    It was a pleasure and honor to participate in this short documentary on the Samaritans. Their heritage and history are so interesting and inspiring. My guests are always amazed to learn that descendants of the Biblical Samaritan Israelites exist today and continue to observe their anceint faith and traditions on Mount Gerezim in the Heartland of Israel.

    The Samaritans didn’t disappear - the vast majority converted to Islam. You now know them as Palestinians. Palestinians can be Greek Orthodox, Catholic, Sunni Muslim and Ba’hai. And the small population that of the Samaritans that remain in Nablus work, live a mingle amongst other Palestinian sects. The problem came when Europeans that believe in myths came to expel the natives.

    You got the Rabbinic Judaism view totally wrong, and this is coming from a Jew, not a Samaritan.
    The Rabbinic view is that Samaritans arrived in Israel following expulsion and forced assimilation by certain kings of Assyria and Babylon, from certain cities in that region.
    They then converted to Judaism because that was the way of the land, some say because of fear, some say they combined it with idoltary from their original homeland.
    So according to the Rabbinic view, their arrival in Israel is very precisely dated, and in no case it is "thousands of years later".
    According to Rabbinic views, they 100% adopted some Jewish customs and beliefs, and this happened thousands of years ago, even if not 3650 years ago.
    Jewish oral law books such as the Mishnah are filled with references to the Kutim - an exonym of the Samaritans - and their close, but complicated relations with the Jews.
    An entire tractate about them deals with different Halakhic laws regarding them, customs and way of conduct mirroring much warmer relations between Jews and Kutim even back then, than with other Gentiles of the land of Israel.
    In earlier times the relations were politically tense, sometimes escalating. But the relationship back then has been very similar to what it is today - complicated, but respectful and very much intertwined one with the other.

      It’s very complicated. Unfortunately, the one with the most power usually gets his side heard regardless if it’s truth or not. Torah tells us not to side with the masses. The prophets also tell us that we’ve inherited lies. Makes me wonder what those lies are. Lying pen of the scribes.

      Not sure where you bring that from, not listening to the masses and the lies.
      In any case it's never that simple. For example, the Samaritan Torah shows clear signs of later editing, like Shechem and Gerizim mentioned in many places, some of the almost nonsensical or superflous. Some show clear dumbing down of the texts to solve conundrums.
      But in the same vein, it's written in a subset of a more ancient script, and it can represent older variants of the text.

      Many Xtians and people influenced by them will keep on adhering to the nonsense that the Jews are from the Judah tribe, while "the Israelites" descend from the other 11 tribes.
      We know much better -- In the Second Temple era, those Israelites who accepted the Prophets & Writings and acknowledged Jerusalem's status as the Chosen Place -- regardless of tribal affiliation and place of residence throughout the Land of Israel -- came to be known as "Jews", whereas a minority of Israelites, mainly in Samaria, adopted the belief that Mt. Gerizim is the Chosen Place and came to be known as "Samaritans", while rejecting the Prophets & Writings.
