What is the race of the socalled Jews?

I will explain this in full detail with proof if you don't mind. \n\nOK, in the Bible we have people known as Jews in the N.T. If you look in Strong's concordance under the word Jew. It will state "a member of the tribe of Judah"(only). So that is what the word means in the Bible, a seed of Judah or people from Judea. It's found in 3062 and 3064 of Strong's concordance which state that the word Jew only means Judah. Jew is Old English for the tribe of Judah which is "Lewe".\n\nSo if someone is claiming to be a Jew then they are claiming to be a seed of Judah, Jacobs 4th son. Today we call people Jews because their religion is Judaism or their mom is Jewish thus she practice Judaism. As you can see the modern term, it means people who convert to the religion of Judaism, and not being a seed of Judah.\n\nRev 3:9 and 2:9 state their will be those who claim to be Jews(Judahites thus Israelites) and are not, but do lie" If you call you self a Jew, then you claim to be of Judah. But if you convert it don't change your heritage, you are still a German, Nigerian, or Mexican of Jewish faith. The Messiah say himself that those people who call themselves Jew base on the modern definition are Not Judahites but do lie.\n\nWho are the people who claim to be Jews thus Israelites, they don't claim to be a seed of Israel! We know them as Jews? What else is mention about them base on the scriptures? They don't believe Jesus is the Messiah.\n\n1 John2:22 Who is the LIAR but he who denies that Jesus is the Messiah...\n2John 1:7 Many DECIEVERS have gone out into the world; they do not confess the coming of Jesus the Messiah in the flesh. This is THE DECIEVER and the ANTICHRIST

Hmm, I wonder... Do 99% of the Jews think of YOU AND YOUR RACE the same way?\n\nOr, are you simply an IGNORANT fellow? Or, are you full of ENVY?? Which is it???\n\nPeace be with you!

First the nazis said that all Jews look alike, and that the way they look was obvious to anyone who was not a Jew. Then they made the Jews wear the Star of David in order to distinguish them from non-Jews!

Who will teach the idiots that darker skin was what all humans had before they migrated into Europe and Asia.\n\nThere is only one race, the human race.

Arabs are sons of Abraham, Jews on the other hand is a religion not a race. We call people Jews because their religion is Judaism, and NOT because they are Israelites.

Your question is hard to answer.  I would say the Jews had the most loss of life.  But Jewish is not a "race".  The Soviet Union had the most fatalities.  But then again we're not talking "race".  So if you want just "race", then I would have to say "Caucasian".

There have been a few studies done which prove that many Jews do have a common male descendant. I know there was a study which shows that most "Cohen" (priests) do have a common male descendant (Aaron ?)\n\nThe problem with proving that Jews and Arabs are descended from a common male descendant:\n\n(1) Judaism has had many converts over the years. Some entire cultures (one in Africa, one in Asia) actually converted.\n(2) A jew is defined (by jews) as one who has a jewish mother. It has been that way for 2500 years. So one with a jewish mother, but gentile father would be harder to prove via "y" chromosome.\n(3) "Arabs" today are not the same as Arabs in biblical or even in Mohammed's time. Take for instance Egypt. The Egyptians were Copts until Islam. When they converted to Islam, they started speaking Arabic instead of Coptic. So they became Arab ethnicity without actually being of Arab descent.

Races of Mankind\n\nDefinition: As used here, race means a division of mankind possessing in characteristic proportions certain combinations of physical traits that can be inherited and that are sufficient to set the group apart as a distinct human type. It should be noted, however, that the fact that the races are capable of intermarriage and reproduction shows that they are actually of one “kind,” all being members of the human family. So the various races are merely facets of the total variation possible in humankind.\n\nFrom where did the various races come?\n\nGen. 5:1, 2; 1:28: “In the day of God’s creating Adam he made him in the likeness of God. Male and female he created them. After that he blessed them and called their name Man [or, Mankind] in the day of their being created.” “God blessed them and God said to them: ‘Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth.’” (Thus all mankind are descendants of that first human pair, Adam and Eve.)\n\nActs 17:26: “[God] made out of one man [Adam] every nation of men, to dwell upon the entire surface of the earth.” (So, regardless of what races make up a nation, they all are offspring of Adam.)\n\nGen. 9:18, 19: “Noah’s sons who came out of the ark were Shem and Ham and Japheth. . . . These three were Noah’s sons, and from these was all the earth’s population spread abroad.” (After God destroyed the ungodly world by means of a global flood in Noah’s day, the earth’s new population, including all the races known today, developed from the offspring of Noah’s three sons and their wives.)\n\nWere Adam and Eve merely allegorical (fictional) persons?\n\nThe Bible does not support that view; see the main heading “Adam and Eve.”\n\nWhere did Cain get his wife if there was just one family?\n\nGen. 3:20: “Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she had to become the mother of everyone living.” (So all humans were to be the offspring of Adam and Eve.)\n\nGen. 5:3, 4: “Adam lived on for a hundred and thirty years. Then he became father to a son in his likeness, in his image, and called his name Seth. And the days of Adam after his fathering Seth came to be eight hundred years. Meanwhile he became father to sons and daughters.” (One of Adam’s sons was Cain, and one of Adam’s daughters must have become Cain’s wife. At that time in human history when humans still had outstanding physical health and vitality, as indicated by the length of their lives, the likelihood of passing on defects as a result of marrying a close relative was not great. After some 2,500 years of human history, however, when mankind’s physical condition had greatly deteriorated, Jehovah gave to Israel laws forbidding incest.)\n\nGen. 4:16, 17: “Cain went away from the face of Jehovah and took up residence in the land of Fugitiveness [or, Nod] to the east of Eden. Afterward Cain had intercourse with his wife [“knew his wife,” that is, intimately so, KJ, RS; “lay with his wife,” NE] and she became pregnant and gave birth to Enoch.” (Notice that Cain did not first meet his wife in the land to which he fled, as if she were from another family. Rather, it was there that he had sexual relations with her to produce a son.)\n\nWhat explains the development of the various racial characteristics?\n\n“All men living today belong to a single species, Homo sapiens, and are derived from a common stock. . . . Biological differences between human beings are due to differences in hereditary constitution and to the influence of the environment on this genetic potential. In most cases, those differences are due to the interaction of these two sets of factors. . . . Differences between individuals within a race or within a population are often greater than the average differences between races or populations.”—An international body of scientists convened by UNESCO, quoted in Statement on Race (New York, 1972, third ed.), Ashley Montagu, pp. 149, 150.\n\n“A race

The first humans were black, if that's what you mean. Adam and Eve were Jewish, naturally.\n\n=p

Semites are middle eastern people and include Arabs and Israelis.  The Jews in America kind of co-opted the term so they could accuse people of picking on them.  One stupid girl reporter from the US actually asked Anwar Saddat if he was "anti-Semitic".  Pres. Saddat told her that would be foolish of him since he was a Semite.

I'm pretty sure there are more people in this world that belong to the Caucasoid race than the Mongoloid or the Negroid races i.e. if you divided the world's population into only those 3 races (which is under a lot of debate). \n\nCaucasoid race has several subdivisions. People from the Indian sub-continent, the Middle East and most people from Europe, Australia, North America and South America fall under the Caucasoid category. There are even individuals from Africa who fall under that race. Remember, Caucasoid doesn't just mean "white" skin so "whitey" is definitely not last!\n\nThe following extract is from the source below\n\nCaucasoid or Europid Subspecies \nA. Mediterranid race \n1. West Mediterranean or Iberid subrace (Spain, Portugal, Corsica, Sardinia, and coastal areas of Morocco and Tunisia; the Atlanto-Mediterranean peoples who expanded over much of the Atlantic coastal regions of Europe during the Mesolithic period were a branch of this subrace) \n2. East Mediterranean or Pontid subrace (Black Sea coast of Ukraine, Romania and Bulgaria; Aegean coasts of Greece and Turkey) \n3. Dinaricized Mediterraneans (Residual mixed types resulting from the blending of Mediterranids with Dinarics, Alpines or Armenids; not a unified type, has much regional variation; predominant element [over 60%] in Sicily and southern Italy, principal element in Turkey [35%], important element in western Syria, Lebanon and central Italy, common in northern Italy. The ancient Cappadocian Mediterranean subrace of Anatolia was dinaricized during the Bronze Age [second millennium B.C.] and is a major contributor to this type in modern Turkey.) \n4. South Mediterranean or Saharid subrace (predominant in Algeria and Libya, important in Morocco, Tunisia and Egypt) \n5. Orientalid or Arabid subrace (predominant in Arabia, major element from Egypt to Syria, primary in northern Sudan, important in Iraq, predominant element among the Oriental Jews) \n\n\nB. Dinaric race (predominant in western Balkans [Dinaric Mountains] and northern Italy, important in the Czech Republic, eastern and southern Switzerland, western Austria and eastern Ukraine) \n\n\nC. Alpine race (predominant element in Luxembourg, primary in Bavaria and Bohemia, important in France, Hungary, eastern and southern Switzerland) \n\nD. Ladogan race (named after Lake Ladoga; indigenous to Russia; includes Lappish subrace of arctic Europe) \n\nE. Nordish or Northern European race (various subraces in the British Isles, Scandinavia, the Netherlands and Belgium; predominant element in Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Finland and the Baltic States; majority in Austria and Russia; minority in France, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary; outlined in detail in The Nordish Race) \n\n\nF. Armenid race (predominant element in Armenia, common in Syria, Lebanon and northern Iraq, primary element among the Ashkenazic Jews) \n\n\nG. Turanid race (partially hybridized with Mongoloids; predominant element in Kazakhstan.; common in Hungary and Turkey) \n\n\nH. Irano-Afghan race (predominant in Iran and Afghanistan, primary element in Iraq, common [25%] in Turkey) \n\n\nI. Indic or Nordindid race (Pakistan and northern India)\n\n \nJ. Dravidic race (India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka [Ceylon]; ancient stabilized Indic-Veddoid [Australoid] blend)

lieberal?\n\nLiberal.\n\nAnd ALL Jewish people aren't anything.  Jewish people are individuals.  If you want to know about all of them, ask ALL of them and don't ask us for broad generalizations.

There are approximately 80,000 Jews in South Africa.  Roughly 68,930 of them are Caucasian, leaving 1170 or so non-white Jews in South Africa.\n\nApproximately 3% of the population of South Africa is of Asian descent.  The vast majority of these people are of Indian descent.   Indians make up about 2.2% of the total population, or 3% of the non-white population.  Assuming that the non-white Jewish population is distributed proportionally between various ethnic groups, we would expect that around 3% of the 1170 non-white Jews are of Indian descent.\n\nSo, based on estimated data and a lot of speculation, I would tentatively guess that there are 35 Jewish Indians living in South Africa.

yes, you are correct in this description of the semitic peoples of Jesus time, much interbreeding has changed this look and the typical Jew of today has lost most of these characteristics.
