The legend of The Lost Tribes of Israel remained for scholars, historians, archeologists, anthropologists and Hebraists a fascinating topic for millennia. When Israel faced an imperial conquest in the hands of the Assyrian empire in 722 B.C. as earlier warned by prophets Isaiah and Hosea, the nation also went on exile and into what seemed oblivion. A people who for penalty of apostasy became a dispersed people across the globe for nearly three thousand years creating a puzzle of identity and location for so long has suddenly began to emerge from the shadows of time. The account of their journey and experiences over this period had largely remained conjectures as they assimilated amongst foreign cultures. The Igbo, sojourned in the two sides of lower Niger, one of Africas great rivers second only to the Nile and like other exiled tribes of Israel was relatively unknown to those who never had any contacts with them. The era of trans-Atlantic forced migrations and European colonization opened this connection. The exposition of a peoples beliefs, behavior, attitudes and values within religious, cultural and political context had only affirmed their origin and identity.

Among the 20 to 30 million Igbo people in Nigeria there is a widespread belief that the Igbo originated in ancient Israel. Recently a number of Igbo Jewish communities have been established in Nigeria. Although some Igbo have made their way to Israel, the Israeli public is largely unaware of the fact that that there are in addition of 20 to 30 million people in Nigeria that are called by some, 'the Jews of West Africa.' This book offers for the first time an in-depth study and a genealogical history of the Igbo's long term narrative of a possible Jewish origin.

"Hebrew Igbo Republics" sets out to demonstrate that the Igbos of West Africa, the group known and described as the Jews of Africa, and Biafrans by many, practice a culture and a religion that bring to life the culture and religion of the Israelites of the Bible. The author resurrects biblical characters by showing that they used idioms which correspond to idioms used by Igbos since immemorial times. Awesomely the Igbo expression for marriage "ima ogodo" was what Ruth told Boaz to do when she asked him to marry her through a Levirate arrangement. And we find in the book rock-solid evidence that the Igbos retain what could be the nearest name for Israel's biblical religion and culture. A translation of the Igbo phrase O me na ana leads us to Deuteronomy 6:1. You will be spell-bound when you see that the elusive name of the Hebrew God has a connection to "Chi" which is the Igbo word for God or personal God. And in this book the author shows that many Igbo and Hebrew words which are close in spelling mean the same things. Igbo urimmu and Hebrew urim both mean light. Igbo aru and Hebrew ar mean abomination, forbidden. DNA? The book gives us evidence sourced from MyHeritage DNA company that Igbo genes are in the Middle East gene pool. The reader should read and see for himself or herself what this monograph carries. The book says to all scholars in biblical, Jewish, Igbo, Middle Eastern, African, Christian and Religious studies, we have work to do! We need to go back to the drawing boards!

There is a widespread belief among the 20 to 30 million Igbo people of Nigeria that the Igbo people originated in ancient Israel. A number of Igbo Jewish communities have recently been established in Nigeria. Although some Igbo have found their way to Israel, the Israeli public is largely unaware of the fact that there are an additional 20 to 30 million Igbo people in Nigeria, who have been referred to by some as The Jews of West Africa. Igbo Jewish identity has significant political implications in Nigeria and Israel. This book offers a well-researched analysis and history of the long-standing and controversial Igbo narrative of possible Jewish origins, thereby creating a new reading of Igbo history. This interdisciplinary research monograph describes different layers of identity and shows step by step through the last 250 years of Igbo history how Jewish identification was part of Igbo identity and cultural practice. The book then shows the place of the Igbo in post-Biafran Nigeria and how, in the ethnically and religiously fragmented state, the judaizing Igbo, encouraged by parts of the Jewish world, are increasingly orienting themselves towards normative Judaism. The author offers a treasure trove of documented information about Nigerian Igbo Jewish identity, their relationship to the State of Israel, and their tragic recent history. For several centuries there have been claims and assertions by both historians and social scientists that this very ingenious ethnic nationality is a lost tribe of Israel? Noting the undeniable cultural, behavioral, religious and linguistic similarities between the Igbos and the Jews, as first officially described in a book written in the late 18th century. This book, The African African Tribe Of Jewish Descent: a tale of two nations connected by history, is an open window to the lives and relationship between these two great nations.
