Best Answer

If the question is asking when the Jews and Arabs have been fighting each other to determine the fate of the former British Mandate of Palestine, the answer is that they have been fighting each other since the 1920s.

If the question is asking when Jews and Arabs first fought at all, the earliest historically verified battles fought by Jews happened nearly 2800 years ago and The Bible alludes to even earlier confrontations. There is minimal documentation on Arabs that has survived from over 2000 years ago, but it is highly likely that Arab tribes were fighting each other back then. Arab military expansion out of Arabia occurred as early as 650 or so C.E. when Caliph Omar expanded the Islamic Caliphate into the Levant.

How are Arabs and Jews linked?

Tradition states that Arabs and Jews are both descended from Abraham. The Arabs are from Ishmael, and the Jews are from Isaac (through his son Jacob). Both Ishmael and Isaac were sons of Abraham (Genesis ch.21 and ch.25). Arabs as well as Jews have this tradition. See also:More about Abraham and Isaac


What were the roots of Arabs and Jews?

Arabs are descended from Abraham just as Jews are. After that initial connection, Jews (Israelites) and Arabs have been distict peoples with separate languages and religions.

Do Jews and Arabs have a common beginning?

According to Jewish and Arab tradition, the Jews descend from Abraham following the line of his son Isaac and the Arabs descend from Abraham following the line of his son Ishmael. So it may be said that Jews and Arabs had a common beginning. In terms of what science can tell us, while Jews have a strong genetic relationship to Levantine Arabs (Arabs in Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria), they do not have a strong genetic relationship with Arabian Arabs (who were the original Arabs and live in the Arabian Peninsula).


How are the Palestinians related to Jews?

Arabs (including Palestinian Arabs) are descended from Abraham just as Jews are, which is why Arabs are called "our cousins" in Jewish Torah-commentaries. But after the initial connection, Jews (Israelites) and Arabs have been distict peoples with separate languages and religions. Jews are descended from Isaac (son of Abraham), while Arabs are descended from Ishmael (son of Abraham). See Genesis ch.16, 17 and 21.
