Jewish Rabbi Harry Rozenberg has openly acknowledged that the Igbo tribe carries the Cohen Y-chromosome DNA marker, confirming their lineage as true Hebrew Israelites. This is crucial because it aligns with historical records, scientific evidence, and biblical prophecy, providing multiple witnesses to the truth.
The Bible teaches that two or more witnesses establish a matter (Deuteronomy 19:15). In addition to DNA evidence, we have historical accounts. Consider Olaudah Equiano, an Igbo man who was kidnapped at age 11 during the transatlantic slave trade. He bought his freedom in 1766 and published his autobiography in 1789, offering firsthand testimony of the brutalities of slavery. Equiano’s writings reveal his strong connection to Hebrew traditions, further supporting the claim that the Igbo are Israelites.
Modern DNA studies also corroborate this. The Lemba people of Zimbabwe, like the Igbo, carry the same Cohen Y-chromosome, a genetic marker linked to the priestly line of Israel. These findings are supported by both history and science, revealing the direct connection of African-descended peoples, such as African Americans, to the tribes of Israel. They are not Africans by origin—they are black Jews from the tribe of Judah.
Despite skepticism, the evidence is clear. DNA is the "smoking gun," connecting these communities to their biblical heritage, confirming that the true Hebrews are not who the world has been led to believe. The narrative of the so-called “lost tribes” isn’t lost at all; it’s been preserved through both scripture and science.
