Best Answer

There have been migrations throughout the 4000-year history of Jews. You would have to be more specific.

Answer:The earliest migration of the Israelites as a group (as opposed to a family or individual) was when Jacob and his descendants (70 people) went to Egypt. Tradition places this event in 1522 BCE.

We don't usually speak of Jews as a race, though it wouldn't be technically incorrect, since:

"Race is a classification system used to categorize humans into large and distinct populations or groups by heritable phenotypic characteristics, geographic ancestry, physical appearance, ethnicity." (from a dictionary.)

Based on all of those delineations except appearance, it would be possible to call the Jews a race. Recent DNA analyses has shown that Jews are a Middle Eastern people and share certain genetic markers.

To answer the question, tradition ascribes the beginning of the Jewish people to Abraham, some 3800 years ago.

What is the difference between the migration of the Muslims to Medina and the migration of the Jews to Palestine?

IntroductionThere is not a large difference between the migration of Muslims to Medina and the migration of Jews to Mandatory Palestine. In both cases you had a population of people who were distinguished by belonging to a religious community distinct from the surrounding peoples and were subject to discrimination and death threats from those surrounding peoples.DifferencesHowever, the fundamental difference was that when the Muslims came to Medina, they were actually well-received by the indigenous Medinan tribes. Conversely, when the Jews came to Mandatory Palestine, they were subject to violence from the Arab Settled Muslims or Fellahin. This resulted in conflict from the first moment of entry. Another key difference was that the Jews had a historic presence and special relationship with the lands that comprised Mandatory Palestine. There were Ancient Jewish sites in the land and Jews saw their migration as a return home. Contrarily, when the Muslims came to Medina, they still considered Mecca their true home and spiritual center, exerting all of their energies on conquering Mecca.
