The Bene-Israel of India: An Ancient Living Community
Hosted By: Qesher
The Bene-Israel, the largest historical Jewish community from the Indian subcontinent, traces its origins to the first or second century BCE, according to oral tradition. This event will explore their history, culture, and contributions to Indian and Pakistani history, British colonial rule, and the Bollywood film industry. Today, fewer than 4,000 remain in India, as most have immigrated to Israel, embracing their motto, “Mother India, Father Israel.”
