Ancient Japan and the Jews

Isn't it racist to signify your self as special over other humans?

Shinto and Jewish backgrounds?

I was just falling over this link and thought, it might be of interest or maybe someone has more information?
No idea, how reliable it is, but it sounds and looks very interesting at least.
My base was the Suwa Taisha Shrine, to give you an idea.
But the rest seems to be as interesting there.


If anyone knows more, please inform me.
I am also a researcher about matsuris, and metamorphoses of "gods", by the way, to give you a direction.

和歌＝Japanese poetry
It can say it 倭歌.

for example, Japanese counting..1,2,3,4.......
Hi Fu Mi Yo Ittu Mu Nana Yaｈ kokono Tou（Hitotsu, futatsu, mittsu, yottsu, itsutsu, muttsu, nanatsu, yattsu, kokonotsu, towo."）

Hifa mi yotsia ma na'ne ykakhena tavo in ancient Heblew
（Who will bring her out? What should we call out (in chorus) to entice her to come?" ）


if this is something true, we can find same in Waka( 倭歌）
at first, I guess waka was ancient Hebrew or Sumerian' s syllable poem.
and the Japanese language was made by this waka.

ast first, there existed an unknown sentence of hiragana. then they add it interpretation and meaning by kanji. it became the Japanese language.
Who concealed this?
Why did Japan sweep away Hebrew? I think prince shotoku..
倭 was changed to 日本？

What do you think?

This would be a very hard call. The likelihood of mere random occurance having come into play so as to allow some degree of influence in some way could answer enough of the problems so as to be able to write it off as coincidence--rather than members of the Ten Tribes of ancient Israel actually having come to and settled in Japan.

Other aspects would have to be looked at more carefully, I feel. The matter of the Hebrew poetry, (pending proper vowel readings) seems a bit strange for that religious belief-system of old. . . although it could be pre-priestly, and that could possibly have some bearing...maybe? Who knows.

My bet would be that it would be most largely, if not quite totally, coincidence--and of course, I could be wrong too.

You have to be kidding me. Haiku (syllable poem as we know it) has its origins in China.
How could Japan sweep away a language it never had in the first place?

There seems to be a popular Altaic hypothesis about the Japanese language.
And in thinking about these theories that not one mentioned Hebrew, and the distance between them and lack of understanding research of the tribes, and how far they would have had to travel, the idea left me a bit dumbfounded.

But then I read up on the Khazars.
They were a Jewish, Nomadic Altaic tribe, and their known sphere of travel was all the way to Northeastern edges of Asia, to the ocean even. And as south as Hokkaido would be, in Russia. It's quite possible a few Khazars also settled in Japan.

Here's the picture:



As you can see, that dark blue sphere, right by Hokkaido.
Wouldn't be surprised if it was in Hokkaido as well.

Could there be any relation to the Khazars and the ten lost tribes?
Because you can directly see that Nomadic travels deep within North Asia.

If Japanese are part of the ten lost tribes, there's either some relation between the Khazars and Lost Tribes, not just Jews in general, or there was a lost tribe who followed a different path at a different time, into Asia, similar to the path the Khazars took.

But even if this is true, that would mean there is only SOME lost tribe in Japan. Similar to the Chinese influence on Yamato. As many of these lost tribes would have existed long after the early signs of people living in Japan. There WAS in fact a Paleolithic Japan, not even just a Jomon period, but a Paleolithic period as well.
