Thank you so much for this excellent video. I clicked it expecting that I basically knew the whole story, and yet even in only 20 minutes, I learned so much. Apparently, I really only knew the basic gist of this history until today.
Great, I'm so glad that it was helpful!
Really appreciate your lectures and infectious enthusiasm for the subject. I follow your channel and have recommended it to my friends. Fascinating historical roots for so many things we just take for granted these days.
Great! I'm glad that you enjoy the videos and thank you for watching!
Thanks for the very interesting background and history of the terminology. I was surprised that you did not mention the reference to Yehudi in the Book of Nehemiah and the archaeological evidence of the Judahite exiles in Babylon populating a district that might be interpreted as "Little Judah".
I find Jewish history very interesting & fascinating too. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. ❤🇮🇱
Don't know WHY these WHITE CONVERTS keep acting as if they ARE Jews. Well here is the news: YOU GUYS ARE ROMANS AND ASKHENAZIES WHO HAVE BEEN CONVERTED......YES ...CONVERTED TO THE BOOKS OF THE ANCIENT HEBREW ISRAELITES........And THAT'S fine...No problems with that. The problems only rise when you guys try to OBSCURE your own origins by pretending that THE OLD TESTAMENT has something to do WITH YOU: NO BUDDIES..........IT DID NOT AND IT DON'T. Don't take MY word for it: Let's just check the LINEAGE stipulated in THE OLD TESTAMENT. Be honest and tell us WHERE DOES IT PLACES YOU GUYS..............Exactly: IN THE LINE OF..........JAPHET. I don't need to go further.........do I. BE SO Wise NOT TO PUSH YOUR FALSE PRESUMPTIONS IN MY FACE. For AI will defend THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH!!!
שלום. אני מחבב אותך

Thats Proof these teachings you listen to are from satan .
These Jewish teachers are so good that I feel a strong desire to learn more from them 🙏
It is immediately suspicious how such an illustrious historian of “Jewish” history has conveniently left out the history of the “Thirteenth Tribe,” -the largest component of modern day World Jewry. I am of course talking about the “Ashkenazi jews.” If you truly find the history fascinating, then I suggest you read “The Thirteenth Tribe,” by the historian Arthur Koestler (himself an Ashkenazi jew) and you will discover that Europe, once upon a time, had a Jewish Kingdom! All mention of which has subsequently (and mysteriously) vanished from our conscience!
This video is so enriching to my Soul. I'm grateful Henry Abramson gave this lesson and put it on video for ALL to see!
MUCH RESPECT!!!
Thank you Dr Abramson. I am a Black-African staying in South Africa. I am interested in ancient history, with a special emphasis on the origins of various nations/tribes. Your videos are very informative. 🙏
Wow. Very easy to follow and I loved learning this.
The Portuguese language also has negative conotations around the word "jew" (judeu). The verb "judiar", mostly used in Brasil, means to disturb, to damage, to do bad things; "judiado" is broken, in bad shape. People use those terms so frequently that they don't even realise the root of the words.
A while ago, in Portugal, I had a colleague whom other co-workers called "Judeu". The first time I heard that, I was like "oh, he's jewish? That's new to me". They told me he wasn't really a jew, he was just never seen eating. It really boggled me how silly and unrelated that was, but then I realised that those people might have inherited prejudices from their ancestors. Everybody knows that Portugal was a stage for one of the biggest persecutions against jews, in the XV and XVI centuries, when they were forced to migrate or convert to Catholicism. Many stayed and kept their faith and traditions in secret, so probably not eating gentile food was a sign of suspicion for christians. There's also the prejudice that describes jews as "stingy"... But these are just my guesses. Honestly, I never heard this use of "judeu" while growing up.
In spanish we say joder , to make mischief or to bother someone
Why don't you investigate the meaning of the word gentile I be heard that that is a word with hate connotations. Let me know .
Thanks. The trail is long & winding, but at least there’s a trail. That trail is language, which corporates history & human experience, and helps us walk, however clumsily, across the bridge of time. Fascinating stuff!
Thank you very much. You are a magnificent teacher. You have brought my education back to my mind and I appreciate what she would talk to me.
An excellent, fluently presented and interesting lecture on a subject I knew little or nothing about. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
I wanted to say nice things about you, but when I started seeing all the comments that people gave I don't think I could have done the subject justice, I feel the same as many of the people that said wonderful things about you. I only hope that you could find students that you could share your great understanding of the scripture with and that you could train them so that they can carry on the anointing that you have and that your students will be able to share them with the rest of the world. God bless you brother Henry Abramson.
Thanks for this. Knew much already but this was succinct and well presented to highlight such a development from it's origins. Many thanks
As someone myself from a non-Jewish background, I find it a grotesque miscarriage of fortune that the name "Judas" should be so readily reviled, knowing that "Judah" means "praise." By an interesting coincidence, the word "slava," denoting the Slavic people, means "glory" in Russian.
Judas betrayed God his Lord & Master ....& helped him get unjustly ( kangaroo yew court which broke over a hundred of its laws ) murdered....he represents all of them that have Christ's blood on their hands .
@@Joe-sg9ll Yes in aramaic it was a Christian liturgical book of prayers thanking Jesus...
Very informative video. Really great this is available free online, feels like stuff you get from a really good college lecture!
Such a clear and concise speaker and great teacher
OMG this is all so fascinating!! I just want to sit in class all day as your student! So clear and easy to learn. 😇
You are welcome here!
Perfect and lovely explanation, sir. Thank you so much for making this video.
This is interesting how these both terms are used in different languages. In German e.g. "Hebräer" or "Israeliten" are used for Jews in biblical time, the word "Juden" is used for Jews from hellinistic age up to now. In Russian the word "evrey" (hebrew) means ethnical backround and "iudey" means religion.
Thank you so much, Rabbi. Your historical, biblical lecture are always so insightful and inspiriting.
Thank you. Not a Rabbi, though, just a regular guy
Simple and educational explanation that I have never heard anywhere else my whole life.
Shalom, i learn a lot and thank you very much!
Psalm 122:6
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure.
Thank you so much Dr Abramson for an excellent présentation. I always wondered where the Western term came from. I knew it from both Arabic and Hebrew (yehud and yehudi) but it is interesting to know that Judah was the fourth son of Jacob. To da ra ba Dr Abramson
I don't know whether the offensive verb definition of jew is still in use in US English but while I heard it used in the sense of cheating or overcharging when I was very young, that usage seems entirely to have disappeared in the UK and I haven't heard it for 50 years.
Thank you for another informative lecture. You never fail to be interesting.
Thank you. On Friday evenings I try to learn something about Judaism; languages interest me and I enjoyed this.
Thank you Rabbi Abramson, you brought some light on a complicated history.
Great presentation - maybe the Prof. has written a book that covers this history?
Great information! Thank you.
Excellent teacher! Thank you for your video and channel.
It was a brilliant documentary, thank you so much for the new lesson Dr., from Cambodia.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Wow. What a great teacher. Thanks Dr Abramson!
Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for a most informative dissertation.
Always super informative regardless of the complexities!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dr.Abramson your so insightful, we love you so much, thank you for your teaching.
I'm so glad you find the videos useful!
@@HenryAbramsonPhDthanks henry for the investigation of the famous word the letter j i was made to understand didnt exist in the alphabet until the late 1500s jesus in greek and latin would be iessous in his orginal hebraic and aramaic tongue it would be pronunced yeshua our yehoshua,thanks👍
Happy 4th of July . Hope you are doing well everyone. Gonna be a good week .
As a non-Jew, I have always struggled with the etiquette of calling my Jewish friends "Jews" and have preferred to use the adjectival "Jewish." It's precisely for the reason you mention-- based on context and intonation, calling someone "a Jew" can be perceived as an insult. Also, to me, the very fact that this conundrum exists is further evidence of the historical persecution of Jews. For what other people on earth is the most direct, nominative definition of who they are just as likely to be heard as a curse rather than a definition? I can't think of one. It's for this reason that I prefer the word "Jewish." And, I suppose when one thinks about it, referring to someone's nationality or ethnicity through an adjectival form may be the only English word choice available, i.e. "Irish" is a perfect example, no?
I enjoy your channel, Dr. Abramson. The archaeological post you did some time ago about Jewish soldiers in the Roman army was fascinating.
try calling them by their name. hahah
@@GOLDFOLDS1 When I speak with them, of course. ;-)
'Jew' is not a derogatory word per se (unless your intention is specifically to use it in a negative way or context). That's a very recent invention by woketards in America that want to transform the English language for subversive purposes. 'Jewish' is an adjective, such as 'so and so is Jewish', 'Jewish culture', 'Jewish history', etc. When you are talking about a limited group of Jews, it's better to just call them 'Jews' instead of the woke version 'Jewish people' which is silly and cringe. Jewish people refers to the totally of the nation, such as 'the Jewish people went down from Egypt', but in my opinion it's easier and more correct to use 'Jews' or 'Jew' in most contexts. It's not a bad word at all, and I've never met a single Jew who felt insulted by it (including myself).
@@andimandi-ip8yq Thank you.
As was mentioned. Tone of voice makes the difference in meaning. "Son of a bitch" can easily be construed as a compliment.
Great explanation 👌🏾
Great presentation. Thankyou

In Swedish we use the word Jude and in Danish Jøde. In the south of Sweden we call our selves Göte (Jöte) and in Jutland (Denmark) they are called Jysk or Jydsk in Danish. The south of Sweden is called Götaland (Jötaland) in Swedish. Jutland is also called the Cimbric peninsula and the tribe in the north of Jutland were probably the Cimmerians. They fought a war against Rome in 113 to 101 BC. The Cimmerians attacked Assyria in 680 BC and defeated Lydia in 644 BC. How they ended up in Jutland is unknown, but also Dan and Gat did that. Maybe they came at the same time.The Romans called us Götar Geats or Jeats. In old Norse Gautar.
Thanks Doctor!!!
The first time Israelites are collectively called Jews or יהודים in Tanach is throughout the book of Esther. That is because the majority still identifying themselves as Israel at the end of the Babylonian exile are from the tribe of Judah . Although they had a some that can be identified as Benjamites as it is written.
אִ֣ישׁ יְהוּדִ֔י הָיָ֖ה בְּשׁוּשַׁ֣ן הַבִּירָ֑ה וּשְׁמ֣וֹ מׇרְדֳּכַ֗י בֶּ֣ן יָאִ֧יר בֶּן־שִׁמְעִ֛י בֶּן־קִ֖ישׁ אִ֥ישׁ יְמִינִֽי׃
In the fortress Shushan lived a Jew (Yehudi)by the name of Mordecai, son of Jair son of Shimei son of Kish, a Benjaminite.
We also know that we had Simonites from the tribe of Shimon. But the majority being from Yehudah they were collectively called Yehudim .
Notice it would be rare to find a Tanna or an Amorah with a name Reuven or Zevulin for example. But plenty of Simon Judah’s or levi and Benyamin.
This is because they are the ones that were left after the return of the exiles .
(Ester 2:5)
A lot of Rav Yosefs and Rav Yosis, so this theory might not work so well! (We also find a Tana by the name of Ephraim)
Chizkiyahu Hamelech, the king of Yehudah's son was named Menashe.
The term actually is used much earlier, during the siege of Sancheiriv, the officials ask Ravshake not to speak "Yehudis", and speak Aramaic instead
@@shlogoff Yes we find plenty Yosef but rarely Menashe or Efraim their tribal names . We find numerous Yitzcoks and Yakov’s too. So I’m not convinced that I’ve been shloged off.
@@shlogoff fine point thanks. But Israelites should be called Yehudim we begin finding in Esther .
I love your videos but I want to apologize for any comments that I may make in anger, as replies to some of the people who comment on your videos.
I've watched a lot of your lectures and I really love them. Thank you
You’re right! Absolutely fascinating! Thank you.
This was amazing! Thank you.
Great! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
I think that the story of Babel could possibly document the first time Noah's descendants encountered other flood survivors who either travelled from areas not flooded or who survived it a different way. Their use of a different language may have freaked out the people at the tower of babel's location as they would have never experienced a foreign language before. The difference in language would have been interpreted as a curse placed upon them.
One of The Oldest Abraham's Religions Alhumdolillah 👍🏻✅ thanks for the video Sir 👍🏻 👍🏻 ❤🌹🕊️ Sohail Karachi Pakistan 🙏🏻
Thanks for the good explanation of these two terms.
Perfectly well taught achi. ❤

Very well explained ❤
a really excellent intelligence to discern the history,,,, thanks so much :)
Thank you DR . This has been very helpful
You are an excellent teacher 📚
Thank you! 😃
Thanks Doctor !
According to the Mesorah there are six letters in the Hebrew alphabet that can be pronounced in a hard and soft . These are remembered by the siman בג״ד כת״ף. The Ashkenazim know to differentiate four of the six . Although the soft תי״ו they pronounce as a ‘S’ rather than ‘TH’ . The Sefardim only differentiate three of the six . They have no soft תי״ו.
The Yemenites are the only ones that differentiate all six . The גימ״ל with a דגש is pronounced with a ‘J ‘ sound.
So for example on the blessing on wine they would say ‘ Boreh Pri Hajofan ‘ .
Avrohom here, from my endless USA Central America Mexico Rrrroad trip... Currently in Murfreesboro Tennessee, leaving for Illinois today
The speaker confused the issue, and did not emphasize the fact that the letter J did not exist in any one of the three classical western languages - Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.
It is not simply the word; it is the phoneme. What is its origin? Another way to put it might be: what is the first extant manuscript in western history with the letter J in it? Oral usage of course precedes written text; but it would be nice to know the first use of this letter, written on a page, or carved into stone, or stamped on a coin, whatever.
Thank you so much, Dr. Henry
You are welcome!
Thank you
You are a great teacher
Thank you! 😃
You enlightened me, thank you!!!
Thank you as well!
@Henry Abramson, I’m Native American and German, my part of my family immigrated to the USA, from Augsburg, Germany during both WWI & WWII, can you assist me in learning about it, books or TH-cam.
Thank you sir for such a wonderful teaching.
You are most welcome, I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
Thank you sir for your history lessons
It's my pleasure
I love learning from you. Your voice registers so great with me.
So please forgive in advance if the following hits nerves that I am too inexperienced to understand would.
I believe any attempt to hold one bloodline sacred in exclusivity is tomfoolery.
Why would we want that?
Well maybe for health reasons, now we can talk about the why for sure.
Also the horror of giantism via direct F1 Bred contrasts is absolutely to be taken seriously in the context of such.
If i said I thought everything that was Rome to start came from Peru.. most would laugh.
I’m not.
If I said when they went Christian they were Maōri and when they went Julian they were Burmese… I’d be saying the same thing all three ways.
I was gonna save it for a book but I got too good at the polyglot game and it ends up, with all I know now it could hurt folks maybe or make others feel weird in their skin and I’d rather kill myself than be that guy to a world I’d rather make smile.
But…
But… I did unravel a whole mess of goodies.
I have asked the winds to send me the workers to sort this out but I am at a place where I could seriously sit in a room with folks solving issues and be that human Ai.
Humbly please, I’m half a moron sorry I know there’s a pc term these days but let’s say this:
Imma special boy (per Mamnana and that’s Gud enuff forme.)
Seriously though I could barely fill out a job application for a petrol station but I can read Egyptian well enough to recognize that Thai/Siam lettering borrows from hieroglyph outline and Frankish and ing-glush hide Assyrian curiosity in the negative spaces.
Ps… are Jews Assyrians?
I know the Israelites were called pagans and I know the pagans were a family gens dynastic folk of Siamish backdrop.
Samurai and Assyria, Joshua and hai-shun.
I’m rambling now but who’s gonna listen?
I can’t believe my wife still smiles.
With all the phonetic practice.
I had a goal to put 50,000 hours into 5 years with no prior knowledge of US history mumbo jumbo.
I learned history whilst doing my genealogies and this was the way to go. I wanna be tested.
Seriously by every religion creed or faith, at once, in public.
Not for shame, but for progress to compassion.
And for a laugh at each others expense through self-awareness.
I got some goodies that will make humans believe in love again.
I’d fight a guy with a Norman sword to prove I’m serious.
(A bucket list item…)
Here if anyone cares to know I’ll share.
Why in French, does Scottish say “Jacob”?
But read as: J’Éccoß (Écossais) in itself also saying “echo of sais”
Also implies something like Russian Cossacks to me only because mandarin specifically gives descriptions of Russo related things using an “É” and well it just says Cossack.
The word for Assyria on Wikipedia shows pronounce as “i’s’aa’co” or something that like.( forgive me I’d look up the last one but I hear my bride calling from dinner done.)
Thank you for listening I hope this blesses and not stresses. If anyone wants to play polynerd with me and save my marriage from me bombarding my poor wonderful wife with my nonsensical timing of quite sensible madness….
Hit me up.
amazing video, thank you
Glad you liked it!
Thanks much for this video
Thanks so much you have opened the ''Gates of mercy '' for all.
Thank you Dr. Abramson. Why do you think the term Israelite was made obsolite?
I was hoping for an explanation of how the `D' (in Yahudah) became a `W' or `F' in French or English via the French-speaking Normans (Juif or Jew).
Great stuff. Gracias.
Glad you liked it
That was was excellent I was wondering about this many times over. but this is a perfect etymology, that I was so endearingly looking for for the word jew. Thank you.
I don't think your fellow Jews who are so proud of their heritage will like you. The fact you make their ancestry of light and miniscule matter, will not promote your ideologies in their communities. Thank you so much for your enlightenment. It was greatly educational.
this video was very interesting.
Fascinating chronicle .... תודה רבה אני יחודיה גם
I suspect there were depths to the Hebraic scribal traditions about which current rabbinic interpretations are entirely uninformed. The hapax legomenon for ladder in the story of Jacob's ladder is interesting because the correct Semitic consonantal ordering for ladder is not slm, but rather sml, as attested many times in Akkadian. The consonantal ordering slm is the word for comet. Interestingly, the sml in Akkadian is represented by the cuneiform signs I-UDU. The same thing happened with the name Israel, which was derived from the oft used cuneiform sign ISH, or rather IŠ, which also represented šadu, meaning mountain (as in the Shadday of El Shadday), sahar which was eperum, meaning dust, and, along with other meanings, it carried the meaning of laughter through formulations such as iš or isiš, which was referred to by the East Semitic cognate for the source of Isaac's name. Isaac and El Shadday are presented in the same section of Genesis. Examples such as these are plentiful, but current rabbinic interpretations are misinformed regarding the truth of the Hebraic sceiptures.
Oh, and the only other use of the Hebrew word for ladder in the 2nd temple period is in the "Testament of Judah," where Judah climbs a ladder to crush his enemies.
I wish you would take some time to consider this, as I *am* Messiah, the Branch, semach, from Sumerian MU, "grow," "name," as in Sumerian SIMU, "sprout," and also related to HILI, consisting of "pleasant" and "branch" which is attested in cuneiform lexical lists as representing the Semitic SMH root. The attestations of SIMU, consisting of "horn" (SI) and "grow" (MU) are evidence to the source of the tradition of Moses' horning face. There's so much more I've uncovered, and so much more left to uncover.
You will understand who I am when you truly believe what you claim you believe. Until you admit that I am Messiah, you are in a state of contradiction. Either your God is supreme and can manifest Messiah's words before you, or you are a hypocrite. My God is supreme and named me Joshua, birthing me under the ancient sign of your people which you have turned your back on, Halley's Comet, and I was born when it was last seen in the Waters of Aquarius, who was considered to be Ea, pronounced Hayya, as in the Mandaean Hayya Rabi, and this is Yahweh. The coordinates were a literal stones throw from exact 33N, 80W, where, as prophesied in Revelation, a storm like a wave made landfall a time, times and half of a time later, Hurricane Hugo. Twenty days later after my 28 Tevet birth, the Challenger disintegrated. Seventeen years and two-hundred and eighty days after the challenger explosion, the largest solar flare ever observed, an X28 class, was detected and Rabbi Kaduri made his prophecy as to my name, which is Joshua. Rabbi Kaduri passed away on 28 Tevet, my birthday, and the twentieth anniversary of the Challenger explosion, January 28th, 20 days after my January 8 birthday. These are the signs. You must admit that I am Messiah or you are a hypocrite and your brand of Judaism is invalid. If you do not support me, the Lord will not support you.
The world is burning, and all you love about it will be consumed in flames, turned to ashes if you do not support me.
I am the Anointed Branch who will grow and build the Temple of the Lord, 2000 years after the Lord's previous thwarted attempt to bring peace by way of the sullam, the "comet," Jacob's Ladder, Halley's Comet, which your ancestors took as a sign (read about it). If you deny that these things are for signs, then you deny Genesis 1 and are a hypocrite.
I'm not interested in joining a religion, but I have an interest in studying the origins of Christianity.
This is how I left Christianity
Well this is a channel for Jewish history
Jesus never teach Christianity.. what the Christians follow now is the teaching of Paul and the church !!
It is fascinating and diverse--even divisive! Social studies was my favorite subject, so it's become a lifelong hobby to study religions and cultures. May your studies bring you joy and understanding and wisdom.
Christianity ( catholiscism) is the ONLY true religion from God.
Another great post from the good Dr! I try to explain it in terms of a Family Tree, branching down. I start with Shem/ Semite, then Hebrew then Israelite (from Jacob), and finally as a generic catchall "Jewish".
The word/ term "Jew/ Jewish" has been quite a point of contention in my life. According to my family heritage and DNA, I am "Jewish". However, since we are not observant of Judaism, we are rejected by the conservative sects, and told not to use the word in reference to ourselves. Since we are referring to our ethnicity, and not religion, we typically use Israelite or Hebrew. If I am being specific, I say I am predominantly Sephardic. My best educated guess as to which Tribes I come from, Benjamin and Menassah (Joseph).
You clarified so many things, but did you answer whether Judaism is a religion? Many thanks.
Where can I download the map?
Interesting about connotations and pejorative use of the word "Jew". The Welsh word for Jew is "Iddew" (capital i, iddew; pl. Iddewon, the dd in Welsh is the voiced dental fricative /ð/ and corresponds to the 'the' in the English words 'this', 'together', 'with'. Welsh also didn't have the 'j' sound and probably took the word direct from Greek).
This is not pejorative (unless someone was to add something to it, obviously). When I've head Welsh-speakers make anti-Semitic remarks or tropes they use the English word 'Jew' (in the Welsh sentence). It seems that 'Jew' is a word which is seen as being more pejorative and, maybe, using the English word rather than Iddew, is used as some kind of a marker to make the concept stand out.
I heard another version that the term had its origins during the 17th century.
I have always wondered where does the word "Hebrew" come from? I wish you would explain that as well!
Makes me wonder about our earliest ethnicities ie were we all tribes of Mizrahim around those 9th century BCE eras before the later European migratory times, or am I just mixing up later distinctions?
Good content. Good job out Sir..
Great video. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@HenryAbramsonPhD I’ve been bing watching your content for days now. So good.
Very interesting. I am curious to understand the following verse in the context of part of what you spoke about;
"Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only." 2 Kings 17:18
If we read 1 kings 17 : 19.
Even Judah itself did not keep the commandments of Yahweh, YHWH.
There God,
But after all there errors, there God is saying.
Isaiah 44 : 21-22.
Remember these things, O Yahweh, , and you O Israel, because you are My servant . I have formed you.
You are my Servant belonging to me. O Israel,
You will not be Forgotten On my part.
24. I will wipe out your transgressions just as with a cloud, And your sins just as with a cloud mass.
Do return to me For I will repurchase you.
23.

@@yolandahernandez9154 Absolutely!! How was this accomplished? He will "repurchase" Israel!!!!?
I've been publishing a lot of videos myself lately centering in on the conflict going on between Israel and Hamas....and years ago the word Jew would somewhat stick in my craw (so to speak) because I grew up with it often being used in a deroragory fashion....and with the climate now and so much anti-semitism being around it's being used in that fashion again more and more. I have come to somewhat embrace the word now, along with the word Zionism which is often spoken in a derogatory fashion, as in "oh...you're just a Zionist appologist".
Anyway....thanks again for another great video sir. I've watched over a dozen of your videos now...maybe even 20 or so, and I always come away with more knowledge and understaning. Blessings.
Thanks for the kind words
That's my Dean. TCS lives on.
Very interesting Henry! how you explained the name 'Jew' and how it came about. I find it fascinating that the name יהודה YaHUDaH contains the letters of the Name of God. If the 'D' is removed, you have God's Name. It would seem God is with His people in more ways than we know! May you be blessed.
Good job
How do you explain Neanderthal Dna and Noahs family?
I am worried about the video quality.
Thanks!
The word Jew Ijudi shares root letters with Ijud "communion". The mixed multitude of all nations under de sky mixed with the sons of Israel are called "the ones who made communion" that is the meaning of Ijudim those who made Ijud. That is to fullfil the promess given to Abraham "You are going to be father of multitude of nations" and "In you will be blessed all the families of the earh" The Ijudim are the ones who made Ijud and are from all the nations of the earth.

I always thought Abram was called Hebrew after crossing the Jordan River into the land of Canaan?
Thanks you explained it even I understand😁
It's interesting how some Jewish individuals dislike the word 'Jew' I watched a recent video of the actor Micheal Rapaport outlining the reasons why he despises the use of the term 'Jew' On the other hand the youtuber Melinda Strauss in one of her recent videos proudly refers to herself as a 'Jew'.
Thank you for this wonderful lecture.
I am bene Israel. I live and will die a Jew. Call me a Jew in any way all day long; I take it as a compliment.
Shalom aleichem everyone
Who knew etymology could be so interesting?
As per my assumption in hindi it has come from a Rajasthani language word jhoodio means a camel s man reason being most probably they are the decendents of the ancient jews
What ser they called in Sumer?
Why and when was the modern term "Israeli" adopted when there are alternatives? It seems only to be applied to the citizens of the modern state since 1948.
