Jews in India, mainly those in Maharashtra are called Bene Israels, which in Hebrew means 'Sons of Israel"". The author goes into their history, starting from the Galilee, going into details about the various possibilities about their journey, where, what, and how did they come, starting from their land of origin to their landing on the shores of India, more than 2000 years ago. Then what happened over the years to their language, customs, culture, mode of dress, professions, prayers etc. Why did they choose the name Bene Israel for themselves, their own names, surnames with associated causes and references. Their historical background over the last 2000 years up to the present ie 2016.
