Most of East European Jews migrated from the west to the east of the continent, and were not descended from the inhabitants of the Khazar Empire. They are actually a fusion of Balkan-Greek Jews from the Byzantine Empire, Babylonian Jews from the Abbasid Caliphate, Yiddish-speaking Jews from Germany, Sephardic Jews fleeing the Spanish inquisition, and Khazars. All these groups intermarried over the centuries, so that the Khazar converts disappeared as a distinguishable ethnical entity and their descendants became fully Jewish with Israelite ancestry.

Any documentation about the recently added remark about Gruzim in Austria? -- Jmabel 20:50, Sep 16, 2004 (UTC)
Total population figures show 3200 georgian jews living in Georgia. Body of the article shows 13,000.
Inconsistent.

As a Georgian Jew, I can tell you that this page is full of errors. First of all, Georgian Jews do not refer to themselves as Gruzim, nor are they referred to as Gruzim by other Georgian speakers. They call themselves Ebraelebi, or Kartveli Ebraeli. The word Gruzim itself is erroneous, and has nothing to do with the Georgian language - GRUZINI or GRUZINIM is used by Hebrew speakers to refer to Georgian Jews. It is not a Georgian word, and definitely should not be used to classify Georgian Jews. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Irawolfe99 ( talk • contribs) 22 May 2006.
Agreed that neither the Georgian Jews themselves nor other Georgians call them "Gruzim", but isn't this the common name in Hebrew? And therefore worth mentioning? It has now been completely removed from the article except, oddly, in the phrase "the Gruzim speak the languages of the peoples surrounding them." - Jmabel | Talk 19:06, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
The first photo identified as 'Tbilisi Synagogue' is in fact a bathhouse and has never served as a religious building of any kind. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.5.16.251 ( talk) 03:19, 16 March 2007 (UTC).
For dedicated editors of this page: The "Related Groups" info was removed from all {{ Infobox Ethnic group}} infoboxes. Comments may be left on the Ethnic groups talk page. Ling.Nut 21:17, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Perhaps this recent photo (Jan. 2007) of the main Tbilisi synagogue (built in 1904), after it underwent major restoration work could be used? http://www.flickr.com/photos/smooglie/366377447/
...and yet I, an ethnic Russian-Ukrainian and atheist with no connection whatsoever to Georgia or Judaism, having spent only 3 years of the past decade in Russia, personally know about 10 of them (and yes, they were Georgian Jews, not Jewish Soviet nationals who have lived in Georgia)? Highly, highly doubtful. Anecdotal evidence from personal conversation points to Georgian Jews identifying themselves as 'Ethnicity - Georgian, Religion - Jewish', when in Russia, probably to avoid a lengthy ethnographic explanation (much like many Soviet expatriates often identify themselves as 'Russian' when living abroad, for simplicity's sake).

What makes Anzor Haimson notable enough to mention as a "prominent" Georgian Jew? A web search suggests that he is a jeweler, but indicates no particular notability. I suggest removing from the list. - Jmabel | Talk 16:18, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Similarly Jakov Katsobashvili. No online mention outside this article. - 16:20, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Conversely, Nodar Djin (born Nodar Djindjihashvili) probably should be linked; he probably deserves an article. - Jmabel | Talk 16:22, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Hello, maybe these photos might be useful.
