DNA & Ancient Hebrews


I'm currently reading the book, DNA & Tradition - The Genetic Link to the Ancient Hebrews.

While researching my father/brother's DNA results, I kept stumbling over this book, along with its high reviews.

This book was written about my paternal DNA - J1 CMH (Cohen Modal Haplotype.)

Although a CMH is linked as a descendant of Aaron, the book points out the obvious factor that a CMH is also a descendant of Abraham.

Scientists are now realizing that the CMH is a DNA signature of the ancient Hebrews. The Cohen Modal Haplotype is the yardstick for identifying all the tribes of Israel.

Here's a good article about the discovery of the Cohen Gene:

And more information on the tribe of Cohen-Levi

If you are interested in testing your own genetics, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND National Geographic. Their test kits run about $99 https://www3.nationalgeographic.com/genographic/

If you want to try testing your DNA for FREE, you can visit here, but I've heard that they are SLOW and it's your responsibility to check their website for results. http://www.smgf.org/index.jspx
