Christians who believe the Ashkenazi's "official" origin story do so because they're drawn to official narratives, or perhaps they're naturally averse to "conspiracy theories." Or maybe they aren't aware that, to believe the official narrative, they have to accept that the Holy Bible is wrong on some very important historical details. If the Ashkenazi are named after Ashkenaz (which one would naturally presume), the grandson of Noah, then 80% of the Jews in the world - from Bibi Netanyahu to Ben Shapiro - aren't related to Abraham. So, they've adopted a different theory, and it requires believing in a lot of weird coincidences. The Ashkenazi official narrative is that a tiny group of Semitic Jews, descended in an unbroken biological line from the ancient Israelites of Palestine, survived the Roman destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, wandered into Rome, made their way through France, crossed the Alps, and settled in the Rhine Valley sometime around 1000 AD. But then - here is the part that requires the most imagination - they looked around at the territory and decided to name themselves after the region they settled in, which just coincidentally was already named after the ancestors of Ashkenaz, who had settled there centuries prior. That would be the first time in history that somebody would name themselves after the place - and after somebody else's ancestors - rather than their own. Weird, right? But it gets weirder. They then abandoned their Semitic language in favor of Yiddish, a German tongue with a Slavic influence and no Semitic structure, which is a strange thing for a people fiercely protective of their ethnic and religious identity to do with the language their ancestors allegedly spoke. Gets weirder. They then developed a suite of genetic founder mutations entirely distinct from the Jews they claim to share ancestry with, and those different genetic markers actually originate from a geographical location the Bible says is where Ashkenazi's ancestors settled. Just a coincidence, I'm sure. That is the official story. You are expected to believe it without asking questions, and if you ask questions, you will be called a conspiracy theorist by people who have a great deal riding on your continued credulity. But the problem is that it also requires believing the Bible is wrong about where Ashkenaz's ancestors settled, because Scripture says they settled in modern Armenia in the southern Caucasus, not the Rhineland. Josephus, the 1st century Jewish historian, ALSO says they settled there, not the Rhineland. But their entire origin story requires them to have settled the Rhineland. What happened to the genetic Ashkenazis who supposedly settled the Rhineland long before that tiny group of Semitic Jews got there? Mystery, man. They disappeared! Suddenly, all that remains in the region known as Ashkenaz is the group of Semitic Jews, now calling themselves Ashkenazi, who instead of having the DNA of other Semitic Jews, have the DNA from the region where the Bible and Josephus say Ashkenaz's ancestors settled. See the problem with this? Implausible doesn't begin to explain it. Believing the official narrative requires believing the Bible is wrong. It requires believing that the 1st-century Jewish historian, Josephus, is wrong. It requires believing it's only coincidental that the genetics study done by award-winning Ashkenazi and Israeli geneticist, Eran Elhaik (PhD in molecular evolution from the University of Houston in 2009, followed by two postdoctoral fellowships at Johns Hopkins) shows their DNA comes from the place the Bible and Josephus says Ashkenaz's ancestors settled. What you might not know is that John Gill, the renowned Protestant and Reformed Baptist Bible commentator and predecessor to Spurgeon at the London Metropolitan Tabernacle, looking at all the evidence in the 1800s, said that Jews in the Rhineland territory of Ashkenaz were indeed his blood relatives, meaning, unrelated to Abraham. He wasn't an "antisemitic conspiracy theorist" with a half-cocked theory he read on the Internet. That's where the facts took him. Here's the situation: the claim that Jews have an ancient ancestral land grant to the Promised Land, is not only wrong because the New Testament says that Christians are heirs of Abraham's promise, but even if that weren't the case, 80% of Jews worldwide wouldn't be on that deed, even if it existed. That included Bibi Netanyahu. Ben Shapiro. David Ben-Gurion. Menachem Begin. Yitzhak Rabin. Ariel Sharon. Golda Meir. Ehud Barak. Isaac Herzog. The father of modern Zionism, Theodor Herzyl. The Rothschilds. Wouldn't you give money not to have to hear opinions on Israel ever again from Miriam Adelson, Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman, Harvey Weinstein, Ari Emanuel, Larry Ellison, Sergey Brin, Michael Bloomberg, George Soros, Carl Icahn, Steve Schwarzman, Kenneth Griffin, Larry Fink? Well, you shouldn't have to, because they're not related to Abraham and have no claim to it. Read the evidence at Insight to Incite. Audio version available. Link in bio.
