This question is nebulous because it does not give a timeframe. If the intent is to discuss the modern State of Israel, the majority of Jewish Immigration to State came in waves. There were the immigrations during the 1920s to 1940s where around 300,000 Jews immigrated to Israel. There were the immigrations from the Arab World in which around 500,000 Jews immigrated to Israel. There were the sporadic missions which brought in about 100,000 Jews from Ethiopia, Yemen, and other countries and there was the Russian immigration in the early 1990s that brought in 1,000,000 immigrants. There is also sporadic immigration from Europe and the Americas. Most Israelis today are Sabras (native-born Jews).

Jewish people have lived in Israel for thousands of years, but there has never been a time when ONLY Jewish people lived within it's borders.Reading 2: At what time did all Jews live exclusively in Israel?The Jewish People lived exclusively in Israel from their early development as a nation (in what is now Israel and the West Bank) up to 586 BCE when the Babylonians conquered the Kingdom of Judah and exiled the Jewish aristocracy to Babylon (and therefore made part of the Jewish community live outside of Israel). Never again did the Jews exclusively live in Israel.

Are Jews from a certain country?

Originally, the Jewish faith was created in what is now modern day Israel. Many Jews live in Israel today, and many people associate Jewish people with that country today. Not ALL Jews are from Israel. There are many that have ancestors who lived in ancient Israel, but many could have converted to Judaism but lived in another country. Saying that Jews are from one country is like saying that Christians come from Italy, it's just not true. Therefore, no Jews are not from a certain country.
