    I have Berjar( Behar) on my Mom's side and Carvajal on my Dad's. Carvajals are from Portugal as Carvalho means oak tree and has no meaning in Spanish.( We are from Latin America and I always knew that my Mom's grandfather was Jewish because he kept the Sabbath and told my Mom that she needed to go to her mother's "church" because she was a Catholic through her Mom and grandmother. So my question was always and "what the heck would that make you, grandpa"? It was never discussed in our homes but interestingly either was "Jesus").

    My dad's mom came from Poland to America around the 1890s. Her maiden name was Jacobinski. She married a man whose last name was Hoholek, my grandfather. Myvgrandparents practiced Catholicism. Did Jews who came through Ellis Island sometimes change their religious affiliation to fit into their new homeland - like Jewish to Catholic? Jacob means "Israel," so I was wondering if Jacobinski could have some Jewish origins. Thank you for your video sir. Cindy

    There are only TWO ways you are a Jew, according to HALACHAH (Jewish Law):
    1. Your mother is/was a Jew, her mother was a Jew, etc., going back to Sinai . Even if your father is/was a Jew, if your MOTHER isn't/wasn't, you are NOT a Jew.
    2. You underwent a conversion to Judaism according to Torah/Halacha. That means that if you converted Reform, Conservative, Reconstructionist, "self-identify," or anything other than a Torah conversion, your conversion was not valid.
    But if you had a valid, Halachic conversion, you are considered as much a Jew as any Jew-by-birth.
    Also if you are a valid Jew, even if you "convert" to another religion, or proclaim yourself an atheist or yogi or Hindu or Buddhist or Jihadist Islamist or Christian or Wiccan or Satanist, or whatever, you are still a JEW AND HAVE A Jewish soul. And you will be judged accordingly in the Next World.
    You may have a DNA test that shows you have "Jewish blood," but unless the DNA came from your MOTHER's side, and she is/was a Jew, you're not a Jew.

    This video clip is so uninformative, as there is so much info. that is left out and that is not entirely correct. Hardly anything of substance was said about the Sephardic Jews of Portugal. When they were expelled from Spain in 1492, approx. 120,000 crossed over into Portugal and joined an estimated 30,000 Jews that had already been living in Portugal since the 2nd destruction of the temple in Jerusalem in 70 a.d. The Portuguese Jews had to adopt surnames in 1497. The surnames were largely of patronymic, occupational, and geographic origin. But they also adopted many surnames derived from nature as in names of: trees, fruit, vegetables, plants, animals, rivers, mountains, i.e., pereira (pear tree), Oliveira (olive tree), Pimentel (pepper field also growers/seller of pepper), cordeiro (sheep), Moreira (berry bush), Ribeiro (small river), monte (mountain), Carvalho (oak tree), Cardozo (thorny bush) etc., etc. Many of these kinds of surnames already belonged to the Sephardic Jews before the forced surname adoption decree, but of original spellings. For example, many Jews already had the name of Soaretz before the forced adoptions, but modified it to Soares. There were Jewish surnames like Ben Cadosh which later morphed into Cardoso. Another good example is 'Amoarim' which later became 'Amorim' which means teacher in Hebrew. There is also 'Mennaseh' which became 'Menezes'. And it goes on and on like this for hundreds of Portuguese surnames which were actually Jewish in origin before the surname adoptions in 1497. For example, my surname is Pimentel. How could Pimentel have been adopted there is evidence that some Jews were already in possession of this surname 200 years before the forced surname adoptions in 1497? It doesn't add up. And there are hundreds of other surname examples like this. Another good example is the Oliveira surname. The Old Testament mentions the tribe of Asher that had an olive tree on their ancient 'emblem' , the same olive tree that is on the modern day Oliveira coatt of arms. If this is not compelling enough, nothing ever will be. In ancient Israel there was a place called 'Perea', and so from that we got 'Pereira' - for Jews with this surname it was a reminder of their ancient homeland. I have been researching Sephardic surnames for over 15 years. People say that evidence is not there, but in fact it is if you dig deeply enough and put the pieces of the puzzle together. It's very hard work, but it can be done. AdeusShalom
