Re: Is The Israel Of 1948 The Same Israel In The Bible? by Mcdikov(m): 7:39pm On Jun 19, 2025
Yes.

Jews were scattered all over the planet. After Roman destruction of the Holy land most Jews immigrant to various parts of the world. Europe, African, Asia and Arab Nations. If you check through out history all this places mentioned had Jewish populations and they were recognized as Jews.

During WW2 we saw how the Nazi rounded up the Jews, most flee to other European countries and were rejected, others ran to America.

Now, it begs the question, if these people weren't Jews, why did Hitler and his Nazi associate murder them. Or are we to believe that Hitler murder Europeans during the Holocaust. Mind you about 6 million Jews died during this period. Imagine the number.

Check Arab populations prior to 1948 and you'll clearly see the Jewish population. We had Jews in Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Morocco, Syria, Lebanon, even Ethiopia. These Jews have lived in these places for hundreds of years. So should we now call them Arabs. Same can be said for Jews in Europe.

Although, they were in Europe for centuries, the Jews were never really accepted as Europeans, hence, the term European Jews which clearly indicates their identity as opposed to Europeans.

So, when Israel was founded in 1948, it was only natural for this people to return back to their ancestry lands.

Moreover, going by scriptures, it is written that the Jews will be scattered all over the earth and God will bring them back to their land. Whether you accept it or not. That prophecy has been fulfilled.

The jews hate Christians?

But same jews have been welcoming thousands of Christians yearly,taking them round ancient historical sites like where jesus was born.

Abeg talk another thing.
Purley for monetary purposes. They see Christians as fools willing to pay for these. I'm Christian but the way. And have a somewhat positive disposition to the State of Israel. But I'm not unaware that the average Israeli only see Christian pilgrims as cash cows. A Christian is more likely to get a cooking pot or plate from a Muslim than from a jew while in the State of Israel

The Answer is NO. Who is Jesus to the Jews?
Jews believe Jesus did not fulfill messianic prophecies that establish the criteria for the coming of the Messiah. Judaism does not accept Jesus as a divine being, an intermediary between humans and God, a messiah, or holy.

Do Jews celebrate Christmas?

No, Jews generally do not celebrate Christmas as it is a Christian holiday centered around the birth of Jesus, whom they do not consider the Messiah. While some intermarried Jewish families may have Christmas trees or participate in some secular aspects of the holiday, most Jewish people do not observe Christmas as a religious or cultural holiday.

How are Jews different from Christians?
AI Overview

Judaism and Christianity share a common heritage in the Hebrew Bible (also known as the Old Testament), but their core beliefs differ significantly, particularly regarding the figure of Jesus. Christians believe Jesus is the Messiah and the Son of God, a divine being who atoned for humanity's sins through his sacrifice and resurrection. Jews, on the other hand, view Jesus as a prophet but not the Messiah and do not believe in his divinity.

Some human beings wrote these books Bible , Quran and claimed they are the word of God.

They then imposed this on their populations by force for centuries killing anyone who disagreed and we are here today in Nigeria saying they are the word of God

A God that had nothing to do with black African people
Think about it!

What was written about Israel in a book many people claim is written by men, what is happening now concerning Israel, the Christian belief, the God that the Christians worship, shouldn't common sense tell you that there must be more than a pinch of truth there?

Just think!

Before you can claim that GOD has nothing to do with Black African people, we need to ask you if you believe that there is actually a God that creates the heavens and the earth?

The long and short of it is that SOME PEOPLE returned in 1948 claiming that their ancestors were the HEBREWS OF THE BIBLE

Two things
1. We do not know whether their claim is true
2. Even if it is true does that entitle them to ask those living there to pack out and should that principle apply everywhere


The main problem our people have today is Christianity and Islam . The worst things that happened to black people even worse that the slave trade

Funnily I do not get how being a Christian would make one sympathize with the Israelis who absolutely reject Christianity At least Muslims acknowledge their Jesus as a Prophet whilst Jews see him as a fraud

All 3 religions are not the business of black Africans
Atimes you come online and speak as if you're the most intelligent and logical whereas you know little of wat u spew our here.

It's a known fact that the Jews were persecuted for centuries,so they were dispersed. It's this persecution that made the Europeans started the crusades so as to win back the holy land of Israel from the jihadists. After many attenpts to resettle them which failed,they were told to resettle in Europe. So that's why they scattered all over Europe in the 20th century. They resettled back to Israel after a lot of lobbying and miraculous events. So they're the real occupiers of the land

Tourism is a source of revenue for the host country,so they can't reject them.

There are Muslims that marry Christians,as this isn't against Islamic doctrine.

A practicing Jew will never marry a Christian

It is not, neither do they claim it is. And people don't know this!

Their OFFICIAL position is that the United nations (UN) gave them the land in 1948. At no time have they claimed that a Yahweh gave them the land because, of course, they know they can't prove it.

Having said that, it would require a knowledge of history to unentangle oneself from the web of lies and cover-ups before you understand their real history and where they originated.

The way to understand who they are is understand the difference between:-
(1) the children of God (mythology call them Israel)
(2) Hebrews
(3) Jews
(4) Hellenized Jews

Unfortunately, people don't understand the difference between the above, because once you do, you'll understand that they're not the same people written about in the so called "holy books"

Again, people don't know even as the Jews themselves clearly show below on their Wikipedia page that Israelites, Hebrew, and Jews are rather like their ancient relatives, and not themselves.

See below attachment but if you really want an in depth explanation, read the book: what is Satan? What is Lucifer? The biggest secret in the world. You can find a link to the book in one of my threads. Read the PDF version only. That's where you'll find the details

They seem pretty much the same to me, though current Israel is buying migrants from everywhere to increase their numbers, which the old Israel would not pollute their bloodline with.

They both drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before them and dispossess the inhabitants of the land.



Makes me think of an omo onilẹ asking for land rent on a house built on land his great great grandfather sold before his father was born.

The last verse does sound like a motivator for much of Israel's current actions.
deep truth especially the first paragraph

Don't mind them!.
Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon are all in the Bible, yet they only talk as if the land of Israel only came into existence in 1948.
They accept what the Bible says about the other countries, but not Israel.
Senseless hypocrites.

The combination of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Israel and a part of Egypt is what the Romans used to refer to as ''Palestine'', and not the set of Arabs who have now arrogated the name to themselves and claiming to be the owners of Judea and Samaria (the so called West Bank) and Jerusalem!
God bless u for this. Those Arabs after taken over Israel changed its city name to Arabic. They changed Judea to Jenin,changed Samaria changed Galilee to different Arabs names. Now Israel are back to claiming their land they said they're impostors. Imagine. They same way Fulanis changed hausas city to Fulani and changed they kings name to Seriki. Some people will just come online and be capping nonsense with confidence on matter they know nothing about

u are beating aimlessly about the bush, without answering the question. What has the question got to do with Jewish hatred for Christianity. Those mosques and Muslims in Israel are Palestinians who did not evacuate from Israel before the Jewish Arab war of 1948, today Isreal recognizes them as citizens and they enjoy the rights of citizenship which is a testament to how tolerant Israel is.

YOUR LOGIC IS DEFECTIVE.

I have watched many interviews of Jews Rabbi where the claim Islam is similar to their religion than Christianity because they both shared monotheistic believe unlike Christians trinity

where did u pull that one out from? The various archeological discoveries so far mede in the area presently called Israel attest to the facts that the present state of Israel is the area roughly occupied by the ancient Jewish kingdoms of Judea and Israel. There are still relics of temples and landmarks from bulilical times littered all over Israel.

The "Jews" from eastern Europe are Ashkenazi Jews and they are the majority.

Jews in northern Africa are called Mizrahim, these are the people that direct link to the land.

Ashkenazi Jews are converts are speak Yiddish, they have no trace to Israel of old. But they control all positions in Israel while discriminating against others.
