Lost tribe of Israel in India

Bnei Menashe community claim they are descendants of one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, who were sent into exile in India over 27 centuries ago.

A new photography exhibition of Bnei Menashe’s successful absorption in Israel was launched on Wednesday, exhibiting images depicting the unique story of India's Jewish community.

The Bnei Menashe people claim they are descendants of one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, who were sent into exile in India over 27 centuries ago.

The exhibition was supported by the Minister of Immigrant Absorption Sofa Landver, and portrays the immigrant community’s lives in Israel and India.

The community, which lives in India's northeastern border states of Manipur and Mizoram have been practicing Judaism just as their ancestors did, including observing the Sabbath, keeping kosher, celebrating the festivals and following the laws of family purity.

In recent years, non-profit organization Shavei Israel, founded in order to strengthen ties between Israel and Jews in the Diaspora, assisted in brining over 1,700 people from the Bnei Menashe community to Israel, while another 7,200 still remain in India.

Do pathans have been practicing Judaism just as their ancestors did, including observing the Sabbath, keeping kosher, celebrating the festivals and following the laws of family purity???????

If not then waste of time and off topic.

As per ISLam Moses(pbuh) was a muslim including Jesus(pbuh) and abraham(pbuh)
they all were muslims

so pathan acesters were muslims nt jews.or judaism practicer
we dnt consider moses(pbuh) bought the judaism from God we say Judaism is Human made and Moses(pbuh) bring Islam that time too

this is why we say Islam is nt a new religion

Or Muhammad(pbuh) Didnt bring a New religion.

The Israeli government has recognized them as one of the lost tribes and made them eligible for immigration under the Law of Return.

its not confirmed yet -

In 2010, Amir Mizroch in the Jerusalem Post referred to the theory that even Pashtuns in Afghanistan and Pakistan could be descending from the lost tribe of Efraim. Shahnaz Ali, a senior research fellow at the Indian National Institute of Immunohaematology in Mumbai, has started studying the blood samples that she collected from Afridi Pathans in Malihabad, in the Lucknow district in Uttar Pradesh, India, to check their putative Israelite origin.

dude, it's better if somebody not comment on religion at all because it will just flame more, nothing else. people have their own religions and don't mix them with Hinduism.

You remind me of this :

YouTube - Santa Is Indian!


Seriously ,or were you being sarcastic

Apparently theres one lost tribe in Zimbabwe as well. However these people will just be 2nd class Jews in Israel, Ethopian jews should be a good example to them. Staying in India is the better option.

Guys my coment was a joke..
I had tried to clarify earlier also, and I do so again hoping it would not be deleted by moderators once again.
I am a person who is very spiritual minded and give respect to all religions and thinkings, and don't consider any one religion to be superior over others.
