∙ 7y agoAccording to the Torah, Jews are not Caucasians.
The Torah speaks of three branches of post-Flood mankind: Yefet (Jafeth), Ham, and Shem (the three sons of Noah; Genesis ch.10).
The children of Yefet are (broadly speaking) the Europeans (Caucasians).
The children of Ham include the ancient Egyptians, Canaanites, Nubians, Bantu (and sub-Saharan Africans in general), and many others.
The children of Shem include the ancient Assyrians, Elamites, Arameans, Lyddians, and other Semitic peoples. One group of Semites gave rise to the Arabs, Hebrews, Moabites, Ammonites, Edumeans and others.

The Jewish people are descendants of the Hebrews, the descendants of Abraham, who was a Chaldean (from the Ur of Chaldees). Abraham was a descendant of Shem, thus Semitic (of Shem, who was of Noah). So, that equals that THE JEWISH ARE NOT WHITE. Besides, Racial Theory is too limited, because it does not distinctly respect God's separation of the Jewish People (Hebrews) from among the Gentiles-Goyim to be the People of God.
