A:The question relates to the extent of Jewish occupation of the modern lands immediately before the declaration of Israel's independence. Actual births are hard to quantify directly, but there are statistics on population. And of course, births can be estimated on the basis of population and Immigration.
  • On eve of Crimean War, (1853-56) about half a million people lived in Palestine, including 20,000 Jews.
  • By 1914, there were an estimated 70,000 Jews in Palestine. Many had arrived in the period since 1882.
  • Following the end of the First world War, the British classified the 800,000 inhabitants of Palestine according to religion: 650,000 Muslims; 80,000 Christians; 60,000 Jews. During the war, almost 40,000 Muslims, more than 10,000 Christians and more than 1,000 Jews had died fighting the Turks.
  • By the end of 1947, there were 600,000 Jews in Palestine. Most were legal and illegal immigrants, and so were not born in the territory.

How many Jews were in Israel in 1940?

A:Reliable figures for any one year are hard to come by, but Arnold Blumberg (The History of Israel) says there were 70,000 Jews in Palestine in 1914, and 600,000 by the end of 1947. For historical reasons, the figure for 1940 would be closer to the 1914 count. Answer 2In addition to those numbers, we know that the amount of Jews in Mandatory Palestine in 1931 was 175,000 according to Sergio della Pergola. If I had to guess what the Jewish population was in Palestine in 1940, I agree with Answer 1 in saying that it would be less than 335,000 (halfway between 70,000 and 600,000). My guess would be around 230,000-250,000.
