Abstract
- The article focuses on the complex question on who is a Jew in terms of genetics. It focuses on Israel's Law of Return which provides a special track to citizenship for individuals with an ethnic and/or ancestral connection, the difference between rabbinic law and Israel's law and the revival of the idea of the ten lost tribes as a result of high frequencies of Y-chromosome haplogroups R1ala-M198 and the presence of G2c-M377 found in certain Hindu tribes.
