is only for Gentiles. Moreover, if a Jewish person decides to follow Jesus, the Jewish community considers them converts to Christianity. At one point in history, such people were considered apostates-lost to the Jewish community, or even to their own families. For a Jewish person to consider faith in Jesus, he or she must consider the social stigma they will face from friends, family, and the larger Jewish community. Would a rabbi ever agree to marry them? Would they ever be allowed to make aliyah? Would they be prohibited from joining a synagogue? These are the implications many Jewish people face when considering Jesus. Jewish followers of Jesus acknowledge the cultural obstacles and painful historical facts surrounding his identity, but there are still many reasons that drive them to believe that he is the Messiah. First and foremost, most people who come to follow Jesus, Jewish or not, have a personal encounter with God that changes their lives. As a result, Jewish people who have this experience can’t help but passionately embrace both their faith and their heritage. Until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or serif shall ever pass away from the Torah. Recognize that Jesus was born to Jewish parents, was raised in a Jewish home in Israel, observed the Torah, and taught the nation of Israel as a rabbi. His teachings were not an attack on Judaism, but rather an authoritative, intelligent interpretation of the Torah and a critique of a religious system that was corrupt during his day: “Do not think that I came to abolish the Torah or the Prophets! I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill … until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or serif shall ever pass away from the Torah … whoever keeps and teaches them, this one shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:17-19). Following Jesus's teachings is a continuation of the Jewish faith, not an abandonment of it.

    @alan dtarg Are you a Jew? I am not asking this rudely I am just wondering. I am a Jew but I am not really religious. What I believe is that and have been taught is that not all Jews are ethnically Jewish but lots of them are. You are correct in the way of saying a Jew is a follower of Judaism. But Judaism is an ethnoreligious group. I wouldn't say we are a nation though exactly not all Jews are Israelis, but that topic I am confused on. I descend from Jews from Russia but my family doesn't say we are Russian. If you ask my mom she will specifically tell you we aren't Russian we're Jewish. More specifically we are Jews of Ashkenazi descent. So our ethnicity is Ashkenazi and Ashkenazi people are Central and Eastern European Jews. Of course, that doesn't mean if you are Central and Eastern European and you convert to Judaism you are Ashkenazi. Also, not all ethnic Jews are Ashkenazi. Now, this is just what I believe. Jews don't even agree on this topic but most Jews I know can't explain it but they always say it's more than just a religion.

    Judaism is more of a Ethnicity and Religion combined, not a race and NOT ONLY a religion. It is hard for modern people to understand what the Jewish identity is, because all the other groups similar to it are no longer existing. You can compare the Jewish Identity to like what a ancient Egyptian or ancient Greek was. They were both a Ethnicity, Nationality, and Religion all combined in one. Today, Judaism is the only and last surviving identity in that way of recognition.✡️🕎🇮🇱

The rate of conversation to Judaism is really low, mostly because they make it so fucking hard to convert to and because they don’t go looking to convert people unlike other religions hence it being a ethno religion vs a universal religion like Christianity for example. So yeah ethnicity wise if you’re looking at the religion and not the race (two completely different things which most non Jews are completely ignorant on), then yeah there’s a small percentage that aren’t Jews....by farrrr the majority are though.

If Jews aren’t a racial group, how do we determine that there are stereotypical Jewish features, such as a Jewish nose? Sorry if I sound offensive, I’m confused.

Genetic make up is so vastly different all over the world and multiple races are so distinct which is why genetic ancestry can be broken down to the smallest percentiles. For example, Indians from the continent of Asia are Vastly different than the Chinese and are obviously their own race. Yet you would categorize them as “Yellow”? The Jewish race is very widely spread nowadays but the genetic make up is very distinct which is why it’s used on genetic make up tests.

    He has basically confirmed the question and made it stronger. The ultimate answer; God, and the Torah. As one of the great Jewish sages famously said: Ein Umoseinu Elo Hatorah which means: The only thing that constitutes Jewish nationality is the 'Torah', God chose the Jews as his people, the Torah is what connects Jews to each other and to God, in place of a regular nation's geographical/racial/cultural/lingual characteristics. The Kabbalah says: Oraysa Kudsha Brich Hu v'Yisrael chad which translates: The Torah, God, and Israel are one. As Ken explains there is clearly no other factor that one can honestly say is what makes Jews one nation. Jews (descendants of Jacob or of converts) who do not follow the Torah are Jews to the extent that according to Jewish Law they do not have to convert in order to practice the religion, also they are obliged to follow the Torah unlike Non-Jews, but in practice not much more than that.

    Jews are unquestionably a race, not a religious community. And the Jew himself never describes himself as a Jewish German or a Jewish American, but always as a German or American Jew.And no more than a German who is forced to use the French language in France, thereby becomes a Frenchman, no more can we call a Jew who happens to live amongst us and who is therefore forced to use english. And even the Mosaic faith, however great its importance for the preservation of that race, cannot be the sole criterion for deciding who is a Jew and who is not.

Since they don't have historical rights to be in this land (for instance a Jew from Norway or Poland or Lithuania has no historical connection with the land of ''Israel'') they claim that their state is legally justified. With the same way of thinking I can easily make a group of people from China, Italy, Russia, Germany, Pakistan etc and with an ideology connecting us claim that a certain land belongs to us.

Because He does not seem to be speaking honestly. If they are not a race then WHY do the majority of Jewish groups identify as a race but without admitting that fact? Further still WHY do the majority of Jewish groups flatly deny the "Jewish" legitimacy of the very few obvious NON Racist Jewish Groups? The reason is because the vast majority of Jews DO identify according to racist lines of thinking BUT they never admit that. The fact that this guy is STILL not admitting that is extremely annoying. People can SEE that you are not being fully honest in what you are saying here and it shows. So your solution.

To be a real Jew is anyone of any race colour who knowa and rejoices in the fact that God is The HOLY SPIRIT who thought everything out before time began and when He was ready thought out Jesus and made him, begat him to be His right hand man, his only mediator between He and man. Everything comes to real Jews via Jesus.

    I was told they are a race because if you test their DNA they all have a certain type of Semitic Hebrew DNA in their bloodline, regardless of what the colour of other races they are mixed with. And that this most specifically applies if the mother & Grandmother is Jewish because of the Mitochondrial DNA 🧬. Although, that said, I was also told by someone else that they are an Ethno-religious group so I still don’t know the real answer!? 🤷🏾‍♀️ 😅

    First and foremost this guys analogy here is flawed. There is only ONE human race on this planet...not several different ones. We all share 99.569% exactly the same DNA. There are however, many different ethno-cultural groups...or in modern day terms...ethnicities. Jewish is one of those ethnicities...a people...who originated in the Levant region some 3,200 years ago. All Jews worldwide share a common genetic ancestry to this region. Modern autosomal DNA testing analysis clearly demonstrates this. Not to be confused with “Judaism” (of course) which is merely the potential religious component which may (or may not) apply to any given Jewish individual...as many Jews are in fact secular/atheist and therefore follow no faith at all. Tel Aviv today...is about 80% secular, for example. Jewish is an ethno-cultural group identity from the Levant....and despite the diaspora with its obvious ‘watering down’ and ethnicity admixture influences from within the various host cultures...it still maintains a collective connection to the land of Israel and the Jewish psyche. Just keeping it real. 😎🌴🇮🇱👍⛱☀️

Heck she even paid money to change up my mum to some other kid with Georgian Blood but luckily my mum wasn't Changed. I know for sure, as that saying goes "Nose never Lies") and DNA test was required Between my mum and my Grandpa to prove our Jewishness for which we didn't have money.
