I was looking into something—I can’t recall what because this tab has been open in my browser for awhile—and I happened upon a discover.
Oh, I think I was looking up the origin of Yiddish. I found out it’s mostly a Germanic language like English and it borrows from a lot of other languages (like English) including ancient Hebrew (as best as it can be read. We do not know the original meaning of much of what we have in Hebrew of the Torah or the Old Testament. Originally Hebrew only contained consonants, words were unspaced, and it required someone skilled at reading and writing it to interpret the meaning of the it. In around the 10th century vowels were added to the original Hebrew text that many scholars think perverts the intended meaning of much of the text.) and Slavic languages.
The ancestors of these Ashkanzi Jews are the Scythians who gave the Near East and Persia so many problems. There has been a lot written about the Scythians.
There is a story about a Kingdom called Khazar that had a King who wanted to choose a new religion for his kingdom and arbitrarily chose Judaism for the official religion. I’m not sure how much of that is true because I’ve never seen any convincing verification of this but it serves to reason that a Caucasian people did not have an Indigenous African belief system originally. Somehow they must have adopted it.
In Ethiopia and parts of Sudan they still practice that old religion and the Ark of the Covenant is said by Ethiopians to be in Ethiopia and has been for as long as anyone can remember. The Ethiopian Bible is the most accurate to the original text and comprehensive in existence. It’s been kept faithfully for centuries. It was translated to Geez which is, exactly like Hebrew, a liturgical language.
