New Torah-Scroll Celebration in Jamaica

[MondoBeno]

I knew a Jewish family in England whose father was from Kingston. You wouldn't know until he spoke!

I find that Jews from India, Jamaica, Cuba, Ireland, or Brazil who settle in the USA or Britain have to "chose." They either become just Jewish or part of their country's diasporah. If you want to be accepted into the Jewish community, you can't be both.

[MondoBeno]

I can't believe there's still a Knesset in Jamaica. The members must be way old.

negroes and native indians are the real jews. not white khazar people

[jojo24love]

white jewish people funded the trans atlantic slave trade. they are the synagogue of satan

[asianlion7]

Guess what darkies? Jews owned practically all the slave ships that enslaved your ancestors and hid that fact from you just in case it pissed you off.

The following is a partial of the slave ships owned by Jews:

* 'Abigail' by Aaron Lopez.

* Moses Levy and Jacob Franks.

* 'Crown' by Isaac Levy and Nathan Simpson.

* 'Nassau'by Moses Levy.

@asianlion7 What kind of Asian are you? Muslim? Dont worry about black Hebrews, worry about what the British army did to your country. By the way there are a hell of a lot of darkies in diesease ridden India and Pakistan.

[asianlion7]

@brownlawgirl  I'm a darkie too. I have african and jewish blood. My ancestor Nathan Simpson owned 2 slave ships. I have nothing against the people of India or Pakistan. What I loath are ugly people from the UK. Britain does not even have an army. The Rothschilds own Britain, all the politicians and their army. That's why so many NATO dummies were sent to murder the beautiful people of Libya. The Rothschilds want Qaddifi's gold, oil and water

[asianlion7]

* 'Four Sisters' by Moses Levy. * 'Anne & Eliza' by Justus Bosch and John Abrams. * 'Prudent Betty' by Henry Cruger and Jacob Phoenix. * 'Hester' by Mordecai and David Gomez. * 'Elizabeth' by David and Mordecai Gomez. * 'Antigua' by Nathan Marston and Abram Lyell. * 'Betsy'by Wm. DeWoolf. * 'PoUy'by James DeWoolf. * 'White Horse' by Jan de Sweevts. * 'Expedition' by John and Jacob Rosevelt. * 'Charlotte' by Moses and Sam Levy and Jacob Franks. * 'Caracoa' by Moses and Sam Levy.

Welcome to Jamaica.

[duncebat]

So many "jews" in jamaica funny I lived there for 20 years never met one... where u guys hiding and why???

PS Black people need stop praising the gods of judaism, judeo christianity and judeo-christian islam these are all emulations of your ancestral spirituality every symbol every ritual is either taken as is or distorted to give its creators political and devine power over you,

[kwacou]

@duncebat Sorry for your issues but Jews don't need to hide in Jamaica. They look and act just like any other Jamaican. How do I know? I'm Jamaican and my Grand mum was a Jamaican Jew (Sephardi from Spain and Portugal). Jews in Jamaica look African,Asian,European because we are, just like other Jamaicans there is a lot a racial mixing. It's not like in the US. If you lived in Jamaica, as you claimed Jewish surnames are common such as: Decosta,Lopes,Matalon, Henriques, Golden,Lindo,Gomes etc.

[kwacou]

More names: Miller,Azan. In fact, our own beloved Miss Lou in her poem speaks of a Jewish grandfather. One other tidbit my father is part Maroon on his mothers side. And comes from a prominent Maroon family. And for myself, I embrace all of me from the proud African Warrior bloodlines to the Sephardi. I'm 100% Jamaican and my wife is from Cameroons. Peace and Love from an African brother.

[openearja]

@kwacou Just to note--Azan is a Lebanese, not Jewish, name. But other names here in Ja that are Jewish: DaCosta, Delgado, Mendez, Vaz, DeMercado, Newman, Gutzman, Soares, Lindo, Levy, DaSilva, Brimo, Asher, Melhado, Rodriguez, to list a few.

[risteard01]

@openearja There were thousands of Lebanese Jews. Those other names you list are Iberian and were probably taken when the Jewish Berbers got to the iberian peninsula.

[jojo24love]

@duncebat those white jewish people are not even real jews. they funded most of the trans atlantic slave trade. they are not bibical jews. negroes and native indians that were in slavery are the real jews. when that white jewish guy came to the america'she brought hebrew translators with him, because the native indians spoke a form of hebrew. people waske up, these white jewish people are khazars.

2:32 looks like John Barnes with a beard!!

[2912770]

I am a Christian, and all Christians who study the Bible, know that GOD gave the Land of Israel, to the Jewish People, and Jerusalem is their City. Dear LORD, bless the Jewish People.

[maria610421]

@2912770Go and Read your History books. Heard of Hertzel 1876, and learn how the Palestians was dispossed, and the land was Called Canaan, not Israel the people who lived there was Black people. Wake up people do the real history they have been hiding from you. The Black Hebrews, for god sake people wake up.

[asianlion7]

@2912770 As for you worshipping the "so-called" Jews; 90 % of the world's Jews are really Scythian (Gog & Magog) Ashkenazi Khazar Mongol mix, the other 10 % are Genuine Sephardic/Mizrahi Jews. Still many Ashkenazis and Sephardic people have intermingled. However DNA study shows most of the palestinians are ETHNIC JEWS! If you knew the Blasphemous none-sense in the Babylonian Talmud - lies and slander against Christ and his mother you wouldn't say what you said!!!

[AnthonyDubya]

May this be a reminder to us all the importance of observing the Torah commandments especially studying, keeping Shabbat and eating kosher foods.

May God send our holy Messiah along with the redemption on earth so that we will greet our grandparents and serve God in the rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem.
