The Jews and the Native Americans

[Coyote]

Jesus lived in Palestine ? That has got to be the dumbest thing you've said, and that's saying a lot. Why do you find it necessary to re-write history?
You go through incredible lengths to de- legitimize Israel. What a ******* joke

Maybe not so dumb.

 

[50_RiaL]

I posted a video documenting Bible Maps of Palestine when Jesus lived there. Jesus was a Palestinian who lived in Palestine.

Palestine.Palestinian not mentioned even once in the New Testament. You must be readin' from the BDS NT version.

Judaea was renamed "Palaestina" after the Bar Kochba revolt.

So Judaea precedes "Palestina"? No wonder the Jews are fightin' so tenaciously for their land!

. Bible Maps before Israel, the creation of a nation in 1948 does not wipe out over 2000 years of History recording a land called Palestine.

Jesus lived in Judea, not Palestina.

Judea was a Roman province. And it was not the name to describe all of the land of Palestine. And Jesus did not live in Judea, He lived in the province of Galilee, in the city of Nazareth.

I thought he lived during Roman times....

Where's Judea on the Roman maps? I see a Palestina, but no Judea.

 

[toastman]

Judea was BEFORE Palestine. It is where Jesus lived

Would it be great if Hyrcanus can give us a legitimate site which states that most of the Jews in Israel have a European background....

Last time I looked into this, it only listed the ethnicity of immigrants to Israel.

It now appears that the Jewish population in Israel is about 50/50 Ashkenazi and Sephardic/Mizrahi Jews.

Mizrahi outnumber Ashkenazi . . . are the Mizrahi to be shipped to Russia?

 

[MHunterB]

Comparing the Native Americans to the Jews of Palestine is silly.

60% of Jews in Israel today are descended from European Jews, not native Jews or even Jews from the region.

There is a historical statute of limitations to call a people "natives".

1,500 years seems to sound fair.

Demographics of Israel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ethnic Makeup of Jewish Population of Israel[citation needed]

TOTAL 5,818,000 100%
Mizrahi Jews and Sephardic Jews 2,921,000 50.2%

I see you corrected this error: I appreciate that. Here is an article on the results of some genetic investigation which you may find of interest: http://cryptojews.com/comparing-dna-patterns-of-sephardi-ashkenazi-kurdish-jews/

The Romans changed the name from 'Judea' to 'Syria Palestina' after 135 CE. So in Jesus' time and for a century afterwards, it was still officially 'Judea'.

Where's Palestine in the Bible? Palestina was the name of the land AFTER Jesus dies.

 

[SherriMunnerlyn]

The name Palestine predated the Roman Empire's Occupation of the land of Palestine

 

[Hyrcanus]

Mizrahi outnumber Ashkenazi . . . are the Mizrahi to be shipped to Russia?

why would i want to ship anyone, anywhere?

 

[toastman]

So Jesus lived in Palestine, but it's not mentioned once on the Bible ??

 

[SherriMunnerlyn]

The*history of Palestine*is the study of the past in the region of*Palestine, the geographic region in Western Asia between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River, and various adjoining lands. Situated at a strategic location between*Egypt,Syria*and*Arabia, and the birthplace of majorAbrahamic religions,[citation needed]*the region has a long and tumultuous history as a crossroads for religion, culture, commerce, and politics. Palestine has been controlled by numerous different peoples, including the*Ancient Egyptians,Canaanites,*Ancient Israelites,*Assyrians,Babylonians,*Persians,*Ancient Greeks,*Romans,Byzantines, the*Muslims, the*Crusaders,*Ayyubids,Mameluks,*Ottomans, the*British, The*Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan*(1948-1967) and modernIsraelis*and*Palestinians. Other terms for the same area include*Canaan,*Zion, the*Land of Israel,*Southern Syria,*Jund Filastin,*Outremer, theHoly Land*and the*Southern Levant.

[SherriMunnerlyn]

I keep posting Bible Maps, parts of Christian Bibles, showing the land was called Palestine. Maps of Palestine are there for all to see.

Jesus lived in Judaea.

who's name was changed to Palaestine about 100 years after Jesus died.

No, Judea was just one of multiple provinces in Paledtine under Roman Occupation. Jedus did not even live in the Roman province of Judea.

 

[toastman]

Not when he lived there. Not according to the old testament.

Where is Palestine mentioned in the bible ?
Also, the inhabitants of Palestina were Roman, Jews and Philistines. Not Arabs. So it has no connection to today;s so called Palestine.
Arabs came from Arabia, remember ?

Yes, it does look from your site, that you were wrong about stating that the majority of Israeli Jews have a European background. In fact, I think for years and years the readers of these forums knew all about all these Middle Eastern Jews. Meanwhile, here's an interesting piece you might enjoy which will show you why so many of these Middle Eastern Jews are now living in Israel.
