Bible Note: How did you come to the conclusion that the Palestinians are descendents of the Philistines? I haven't digested the evidence.

DNA reports may show similarity between Jews and Palestinians. http://bioanthropology.huji.ac.il/pdf/Nebel2000.pdf High-resolution Y chromosome haplotypes of Israeli and Palestinian Arabs reveal geographic substructure and substantial overlap with haplotypes of Jews http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089/109065703321560976 Y-Chromosom DNA Haplotypes in Jews: Comparisons with Lebanese and Palestinians search in http://www.bethel.edu for PhilistinesPOTW.pdf PHILISTINES by David M.Howard, Jr. http://books.google.com/books search for "Biblical Peoples" http://www.jogg.info/11/coffman.pdf A MOSAIC OF PEOPLE: THE JEWISH STORY AND A REASSESSMENT OF THE DNA EVIDENCE |
