TODAY’S PALESTINIANS ARE NOT “AMALEK”,\u00a0BUT IN FACT THE DIRECT DESCENDANTS\u00a0OF THE BIBLICAL JUDEANS<\/p>\n

GROK 4–“Shlomo Sand’s The Invention of the Jewish People<\/em> (2008) argues that the concept of a unified Jewish people\u00a0with a continuous ethnic and historical identity is a modern construct, largely invented in the 19th century\u00a0to serve nationalist and Zionist agendas.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sand challenges the traditional narrative that Jews worldwide share a direct, unbroken lineage from the ancient Israelites. He argues that modern Jews are primarily descendants of various groups who converted to Judaism across the Middle East, North Africa, and Europe, rather than a single ethnic group exiled from ancient Judea. He emphasizes historical waves of proselytism, particularly during the Hellenistic period and among groups like the Khazars, a Turkic people who converted to Judaism in the early medieval period.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

In his 2008 book “The Invention of the Jewish People”<\/em>,<\/strong> Professor Shlomo Sand showed\u00a0that the Ancient Biblical Judeans were not “pure Hebrews”.<\/p>\n

Because Judaic Proselytism thrived in 150 BC until 1 AD, only about 25 percent of Ancient Judeans in Christ’s time were “pure Hebrews” observing Judaic customs (20 percent were members of the tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi, and 5 percent were “pure Hebrew” Samaritans who began as Israelites from the Northern Kingdom, then got deported by the Assyrians, but finally made their way back to what was now Roman Judea).<\/p>\n

But roughly 75 percent of Ancient Judeans in Christ’s time were non-Hebrews, who had converted, or had been forcibly converted, to Judaic customs. The subgroups in this bloc: 55 percent of Ancient Judeans were Canaanite Edomites (where Edom is shown in red in the following map:<\/p>\n

15 percent of Ancient Judeans were Arabic Ishmaelites; and 5 percent of Ancient Judeans were Canaanites of non-Edomite tribes who had not yet been driven out, as Joshua was told to do, in order to grab the Promised Land. So, 75 percent of Judeans were Canaanites or Arabs who followed Judaic customs, but were not actual Hebrews.<\/p>\n
