I read about the Karaite jews while researching my (formerly unknown) jewish heritage. There were a few fundamental differences I discovered.
1)They were able to prove that they were not involved in the Crucifixion of Jesus
2)Only believe and follow the Tanach (Old Testament)
3)Had a large population in Crimea and Kiev (of all places)
4)Did NOT practice circumcision
5)You were jewish through your Father...(not the mother)----MtDNA vs Y chromosome DNA
I (unfortunately) can't site the claims above. I lost all my notes and bookmarks in a crash. There's a lot of conflicting views, but believe the above to be the truth. Please research on your own and use your critical thinking skills. If you are like me...you may find more questions then answers, but won't be bored. Most all of us have lost our heritage through these intended wars of non-sense. It's an amazing time of information availability. Take advantage of it.

An astonishing realization has recently gripped the Christian world: "Jesus Christ" was not a blond-haired, blue-eyed Gentile. Yeshua of Nazareth was raised in an observant Jewish family in a culture where the Torah (five books of Moses) was the National Constitution. Yeshua's teachings, which supposedly form the basis for Western Christianity, are now filtered through 2000 years of traditions born in ignorance of the land, language, and culture of the Bible. The issues over which Yeshua wrestled with the Pharisees are simply not understood by modern Christians; nor are his most important instructions followed by those who claim to be his disciples. Former Pharisee, Nehemia Gordon, a Dead Sea Scrolls scholar and Semitic language expert, explores the ancient Hebrew text of the Gospel of Matthew from manuscripts long hidden away in the archives of Jewish scribes. Gordon's research reveals that the more "modern" Greek text of Matthew, from which the Western world's versions were translated, depicts "another Jesus" from the Yeshua portrayed in the ancient Hebrew version of Matthew. Gordon explains the life-and-death conflict Yeshua had with the Pharisees as they schemed to grab the reins of Judaism in the first century, and brings that conflict into perspective for both Jew and Christian alike.

There were a lot of refugees to New York Philadelphia and Baltimore in the 1800s who changed their names (for obvious reasons). I think it's more common to Americans than people would know.

I'm 🤷♀️ confused...I copied and pasted the links. Wasn't passing it off as mine. Is that not allowed?
