The Greeks thought the jews were from India.
The Jewish scholar Flavius Josephus (37–100 CE) quotes from Clearchus’s fragment in his Contra Apionem [Against Apion], which has Aristotle say: “Jews are descended from the Indian philosophers. The philosophers, they say, are in India called Kalanians [followers of Kalanos], and in Syria by the territorial name of Judeans, for the district which they inhabit is known as Judea.” (Book I:22) [1]
