New Study of 'Passover Letter' May Change What We Know About the Birth of Judaism
www.haaretz.com/archaeology/2024-11-04/ty-article/âŚ
"But why, you may ask, would Jews in Elephantine be following Zoroastrian traditions and taking instruction on religious matters from the Persian administration? Well, most scholars agree that through the First Temple Period, and possibly well into the Second Temple Period, the Israelite religion was very different from what we know today. Torah law was not yet observed and neither was monotheism: while the Israelites worshipped a god named Yahweh, they also believed in other deities.
Some of these gods are also mentioned in other documents from Elephantine, such as Anatyahu, possibly a consort of Yahweh. In the Passover Letter itself, Hananyah invokes the blessings of "elahayah" (the gods â in the plural) upon his readers.
So the Judaism of the Persian period was still very different from the religion we know today, and we have no evidence that by the fifth century B.C.E. Jews had any knowledge or observance of basic precepts of the Torah, such as monotheism or kosher laws, or the keeping of Passover, Barnea says.
We do know instead that there was a lot of Zoroastrian-inspired syncretism across the Jewish world, with Yahweh taking on attributes and forms of veneration typical of Ahura Mazda, he adds. Zoroastrian priests, known as magi, and faithful were present at Elephantine and nearby Aswan, and had close ties with the Jewish Yahwists. More importantly, another papyrus in the Elephantine cache mentions that in their temple, the Jews maintained a "fire altar," something alien to later Jewish tradition, but a central form of veneration in Zoroastrianism."

I can work with this research right here.
Should I make a video?

Revealed: face of a Sudanese princess entombed in Egypt 2,500 years ago
www.theguardian.com/culture/2024/oct/26/revealed-fâŚ
"The hieroglyphics on the womanâs sarcophagus show that the individual buried in it was named âTa-Kr-Hbâ or âTakerhebâ. She is believed to have been a priestess or princess who died in her thirties and had suffered heavy tooth decay. She is thought to have lived during the 25th-26th dynasty (c. 760-525BC).
Dr Mark Hall, the museumâs collections officer, said: âWhat we now know from Chrisâs facial reconstruction is that the female is Kushite. Sheâs from the kingdom of Kush, which was a neighbour of Ancient Egypt in Sudan.
âAt this particular time, 2,500 years ago, thatâs when the Kushite empire conquered Egypt. You get a whole sequence of black, Kushite pharaohs.â"

Another E-M34 Y-DNA match... this man just came out of hiding. I wonder if he saw my post? Only on FTDNA. This doesn't happen on YFull.

3 different lineages of matches under E-M35: E-M34, E-V13, and E-V12. Completely bizarre and I finally have the answer to why. The Y-STRs are very similiar with my matches having only a limited Y-STR markers that are different. Also, the lack of matches for each of us brings these different matches together on FTDNA to match. When the original BigY was available on FTDNA, the SNP testing was brand new and not much research to rely on. This brought the geneticists from FTDNA Y-DNA to match us together due to limited differences and Y-DNA availability. So instead of matching us with our respective lineages together, such as, E-V13 with other E-V13's, they matched us to boost our matches. If you do not have any matches past 25 markers, then you aren't really going to find out much besides a specific SNP.
If you need recommendations; Just let me know.
E-CTS3346 is a 5 SNP downstream of E-V12.

"Bates said the discovery not only sheds light on the rituals involved in Nabataean birth and death practices, but also, "by analyzing the skeleton material, the teeth, the bones, we can tell things about their lifestyle. So it's going to unlock a view on Nabataean life that we've just never had access to before.""

These self-righteous Jews think they are so high and mighty with their so-called chosenness but the truth is that they are delusional and believe in a Canaanite myth deity.

"One of these graffiti, signed by a man named Yehoshua, mocks a gladiator defeated by another gladiator," Rocca noted. "The first gladiator was a retiarius, a gladiator that was armed with a net and a short dagger; the second one was a Thracian gladiator. Thracian gladiators wore helmets like the one depicting a palm tree and carried a short sword, the sica. It is important to remember that one of the anti-Roman Jewish sects active at the end of the Second-Temple period was called Sicarii."
"In his writings, the famous Jewish-Roman historian Flavius Josephus, who chronicled the Jewish Revolt, revealed how some of the tens of thousands of Jews brought back to Rome from Judea as slaves were ordered to become gladiators."
"The fate of the gladiator from Judea remains unknown, but his helmet offers a glimpse into what may have been his story of slavery and survival."

FTDNA Update: Haplogroups are being updated based on Autosomal Transfers from Ancestry.com, 23andMe, MyHeritage, etc. positive for
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). They need to update it and I brought it to their attention. Basically, it messed some people's Haplogroups up. But as of right now, I am E-CTS12006 of E-P2 based on Autosomal transfer from Ancestry. 4th downstream of E-M96. So from E-V13 to back up to E-CTS12006 based on Mitochondrial DNA. $19 Unlock fee can give your FamilyFinder Haplocall when transferring in your Autosomal kit transfer.
They are also doing the same with mtDNA coming soon!

I understand that religions are man-made. However, the purpose of this YouTube channel is to address the Nations of people who are said to be descendants of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. The focus will be on Biblical Nation's culture, religion(Israelism, Judaism, Islam, Zoroastrianism, Ancient Babylonian), and language barriers(Arabic, Aramaic, Akkadian, Sinaitic, Phoenician, Hebrew). According to the Bible's Chronology and genealogical records, the Earth is 5,783 AM(Anno Mundi or Year After Creation). With that being said, I understand that not all ethnicities or people of the Earth are from the mythical Bible story of Noah and his three sons. For example, Australian Aborigines and American Aboriginals were already on their own continent before the Biblical Adam was born. Haplogroups do not line up with the Bible Chronology. I will address YouTubers that have taken it upon themselves to discredit the Jews, Kohanim, Samaritan Israelites, and Arabs, from being who they claim they are.
