but their aliya was subsequently halted in 2007 over the issue of their "Jewishness", even though the Israeli Chief Rabbinate had earlier recognised the community as "descendants of Israel".

So did they resolve the issue with DNA testing?

Thanks nickcarraway. Purported Lost Tribe, so, ancient history related. See Jacobovici's "Search for the Lost Tribes" for an interesting (though IMHO not too compelling) segment on this ethnically isolated group.

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.

The thing people are generally unaware of is that Jews today are out of the ancient Kingdom of Judah. Israel became split into two Kingdoms, the southern Kingdom of Judah and northern Kingdom of Israel or otherwise know as Samaria. The tribe of Manasseh was part of the northern Kingdom of Israel not the Kingdom of Judah.

In the New Testament you might remember how Jesus' disciples were surprised that he would talk to a Samaritan. Also remember the parable of the good Samaritan. To Judah the Samaritans were basically considered to be a mixture and were looked very down upon. That is why though they are descendants of Israel there may not have been a proclivity for the Jews whose background is from the Kingdom of Judah to want to include in there number a "Samaritan". That would be my guess about what the hold up was all about, but I am not sure.

The Northern Kingdom consisted of of the tribes of Zebulun, Issachar, Asher, Naphtali, Dan, Manasseh, Ephraim, Reuben and Gad. Also Livites were incorporated into all the tribal areas.

The Southern Kingdom consisted only of the tribes of Judah and Benjamin with their Livites. These are the people call today "Jews". That is why though people from the tribe of Manasseh are, in the article, referred to as "descendants of Israel" but not, per say, as "Jews".
