Biblical Genetics | The Genetics of Modern Jews @biblicalgenetics8838 | Uploaded October 2021 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
"Who is a Jew?" and "Are the Jews genetically distinct?" are important and interesting questions. We have a biblical record of where they came from, we know of many people who married into Israel over time, and we know of many people who were were dispersed from Israel over time. We also have historical records of the various Jewish enclaves that appeared from Spain to Burma. BUT, is it even possible that these people, from such diverse places, and often with different skin, hair, and eye colors can be traced back to a single Middle Eastern source population? Yes, it is, but there are several important caveats to consider.
