This view was held not only by many  Christians (including Thomas Jefferson), but by many Jewish writers  (such as Mordecai Noah) as well, but fell out of favor by the late 19th  Century. <br><br> One of the many reasons that many scholars came to  this conclusion was that it was quickly recognized that there was an  apparent influence of Hebrew on Native American languages.&nbsp; It was noted  that Native American languages often followed the Hebrew pattern of  making prepositions into prefixes, and that Native American languages  were similarly used prefixes and suffixes in much the same was as  Hebrew. <br><br> More importantly it was noted that Native American  languages had many cognates to Hebrew words.&nbsp; Some of these (as given by  Ethan Smith in his 1825 book \u201cView of the Hebrews\u201d) are as follows:<br> (I have made some occasional improvements on the below table, especially in transliteration of some Hebrew words):<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>English<\/th><th>Indian<\/th><th>Hebrew or Chaldaic<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>Jehovah<\/td><td>Yohewah<\/td><td>Yahuweh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>God<\/td><td>Ale<\/td><td>El<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jah<\/td><td>Yah<\/td><td>Yah<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shiloh<\/td><td>Shilu<\/td><td>Shiloh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Heavens<\/td><td>Chemim<\/td><td>Shamayim<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Father<\/td><td>Abba<\/td><td>Av, Abba<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Man<\/td><td>Ish, Ishte<\/td><td>Ish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Woman<\/td><td>Ishto<\/td><td>Isha<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wife\/Eve<\/td><td>Awah<\/td><td>Chavah<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>You<\/td><td>Keah<\/td><td>Ka<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>His Wife<\/td><td>Liani<\/td><td>Lihene<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>This man (he)<\/td><td>Uwoh<\/td><td>Hu<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nose<\/td><td>Niehiri<\/td><td>Neheri<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Roof of a house<\/td><td>Traubana-ora<\/td><td>Debonaour<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Winter<\/td><td>Kora<\/td><td>Korah<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Canaan<\/td><td>Cannai<\/td><td>Canaan<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>To pray<\/td><td>Phale<\/td><td>Phalac<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Now<\/td><td>Na<\/td><td>Na<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Hind part<\/td><td>Kesh<\/td><td>Kish<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Do<\/td><td>Jennais<\/td><td>Yannon<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>To blow<\/td><td>Phaubac<\/td><td>Phaubac<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rushing wind<\/td><td>Rowah<\/td><td>Ruach<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ararat or high mountain<\/td><td>Ararat<\/td><td>Ararat<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> There are many other possible Hebrew linguistic influences on \nIndian languages.&nbsp; For example the Mayan word for \u201creal\u201d or \u201ctrue\u201d is \nhalach.&nbsp; Could this have been derived from the Hebrew term halacha \nmeaning \u201cthe way to go\u201d and commonly used to refer to Jewish customs and\n laws. <br><br> The ancient Hebrews called false gods Baalim (\u201clords\u201d)\n while the Mayans worshiped the jaguar as a god and their word for \n\u201cjaguar\u201d was \u201cBalam\u201d. <br><br> There are also connections between Hebrew and the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Uto-Aztecan_languages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Uto-Aztecan<\/a>\n dialects which were spoken across the western portion on North America \nand down into Mexico.&nbsp; My old friend and mentor the late Dr. Cyrus \nGordon pointed out&nbsp; that in the Native American Teletzinco Nahuatl \nlanguage (a Uto-Atzecan dialect), <em>wa<\/em> means \u2018and\u2019 just as in Semitic languages (such as Hebrew and Aramaic)&nbsp; (<em><strong>Before Columbus<\/strong><\/em>; Cyrus Gordon; Crown Publishers; N.Y. 1971 p. 136)<br><br>\n In Uto-Aztecan the plural suffix is \u2013ima while in Hebrew the masculine \nplural suffix is \u2013im.&nbsp; In UA the reciprocal passive reflexive prefix is \nna- while in Hebrew it is ni-.&nbsp; <br><br> In 1998 linguist Brian Stubbs\n published a revolutionary paper which demonstrated a distinct Hebrew \ninfluence on the Uto-Aztecan languages . <br><br> Stubbs points out \nthat cognate words in Hebrew and Uto-Aztecan which share the same \nambiguity are especially compelling. Among the more compelling examples \ncited by Stubbs is the Uto-Aztecan word <em>yesipa<\/em> meaning \u201csit\u201d or \u201cdwell\u201d which appears related to the Hebrew root <em>yashav<\/em> (Strong\u2019s 3427) meaning \u201csit\u201d or \u201cdwell\u201d.&nbsp; Stubbs gives many more examples to numerous to list here.&nbsp; (ESOP (<em><strong>Epigraphic Society Occasional Papers<\/strong><\/em>) 23; \u201c<em><strong>A Curious Element in Uto-Aztecan<\/strong><\/em>\u201d; Brian Darrel Stubbs; pp. 109-140; 1998)<br><br> The following are just some of the examples given by Stubbs in his detailed analysis of the relationship:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>English<\/th><th>Uto-Atecan<\/th><th>Hebrew<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>plural suffix<\/td><td>-ima<\/td><td>-im<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>psv\/rfl\/rcp prefix<\/td><td>na-<\/td><td>ni-<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sit, Dwell<\/td><td>Yasipa<\/td><td>Yashav<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lightning<\/td><td>Berok<\/td><td>Barak<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kidney<\/td><td>Kali<\/td><td>Kilya<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Water, ocean<\/td><td>Memet (ocean)<\/td><td>Mayim, Mem (water)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shoulder<\/td><td>Kotpa<\/td><td>Katep<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shoulder<\/td><td>Sika\/Siku<\/td><td>Sekem<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Man, Person<\/td><td>Otam<\/td><td>Adam<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Prudent, Wise<\/td><td>Iskalia<\/td><td>Hiskal<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shave, Scrape, Smooth<\/td><td>Sipa<\/td><td>Sippa<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Squirrel<\/td><td>Sikku<\/td><td>Sikkov<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Twin<\/td><td>Cono<\/td><td>Cinw<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bird<\/td><td>Cipu(ri)<\/td><td>Cippur<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>interrogative prefix<\/td><td>Ha-<\/td><td>Ha-<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>keep locked, lock<br>\n\nlizard<br>\n\n<\/td><td>cakwa<br>\n\ncakwa<br>\n\n<\/td><td>cabba<br>\n\ncabb<br>\n\n<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Arrow<\/td><td>Huk<\/td><td>Hek<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> Why would Native American languages have such commonalities with  Hebrew?&nbsp; There is evidence that there was some transoceanic contact  between ancient Hebrews and the New World (as I have shown in a previous  blog).&nbsp; But these linguistic connections seem to show much more than  just transoceanic contact, and occur throughout North America (Smith&#8217;s  examples of 1825 were largely from the Indian languages of the North  East United States, while Stubb&#8217;s Uto-Aztecan examples are from the West  and Southwest.)&nbsp; <br><br> The question of the origins of Native  Americans was one that received considerable attention in the first few  centuries after Europeans re-discovered the New World.&nbsp; One answer can  be found in the Bible itself.&nbsp; In Genesis we are told that at the  scattering of mankind following the fall of the Tower of Babel that  \u201cfrom there, did YHWH scatter them abroad upon the face of all the  earth\u201d (Gen. 11:9) and the first century Jewish Roman historian Josephus  writes of this event \u201cThere were some also who passed over the sea in  ships\u2026\u201d (Ant. 1:5:1).&nbsp; Certainly we know today that ancestors of the  Native Americans crossed over the land bridge from Asia into Alaska.&nbsp;  But is it possible there is more to the story?<br><br> Certainly  portions of the Lost Tribes migrated into Europe and even Asia, but is  it possible that some portion of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel also  migrated to the New World and become a part of the ancestry of at least  some Native American groups?&nbsp; Could this be part if a bigger puzzle?&nbsp; In  a future article I will present more of the evidence that suggests that  such a thing may well have occurred, and that some of the Lost Tribes  did indeed migrate to the American Continents and did indeed become part  of the ancestry of at least some Native American groups. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"76\" height=\"80\" src=\"http:\/\/nazarenespace.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Siren2.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-268\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>We must raise at least $500 ASAP to cover our electric bill!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you know <strong><em>we have been digging ourselves out of a budget shortfall<\/em><\/strong>.&nbsp;\n As  I have said to you many times, I look on this work as a \nco-operative  one with me, and all of you combining our resources \ntogether in order to  get the job done of helping to teach this great \ntruth to all in the  world who will listen.
