Ummm...that link does not relate to my question. @Taylor<3sRin

Answer 5

It actually does, just look at it and actually read it.

Answer 6

Google is pretty sweet. For reference I'm Jewish so there's that.
They both observe the sabbath
They both don't eat pig (pork/bacon etc.) because of the restrictions in Deuteronomy
They both circumcise baby boys

These bullet points should help you out

Answer 7

Thanks, Bibby. Once I get my graph for that done, do you mind to check it?

Answer 8

I don't get it. Are you writing an essay or just making a graph? Or are you making a graph to help visualize an essay?

Answer 9

I have to make a Venn diagram, which is a diagram where you compare and contrast two things.

Answer 10

ah, well I'll be here. Have fun diagramming

Answer 11

Ok, thanks!

Answer 12

I'll probably post it later on today because I am working on another project for history now.

Answer 13

Here are some differences:
They circumcise their boys at 8 years old instead of 8 days old like the Jews do.
The lemba are hebrews but not jews. They say they're descendants of the israelites. Modern Judaism/Judaism in general came AFTER the israelite tribes were sent into exile.
