Jews came as refugees to India (562 BCE)
HINDUS SAVING JEWS FROM PERSECUTION (562 BCE): 2,000 YEARS AGO, JEWS CAME AS REFUGEES TO INDIA!
The Hindu king gave permission in perpetuity, or, in the more poetic expression of those days, "as long as the world and moon exist" for Jews to live freely, build synagogues, and own property "without conditions attached."
The Jewish community of India is the fourth largest Asian Jewish community after Israel It is also believed that the Jews settled in India when King Solomon was in power. This was a time that teak, ivory, spices, and peacock were popular in trade in Cochin. The still-functioning synagogue in Mattancherry belongs to the Paradesi Jews.
