What country do Jews come from?

Jews originated from Hebrew in Israel or West Asia.

Jews, also known as the Jewish nation, are a branch of Semitic people and are of the same origin as Arabs. This race is a semitic subspecies of Europa. According to the definition of halaka in Jewish law, all people who convert to Judaism (religious significance) and those born to Jewish mothers (national significance) belong to Jews.

The word "Jew" in Chinese comes from Hebrew, and the word "Jew" in English comes from "Gyw, Iewe" in Middle English, from "giu" in old French and "juieu" earlier, which can be traced back to "Iudaeum" in Latin.

In other languages, Jews are represented as "juif" (French) and "J? De "(Danish) and judío (Spanish), and some languages also use Hebrew transliteration to refer to Jews, such as" Ebreo "(Italian) and" Russian: еврей "(Russian).

Jewish patriarch entry: Covenant of circumcision

Circumcision (cutting off the foreskin of a baby boy) is a popular traditional Jewish religious ceremony, which is called "brit" or "brit milah" in Hebrew. Mocher is the executor of circumcision. If the baby boy is not sick or has other health problems, Mohan will circumcise the baby boy on the eighth day after birth.

In the process of circumcision, Mohan will make a speech to announce that the baby boy has implemented the law, and then the parents of the baby boy will make a speech to show that their son has been included in the contract between God and the Jews and officially name the baby boy.
