Jewish Rabbinical Court Rules Igbos Are Israelites by EmmaJnr1: 5:31pm On Mar 12, 2022 |
ON the 14th day of January 2022 [12 Shebat 5782], the Jewish Rabbinate of the Obadayah Alliance [Dayan Jacob de Oliveira, Dayan Eliezer Tabor, Dayan Yehonatan Elazar-DeMota, Rabbi Hananiah Cohen, and Rabbi Haim Ovadia] ruled that the Igbos of Nigeria are descendants of ancient Israelites. According to the Rabbinate, “the presence of Israelites along the Niger River had been known by Jewish authorities in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Lithuania, and Suriname. Rabbinic letters addressed to the Igbos by Chief rabbis: Dr. Solomon Hershel Lewin, David Meldola, and the Gaon of Vilna (Elijan Zalman), support the idea that there was contact between European Jewish communities and Igbo Israelites. All of the correspondence from the aforementioned rabbinic authorities address the Igbos as “brethren of the Children of Israel.” Accordingly, there is no doubt of their origins, nor of their halakhic status as Israelites.” According to the Rabbinate, while there is yet an exhaustive academic genetic study of the Igbos, the data of the majority of those who have reported their autosomal and y-chromosome DNA, supports that their ancestors migrated from the Levant Basin, sharing genetic links with Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews alike. The Rabbinate noted the fact that rabbinic authorities during the Songhai Empires were aware of Israelites in Igboland, which leads to the logical conclusion that they treated Igbos as Israelites. The final conclusion of the Obadya Alliance Rabbinate was that “Igbos are to be treated as Israelites, in every sense of the word, and also their priestly and Levite lineages should be upheld as valid.” The Rabbinate advised that upon the return of the Igbos to Omenana (what you do in the Land), they should be circumcised [if they hadn’t performed it already], say the sheheḥeyánu afterward, and partake in the kola nut ceremony with their brethren, as is customary among Igbos. This ruling may also trigger more scholars to do more research about Igbos, what they offered the world in the past, what they are offering the world now, and what they would offer the world in the future. As democracy is under assault, the Igbos are democratic to the core and stand out as the most culturally democratic ethnic entity globally. The world may have a look at the Igbo traditional system of government, which has survived despite many years of British rule and Nigeria’s deliberate marginalization. It is interesting that the Obadya Rabbinate addressed Igbos as Israelites, not as Jews. They also affirmed Omenana (what you do in the Land) as the authentic original religion of the children of Israel. http://hint-magazine.com/jewish-rabbinical-court-rules-igbos-are-israelites/?fbclid=IwAR0JZu2OsIQgmV_PA_zAR6DVUoeErC_dweKH0rDHd6TO2ScMOT3Ge81UeIE 5 Likes |

EmmaJnr1:Every so often another moro.n throws up this very embarrassing Igbos are Jewish nonsense. And each time , I want to throw up at the incredible level of ignorance, scientific illiteracy and level of self-deprication that conjures and latches on to this nonsense. My simple response to moro.ns that promote or believe this trash is that is if Igbos are genetically related to Jews, then the Igbos should also be genetically related to Arabs. Jews and Arabs are of the Semitic race. Therefore, an ancestral link to one is an ancestral link to the other. So, hurrah!! Igbos are Arabs. 3 Likes |

FACTS After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD, 1million Jews fled into Africa - Josephus (an ancient Jewish historian) When East Africa have accumulated huge numbers of Jewish migrants and can no more accommodate them, they began to migrate to the Niger River Areas. See “From Babylon to Timbuktu” Ancient Hebrews has been proven to be of mixed colors brown, dark, light skinned and red but were never Caucasian (white skin, blond hair and blue eyes) never After studying the book “from Babylon to Timbuktu” you will be constrained to make the following Conclusions: Most African tribes like the igbos, ibibio, the Bantu, Kanuri, Ashantis, some parts of Yoruba like the Egba, people etc could be the true descendants of ancient Israelites. One day we will discover how we have been lied to by the West. 4 Likes |

These group of fake jews in Igboland will go to any extent to deceive themselves that Igbos are of Jewish origin including bribing some corrupt Jewish Rabbi to make a favourable statement in that regardThese guys from a particular section of Igboland are desperate to force a new identity on the Igbos where they will be seen superior to others they are...Emeka Maduewesi,Remy Ilona,Francis Duru etc... |

EmmaJnr1: Seriously, you guys should stop this rubbish. You cannot keep bending a people's identity because of your low self esteem. What is so good about Israel that you are fighting too hard to beg for their acceptance. I am Igbo, nothing like Jewish Igbo. By the way, do you think the people called Igbo today have a common ancestry? If I were you, I will devote this energy into understanding who the Igbos are and not to create another identity for them. By the way, I want to comment on a Statement you posted: " As democracy is under assault, the Igbos are democratic to the core and stand out as the most culturally democratic ethnic entity globally. The world may have a look at the Igbo traditional system of government, which has survived despite many years of British rule and Nigeria’s deliberate marginalization" I think, if you believe the above, you should be worried about the emergence of Neo-Igbos we have today, who are everything but Igbo. Look at the Characters that call themselves IPOB. Please tell me what is exactly democratic about them. The true Igbos do not believe in comand and control, in one man emperor mentality or even bowing to anyone or this kind of hero worship. It should worry you that we are losing our Igboness, with people like you subsuming our identity under Jewish identity. Some others are marketing Biafra as a new identity at the detriment of our true identity. You guys should leave us in peace biko! 1 Like |
