    I'm 64, all my life I thought I was French. My "real" or so I thought father had nothing to do with us after he divorced my mother. My daughter did the DNA test and was contacted by someone that showed they matched. So I did a test and found this person to be my half-sister. So I'm 30%Ashkenazi & 25% Scottish 18% Baltic.
    I didn't get a chance to meet my real father as he died from cancer he got from the Navy. But now I have a new family to meet. I'm excited!!!

      Greeting, cousin! I am 74 and finally did a DNA test last year to settle a mystery I was aware of, but never much acted on it. I found out my father was not my father, DNA wise, and I was 30% Ashkenazi Jew, 28% Scottish and 28% Irish! 😮 some other small percentages of other cultures! I was able to meet a new set of cousins and a half brother, who proudly says “we are not half brothers, we are brothers!”

      It's forbidden for jew-ish Europeans to show their DNA results according to Israel laws
      Why?
      Watch the result of jew-ish Europeans
      Geneticists always classify jew-ish Europeans in European genetic pool
      But arabs and middle Eastern jews are in semitic genetic pool
      See the difference?
      So you can see which one is semitic people scientifically😂😅😊
      Arabs are Semitic people
      Arabic is semitic language
      Jew-ish Europeans genetically are Europeans
      Yiddish is German European language

    The Ashkenazi Jews did not comes from Eastern Europe. We are from the Rhineland region of North France and West Germany. The Ashkenazi only moved eastward into Slavic areas later. Yiddish is not a mixture of German dialects, it is based on Medieval High German infused with a small amount of Hebrew and Aramaic borrow words (and later some Slavic terms). Yiddish is a distinct language of it's own.

      Therefore you are wrong and you are repeating ignorance probably of BHI. Let me teach you. Ashkenaz the descendent of Gomer did go into Europe and settled there. The land that they settled became Germany. Ashkenaz is Hebrew for Germany since it was settled by Ashkenaz, but had nothing to do with the Israelites in the Middle East. Then during the Roman Empire several hundred thousand Israelites were taken as slaves to Rome and spread across Italy. After the Roman Empire fell the Israelites that were left were freed and traveled north into Germany, Ashkenaz. From there they branched out into Poland, Eastern Europe and Russia. There was a genetic bottleneck event while in Rome though. Ashkenazi Jews are descendants of four Israelite mothers that were in Rome. Genetic studies show this. There is also several hundred thousand Ashkenazi Jews that carry the Levite chromosome which they share with shafardic and even a small tribe of Ethiopian Jews. Genetic studies have shown what was historically known before - that Ashkenazi Jews are descendants from Israelites and share genetics with Jews that never settled in Europe, Jews from the Middle East and North Africa. Ashkenazi in the name is from the territory of Germany where these Israelites previously from Rome settled, and the land was called Ashkenaz before they arrived there after the fall of Rome.

As for yourself, It's important to note even though she denied her religion, she was still always a Jew. There is no way to leave the faith as it is both an ethnicity and a religion. This also means all her offsprings are completely Jewish (as the religion/Ethnicity passes exclusively through the maternal bloodline). All female descents will have passed the Jewishness to the next generation regardless of whom they married and or held membership in another faith. There are NO half or 1/4 Jews and the percentage of Jewish DNA is completely irrelevant as to whether or not you are a Jew. If your mother is a Jew, you are Jew.

The Ashkenazi Jews are the descendants of the Jews of The Diaspora of 70a.d..about the year 1000 Casimir the great of Poland invited the Ashkenazi to his land .This shows they moved west to East and not East to west.The Jews of Poland had a skill set that Casimir recognized.The Ashkenazi t were treated very well under his rulership.Sam Aranow has many videos on the subject of Ashkenazi Jews.

      Do you think that someone make your house, even though you have never seen them? The house is the evidence of the builder. Same with this universe. It had a beginning, therefore it had to have a cause. And that cause, is God. This universe could not have created itself.
      So do you think God cares about how we live? If He has given us morality so that we have set up a system of law with courts and judges, how much more would the supreme ruler of the universe demand justice?
      Have you ever lied, stolen the smallest thing or thought a rude thought? If these were the things God would judge us by, would He find us innocent or guilty? The answer? Guilty. Sinning against an infinite authority figure brings infinite punishment. Hell.
      So how can we stop going to hell? Does doing good deeds take away our sins? If I get a speeding ticket in the morning, then do 5bgood things, should the judge let me go free? No, the fine has to be paid.
      What about asking for forgives? If a criminal stands before a judge and says, I'm really sorry... Should the judge let him go free? No, because that would be corrupt. Justice has to be paid. God is merciful, but not so at the expense of justice.
      The only way we can go to heaven is if someone pays our hell punishment for us. Jesus lived a perfect sinless life and then took all of God's wrath for our sins upon Himself on the cross. Since jesus paid 100% of our sins, there is none left for us to pay. Our punishment has been paid and we get off scot free. Justice has been paid and Gods mercy has been upheld.
      Our good deeds don't save us. Nor do they contribute anything to our salvation. Jesus paid it all. Just acknow your sins, and accept this gift of Jesus Christ to go to heaven.

I wish I knew.. he did receive medals while in a panzer division which I feel conflicted about.. anyways he moved to Guatemala and met my great grandmother who was the daughter of a local banana plantation owner. They got married and got along well due to being catholic. He worked as a courier during the Guatemalan civil war and eventually saved up enough to move him and his family (my great grandmother, grandpa, and his siblings) to America. I’m very thankful.

      Can you explain please - I thought Jewish people traced there heritage to Abraham not to Noah.

      @@wescurtis257 Hi Wes! "Jews" is the post-exilic term for the Israelites. Abraham was the descendant of Noah's son Shem. God sent Abraham from the Ur of Chaldees to the land of Canaan where God made a covenant with him that God would give the land to Abraham's descendants and make them a great nation. The land of Israel was promised to Abraham's seed, so that is why the Jews speak of Abraham. Also, in Abraham, all the families of Earth are blessed. See Gen. 12:2,3 and Gen 15:18 and Gen. 9:9. Thank you for your question😃

      @@wescurtis257 Actually the Jewish people trace their descent from Abraham and his son Isaac who got the name Israel and the Muslims trace their descent to Abraham and his son Ishmael because before Abraham there were no Jews and no Muslims so descent from Noah and his sons do not count as Jews or Muslims.

    Finding Ashkenazi DNA in your family is not all hugs and kisses. My sister got sick with lung issues in her 50s. The Dr found stage 4 ovarian cancer . A not fun DNA test showed dominate founder effect BRCA-2 associated with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry . Only after this did we put two and two together. My paternal grandmother died of breast cancer at 32yrs old and my father died of pancreatic cancer. We are descendants of German Mennonites who migrated from the Ukraine to Kansas in the 1880s. But our DNA shows something different. We must have mixed with the neighboring Jewish population in Ukraine. I got my DNA tested and I also showed the mutation BRCA-2. I have had to have a total hysterectomy and bilateral mastectomy. My sister died 2yr ago just at the start of the COVID shut down so I wasn't able to be with her. Her funeral was 10 people grave side. Very sad. I live every day with the scars of this ancestry. If any body is Jewish I most certainly am.

      Harriett, that is interesting. The only other people (from my understanding) that have was high incidence if BRCA-2 mutation are the Scandinavians. I could be wrong. That doesn't mean that your family doesn't have Ashkenazi genetics, I'm just pointing this out. DNA test can indicate your ancestry though. It would indicate Ashkenazi (as well as others) as mine did.

      I too had ovarian cancer but escaped breast cancer but runs in our family. I am almost 25% Ashkenazi so perhaps that contributed to my ovarian cancer now gone. Bless you for what you went through.
