Are Bukharian Jews Descended from the Lost Tribe of Naftali?

A short excerpt from Simcha Jacobivici's thought-provoking documentary 'Quest for the Lost Tribes'.

I loved the video. As a Bukharian Jew, I can say all Bukharian Jews don’t share the same genetic makeup. We are mixture of Persian Jews, Afghani Jews, and even Mountain Jews from Azerbaijani. Some of us have mixture of Moroccan Jews and Iraqi Jews as well.

What is Y haplotype of bukhari jews?

[@TagMahirTzedek]

Sefardim/Mizrachim moved around in different places. In fact even Askenasim moved to Central Asia as well.

[@sheilaginsberg-mu3to]

Jews are from different original they are still from our very mixed family. We don’t discriminate.

[@changolini]

You forgot to mention Sephardic

[@vahobalimov1187]

Is the video suggesting hephthalites were from Middle East? I thought they were white Huns, asiatic tribe from up north. Nomads. Never heard of anyone connecting them to Jewish tribes. Samarkand, as a city of Samaria or resemblance if it, that’s new new too. Word “Kand” or “Kent” is of Turkic origin, meaning “city”, that we know

I personally don't agree with his approach, as I explained in the class here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIOvcmx-jtCXnas

Hi, Great video thank you for this great piece of interesting information. But as a Turkic, can I ask you how could this Israelite/Jewish tribe have ruled there while many Turkic kaghanates were already ruling there (especially the huge Göktürk Kaghanate) ? And I have many interesting info on the matter of Torah and Turks connection if one day you're interested to hear about it let me know. I like your presentations a lot. (btw Samarkent for us in Turkic languages means the capital of Sumerians bc it's where it was supposed to be in antiquity) Blessings

[@EfraimPalvanov]

Thanks for the feedback. I actually don't quite agree with Jacobivi's argument here, and gave my personal opinion on the Lost Tribes here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIOvcmx-jtCXnas

[@ffnly4148]

@@EfraimPalvanov Thank you, it's on my watchlist. But you yourself you are from the Bukharian jews right ? When did they arrive in Bukhara ? I'm more interested in what you know rather than what I can find on wikipedia etc.

[@AdoptedCats]

Wrong ! Any Bukhari do not claim Naphtalim. These Uzbeks are tribe of Issacher 100%.

[@EfraimPalvanov]

As a Bukharian Jew myself, I don't actually agree so much with this video either, but I thought it was worth sharing. (The rabbi that is interviewed is my wife's great-uncle!) My real thoughts on the lost tribes of Israel are outlined here: www.mayimachronim.com/the-perplexing-history-of-the-ten-lost-tribes/

[@AdoptedCats]

@@EfraimPalvanov I heard both Bukhari Jews claims tribe of Issachar and tribe of Naphtali. I heard of it before. Maybe, my misunderstanding.

[@TagMahirTzedek]

People can claim anything. Some even claimed Bukharians are Benjaminites but theories need real proof

[@AdoptedCats]

@@TagMahirTzedek Bukhari is always proven tribe of Issacher, even by name and history. Not Benjamin.

There is a star in the corona borealis constellation due to go nova (phoenix style) this summer. Its a star that'll only be visible for a short time. Could that b3 a better candidate than a comet?

[@y2kabilov]

If Bukharian Jews are considered “lost” how did they maintain the traditions? Also amongst Bukharians you have many cohanim & levim

[@EfraimPalvanov]

Personally I don't agree with Jacobivici's argument in this video. I just shared it because I thought it was interesting nonetheless.
