The Cochin Jews of India - 2000 years old Indian Jewish Community - Older than Islam

This video describes about , the history , life, traditions about the Cochin Malabari jews who have a 2000 year old heritage and history.

Very interesting narration about the ancient history of Jewish migration to Kerala, establishment of Synagogues, again relocation due severe floods in Periyar river in 1341 and destruction of Muzris Port City at Kodungalloor. Once again due to attack of the Mysore Sultan Tippu, and destruction of their places of worship, they had to relocate their places of worship places of residences in Malabar region. Happy to note that those Jews who returned to Israel during 1950s to 1960s and those left thereafter to Israel got settled there comfortably.

Jews constitute less than 0.25% of the global population, yet 25% of the Nobel price winners are of Jewish origin! They are very special, India always respected them.
