Les '''Juifs de Cochin''', ou '''Juifs de Malabar''' (''Malabar Yehudan'') sont les descendants des [[Juifs]] de l'ancien [[Royaume de Cochin]], actuellement rattaché à l'[[Inde]] du Sud, et comprenait l'actuelle cité portuaire de Kochi<ref> Katz 2000; Koder 1973; Menachery 1998; Thomas Puthiakunnel 1973; Weil 1982; Menachery 1998.</ref> Ils parlaient traditionnellement le [[judéo-malayalam]], un dialecte du [[malayalam]] pratiqué dans l'état de [[Kerala]].

==Histoire== |
|||
<!--Some sources say that the earliest Jews were those who settled in the [[Malabar]] coast during the times of [[Biblical account of King Solomon|King Solomon]] of Israel, and after the Kingdom of [[Israel]] split into two <ref> Katz 2000; Koder 1973; Thomas Puthiakunnel 1973; David de Beth Hillel, 1832; Lord, James Henry 1977.</ref>. They are sometimes referred to as the "black Jews". The [[Paradesi Jews]], also called "White Jews", settled later, coming to India from [[Europe]]an and [[Middle East]]ern nations such as [[Holland]] and [[Spain]], and bringing with them the [[Ladino language]]. Spanish and [[Portugal|Portuguese]] [[Jew]]s ([[Sephardim]]) settled in [[Goa]] in the [[15th century]], but this settlement eventually disappeared. In the [[17th century|17th]] and [[18th century|18th centuries]], Cochin had an influx of Jewish settlers from the [[Middle East]], [[North Africa]] and [[Spain]]. |
|||
Jews came to Kerala and settled as early as [[700 BC]] for trade. An old, but not particularly reliable, tradition says that Jews of Cochin came in mass to [[Cranganore]] (an ancient port, near Cochin) after the destruction of the Temple in 70 [[Common Era|C.E.]] A chieftain by the name of [[Joseph Rabban]], according to local tradition, was granted a principality over the Jews of Cochin by the [[Chera dynasty|Chera]] Emperor of [[Kerala]], [[Bhaskara Ravivarman II]] <ref name=Katz-Koder-Puthiakunnel/>. His descendents had, in effect, their own principality (called [[Anjuvannam]] in Indian sources) for many centuries until a chieftainship dispute broke out between two brothers (one of them named [[Joseph Azar]]) in the 15th century. The dispute led neighboring princes to dispossess them. In [[1524]], the Muslims, backed by the ruler of [[Calicut]] (today called [[Kozhikode]]), attacked the Jews of Cranganore on the pretext that they were tampering with the [[black pepper|pepper]] trade. Most Jews fled to Cochin and went under the protection of the [[Perumpadapu Swaroopam|Hindu Raja]] there. He granted them a site for their own town that later acquired the name "Jew Town" (by which it is still known). |

|||
Unfortunately for the Jews of Cochin, the Portuguese occupied Cochin in this same period and indulged in persecution of the Jews until the [[Netherlands|Dutch]] displaced them in [[1660]]. The Dutch [[Protestant]]s were tolerant, and the Jews prospered. In [[1795]] Cochin was occupied by and came under the control of the British Empire. In the [[19th century]], Cochin Jews lived in the towns of [[Kochi, India|Cochin]], [[Ernakulam]], [[Aluva]] and[[North Paravur]]. |
|||
The Jews of Cochin did not adhere to the [[Talmud]]ic prohibition, followed by other [[Orthodox Jew]]s, against public singing by women, and therefore have a rich tradition of Jewish prayers and narrative songs performed by women in Judeo-Malayalam. Fearful of this tradition dying out, the [[Jewish Music Research Center]] at [[Hebrew University]] has compiled a [[CD]] of these songs. |
|||
==Cochin Jews today== |
|||
Today most of Cochin's Jews have emigrated (principally to [[Israel]]). Large groups have settled in the [[Moshav]]im of [[Nevatim]] in the [[Negev]] (southern [[Israel]]) and [[Yuval]] in the North, in the neighborhood of [[Katamon]] in [[Jerusalem]], in [[Beer Sheva]], [[Dimona]] and [[Yeruham]]. In both places there are Cochin synagogues. In [[Kerala]] there are still three synagogues; the one at [[Mattancherry]], Cochin is still functioning. |
|||
Historically, part of the decline in Kerala's Jewish population can also be attributed to conversion. <ref name=Weil-Menachery-Menachery>Weil S. 1982; Jessay P.M. 1986; Menachery 1973; Menachery 1998.</ref> Jews who converted during the time of [[Thomas the Apostle|St. Thomas]] and later, became [[Kerala|Kerala's]] [[Syrian Malabar Nasrani|Nasrani]] or [[St. Thomas Christians]]. <ref name=Weil-Menachery-Menachery/> While Jewish heritage is most readily observed among the [[Knanaya]] Christian-Jews of Kerala, elements of Jewish practice are present in most [[St. Thomas Christian]] denominations. <ref name=Weil-Menachery-Menachery/>--> |
|||
==Ruby de Cochin== |
|||
<!--[[Ruby Daniel]] emigrated to Israel from Cochin in 1951. Her 1995 memoir, ''Ruby of Cochin'' lists a fourth method for marriage among the Jews of Cochin: that of witness by the entire congregation to a marriage. The memoir includes her experience in the Armed Forces of India as a Jewish woman among Hindu and Muslim men.--> |
