Thank you for your breakdown my friend ! I enjoyed hearing about your conversation with your wives cousin’s husband the Derbent Jew. I come from Khazars as well but who moved away in the areas of Belarus and Transylvania and merged with Ashkenazim and Sephardim. Its alot of “authentic” Jews from Persia and Babylon who came to Khzaria

[@theselector4733]

So when the Khazar empire was dispersed where did they all go? Most likely Russia, Poland and The Baltic States. Could they have been the origins of The Ashkenazim?

[@tagbarzeev8283]

No. Ashkenazi Jews do not come from Poland.

[@tagbarzeev8283]

No. Between the 1100's and 1300's various polish Kings inacted laws favorable to Jews and Casimir the great reinforced these existing laws and invited Jews to Poland.

@@tagbarzeev8283 The Kingdom of Poland was large but when The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was created it was enormous and took in what today includes: Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus, most of Ukraine and Estonia and a part of Russia. I'm sure many Jews would've lived in this area.

@theselector4733 many jews lived In the Commonwealth under the rule of Catherine the Great. This would include my Grandfather who came from Proskurov and my grandmother was from cherney ostrov a shtetl

Judaism is a religion that was created by man. They took the words of God and twisted it then called it Judaism. All profits in Messengers are Muslim which means ones who submit to God.

Jus that lived in Spain were under Muslim rule in Spain.
