Spices, silk, and synagogues by the sea—welcome to the story of India's Jews. In Indian Jews in 10 Minutes, we'll explore how Jewish communities took root on the subcontinent over two thousand years ago. From the ancient Cochin Jews who traded along the Malabar Coast, to the Bene Israel who kept Shabbat even after losing much of their Hebrew, to the Baghdadi Jews who brought new traditions in the 18th century, Indian Jewry is a tapestry of history and culture. We'll look at their unique synagogues, their role in trade and politics, and their vibrant customs blending Jewish tradition with Indian flavor. Though many emigrated to Israel after 1948, their legacy remains alive in India today—through songs, stories, and beautifully preserved synagogues. Ten minutes, three communities, and one reminder that Jewish life has always thrived in the most unexpected places.
