This is quite a leap. Please connect these dots.
Straight from the Bible, KJV: Gen 10:2 The sons of Japheth; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. Gen 10:3 And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
Also in the Arthur Koestler's 13th tribe on Page 2 "For the sake of piquantry it should be mentioned that the Ashkenaz of the Bible refers to a people living somewhere in the vicinity of Mount Ararat and Armenia. The name occurs in Genesis 10, 3 and I Chronciles 1, 6, as one of the sons of Gomer, who was a son of Japheth. Ashkenaz is also a brother of Togarmah (and a nephew of Magog)".
And also it talks about the prophets, you can find "For Ashkenaz is also named in Jeremiah 51, 27, where the prophet calls his people and their allies to rise and destroy Babylon: "Call thee upon the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni and Ashkenaz."
And, also on Page 2 "Khazar Jews, who heard of the Gaon's ingenious arguments, called themselves Ashkenazim when they emigrated to Poland.".
Thanks. I'm pointing out that from Gen 10 to the beginning of any Khazarian empire was about 3,000 years, so it seems impossible that these people with similar names are the same.
Makes sense. Most likely the Khazars became Jews by conversion. So, who do you think the Khazars are? according to Koestler they are "people of Turkish stock".
How about the term Ashkenazim? is it related to Saadiah Gaon, spiritual leader of Oriental Jewry in the tenth century? and they used Ashkenazi Jews from Gaon prophecy when when they emigrated to Central Europe, Poland and Germany?
I appreciate your research on this. I have no opinion on the topic, but like seeing info instead of claims without basis.
Seems like the Khazarian empire is little known from what I can find. If Jews weren't an influential group they wouldn't have gotten a large group to convert to Judaism. If the rank and file weren't influential but a few in a small circle were, then Jews were still an influential group.
Jews go out of their way to discourage anyone from converting.
The other possibility seems equally implausible: Jews migrating from Israel to Europe and wielding influence without leaving a traceable path.
None of it makes any sense.
Also, I've read that ashkenazi jews are 80% of the jews in Europe; what about shephardic? That doesn't make any sense either.
DNA research from around the time of Christ shows that Jews then were closest to Arabs just east of there now. This is not really surprising but defeats the most common ideas we see here on the topic.
