0:26 Showing the Rabbi Ovadia Yoseph as Sephardic, when he was Iraqi, highlights the problem with defining the terms Sephardic and Mizrahi under only an ethnic definition. He was the chief Sephardic rabbi, because that is the religious tradition, but he was not a descendent of Spanish Jews.

[@alizahalon]

They don't define him as Sephardic so much because of ethnicity as much as because of which Halachic codifiers he follows. There are two basic lines of codifiers. Sephardic and Ashkenazi. Then you have various Rabbinic authorities for subgroups, depending on what region they are from.

The Children of Isreal were scattered into lands and taken into iron shackles in ships to foreign lands and forced to worship false Gods. This is not hard to trace back to America's and the Caribbean.

The Torah has five African nations in it nevertheless, I was surprised to see that this video actually mentioned actually ethnically African Jewish people! Generally, many assume that Mizrachi and Sephardim actually originated in Africa, however, the video was accurate concerning Sephardi roots being European. Please remember too that the "Hamitic Hypothesis" may have actually caused more confusion than anything else in the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries concerning African peoples which was formulated by C.G. Seligman. Also, "Semitic" is a linguistic term and was never meant to denote ethnicity or "race" in any way. Moreover, the Torah is not an historical document but rather a book of faith and should be appreciated ONLY in that way what's more, Judaism is a religion and not an ethnicity! Be informed too, that the term "Middle East" is a geopolitical term that reflects modern-day populations and NOT the "ancient" anthropological populations irrespective of religion.

Estelle there's a spiritual element far greater that jealousy. Satan wants to eliminate all Jews, reasoning no Jews, God's prophecies can't take place, his end won't come as written. If you study the scriptures you'll find this " war" began long ago, with focus on tribe of Judah because that's where Messiah would come from. If he could kill all jews in WW2, Israel would not have become a nation after more than 2000 years, marking the beginning of the end. Hatred against Jews is global because of this. The ungodly pass the hatred on to their children, and most Christian, gentile churches do not teach much on old testament, selective of new testament commandments.

We come from 12 different tribes that where different between them; each tribe had it's own customs. For example, Zevulun was one of the commercial tribes, Ephraim were mostly schollars, Levis where priests in the temple, etc. Also, for us, in the begining of Creation, God made Adam (which we concider the first man) with all the genetic data that there is in the world today. From him comes Noach with the ark who had three sons: Shem, Jam and Iafet from which derives different groups of people (Jam is mostly African people, Iafet is Europe and Nordic people and from Shem come the people from the Middle East and some other places). Thats why there are so many different bloodlines. From a scientific stand-a-point, genetics adapt to the place of where you are; it is possible that with the pass of generations some genetic traits evolved in order to survive the different climates they had to go to. An other factor that has to. be taken into consideration are the existance of conversion and mixed marriages. Hope this helps! Have a good week :)

I can simply answer it. I have a few reasons why. A. It's true, Spain and Portugal are in Europe. But back then it was occupied by Muslims. And in 1,400 King of Spain exiled the Jews.

Meaning even a Jews never went to Spain or Portugal called a Sephardic Jews. (It been mostly in customs i.e) Now.

People forget that it’s not about genetics when it comes to who’s Jewish. In Judaism, you’re Jewish if your mother is Jewish. Mizrahi May be the original Hebrews but in Judaism, a true convert is considered 100% Jewish. So if you’re completely foreign yet you have a true conversion (what makes it true isn’t germain to this point) and then bear children, your children are Jewish. It explains why there are many different kinds of Jews. As long as they are observant then they are spiritually Jewish. Genetics are one thing but observant Jews don’t care about genetics. At least the faithful ones. Every group in the world has a minority representing extreme fundamentalist. People tend to forget that.

[@Travieso78702]

Oh, I see what you mean.

[@avinaughty]

it is only because there are much more "mizrahi" than "sepharadi". you have a common prayer, but there are so many differences. the sepharadi were part of "the old settlement". living here in the 19th century and earlier, in jerusalem, hebron, safed, tiberias, owning property, seeing themselves as intellectuals. yehoram gaon for example. also all those with spanish family names such as toledo, toledano, sevillia, pinto, franco, guetta, saporta, and many more who come from spanish language. they mostly have no claims against the way they were treated by the ashkenazi zionists. many of the french jews are spanish -sepharadi - and italian jews. whereas mizrahi jews are so different, most of them immigrated in the 1950's and later, into great poverty and disadvantages, felt great frustration, not knowing who to blame, eventually feeling discriminated against. they "bear-hugged" the sepharadi so they could present a larger group but they are trapped in a big inferiority complex. still not wanting to let go of their non-intellectual heritage.

Sephardic and Ashkenazi are first a form of religious practice and religious interpretations. Sephardic Jews did originated from Spain (hence "Sephardic") but settled all the middle east and north Africa (not the Yemenite Jews, though) . "Mizrahi" is a general name for all Jewish Immigrants who came from Muslim countries and all of them are Sephardic. Nowadays "Mizrahi" is a cultural and sociological group and even and most importantly, a political group. Ashkenazi Jews in Israel are basically been through the same sociological and cultural process. Mizrahi as a political group created, and unique, to Israel, and reflect Israel's political history and ideological choices.

According to the Torah and Tanakh none of these people are the true descendants of the Israelites but are converts

[@TheJenniferKK]

Last time I checked, all rabbis (mizrahi, ashkenazi, orthodox, liberal) accept sincere converts and perform their conversion rituals, after the convert has extensively studied the religion, sometimes for years on end. The Mishna and Tanakh are positive towards it too. Where do you get your info? I know several converts...

[@job5831]

@@TheJenniferKK Last I checked, the tanakh states the Most High will lead His people back to Israel upon the return of His Son. The physical descendants will be led back and it is at that time converts that were grafted in will be allowed to also enter into His rest. Last I checked, the Ashkenazi, the Mizrahi, and the Sephardim are all converts according to the Torah and not the physical descendants of Abraham which makes their presence in Israel an occupation. Last I checked, of course.

[@TheJenniferKK]

@@job5831 Actually, they are indeed the physical descendants of Abraham, because even Muslims are descendants of Abraham. Perhaps you mean a specific son of Abraham's? Also, most Ashkenazis live outside of Israel, not occupying anything. And last, they can trace their paternal lineage back to Shem.

[@job5831]

@@TheJenniferKK Actually, they are indeed NOT the physical descendants of Abraham and neither can they trace their paternal lineage to shem but rather shem's brother, Japheth. They are european converts and I've researched this in extensive detail. The antichrist will arise from these people and lead its adherents into destruction upon the return of the true Messiah. Any that fall for the hoax and lie that they are "God's chosen people" will share in their destruction. God Bless.

[@job5831]

@@TheJenniferKK In order to be from Abraham’s seed as the Ashkenazi Jews claim in present day Israel, you would have to be from the lineage of the brother Shem, Noah’s Son. Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. It is a biblical fact that the Israelites come from the brother Shem and ONLY from this brother, we can see this at 1 Chronicles 1:24-27, 34, where it lists the names of this lineage (the important names are capitalized): 24 SHEM, Arpachshad, Shelah, 25 Eber, Peleg, Reu, 26 Serug, Nahor, Terah, 27 Abram, that is, ABRAHAM 34 Abraham became father to Isaac. The sons of Isaac were Esau and ISRAEL. So we see from here, in order to be a Semite or claim to be the descendants of Abraham, your lineage would have to come through the brother Shem, not Ham nor Japheth. Let’s see where the Ashkenazi Jews descend from, shall we. We can see this lineage also in 1 Chronicles or in Genesis 10 (the important names are capitalized) : Genesis 10:1 This is the history of Noah’s sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the Flood. 2 The sons of JAPHETH were GOMER, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras. 3 The sons of GOMER were ASHKENAZ... So from here we see that the Ashkenazi Jews, who call themselves just that and who put all faith in the Torah, or the first five books of the Bible, are NOT the descendants of Shem whose line produced the first Hebrew Abraham (Luke 3:34-36) but are descendants of his brother Japheth through his son Gomer. So they cannot claim to be Abraham’s seed neither can they claim to be the Jews of the Bible nor label ANYTHING as “anti-Semitic”. And thus, the apostle John spoke about this group in the book of Revelation. Revelation 3:9 Look! I will make those from the synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews yet are not, but are lying-look! I will make them come and bow before your feet and make them know that I have loved you. (Revelation 2:9 as well.) Why does the apostle John make such a bold statement? Because they are not the biblical Israelites of the Bible. Not only that, they claim to be Jews because of their conversion to Judaism. Let’s see what the apostle Paul said about this. Galatians 1:13 Of course, you heard about my conduct formerly in Judaism, that I kept intensely persecuting the congregation of God and devastating it. Judaism is in opposition to the congregation of God. It is not my aim to argue with you but to impart knowledge. You have two options, disregard this biblical truth and continue being led off into destruction, or take this biblical knowledge and apply it and pray on it. 1 Thessalonians 5:21 Test ALL things; hold onto what is good. God Bless
