JEWS ( The essence of the faith) : * If you want to sound like a expert, dont call the Hebrew Bible the Old Testament. The Old Testament is a Christian term based on the idea that there is a New Testament that supersedes the Hebrew Bible. Jews prefer to call their Bible either the Hebrew Bible, or simply the Holy Scriptures. WHAT CHRISTIANS CALL the New Testament IS USUALLY REFFERED TO in Jewish settings as THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE ANOTHER INTERESTING DISCOVERY IS THAT ITS VERY DIFFICULT TO GO TO ANY SITE ON JEWS IN GOOGLE SEARCH ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews AT LAST GOOGLE DID HELP TO FIND OUT ABOUT JEWS : Origins : Origins of Judaism and Jewish history According to the Hebrew Bible, all Israelites descend from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Abraham was born in the Sumerian city of Ur Kaśdim, and migrated to Canaan (commonly known as the Land of Israel) with his family. Aristotle believed that the Jews came from India, where he said that they were known as the Kalani. Genetic studies on Jews show that most Jews worldwide bear a common genetic heritage which originates in the Middle East, and that they bear their strongest resemblance to the peoples of the Fertile Crescent. According to archaeologists, however, Israelite culture did not overtake the region, but rather grew out of Canaanite culture.
