Question

are African ameracans the real jews? Being that there's a debate with the nations around the whole earth saying they really dont know who are the real Israelites

Answer 1

Thank you, God bless you.

Answer 2

Jews are in every nation on earth due to God scattering them among the nations. There are Iraqi Jews, Iranian Jews, Chinese Jews, Russian Jews, French Jews, Ethiopian Jews, Brazilian Jews, etc. They are a part of every ethnic group on planet earth.

For more information, visit www.jewishagency.org, www.ifcj.org, www.standforisrael.org, www.wjc.org or do a google earch for "aliyah", the "going up" or immigration of Jews back to their homeland of Israel.

Answer 3

There is a group in Africa called the Lemba tribe. An extremely high number of them possess a genetic marker that is known to belong to a particular line of Jewish descent. The Lemba themselves believe themselves to be one of the lost tribes of Israel. It's an interesting idea. Here's two websites about it:

Answer 4

No, and does it matter? No one really cares either except the jews. Expend effort thinking about where humans are going, not where they're from perhaps?!

Answer 5

waalaikumsalam! well, let's see... prophet abraham (peace be upon him) had 2 sons - prophet isaac (peace be upon him) from his 1st wife sarah and prophet ishmael (peace be upon him) from his 2nd wife hagar. jews/israelites are from isaac family line while arabs are from ishmael family line. you see jews and arabs are basically cousins, in the same family. but why they are fighting until today, only Allah knows... so, if african americans are from isaac family then they are jews...

Answer 6

I don't know, but that's a good question.... If this was a perfect world, It wouldn't really matter I guess.

Answer 7

Nice pic...wow...um...what was the question...?
