That's like saying Orthodoxy is a branch of Lutheranism

>What can you tell me about Samaritans /his/?
The Assyrians conquered the Israelites in the North, renamed it Samaria. The Israelite inhabitants became known as Samaritans. When the Assyrian occupation ended, the Israelites in the South, the Jews, basically accused the Northern Hebrews of being Assyrian frauds. They beefed for a while but got along better than either did with any of the occupiers.
>Are they the true branch of Judaism?
They have a more accurate alphabet, but it can't be considered Judaism. It's Samaritanism, both were branches from Yahwism, but it's much different. They still do the same rituals they did thousands of years ago. They have their own Torah which is slightly different from the Jewish version. It's pretty interesting to read.
>What have they been up to for the last 2000 years?
Living under the thumb of whoever was ruling them. The Christians were brutal to them for the most part (except the Crusaders who liked them because of the Good Samaritan story), and Arabs were even worse to them. They have always described Arab rule as the worst part of their history because they weren't considered People of the Book because the Quran never mentions them. They were outright slaughtered many times.

Sort of. They maintained their old customs and were mostly replaced when the others returned from the Babylonian Captivity.

Then later we get Rabbinical Judaism, the modern dominant form, and... it's not older than Christianity.

"""Samaritans""" are European infiltrators who pretend to be Hebrews to push a Zionistic agenda. Look at these white boys, they clearly aren't from the Middle East, nor do they have a drop of Semitic blood in them. They are here to try to convince us Israelites had light skin, which would have been impossible.

The Samaritan Torah agrees with the Septuagint in some places but also apparently shows some 'censoring' in verses where things that they felt could be seen as immodest take place.

How can we tell censorship from lack of embellishment?

Feck off /pol/tard b8ter.
Sure Jews might be different from Samaritans and Yeshua wasn't a Samaritan.

>>3393871
Not sure but it would depend on how they square against the DSS, LXX, and the MT.

I don't hang around white supremacist forums. """Samaritans""" are literal Anglo LARPers, look at >>3393771, I can see his British eyes. If anything, white supremacists like the ones on /pol/ would love the Samaritans because they conform a Eurocentric worldview. Ancient Hebrews were black, get over it.

They're the closest modern genetic proxy we have to how the ancient israelites would have looked. Though now they've gotten so inbred that they have been forced to marry out so that may not last for too much longer. A bunch of them have been killed by her byzantines and others. Many more have left the community; converting to Islam, or Christianity. There are literally like 800 of them left. I doubt there will be any left by the end of the century.

Not true. They have tons of Slavic concubines pumping out as many Samaritan babies as they want.
