.Our forefathers did their best to not define religion and ethnicity. In this fast paced world. People often see the Jews as an ethnic group not realizing their actual ethnicity is Hebrew. Just as Christianity is considered by most to be a religion it is in fact not at all a religion, it is an association or relationship with God and his son Jesus. Too many people have been left uneducated in differences of religions, ethic groups and relationships. Perhaps sociology in school instead of social studies.

The Hebrews (Jews) and Arabs are both decended from the Semites. So in addition to being a religion it is an ethnicity.
