to have left Egypt still more mixed |
with colored blood. Even their lead |
er, Moses. was a black man, accord |
ing to the Koran or Mohammedan
Bible.
After being established in Pales-
tine the Jews mixed extensively with
their neighbors, according 10 the law
of Moses they had a right to take the
virgins captured in war as coneu-
bines. Later they were again en-
shaved by a black people, the Philis-
tines. A portrait of Dagon, chief
god of the Philistines, whose temple
was supposed to have been pulled
down by Samson, shows him to have
been a typical colored man. Da-
gon. moreover, was also worshipped
by the Jews.
Today. the Jews of Palestine,
Egypt, Morocco. Algeria. Portugal,
and Spain have strong infusion Of
colored blood, and a large pereen.
tage of them show it as Ratzel and
other writer's have pointed out, and
as anyone who has visited those
countries may see for himself. There
are even Congo Jews, who are col

Fishberg in his book, THE jew

nearly all the traces" of mankind
$ in short, that the Jew, like the res

characteristics of the environment i
which he lives.

Il in the light-brown mans land, as !
q Portugal, he is lght-brown, and /

;, hair. the same is true, and hair, be
y ing the most reliable index of co

hes In conclusion, since the Jew, |
