Dalya Hakimi : Yes! Now they are Jewish since a while and they are Israeli citizens and all live in Israel. One of them is married to a powerful Iranian-American Jewish man who loves Chinese culture. They got married in a Sefardi Synagogue in Jerusalem. I wish them a very happy marriage Mazal Tov ✡️🇨🇳❤️✡️🇮🇷 in 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
After the destruction of the second temple, we were only one race and Our God sent us on the diaspora now we have Jewish of every race and this is the beauty of our religion.
This is so beautiful ! After so many generations they are finally where they belong... this is what happened to my grandmother's family... We are Peruvian Jews... may G-d bless them
according to the Bible ISRAEL is the name given to sons of Joseph and not to Judah. So why are you calling contrary to the Torah, some supposed Yahudim with the name which the Torah assigns not to Yahudim but to Ephraim ???? Are you so ignorant of the Torah? YES, YOU ARE. Repent. :-)
Baruch HaShem! The Word of G-d is being fullfilled!!! ... Isaiah 11:12 He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four quarters of the earth.
I am genuinely sad (not internet sad - real world sad) after reading all of these hateful comments from what I can only assume are my fellow Jews about how these women are not Jewish. Friends, remember where we came from and what happened to us two thousand years ago. We have been divided - spread all over the world, but now, for the first time in an age we have a home again. We come from all backgrounds, forced upon us by the pain of the diaspora - Caucasian, Slavic, Germanic, Arab, African, Iberian, Indian, and YES, Chinese. We might not look the same, but we are ONE PEOPLE.
Yes, a NATION can be people of other races... that is how many Native American origial peoples describe themselves... and DESCENDANTS of those Jews who escaped annihilation in Jerusalem in AD70, at the advice of Yehoshua (Jesus), for the faithful, happened.... And, if YHWH can direct such Jews to escape a maelstrom to survive, then they are ONE PEOPLE with ONE MINDSET. My own Grandfather, and my Mother were Jews in the U.K., and while they were British, they were Jews also.... And they became Christians during WW2... though in my mind the wrong church was involved... as they did not respect the Sabbath... only very few churches do that... Seventh Day Adventists and Seventh-Day Baptists, that I know of.
The First Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by Babylon in 586BC. Some Jews were moved to Babylon but some Yemenite Jews escaped to southern part of Arabian Peninsula or Yemen. Then, Babylon was conquered by Persia. Jews were released by Cyrus the Great (600BC-530BC) of Persia and Jews returned to Jerusalem and built the original Second Temple. However, not all the Jews returned to Jerusalem and some Persian Jews moved toward east to Central Asia which was still under Persia control. The most famous Jewish city was Bukhara on Silk Road. The trade with China was mainly done by Bukhara Jews. According to recently archeological discovery on ancient Chinese before Qin (秦) dynasty (221BC-207BC), today's Chinese were from Shanxi originally 2200BC-2100BC. Before 2200BC, these people lived north or west of Shanxi. More precisely, these people came from Siberia and Central Asia. Based on Chinese history, Jews was a part of northern invaders and they started to invade toward south in year 48 and they finally settled in Shanxi by year 216. Shiloh became Later Zhao (319-351) emperor and Later Zhao was the first Jewish dynasty in Chinese history.
I (艾)、Shi (石)、Kao (高)、Kim (金)、Lee (李)、and Zhao (趙) are six major Chinese Jewish family names. My wife's MyHeritage results are out. She has a family name Kao (高) and she is mainly Chinese and Vietnamese, and Mongolian. She is also related to Japanese and Korean, and Central Asian, plus 1.7% Finnish. The most interesting part is that she has two genetic groups as 1) Spain, Algeria, and France, and 2) Portugal.
I was at my father’s resting place in LA. I was thinking back our family past. Our family lost wealth and life in China but God gives more wealth and life back to our family in the States.
@@hcwoolfgmailcom Many Albanians support Isreal as they have helped Albanians a lot, such as lobbying for Kosovo for instance (a new Synagogue and Jewish musuem will be finished this year as a token of appreciation), not to mention Albanians protected the Jewish community from the Nazis in WW2. I wish Isreal the best and I hope they can achieve peace with their Palestinian neighbours.
Thank God. Finally, I got good news from my travel agent that they had gathered enough people to form a tour group traveling to Israel and Jordan. My wife and I join this tour group after 3 years of delay due to covid-19 pandemic. We shall take Turkish Airlines flights from Taipei on 3/3 to Istanbul then arriving Tel Aviv on 3/4.
We had a pre-trip meeting today. We shall travel to Israel first, then to Jordan, and then back to Israel. We were warned not to bring a Menorah crossing Israel border to Jordan.
After 2000 years of diaspora, Jews had mixed with other races of the world. It is most important to know the migration of Jews in Middle East, Europe, Central Asia, Asia, Americas, and Africa. Through DNA tests, we know that we are not a pure single race but a mixture of races.
Through DNA test results of my nephew, we had learned that by genes, Yen family is not only related to Chinese but also related to Japanese, Koreans, Mongols, and people of Central Asian nations. Y-chromosome can trace back ancestors for 1000 generations or about 25,000 to 30,000 years. We were taught by Chinese history books that Chinese ancestors lived in Yellow River region of Shanxi, Henan, and Shaanxi for thousands of years. However, according to the DNA test results, our early ancestors lived in Egypt first, then they moved to Israel, and then to Mesopotamia. This is consistent with Bible story as well as history of Assyria and Persia. DNA does not lie.
My family’s chinese Jewish blood can trace back to my great grandfather that I’ve lived with for 2 years of my life. I’ve taken a DNA test but only .2% reminded lol. However, my aunt has married a Jewish man and my cousins are 50.2% of Jewish now 😂😂😂 how life comes around.
A book published in China by a Jewish descendant in 2011 has an English book title "Shiloh, Jehu Emperor and His Nationality" where Shiloh (石勒) is the emperor name called by Han Chinese and Jehu (羯胡) is the Jewish race called by Han Chinese. My Taiwanese high school classmates in the US studied Bible well and they did a research on this Shiloh family. Shiloh family was from Tribe of Dan in Israel.
@Mystery Less History Very strange. I could only find a Japanese book description if I would do a Google search on "Shiloh, Jehu Emperor and His Nationality". In reality, this book can only be found in a couple of library in China and Japan. Chinese do not want people to know their true ancestry. Therefore, a lot of Chinese Jewish history on internet was erased.
The passion and love that to Jewish people have for the land of Israel is truly admirable. May they thrive and prosperous in the land of Israel. I'm an Indian Hindu and for us India is a sacred land just like Israel is sacred land to the Jewish people. I completely understand and relate to the sentiments that the Jewish people have towards Israel.
As a Kaifeng Jew said before, "It is most important that I know that I am a Jew." Genetically, no one can deny a Kaifeng Jew having Jewish ancestors. Therefore, it is not important to a Kaifeng Jew if whoever does not recognize Kaifeng Jews as Jews. I myself had no idea any connection with Jews until over a year ago when my father passed away. I am glad that I understand Chinese Jews now through over one year of research on internet. I am also very glad to share all the information with people of Israel and with Chinese Jews if they can get on internet to this RUclips video.
I’m from Cambodia and currently, I’m doing an internship in Israel. To be honest, My feeling toward People of Israel are most of them are so friendly and they have something that I must learn from.
I am also born from chinese ancestors who used to be jews. Now they converted to Christianism, but it is known that their ancestors used to practice Judaism. Even though they're not religiously jews, I can still see in my Christian grandfather some similarities between jews mentality. Hhhhh isn't this funny ... Which leads me to think and I wanna remember to people that choosing a religion is not only knowing there is one deity, wich is the case,only one God exist,but it's also choosing a way of thinking. And honestly I think my grandfather kept unconsciously some beliefs that his asian jews ancestors had. If only some people knew that doesn't stop everyone to be different than others, unique people. 😊
ruclips.net/video/5YTbfB0ug40/видео.html Oldest languages in the world: Comparison Hebrew and Mandarin Chinese are both about 4500 years old languages. It is no surprise that there are Hebrew words in Mandarin Chinese.
A survey on Jin (晉) dialect (ancient Hebrew) was conducted by college students and scholars in Shanxi in 2017. The results were amazing. Shanxi Jews can speak both Mandarin and ancient Hebrew but only one third of them will speak ancient Hebrew with others. One amazing finding is that 40% Shanxi Jews can speak English. Another finding is that Shanxi Jews have a higher percentage of people with higher education.
It is wonderful that you have found modern Jewish people in Kaifeng. If you know the Chinese history, the Jewish Chinese are concentrated in Shansi Province and also scattered all over China. The only problem is that Jews and Chinese are mixed for at least 700 years when the Ming emperor forced all non-Han race to get married with Han people. That means a Jewish man can only marry a Han girl and a Jewish girl can only marry to a Han man. Any violation to this rule will be death penalty.
During Han Dynasty (202BC-220), I (艾) and Zhao (趙) were two Jewish families originated from Tian Shui (天水) area about 200km west of Xi'an (西安). My family name Yen (嚴) was also originated from the same Tian Shui area which was the beginning of Silk Road on China side and also a trade - distributing center on the Silk Road.
Lee is the largest family name in the world for well over 100 million Chinese and Koreans. In the video, on the welcome banner, three Kaifeng Jews out of five girls have Chinese family name Lee. Kaifeng ancestor Jews Levi had picked Lee as their Chinese family name because the sound Lee is very close to Levi.
From 700 BC to 100 BC, Yuezhi people lived bordering with Qin (秦) (905 BC to 207BC) people in China. Yuezhi people were defeated by Xiongnu or Huns. Then, most Yuezhi people moved toward west and they live in Afghanistan today. As we know Afghan people are from Tribes of Israel, we can see that Yuezhi people are actually people of Israel. A small portion of Yuezhi people stayed in Gansu (甘肅), China even after Yuezhi people were defeated by Xiongnu or Huns. No wonder, the Chinese Jewish families such as Ai (艾) and Zhao (趙) were originated from Gansu (甘肅), China. My family name Yen (嚴) was also originated from the same area.
Shalom to my high school classmates in Israel. We were 1966 graduates from Community School, Tehran, Iran. I learned Chinese and English and I live in Taiwan. I also had learned Russian, Spanish, and Persian before. I can not speak Hebrew. However, a lot of Hebrew words are in Chinese language.
David Yen hello Mr. David.. I'm sorry for disturbing you. I want to ask you, that my grandparents both are from Fujian Province. They are Hokkien people (part of Han chinese). Then they moved to Indonesia. So I was borned in Indonesia. And I have read about Han Chinese have intermarried with Kaifeng Jews. So, how do I know that I have a Jewish roots or not? Thank you Mr. David ☺☺
23andMe may be able to determine Jewish ancestors. Shanxi Jews were Huns/Jews descendants and Hakka Jews were ancient Han Chinese/Jews descendants. Both Shanxi Jews and Hakka Jews were controlled by women in business and farming and by men in military and study. They also avoided intermarriages with other groups of people in China. www.23andme.com/ 23andMe
I spent over 5 years on the subject of Chinese Jews historically and geographically. Historically, Chinese Jews (with Jewish father and Chinese mother) started from 2600 years ago beginning with Persian Jews moving from Persia to Central Asia. Geographically, Persian Jews moved from Central Asia to Siberia, then China, and then back to Central Asia, Caspian Sea and Black Sea area, then finally they had reached Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, and Russia. The descendant of Chinese Jews had reached a 200 million population worldwide but were not recognized by the world due to religious and language issues. I believe that I have finished my research on the subject of Chinese Jews.
that's fascinating. first time hearing of the Jews of Pakistan. I've also heard that the Pashtun of Afghanistan are a lost tribe. That's most people in Afghanistan. Some of their traditional names are very Jewish sounding indeed
cool, I'm sure not many survived in Pakistan , but it still cool there are. there are more in India, the Menashe tribe was found there, in the next Eruvision in tel aviv , in the the preference stage a real Menashe tribe jew is going to sing.

Jews are not just a religious group but also a race. Judaism talks about one nation, a promise land, in fact their national anthem very clearly mentions it with the phrase "land of zions". A Chinese Jew , Indian Jew, Ethiopian Jew , Russian Jew, etc are not zions and definitely no semite. They are either converts or their Jewish ancestry is so old that hardly any trace of Jewish DNA is left in them. The lost tribes are lost forever. If not then why they all are so different. The only reason I find it justifiable is because of dwindling Jewish population. I am not against it but I always believed that there is lot of emphasis on Jewish blood that all the rabbis make. They put a lot of stress on marrying within the community to preserve the Jewish race and not just religion.
I am in the States to attend my daughter’s graduation of Wharton EMBA 2018 Class. Other than Americans, a lot of Indians and Chinese graduated. One interesting fact is that most Chinese graduates have Chinese Jewish family names. To do business is still their family tradition.
Chinese and Jews are quite similar, old people. and face discrimination around the world, be killed in Europe and South East Asia, especially Germany and Indonesia. respect intelligent people than strength. And of course , the similar situation of Singapore and Israel
On August 1, 2024, we were in old Warsaw town square. It was the 80th Warsaw Uprising Day. At 4PM, alarm siren sounded. Everyone including our tour group people, stood still in silence for 1 minute.
Return? They are largely Han Chinese but a common jewish ancestor has given them that ancestral link but they are not Semitic due to their mostly Han Chinese ancestry
Who cares, they have comparative high IQ as Ashkhenaz Jews. I rather bring more Chinese than Africans. After all they are related to the khazar, who are themselves east Asian.
They have the right to think that they are Jewish, they have real jewish ancestor，and what is important is their hearts.Han Chinese accepted them 1000 years ago, and Israel will accept them today.I am Han Chinese，and I am happy for them
@@lianghao7128 forgive me my ignorance, but I thought that Chinese Jews came more recently than 1000 years ago. I read that they came from Russia, therefore they are modern Russian Ashkhenazim. Some of them were modern Jews business people, stranded in China during the second world war. If I am wrong, please inform me. I really would like to know where they come from, if their root date from 1000 years ago m
The story of those Jews who escaped eradication by Romans in AD 7, was that Yehoshua (Jesus) made a warning to the faithful Jews, that when they were surrounded with no hope seen for survival, that "way out" was manifested as prophesized, and the fled to all "4 corners" of this Earth as directed, hoping that the women were not at "suck" or pregnant... for obvious reasons in flight by foot. They also exist in Papua New Guinea as descendants of Lavai, and part of the Orokolo tribes... My wife was one of these descendants, and we had 6 children, and adopted another. I have heard of a "jewish" tribe in Far Northern Queensland, Australia as well.
Later Jin (Five Dynasties) - Wikipedia The descendant of Shi family of Shanxi established Hou (Later) Jin dynasty (936-947). We can see that Shi (Shiloh) family is closely related to Lee (Levi) family in Shanxi. Jin language is the ancient Hebrew.
How do they have more rights to live in Israel than Palestinians? They have always lived in China their whole life, while Palestinians were kicked out of their own land.
The Jews of Asia The term "Hakka" was not originally a designation for a certain ethnic group living in a particular area. When the term "Hakka" first appeared in household registries during the Song Dynasty, it was used to indicate "guests" who had left their homelands to settle down in other parts of the country, in contrast to residents originally from the area. Although evidence is sketchy, the Hakkas are thought to originate from the lands bordering the Huang River (Yellow River) or Shanxi, Henan, and Hubei Provinces of the Northern China of today. To escape calamity, they would later flee southward traveling through many lands. They eventually settled down in the Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong Provinces. Referred to by locals as "Hakka" or "guests", the Hakkas appeared on the world stage for the first time. The Hakkas took to the road in five separate major migrations. The nickname "Jews of Asia" intimates these mass migrations and their pioneering spirit.
The modern Chinese language can be simplified into two groups as the Mandarin language and southern Chinese dialects. The Mandarin language is the common official language for 1.37 billion Chinese today. The Mandarin language only has one dialect that is ancient Hebrew used mainly by people in Shanxi and Shaanxi today. That is why there are so many Hebrew words in Chinese language. Because no Hebrew writing but Chinese characters exist for Mandarin language, only the sound of Hebrew words are blended into this common official Chinese language.
I was in Shanxi and I could not understand a single word what they said in Ancient Hebrew. However, they understand my Mandarin Chinese without any problem.
When we left Bratislava, Slovakia to Vienna Airport, Austria, we were checked at the boarder that is unusual between EU countries. When we told the boarder controller that we were from Taiwan than China, we were let go. We guess that some Chinese use Slovakia as the gate to enter EU.
Does anybody know the current situation of these women? How I can maybe get in touch with them? I will be going to Israel soon, and I would really like to meet them!
Shanghai and Hong Kong are two sea shore cities. People in Shanghai and Hong Kong would favor fish and shrimp than pork meat. Chinese Jews have no restrictions on shellfish or pork. Shanxi, China is an inland province. Therefore, Shanxi Jews favor mutton meat than other types of meat. They also eat fishes from Yellow River. Shanxi Jews eat noodles and there are hundreds different types of noodles. Shanghai Jews eat rice. Hong Kong Jews eat rice and noodles equally.
The original Jews are Semitic group of people they would of looked like what the Palestinian look like thousands of years ago. Since those Jews went spreading all over the world they did mix and inter married with other people. Real Jews are not white neither so the white Jews aka ashkenazi are in no position to judge cause they also are the outcome of inter marriage.
I was just watchiing a documentary proving the Hebrews in Egypt did exist, but the datelin previously was found to be wrong only... and the Egyptians termed to "Jews" as ASIANS... so must have been unlike Egyptians of that time. Race is a modern phenomenon, and bent whichecer way racists want it. I lived in Papua New Guinea for 10 Years, and saw the differences, even in the tribe that called themselves "LAVAI-IPI" meaning descendants of Levi.
Two years ago, when I visited Iran, there was about 2 million Afghanistan refugees in Iran. They came from Afghanistan to Iran through Afghanistan or Pakistan borders. Iranian government was checking buses on highways to stop refugees coming into Iran. In Tehran, we saw some Afghanistan kids on streets during day time and they caused no trouble. Their parents were probably working nearby but we could not tell.
My mother passed away over one year ago and my parents now rest together next to each other in LA. Based on my great grandfather and grandfather first names, I can trace back the first stop of our Yen ancestors from Shanxi to southern China in Ming dynasty over 700 years ago. The secret is to put a certain Chinese character for each generation of Yen family. Based on my DNA test results, I have over 1000 genetic relatives who did the 23andMe tests and I have over 100 genetic relatives closely related to me. My genetic relatives are mostly Chinese, Vietnamese, people of Philippines, Japanese, Koreans, Mongols, people of Central Asian nations, and Indians.
23andMe just raised my genetic relative threshold so that I have only over 300 genetic relatives who took 23andMe DNA tests and I have only over 30 close genetic relatives now. However, the distribution of my genetic relatives in different nations is about the same. If there are more people taking 23andMe DNA tests, the number of my genetic relatives will go up.
They are, they are jewish arrivals in Kaifeng at 1000s, we actually collected their blood and tested Human Haplogroups, it is quite amazing they maintained their genetic identities.
My wife has Finnish genes but I have Scandinavia genes. She has Mongolia genes but I have Inuit genes. Our ancestors came from the same places Shanxi, China and Siberia, Russia. Now, I realize that our ancestors in Siberia moved in different directions. My wife's ancestors moved toward west and finally reached Finland. My ancestors moved toward east and finally reached Canada, Greenland, and Scandinavia.
The number one Korean family name is Kim. Lee is the second largest family name in Korea. South Korea plus North Korea have about 9 million Lees. Samsung is owned by a Lee family in South Korea. Lee is a major Jewish family name in Shanxi. We can estimate that Jewish population in Korea is a few million. Some Korean Jews moved to Japan after WWII.
I am in Armenia now. I could not use RUclips in Iran where I had visited for the past 10 days. It really helps me to understand the history of Jews and Armenians through these trips.
In the last century, Jews, Armenians, and Chinese Jews faced genocides in Europe, Turkey, and China. It is very sad to see that those strong nations such as Germany, Turkey, and China could not protect minorities in their nations. Even today, we do not see much changes of attitude toward minorities in those nations. Taiwan is still facing daily threats from China. However, we shall stand strong against the threats from China.
My wife and I joined a tour group for 10 days in Iran and 4 days in Armenia and we traveled from Taipei to Hong Kong and took Qatar Airways to Doha and Shiraz, Iran. Then, by bus we traveled to Isfahan and Tehran. We met friendly Iranians with warm welcome from street people in Shiraz and Isfahan. In Tehran, Iranians were busy to work and they paid little attention to us. Because of US trade sanction, Japan, Korea, China, India, and Taiwan are doing business with Iran. I did not see any anti-US or anti-Israel propaganda. The only sign could be seen was that Iranian changed the former US Embassy in Tehran to "US Den of Espionage Museum". Iranians did not stamp inside our Taiwanese passports as if we had not been in Iran at all. The only inconvenience to my wife was that she needed to cover her hair in public places. Iranian food does not have varieties as Chinese food. The vegetables were tomato, cucumber, and green vegetables. The meats were fish, mutton, and chicken. All food including water, bread, and food ingredients need to go through religious process before preparation. There are no alcoholic beverages but Coca-Cola is in Iran. We fly from Tehran, Iran to Yerevan, Armenia. Armenia trip was like a trip to Russia because languages of Armenian, Russian, and English were used in Armenia. Armenian food had more varieties especially pork was added to menu. Although Armenia was considered as an Orthodox Christian nation but we did not see many followers as we saw in Russia. Communism had destroyed Orthodox Christianity in Armenia. Armenia defense force is formed by Armenian and Russian military forces. Armenian military force will watch Azerbaijan border and Russian military force will watch Turkey and Iran borders.
Iranian military has two parts national military and religious military. The national military is better equipped than religious military. When Tehran University girl students protested the cover of hair last year, the national military surrounded the university campus and would not allow anyone to get into the campus not even the religious military. Then, the girl students' fathers were called to pick up their daughters from university campus. The whole event was ended peacefully.
During our trip to Iran, the topic of who are the smart businessmen in the region was brought up between our tour group members. According to my observation, our tour group members were formed with one third Shanxi Jews and two thirds Hakka Jews. All of them had been in Israel and Jordan before except my wife and I. We had concluded that Iranians, Jews, and Arabs (especially Palestinians) are the smartest businessmen in the region. One member indicated that 2 million Palestinians in Jordan are richer on average than Jordanians.
When we were in Armenia, every member of our tour group laid a white carnation flower at the Armenia Genocide Holocaust Memorial in Yerevan, Armenia. Before our visit to Armenia, we had also visited an Armenian church in Isfahan, Iran. Inside the church yard, a smaller Armenia Genocide Memorial is located. One day before our visit to this church, the Armenian president was visiting this church and we saw a flower wreath with ribbons of Armenian flag laid in front of the Armenia Genocide Memorial. Personally, my math teacher in my high school in Tehran, Iran was an Armenian 55 years ago. It seems that Iranian government treated Armenians and Jews well in Iran. However, Jews are not allowed to serve in Iranian government or military.
I can not speak Shanghainese which is my father's language. I speak Mandarin Chinese the common language for most Chinese in China. I had been in Shanxi but I could not understand their Jin (晉) language or ancient Hebrew. I was watching a RUclips on pronunciations comparison of Mandarin Chinese and Jin language. Because Jin language is the only dialect in Mandarin Chinese, we still can hear some similarities between two languages. One thing had surprised me the most is that Jin language sound like Shanghainese. It means that my ancestors left Shanxi 700 years ago had brought their Shanxi Jin language or ancient Hebrew with them to Shanghai area. Or we can say that Shanxi Jews in Shanghai had kept their Jin language or ancient Hebrew. No wonder that Shanghai is a center of Chinese Jews.
Wikipedia provides a good definition of Jews. The languages widely used by Jews are English, Hebrew, and Russian. French and Spanish are also commonly used by Jews. For Chinese Jews, the languages widely used are Mandarin Chinese, Jin dialect (ancient Hebrew), Hakka dialect, and English. Chinese Jews also use host country languages in Asia. The languages taught in colleges in Taiwan include English, Japanese, Slavic languages, Arabic languages, Korean, Turkish languages, and European languages. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews Jews
When you travel, you learn a lot of new knowledge not in books. When my wife and I were in Moscow, Russia, we learned that Zhou Enlai (1898-1976) was a Chinese Jew. When my wife and I were in palaces near Taj Mahal, India, we saw the star of David on buildings. I could not know these, if I did not go to these places.
According to the study by a Chinese on Internet, the origin of Chinese can be traced back to 4,000 years ago. Xia dynasty (2070 BC - 1600 BC) was established in China by Hagar of Abraham 2070 BC. Shang dynasty (1600 BC - 1046 BC) had roots with Abraham grandson Esau and his wife Judith. Esau and Judith 14th grandson established Shang dynasty in China 1600 BC. After Shang dynasty, Zhou dynasty was established 1100 BC where Zhou stands for Jews. Zhou people were from Tribe of Dan. Zhou people were descendants of Jacob the twin brother of Esau. However, no artifacts of Xia dynasty in China was found to this date. Shang dynasty and Zhou dynasty artifacts could be found in China.
Chinese people should realize that Chinese people today are very different from historical Chinese people 2000 years ago. After 2000 years, Chinese Jews in China have grown to a population over 200 million people and become the main stream in Chinese politics and economy today. Chinese Jews still pass to their next generations the same message that our ancestors came from Shanxi in Ming Dynasty 700 years ago. If a Chinese Jew goes back to Shanxi and tells Shanxi Jews about this story, Shanxi Jews will treat you as the same family member with a warm welcome even you cannot speak their ancient Hebrew language.
Later Zhao (後趙) (319-350) was the first Jewish dynasty in Chinese history. Later Jim (後晉) (936-946) was the second Jewish dynasty in Chinese history. Both dynasties were founded by Shi (石) family. Northern Qi (北齊) (550-577) was another Jewish dynasty in China established by Kao (高) family. Tang (唐朝) (618-907) was the greatest Chinese Jewish dynasty in Chinese history, and Tang dynasty was established by Lee (李) family. Sung (宋朝) (960-1279) was the last Chinese Jewish dynasty in Chinese history, and Sung dynasty was established by Zhao (趙) family. Kim (金朝) (1115-1234) was a Chinese Jewish dynasty in Northern China, and Kim dynasty was founded by Kim (金) family. No wonder that Shi (石)、Kao (高)、Lee (李)、Zhao (趙)、Kim (金) are major Chinese Jewish family names in China. Whereas in Korea, Kim (金) (21.5%) and Lee(李) (14.7%) are two major family names. These two Korean families dominate Korean economy and politics.
On the welcome banner, the Jewish girl on the top of list has a Chinese family name Kao (高). Kao is a common Chinese family name for Kaifeng Jews and Shanxi Jews. Kao is the second most important Shanxi Jewish family name only next to Shi (石). My wife has this family name Kao and her ancestors moved from Shanxi (山西) to Shandong (山東) 700 years ago.
One Jewish girl in the video has the family name of Yue (岳). Recently from a RUclips video, I have learned that Yue family was from Anyang, Henan (河南安陽) east of Shanxi. Definitely, Yue is a Chinese Jewish family name.
This is precisely the point of Israel. Nowhere in the world the idea of "Never Again" to the Shoa is ever more present and that includes the Revival of the Hebrew language and the ingathering of the exiles. And being thankful! Because despite it all the Jewish state doesn't define itself by hate but by how to create Israeli society with good and gratitude.
I say once again, God bless them and peace be with them. God bless Israel and her people. Peace be with you all.

This is so beautiful ! After so many generations they are finally where they belong... this is what happened to my grandmother's family... We are Peruvian Jews... may G-d bless them
May G-d bless all of Israel. May G-d bless all the children of Israel no matter what part of the world they are from.
are you so naive? they are who? how do you know they are ancient Judeans? Because you want it so much to be true?
It doesn't make it true yet...
according to the Bible ISRAEL is the name given to sons of Joseph and not to Judah. So why are you calling contrary to the Torah, some supposed Yahudim with the name which the Torah assigns not to Yahudim but to Ephraim ????
Are you so ignorant of the Torah?
YES, YOU ARE.
Repent. :-)
gr8deals2do The more you speak, the greater your ignorance is exposed. Keep talking stupid.

@@mrsbrownandhercat It does when you realize it's Metaphoric you envious ignoramous, have fun sucking at life LOL
I am genuinely sad (not internet sad - real world sad) after reading all of these hateful comments from what I can only assume are my fellow Jews about how these women are not Jewish. Friends, remember where we came from and what happened to us two thousand years ago. We have been divided - spread all over the world, but now, for the first time in an age we have a home again. We come from all backgrounds, forced upon us by the pain of the diaspora - Caucasian, Slavic, Germanic, Arab, African, Iberian, Indian, and YES, Chinese. We might not look the same, but we are ONE PEOPLE.
how can you be one people if you are made up of different races? it is dumb and stupid. you are not a people. you are just a religion.
no
Yes, a NATION can be people of other races... that is how many Native American origial peoples describe themselves... and DESCENDANTS of those Jews who escaped annihilation in Jerusalem in AD70, at the advice of Yehoshua (Jesus), for the faithful, happened.... And, if YHWH can direct such Jews to escape a maelstrom to survive, then they are ONE PEOPLE with ONE MINDSET. My own Grandfather, and my Mother were Jews in the U.K., and while they were British, they were Jews also.... And they became Christians during WW2... though in my mind the wrong church was involved... as they did not respect the Sabbath... only very few churches do that... Seventh Day Adventists and Seventh-Day Baptists, that I know of.
A S Theyre converts and mixes you shit head.
Yehudi yes,I agree with you. The so called Jews is a fake conception, even most of them have no any religion,by the way!
Only the Zionism is true!
I am crying when they sing and I don't know why....
just beautiful
I am so proud, wonderful, Hashem is bringing them back
AMAZING STORY!!! Shalom to ALL Jews and to ALL people who believe in GOD and GOD ONLY! everywhere!🕊🙏🔯
Beautiful. From the ancient Hebrew tribes
that blessed even china. Blessings and peace . Shalom
The First Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by Babylon in 586BC. Some Jews were moved to Babylon but some Yemenite Jews escaped to southern part of Arabian Peninsula or Yemen. Then, Babylon was conquered by Persia. Jews were released by Cyrus the Great (600BC-530BC) of Persia and Jews returned to Jerusalem and built the original Second Temple.
However, not all the Jews returned to Jerusalem and some Persian Jews moved toward east to Central Asia which was still under Persia control. The most famous Jewish city was Bukhara on Silk Road. The trade with China was mainly done by Bukhara Jews.
According to recently archeological discovery on ancient Chinese before Qin (秦) dynasty (221BC-207BC), today's Chinese were from Shanxi originally 2200BC-2100BC. Before 2200BC, these people lived north or west of Shanxi. More precisely, these people came from Siberia and Central Asia.
Based on Chinese history, Jews was a part of northern invaders and they started to invade toward south in year 48 and they finally settled in Shanxi by year 216. Shiloh became Later Zhao (319-351) emperor and Later Zhao was the first Jewish dynasty in Chinese history.
I (艾)、Shi (石)、Kao (高)、Kim (金)、Lee (李)、and Zhao (趙) are six major Chinese Jewish family names.
My wife's MyHeritage results are out. She has a family name Kao (高) and she is mainly Chinese and Vietnamese, and Mongolian. She is also related to Japanese and Korean, and Central Asian, plus 1.7% Finnish. The most interesting part is that she has two genetic groups as 1) Spain, Algeria, and France, and 2) Portugal.
My tears fall after they sang their song even if I can't understand them.
Hi, I'm chinese and my uncle is jewish. I have two little jewish cousins now, they are both like unbelievable mixed-blood cuties.
G-d bless you and your family

Go away troll, no one asked for you.
I was at my father’s resting place in LA. I was thinking back our family past. Our family lost wealth and life in China but God gives more wealth and life back to our family in the States.
Its good to see how much u work and how much u love your country. I hope one day my country, Albania will be strong like u. Greetings from Albania
Love and Peace to Albania! from Israel
@@hcwoolfgmailcom
Many Albanians support Isreal as they have helped Albanians a lot, such as lobbying for Kosovo for instance (a new Synagogue and Jewish musuem will be finished this year as a token of appreciation), not to mention Albanians protected the Jewish community from the Nazis in WW2. I wish Isreal the best and I hope they can achieve peace with their Palestinian neighbours.
@@spiceguy2408 Thank you so much, God bless Albania!
Thank God. Finally, I got good news from my travel agent that they had gathered enough people to form a tour group traveling to Israel and Jordan. My wife and I join this tour group after 3 years of delay due to covid-19 pandemic. We shall take Turkish Airlines flights from Taipei on 3/3 to Istanbul then arriving Tel Aviv on 3/4.
We had a pre-trip meeting today. We shall travel to Israel first, then to Jordan, and then back to Israel. We were warned not to bring a Menorah crossing Israel border to Jordan.
I am in Israel now!
I am in Jordan now.
When I said Shalom to a person near our Haifa hotel, I got a response “Welcome home “.
I am back to Israel now!
God bless Jewish community all around the world. Love and kisses 😱
Thank you and God bless you, too!
After 2000 years of diaspora, Jews had mixed with other races of the world. It is most important to know the migration of Jews in Middle East, Europe, Central Asia, Asia, Americas, and Africa. Through DNA tests, we know that we are not a pure single race but a mixture of races.
Yeah. So js be civilized people. Get a job and buy a house. Stop claim people land as your land😏
The girl said 我很開心來到以色列。 I’m happy to arrive in Israel.
INCREDIBLE! Glory be to God!
Through
DNA test results of my nephew, we had learned that by genes, Yen family is not
only related to Chinese but also related to Japanese, Koreans, Mongols, and
people of Central Asian nations. Y-chromosome
can trace back ancestors for 1000 generations or about 25,000 to 30,000 years. We were taught by Chinese history books that Chinese
ancestors lived in Yellow River region of Shanxi, Henan, and Shaanxi for
thousands of years. However, according
to the DNA test results, our early ancestors lived in Egypt first, then they moved
to Israel, and then to Mesopotamia. This
is consistent with Bible story as well as history of Assyria and Persia. DNA does not lie.
Welcome!!!!
Likewise !!
My family’s chinese Jewish blood can trace back to my great grandfather that I’ve lived with for 2 years of my life. I’ve taken a DNA test but only .2% reminded lol. However, my aunt has married a Jewish man and my cousins are 50.2% of Jewish now 😂😂😂 how life comes around.
Brings a tear to my eye. God bless.🙏🏻
A
book published in China by a Jewish descendant in 2011 has an English book
title "Shiloh, Jehu Emperor and His Nationality" where Shiloh (石勒) is the emperor name
called by Han Chinese and Jehu (羯胡) is the Jewish race
called by Han Chinese.
My
Taiwanese high school classmates in the US
studied Bible well and they did a research on this Shiloh
family. Shiloh family was from Tribe of
Dan in Israel.
@Mystery Less History Very strange. I could only find a Japanese book description if I would do a Google search on "Shiloh, Jehu Emperor and His Nationality". In reality, this book can only be found in a couple of library in China and Japan. Chinese do not want people to know their true ancestry. Therefore, a lot of Chinese Jewish history on internet was erased.
Why is it people have to be so negative on the comments , If these girls are happy what does that have to do with you , Or are you jealous ?
Yes they are ! ! !
Marc Tremblay I’m jealous
Ozzy bin Oswald is there a difference between a moron and a fucking moron?
The passion and love that to Jewish people have for the land of Israel is truly admirable. May they thrive and prosperous in the land of Israel. I'm an Indian Hindu and for us India is a sacred land just like Israel is sacred land to the Jewish people. I completely understand and relate to the sentiments that the Jewish people have towards Israel.
Blessings from Israel to you my Hindu friend! We love you!
You have lost half of your land to pakis
As
a Kaifeng Jew said before, "It is most important that I know that I am a
Jew." Genetically, no one can deny
a Kaifeng Jew having Jewish ancestors.
Therefore, it is not important to a Kaifeng Jew if whoever does not
recognize Kaifeng Jews as Jews. I myself
had no idea any connection with Jews until over a year ago when my father
passed away. I am glad that I understand
Chinese Jews now through over one year of research on internet. I am also very glad to share all the
information with people of Israel and with Chinese Jews if they can get on
internet to this RUclips video.
Beautiful...Thanks H-m for take your people back.
any connection to Aboav fam. from Huston ??
I’m from Cambodia and currently, I’m doing an internship in Israel. To be honest, My feeling toward People of Israel are most of them are so friendly and they have something that I must learn from.
I am also born from chinese ancestors who used to be jews. Now they converted to Christianism, but it is known that their ancestors used to practice Judaism. Even though they're not religiously jews, I can still see in my Christian grandfather some similarities between jews mentality. Hhhhh isn't this funny ... Which leads me to think and I wanna remember to people that choosing a religion is not only knowing there is one deity, wich is the case,only one God exist,but it's also choosing a way of thinking. And honestly I think my grandfather kept unconsciously some beliefs that his asian jews ancestors had. If only some people knew that doesn't stop everyone to be different than others, unique people. 😊

Oldest languages in the world: Comparison
Hebrew and Mandarin Chinese are both about 4500 years old languages. It is no surprise that there are Hebrew words in Mandarin Chinese.
A survey on Jin (晉) dialect (ancient Hebrew) was conducted by college students and scholars in Shanxi in 2017. The results were amazing. Shanxi Jews can speak both Mandarin and ancient Hebrew but only one third of them will speak ancient Hebrew with others. One amazing finding is that 40% Shanxi Jews can speak English. Another finding is that Shanxi Jews have a higher percentage of people with higher education.
VERY interesting!!
How wonderful to see these lovely young girls coming home to Israel .
It
is wonderful that you have found modern Jewish people in Kaifeng.
If you know the Chinese history, the Jewish Chinese are concentrated in Shansi Province
and also scattered all over China. The only problem is that Jews and Chinese are
mixed for at least 700 years when the Ming emperor forced all non-Han race to
get married with Han people. That means
a Jewish man can only marry a Han girl and a Jewish girl can only marry to a
Han man. Any violation to this rule will
be death penalty.
During Han Dynasty (202BC-220), I (艾) and Zhao (趙) were two Jewish families originated from Tian Shui (天水) area about 200km west of Xi'an (西安). My family name Yen (嚴) was also originated from the same Tian Shui area which was the beginning of Silk Road on China side and also a trade - distributing center on the Silk Road.
Lee
is the largest family name in the world for well over 100 million Chinese and
Koreans. In the video, on the welcome
banner, three Kaifeng Jews out of five girls have Chinese family name Lee. Kaifeng
ancestor Jews Levi had picked Lee as their Chinese family name because the
sound Lee is very close to Levi.
From 700 BC to 100 BC, Yuezhi people lived bordering with Qin (秦) (905 BC to 207BC) people in China. Yuezhi people were defeated by Xiongnu or Huns. Then, most Yuezhi people moved toward west and they live in Afghanistan today. As we know Afghan people are from Tribes of Israel, we can see that Yuezhi people are actually people of Israel. A small portion of Yuezhi people stayed in Gansu (甘肅), China even after Yuezhi people were defeated by Xiongnu or Huns. No wonder, the Chinese Jewish families such as Ai (艾) and Zhao (趙) were originated from Gansu (甘肅), China. My family name Yen (嚴) was also originated from the same area.
Shalom
to my high school classmates in Israel. We were 1966 graduates from Community School,
Tehran, Iran.
I
learned Chinese and English and I live in Taiwan. I also had learned Russian, Spanish, and
Persian before. I can not speak
Hebrew. However, a lot of Hebrew words
are in Chinese language.
David Yen hello Mr. David.. I'm sorry for disturbing you. I want to ask you, that my grandparents both are from Fujian Province. They are Hokkien people (part of Han chinese). Then they moved to Indonesia. So I was borned in Indonesia. And I have read about Han Chinese have intermarried with Kaifeng Jews. So, how do I know that I have a Jewish roots or not? Thank you Mr. David ☺☺
23andMe
may be able to determine Jewish ancestors.
Shanxi Jews were Huns/Jews descendants and Hakka Jews were ancient Han
Chinese/Jews descendants. Both Shanxi
Jews and Hakka Jews were controlled by women in business and farming and by men
in military and study. They also avoided
intermarriages with other groups of people in China.

@@theresathe8791 Hey, did you find out yet!?
I spent over 5 years on the subject of Chinese Jews historically and geographically. Historically, Chinese Jews (with Jewish father and Chinese mother) started from 2600 years ago beginning with Persian Jews moving from Persia to Central Asia. Geographically, Persian Jews moved from Central Asia to Siberia, then China, and then back to Central Asia, Caspian Sea and Black Sea area, then finally they had reached Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, and Russia. The descendant of Chinese Jews had reached a 200 million population worldwide but were not recognized by the world due to religious and language issues. I believe that I have finished my research on the subject of Chinese Jews.

by the way ,let me inform u that jews also lives in Pakistan.although in a very small quantity but they exists
that's fascinating. first time hearing of the Jews of Pakistan. I've also heard that the Pashtun of Afghanistan are a lost tribe. That's most people in Afghanistan. Some of their traditional names are very Jewish sounding indeed
cool, I'm sure not many survived in Pakistan , but it still cool there are. there are more in India, the Menashe tribe was found there, in the next Eruvision in tel aviv , in the the preference stage a real Menashe tribe jew is going to sing.

Jews are not just a religious group but also a race. Judaism talks about one nation, a promise land, in fact their national anthem very clearly mentions it with the phrase "land of zions". A Chinese Jew , Indian Jew, Ethiopian Jew , Russian Jew, etc are not zions and definitely no semite. They are either converts or their Jewish ancestry is so old that hardly any trace of Jewish DNA is left in them. The lost tribes are lost forever. If not then why they all are so different. The only reason I find it justifiable is because of dwindling Jewish population. I am not against it but I always believed that there is lot of emphasis on Jewish blood that all the rabbis make. They put a lot of stress on marrying within the community to preserve the Jewish race and not just religion.
Devendra Vijay, don't try to be so smart, your head will explode.
I believe my peopel are one of the lost tribes. We also have tradition of washing hands before eating , like the Jews🤷♀️
I am in the States to attend my daughter’s graduation of Wharton EMBA 2018 Class. Other than Americans, a lot of Indians and Chinese graduated. One interesting fact is that most Chinese graduates have Chinese Jewish family names. To do business is still their family tradition.
"We jewish now!"
try more: we are Jews in the last 1,000 years of Jewish history in China 🤨
Just becus they don’t look like Jews today do not mean there not jewsih
Wow - what a great home coming - all the best you girls - God bless you all
Chinese and Jews are quite similar, old people. and face discrimination around the world, be killed in Europe and South East Asia, especially Germany and Indonesia. respect intelligent people than strength. And of course , the similar situation of Singapore and Israel

God Bless Israel. Israel peoples are so kind ❤
Return? They are largely Han Chinese but a common jewish ancestor has given them that ancestral link but they are not Semitic due to their mostly Han Chinese ancestry
Who cares, they have comparative high IQ as Ashkhenaz Jews. I rather bring more Chinese than Africans. After all they are related to the khazar, who are themselves east Asian.
They have the right to think that they are Jewish, they have real jewish ancestor，and what is important is their hearts.Han Chinese accepted them 1000 years ago, and Israel will accept them today.I am Han Chinese，and I am happy for them
@@lianghao7128 forgive me my ignorance, but I thought that Chinese Jews came more recently than 1000 years ago.
I read that they came from Russia, therefore they are modern Russian Ashkhenazim.
Some of them were modern Jews business people, stranded in China during the second world war.
If I am wrong, please inform me. I really would like to know where they come from, if their root date from 1000 years ago m
The story of those Jews who escaped eradication by Romans in AD 7, was that Yehoshua (Jesus) made a warning to the faithful Jews, that when they were surrounded with no hope seen for survival, that "way out" was manifested as prophesized, and the fled to all "4 corners" of this Earth as directed, hoping that the women were not at "suck" or pregnant... for obvious reasons in flight by foot. They also exist in Papua New Guinea as descendants of Lavai, and part of the Orokolo tribes... My wife was one of these descendants, and we had 6 children, and adopted another. I have heard of a "jewish" tribe in Far Northern Queensland, Australia as well.
Wow Chinese jew how possible however God bless them
Later Jin (Five Dynasties) - Wikipedia
The descendant of Shi family of Shanxi established Hou (Later) Jin dynasty (936-947). We can see that Shi (Shiloh) family is closely related to Lee (Levi) family in Shanxi. Jin language is the ancient Hebrew.

How do they have more rights to live in Israel than Palestinians? They have always lived in China their whole life, while Palestinians were kicked out of their own land.
Right of conquest
The
Jews of Asia The term "Hakka" was not
originally a designation for a certain ethnic group living in a particular
area. When the term "Hakka" first appeared in household registries
during the Song Dynasty, it was used to indicate "guests" who had
left their homelands to settle down in other parts of the country, in contrast
to residents originally from the area. Although evidence is sketchy, the Hakkas
are thought to originate from the lands bordering the Huang River (Yellow
River) or Shanxi, Henan, and Hubei Provinces of the Northern China of today. To
escape calamity, they would later flee southward traveling through many lands.
They eventually settled down in the Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong Provinces.
Referred to by locals as "Hakka" or "guests", the Hakkas
appeared on the world stage for the first time.
The Hakkas took to the road in five separate major migrations. The
nickname "Jews of Asia" intimates these mass migrations and their
pioneering spirit.
The
modern Chinese language can be simplified into two groups as the Mandarin
language and southern Chinese dialects.
The Mandarin language is the common official language for 1.37 billion
Chinese today. The Mandarin language
only has one dialect that is ancient Hebrew used mainly by people in Shanxi and
Shaanxi today. That is why there are so
many Hebrew words in Chinese language.
Because no Hebrew writing but Chinese characters exist for Mandarin
language, only the sound of Hebrew words are blended into this common official Chinese
language.
David Yen give an example plz.
You need to read a published book written by Mr. 石 in 2011. He gave loads of examples. Mr.石 spent years of travel and research on his Jewish roots.
石旭昊 is author’s full name. A lot of book content is on Internet. Ancient Hebrew in Chinese Mandarin language was emphasized in the book.
I was in Shanxi and I could not understand a single word what they said in Ancient Hebrew. However, they understand my Mandarin Chinese without any problem.
When we left Bratislava, Slovakia to Vienna Airport, Austria, we were checked at the boarder that is unusual between EU countries. When we told the boarder controller that we were from Taiwan than China, we were let go. We guess that some Chinese use Slovakia as the gate to enter EU.
Does anybody know the current situation of these women? How I can maybe get in touch with them? I will be going to Israel soon, and I would really like to meet them!
Forget about it... they are much too good for you.
Shanghai and Hong Kong
are two sea shore cities. People in Shanghai and Hong Kong
would favor fish and shrimp than pork meat.
Chinese Jews have no restrictions on shellfish or pork. Shanxi, China is an
inland province. Therefore, Shanxi Jews
favor mutton meat than other types of meat.
They also eat fishes from Yellow River.
Shanxi Jews eat noodles and there are hundreds different types of noodles. Shanghai Jews eat rice. Hong Kong Jews eat rice and noodles equally.
The original Jews are Semitic group of people they would of looked like what the Palestinian look like thousands of years ago. Since those Jews went spreading all over the world they did mix and inter married with other people. Real Jews are not white neither so the white Jews aka ashkenazi are in no position to judge cause they also are the outcome of inter marriage.
I was just watchiing a documentary proving the Hebrews in Egypt did exist, but the datelin previously was found to be wrong only... and the Egyptians termed to "Jews" as ASIANS... so must have been unlike Egyptians of that time. Race is a modern phenomenon, and bent whichecer way racists want it. I lived in Papua New Guinea for 10 Years, and saw the differences, even in the tribe that called themselves "LAVAI-IPI" meaning descendants of Levi.
Hoooo... You are so smart... unfortunatly, there are so many like you in this world.... shame.

My mother passed away over one year ago and my parents
now rest together next to each other in LA.
Based on my great grandfather and grandfather first names, I can trace back
the first stop of our Yen ancestors from Shanxi to southern China in Ming
dynasty over 700 years ago. The secret
is to put a certain Chinese character for each generation of Yen family. Based on my DNA test results, I have over
1000 genetic relatives who did the 23andMe tests and I have over 100 genetic
relatives closely related to me. My
genetic relatives are mostly Chinese, Vietnamese, people of Philippines, Japanese,
Koreans, Mongols, people of Central Asian nations, and Indians.
23andMe just raised my genetic relative threshold so
that I have only over 300 genetic relatives who took 23andMe DNA tests and I
have only over 30 close genetic relatives now.
However, the distribution of my genetic relatives in different nations
is about the same. If there are more
people taking 23andMe DNA tests, the number of my genetic relatives will go up.
Currently, I have 600 genetic relatives and over 170 close genetic relatives.
During new year period, there was an increase of DNA tests taken by people. Now I have 655 relatives and 189 3-4th cousins.
To this date, I have 770 genetic relatives plus 221 3-4th cousins.
Lol....this is hilarious
Thanks from Egypt: )
these are certainly not Jews by ancestry.
Umadbro?
How would you know that? What about Ethiopian Jews? The Indian Jews? How about the Yemenite, Moroccan, Iraqi, Russian, Ukrainian, Spanish Jews?
Amit Kumar I'm Asian and one of the girls had a hint of middle eastern face.
Anyways ashkenazi don't look Semetic lol
They are, they are jewish arrivals in Kaifeng at 1000s, we actually collected their blood and tested Human Haplogroups, it is quite amazing they maintained their genetic identities.
Amit Kumar Ashkenazi Jews are fake Jews, the real Jews are black.
My wife has Finnish genes but I have Scandinavia genes. She has Mongolia genes but I have Inuit genes. Our ancestors came from the same places Shanxi, China and Siberia, Russia. Now, I realize that our ancestors in Siberia moved in different directions. My wife's ancestors moved toward west and finally reached Finland. My ancestors moved toward east and finally reached Canada, Greenland, and Scandinavia.
The
number one Korean family name is Kim.
Lee is the second largest family name in Korea. South Korea
plus North Korea
have about 9 million Lees. Samsung is
owned by a Lee family in South
Korea.
Lee is a major Jewish family name in Shanxi.
We can estimate that Jewish population in Korea is a few million. Some Korean Jews moved to Japan after
WWII.
I am in Armenia now. I could not use RUclips in Iran where I had visited for the past 10 days. It really helps me to understand the history of Jews and Armenians through these trips.
In
the last century, Jews, Armenians, and Chinese Jews faced genocides in Europe,
Turkey, and China. It is very sad to see
that those strong nations such as Germany, Turkey, and China could not protect
minorities in their nations. Even today,
we do not see much changes of attitude toward minorities in those nations. Taiwan is still facing daily threats from
China. However, we shall stand strong
against the threats from China.
My
wife and I joined a tour group for 10 days in Iran and 4 days in Armenia and we
traveled from Taipei to Hong Kong and took Qatar Airways to Doha and Shiraz,
Iran. Then, by bus we traveled to
Isfahan and Tehran. We met friendly
Iranians with warm welcome from street people in Shiraz and Isfahan. In Tehran, Iranians were busy to work and they
paid little attention to us. Because of
US trade sanction, Japan, Korea, China, India, and Taiwan are doing business
with Iran. I did not see any anti-US or
anti-Israel propaganda. The only sign
could be seen was that Iranian changed the former US Embassy in Tehran to "US
Den of Espionage Museum". Iranians
did not stamp inside our Taiwanese passports as if we had not been in Iran at
all. The only inconvenience to my wife was
that she needed to cover her hair in public places. Iranian food does not have varieties as
Chinese food. The vegetables were
tomato, cucumber, and green vegetables.
The meats were fish, mutton, and chicken. All food including water, bread, and food
ingredients need to go through religious process before preparation. There are no alcoholic beverages but
Coca-Cola is in Iran.
We
fly from Tehran, Iran to Yerevan, Armenia.
Armenia trip was like a trip to Russia because languages of Armenian,
Russian, and English were used in Armenia.
Armenian food had more varieties especially pork was added to menu. Although Armenia was considered as an Orthodox
Christian nation but we did not see many followers as we saw in Russia. Communism had destroyed Orthodox Christianity
in Armenia. Armenia defense force is
formed by Armenian and Russian military forces.
Armenian military force will watch Azerbaijan border and Russian
military force will watch Turkey and Iran borders.

military has two parts national military and religious military. The national military is better equipped than
religious military. When Tehran
University girl students protested the cover of hair last year, the national
military surrounded the university campus and would not allow anyone to get
into the campus not even the religious military. Then, the girl students' fathers were called
to pick up their daughters from university campus. The whole event was ended peacefully.
During our trip to Iran, the topic of who are the smart
businessmen in the region was brought up between our tour group members. According to my observation, our tour group
members were formed with one third Shanxi Jews and two thirds Hakka Jews. All of them had been in Israel and Jordan before
except my wife and I. We had concluded
that Iranians, Jews, and Arabs (especially Palestinians) are the smartest
businessmen in the region. One member
indicated that 2 million Palestinians in Jordan are richer on average than
Jordanians.
When we were in Armenia, every member of our tour
group laid a white carnation flower at the Armenia Genocide Holocaust Memorial
in Yerevan, Armenia. Before our visit to
Armenia, we had also visited an Armenian church in Isfahan, Iran. Inside the church yard, a smaller Armenia
Genocide Memorial is located. One day
before our visit to this church, the Armenian president was visiting this
church and we saw a flower wreath with ribbons of Armenian flag laid in front
of the Armenia Genocide Memorial.
Personally, my math teacher in my high school in Tehran, Iran was an
Armenian 55 years ago. It seems that
Iranian government treated Armenians and Jews well in Iran. However, Jews are not allowed to serve in
Iranian government or military.
Good to see young mind following the root of ancestor.....
I can not speak Shanghainese which is my father's language. I speak Mandarin Chinese the common language for most Chinese in China. I had been in Shanxi but I could not understand their Jin (晉) language or ancient Hebrew. I was watching a RUclips on pronunciations comparison of Mandarin Chinese and Jin language. Because Jin language is the only dialect in Mandarin Chinese, we still can hear some similarities between two languages. One thing had surprised me the most is that Jin language sound like Shanghainese. It means that my ancestors left Shanxi 700 years ago had brought their Shanxi Jin language or ancient Hebrew with them to Shanghai area. Or we can say that Shanxi Jews in Shanghai had kept their Jin language or ancient Hebrew. No wonder that Shanghai is a center of Chinese Jews.
Wikipedia
provides a good definition of Jews. The
languages widely used by Jews are English, Hebrew, and Russian. French and Spanish are also commonly used by
Jews. For Chinese Jews, the languages
widely used are Mandarin Chinese, Jin dialect (ancient Hebrew), Hakka dialect,
and English. Chinese Jews also use host
country languages in Asia. The languages
taught in colleges in Taiwan include English, Japanese, Slavic languages,
Arabic languages, Korean, Turkish languages, and European languages.

When
you travel, you learn a lot of new knowledge not in books. When my wife and I were in Moscow, Russia, we
learned that Zhou Enlai (1898-1976) was a Chinese Jew. When my wife and I were in palaces near Taj
Mahal, India, we saw the star of David on buildings. I could not know these, if I did not go to
these places.
Zhou Enlai a Chinese Jew? NO WAY...
ptliang011 why
According
to the study by a Chinese on Internet, the origin of Chinese can be
traced back to 4,000 years ago. Xia
dynasty (2070 BC - 1600 BC) was established in China by Hagar of Abraham 2070 BC. Shang dynasty (1600 BC - 1046 BC) had roots
with Abraham grandson Esau and his wife Judith.
Esau and Judith 14th grandson established Shang dynasty in
China 1600 BC. After Shang dynasty, Zhou
dynasty was established 1100 BC where Zhou stands for Jews. Zhou people were from Tribe of Dan. Zhou people were descendants of Jacob the
twin brother of Esau. However, no
artifacts of Xia dynasty in China was found to this date. Shang dynasty and Zhou dynasty artifacts could
be found in China.
Chinese
people should realize that Chinese people today are very different from
historical Chinese people 2000 years ago.
After 2000 years, Chinese Jews in China have grown to a population over
200 million people and become the main stream in Chinese politics and economy
today. Chinese Jews still pass to their
next generations the same message that our ancestors came from Shanxi in Ming
Dynasty 700 years ago. If a Chinese Jew
goes back to Shanxi and tells Shanxi Jews about this story, Shanxi Jews will
treat you as the same family member with a warm welcome even you cannot speak
their ancient Hebrew language.
Later Zhao (後趙) (319-350) was the first Jewish dynasty in Chinese history. Later Jim (後晉) (936-946) was the second Jewish dynasty in Chinese history. Both dynasties were founded by Shi (石) family.
Northern Qi (北齊) (550-577) was another Jewish dynasty in China established by Kao (高) family.
Tang (唐朝) (618-907) was the greatest Chinese Jewish dynasty in Chinese history, and Tang dynasty was established by Lee (李) family.
Sung (宋朝) (960-1279) was the last Chinese Jewish dynasty in Chinese history, and Sung dynasty was established by Zhao (趙) family.
Kim (金朝) (1115-1234) was a Chinese Jewish dynasty in Northern China, and Kim dynasty was founded by Kim (金) family.
No wonder that Shi (石)、Kao (高)、Lee (李)、Zhao (趙)、Kim (金) are major Chinese Jewish family names in China.
Whereas in Korea, Kim (金) (21.5%) and Lee(李) (14.7%) are two major family names. These two Korean families dominate Korean economy and politics.
On
the welcome banner, the Jewish girl on the top of list has a Chinese family
name Kao (高). Kao is a common Chinese
family name for Kaifeng Jews and Shanxi Jews.
Kao is the second most important Shanxi Jewish family name only next to
Shi (石). My wife
has this family name Kao and her ancestors moved from Shanxi (山西) to Shandong (山東) 700 years ago.
One Jewish girl in the video has the family name of Yue (岳). Recently from a RUclips video, I have learned that Yue family was from Anyang, Henan (河南安陽) east of Shanxi. Definitely, Yue is a Chinese Jewish family name.
This is precisely the point of Israel. Nowhere in the world the idea of "Never Again" to the Shoa is ever more present and that includes the Revival of the Hebrew language and the ingathering of the exiles. And being thankful! Because despite it all the Jewish state doesn't define itself by hate but by how to create Israeli society with good and gratitude.
Finally, finally, the children of Abraham returned home. The outside world did not know the suffering and hardship of Jews in this part of the world.
