The origin and history of Jews

The real origin of Jews is the ancient Hebrews, belonging to a kind of Semitic people. They wandered in the grasslands of the Euphrates River valley in the third century BC/KLOC-0.

In mythology, the ancestral name of the Jews is Jacob, the son of Isaac and the grandson of Abraham (pronounced Ibrahim in Arabic), and later it was renamed Israel, which means "a man who wrestles with God". Moreover, because he hurt his hamstring while fighting God, Jews had to pick out his hamstring and throw it away when they slaughtered animals.

In fact, they are descended from the Hebrews. Their distant ancestors first lived near the Ur Empire of Sumerians, and later moved to Canaan. He had two sons, and the youngest son Isaac became the ancestor of the Jews. According to records, the descendants of Ishmael, the eldest son of an ordinary family, are Arabs. So Jews and Arabs are very close in primitive blood.

Historical residence of Jews

The United States and Israel are the main settlements of Jews. Before the founding of Israel, the proportion of Palestinian Arabs in Palestinian areas accounted for the vast majority, while Jews only accounted for 6% in 1948. Due to the war and the expulsion of the Israeli government, by 2009, Jews in Israel accounted for 76% of the total population, 19% were Arabs and 5% were others.

Because the birth rate of Jews is lower than that of Arabs, and Jews immigrated from Israel to Europe and America, the Israeli government is worried that Jews in Israel will no longer account for the majority of the population in the future.
