We find Sanskrit loan words in the Hebrew Bible, King Solomon and the Buddha share legends, and the first-century Jewish historian Josephus wrote in glowing terms about the Hindus.

From these roots, learn about trading patterns in the ancient world that linked Israel with India. Learn about Jewish travelers’ accounts of the Subcontinent. East may be East and West may be West, but you will learn how the two have met – in fact, how they were never separate.
