IN treating of the Semitic race—a race that gave to humanity the Bible and the Koran, a race that founded Judaism, Christianity, and Islamism—its attitude will be better understood if we approach it through the tribes whose religions and humanitarian³ ideas were eventually to become the religions and humanitarian ideas of the civilized⁴ world.

The beginning of the nation of Israel was the result of the frequent immigration into Palestine of Semites who fused with the aborigines and formed the Ph?nician or Canaanitish people. From the time of Lugalzaggisi (about 4000 b. c.) there were successive Babylonian immigrations also, and from 1500 b. c. onward⁶ there were added to this mixture the Aramean tribes that had previously⁷ inhabited the highlands between the Mesopotamian Valley and the Mediterranean⁸ Sea. Originally pure139 nomads⁹, the Israelites after settling in Canaan became excellent agriculturists,192 and there developed the worship of Yahweh—“the worship of no other god contributing to the sum of humanity’s ethical¹⁰ ideas and spiritual conceptions a tithe¹¹ of the value of that contributed by the worshippers of Yahweh.”193
