    Hey, it's Mayim, and I am SO EXCITED to look at my DNA results with all of you. I didn't even peek at them before this video, so you're getting my real, unfiltered reactions. Have you tried a DNA analysis before? Let's chat about it in the comments!

      Beth Johnstone Jesus was not a Jew, he was an Israelite which is very different. Israelites are the lineage and are not all Jews. Some are Christians, Muslims, Jews , pagans etc etc like any other people. They are from the line of prophet Isaac, the younger son of prophet Abraham. the word Jew arises centuries later from those who follow yehuda. Jesus didn't follow yehuda, he was a prophet of the one God. This narrative needs to stop

      @@BusyAngel9999 With all due respect you are talking out of ignorance. Of course Jesus was Jewish. Look at the history books. 2000 years ago, in the Land of Israel Herod, Jewish King of the Jews under the Roman occupiers, ordered a census of the Jews. ...
      Why do you think Mary and Joseph had to travel to Bethlehem when she was so heavily pregnant? It was because of the census.
      Everything Jesus does and teaches is Jewish - it's the disciples who change things AFTER his death - like getting rid of the rules of kashrut which Jesus will have observed meticulously). They did this so as to widen their newly invented religion, Christianity, to include other groups.
      The Children of Israel (who I guess you mean by Israelites) became a Jewish nation in the Land of Israel (formerly Canaan) a thousand years before Jesus so I assure you that he was pure and simply Jewish. You only have to look at the prayer he wrote - The Lord's Prayer to see it is one hundred per cent a transliterated version of the standard Jewish blessing.

    • @PamelaProPeace
      @PamelaProPeace Před 5 lety +81

      p.s. as for the name "Jew" it came from the Hebrew. Yehudah was one of the Kingdoms of Israel, where the Israelites lived - this dates to a thousand years before Jesus, so I promise you he too was a Yehudi. (Even as they spin their web of lies about being native to the land of the Jews - the "Palestinians" reaffirm this fact - the Arabic for Jew is YAHUD!!!)

    • @BusyAngel9999
      @BusyAngel9999 Před 5 lety +13

      he was a prophet of god, the messiah, his prophethood is unquestionable. if the yehudis and what they were following was correct and what god revealed then why was jesus tasked to come to these very people and if he was a jew himself? clearly they were not following gods plan and clearly he was not jewish, he was a prophet of the one god. clearly the jews of the time and the society were wrong and they needed guidance, therefore jesus came. and thats why jews havent been in the holy land for centuries. the very purpose of prophets in the first place. the story of mary and joseph is not accepted by all, many believe mary gave birth by herself (no joseph and no travel) and presented baby jesus to the people as prophet of god when he spoke.
      btw the palestinians are the original israelites and more semitic than some 'israelis' and are very much native to the land, thats why god has protected them there for as long as he has-just like he promised
      god has alos promised if those israelites who spread terror and force people out of their land and forget the promise they made to god and god made to them, that he would make sure punishmet comes to them. this fact conveniantly gets left out

      Not arguing with the comment about Venice, but broadly speaking most Jews in Italy are Sephardic. Most Sephardim did not segregate themselves from non-Jews unless there was a specific reason. My general impression is that Sephardim didn't object as much to mixed marriages as long as the kids were raised Jewish. Also possible is that some of your Sephardic ancestors converted to christianity at some point.

    I am adopted and because of certain laws I have been prevented from tracking down birth family to get medical/genetic/bio history, so I took the 23andMe test. I knew enough about my natural history to know that there was a strong strong European component, so I had a hunch that I would probably encounter a smidgen of Ashkenazi in my genetic makeup. The test came back at a whopping 25%!!! I was so thrilled, but even more Mayim, what you said about seeing this information and understanding how it connects you to so much, even if there had only been a small amount in your DNA, is exactly how I felt as an adopted person. It helped me feel like I was part of something greater and more special.

    I'm adopted so did an Ancestry DNA test to see if I really am Irish and Welsh, as I had been told by my parents. Not only did I find out my DNA percentages (37% Irish/Scottish, 67% English, Welsh and NW European, 2% Norwegian), more importantly I now have two new younger sisters I didn't know existed (I have half brothers too but they don't know about us). Our birth mother had put Disclosure Vetoes on our three files when she put us up for adoption, so lifelong questions were finally answered . For those uncomfortable with taking the test -- don't -- but know we are already aware of potential risks and have done it because the potential rewards greatly outweigh the potential for bad. I'm spending my first birthday ever with one of my new sisters in November -- I couldn't ask for a better 60th birthday present :)

    Sorry my english is bad, but I would like to tell you this special story about my family and me: for many years I don't know where am I from. My parents also they did not know where their are came from or their grandparents or their parents. I remember I was so sad and I feel some hurt, because I don't know who they are my grandparents or my family members. 4 years ago I started researching to my family. And now I know my grandma have 90% Ashkenazi Jewish, and my Grandpa 80% indigenous Quechua (from Perú), and Huaorani (from Ecuador, Napo River, Yasuní National Park, Amazonia)!!! And his great granparents are full blooded tribal indigenous persons. And the ironic, and very touchable in this story, that these two cultures were present throughout my life. Oh and now I'm an archaeologist student who researching Pre-columbian artifacts...

I found a 1-3% Sephardic Jewishness, and a bunch of Spanish, Irish, English, and a dash of Belgian, Scandinavian, Italian, and West African. I would've expected some Sephardi since my Spanish ancestors apparently had to leave in a hurry with the Inquisition being inquisitive, perhaps because they didn't purchase enough pork at the market. Who knows? But those were rough times to be Jewish. The amount of English was the biggest surprise. I never identified with England and thought I couldn't be from there, but as it turns out, I got a bunch of Brit. I'm very happy with the Italian and West African bits.

This was an ANCIENT practice used to prevent blood pooling (creating clots and other problems) in the infant's penis. Even then, there were conditions in which it was thought to be safer to use a sponge.
      These days circumcisions must be carried out by a trained medical professional with appropriate equipment. You may disagree with circumcision of an infant, and you of course have every right to. There is a strong case against it.

      Found that out about a relative. That the person in my family who everyone thinks is his father, isn’t his father. Don’t know the story about what happened, and I won’t even think to ask, but it was a very shocking thing to learn.
