The lineage of the Jews goes back to Shem, son of Noah. During the days of their rule in Palestine, they preserved their lineages and recorded them in books that were preserved for this purpose, following the tribes in recording them, so the clans, then the clans, then the houses. When they dispersed at the hands of Sheba, these books were lost and their genealogies were lost. However, they preserved their existence wherever they settled. They did not mix much with the foreign nations around them.
It is no secret that most of the history of the Jews, even the destruction of Jerusalem, is taken from the Torah. It is the treasury of their history and the story of the slavery and injustice that befell them, and the glory and victory that befell them. It is also the book of their revelation and the collection of their beliefs and religious, moral, and civil laws. The one who looks into their history must rely on the Torah to extract their information. Then, completeness is found in what remains of the traces of the Assyrians, Babylonians, and other nations that lived with them and had contact, trade, and contact with them. After that, they are dispersed in the histories of the nations in whose midst they established a people who had neither a homeland nor a country, and a nation for which time had not preserved the virtues of nations. Except for its traces, memories of the past, and one belief about where it went and where it went.
