Hungarian has adopted some words from the Slavs who were in Hungary before they arrived. Genetically they are pretty similar to the surrounding Slavic peoples, suggesting that a small elite from Siberia imposed their rule over a more numerous Slavic-speaking population.
You have not met the Lebanese I know; about six feet plus muscular. His mom is tall as are his uncles. Maybe from different areas of Lebanon than Danny Thomas/Jamie Farr The young man is first generation American on that side.
Let me say it first: UNEXPECTED?
“;^)
Thanks, knew that as well but yet again the Magyars came out across the Tibetan planes and grandma said that and grandma ain’t wrong. You have a problem I’ll put her on the phone to you although I doubt you’ll have a decent nights sleep for a week.
Across the Tibetan planes.
How many Tibetan planes parked wing to wing would it take to stretch all the way to -- I dunno, pick someplace -- how 'bout -- Cincinnati?
I had a DNA test. It said my DNA was 97% ape.
Why is 'race' being categorized by names of geographical areas ?
Everybody gets surprises.
“My DNA test showed I was 18% Sub-Sahara where Jews lived and where Noah came from. And yes, I’m Jewish.”
Sub Saharan is black African.
Yep there was some left but there wasn’t supposed to be. We see how that worked out.
Israelites were too few in numbers to totally displace
the original inhabitants
The Philistines and Canaanites had chariots which Israelite
did not have
Israelites stuck to the hill country leaving Canaanites
and Philistines in control of the coastal plains
You obviously do not know your ancient history.
Dunno - ask the racists.
Okay, plains ... long day, tired, and planes were on my mind.
Very Interesting. I was told that Korean (Hangul) is one of the closest languages to Hungary...spoken, not written because of east Asian alphabet...
You Animal!!! ;-)
Korean may or may not be distantly related to Japanese--expert opinion seems to be divided. If there is any connection between Korean and Hungarian it would be very remote. The languages related to Hungarian are in western Siberia, a long ways away from the Korean peninsula.
In her August 3, 2017, Federalist article, "Media Falsely Claim DNA Evidence Refutes Scripture," Mollie Hemingway reviews and links to the media claims. Mollie states, in part:
Of the many things that journalists are ignorant of, religion is at the top of the list. I like to collect examples of biblical illiteracy. The Associated Press once gave William Butler Yeats credit for writing Hebrews. The New York Times said that Easter marks the resurrection of Jesus … into heaven.Mollie then goes on to explain in references and passages from the Old Testament what the Bible actually states.
The past few days have seen a flurry of articles claiming that a new archeological find disputes the scriptural account of the Canaanites....
The only problem being, of course, that all of these stories are wrong about what the Bible claims regarding the annihilation of the Canaanites.
Some of the media outlets above slightly revised or outright corrected their stories. All were too willing to accept the assumptions in the original study, which made misleading claims about what scripture teaches regarding Canaanites.
"It could not be more clear. Over and over and over again, we’re told that the Canaanites survived."The Biblical illiteracy begins with the authors (and all of the reviewers and journal editors) of the scientific paper, "Continuity and admixture in the last five millennia of Levantine history from ancient Canaanite and present-day Lebanese genome sequences," (Marc Haber, et al., The American Journal of Human Genetics, Volume 101, Issue 2, pp. 274–282, 3 August 2017, online 27 July 2017), which states (p. 275):
"Uncertainties also surround the fate of the Canaanites: the Bible reports the destruction of the Canaanite cities and the annihilation of its people; if true, the Canaanites could not have directly contributed genetically to present-day populations."The authors provided no reference to the Scriptures for their assertion.
