Am I considered to be part Jewish?

No, there are only two ways to be Jewish: either convert to Judiasm or be born to a Jewish mother. In either one of those cases, you are Jewish. You are never "part" Jewish. Being Jewish is cultural and religious, not a race.

It depends on which Rabbi you ask. If any of your four grandparents were Jewish, than you are Jewish. Your grandmother would be Jewish, since her father was Jewish, making you Jewish. I asked a friend in Israel this question. She said there is no such thing as a 1/8th Jew. She also said that it is not true that it is only through the maternal line. According to the laws of Israel, any of your four grandparents have to be Jewish. If your mother decides to move to Israel, she would be considered Jewish, since she has a grandfather who was Jewish. Only then can you be an Israeli. She would have to declare herself as having Jewish heritage first, before you could be an Israeli, which isn't the same as being a Jew. Any reformed Jewish temple would take you as Jewish and teach you Judaism. However, orthodox and stricter Jews would not take you into their teachings or let you marry into their families. Most of Israel is actually secular and they go by heritage. It doesn't matter what religion your mother practiced. However, orthodox and other very strictly religious Jews expect 100% of your ancestry to be Jewish. Israel does not expect this and does not follow the maternal line thing, nor do reformed Jews.

According to Jewish laws, if your mother is Jewish, you are Jewish. Since your grandmother was at least partially Jewish, your mother is considered Jewish, therefore, you are considered Jewish under Jewish law, as well.

No. By Torah law you are only Jewish if your maternal lineage is Jewish.

In other words, if your mother was Jewish, her mother was Jewish, her mother was Jewish, etc. then you are Jewish.

There is no such thing as "part Jewish". Either you are Jewish because your mother is Jewish, or you are not Jewish at all.

If your father or other male ancestor was Jewish, but your direct maternal lineage is not, then neither are you.

Being Jewish is matrilinear. The mother passes it down, and in fact science has finally caught up with Torah law on this as the "Jewish Gene" has been discovered and it resides in the mtdna (mitochondrial DNA) of Jewish women.

This gene is passed down to both sons and daughters, but only the daughters are able to continue to pass it down. The sons do not pass it down. You can do research on the web on this or contact FamilyTreeDNA.com and speak to Mr. Bennett Greenspan there who does testing for this gene with several geneticists and scientists from major universities.

What the Jewish father passes down (on his Y sex chromosome) is Tribal Lineage. This too has been found genetically. The tribes of Benjamin, Dan, Judah, the Levites, and several others have been identified at this point.

The Kohanim (the Jewish priests, descendents of Aaron the first High Priest appointed by God), which come from the tribe of Levi, have had a huge amount of testing done on them. Please see on the internet "Kohen Gene" or the "Cohen Gene" either one. Over 75% of the Jewish men who claim to come from this priestly lineage have tested positive for this gene at this point.

Anyway, I hope this answers your question. You are not Jewish unless your direct maternal lineage in an unbroken line, is Jewish.

No, you are either Jewish or you are not. Just like you can't be part catholic part sikh. Since your great grandfather was Jewish and not a direct female line, you are not Jewish

You are only Jewish if you were born to a mother who is Jewish, because it was your grandmother's father who was Jewish, you are not Jewish by birth. You have to go through the proper steps to become Jewish.

If your mother's mother's mother's mother was Jewish, then Jews would consider you to be 100% Jewish.

If you were in Nazi Germany, you would be considered a Mischling of the 3rd degree and you and your children would be ineligible for membership in the party and well as any positions in the government. You would have to register as a Mischling and perform usefull work assigned to you. Your sons would be allowed into the army but not eligible for any commissions.

It's passed down through the maternal side of your heritage so unless your grandmothers mother was Jewish, you are not.

Nope.

In order to be considered Jewish your Mother needs to be Jewish. So, if your grandmother's father was Jewish and her mother was not, she would not be Jewish, nor would her child, your mother.

You could be like me if you wish. I am white and live in America so I just claim whatever heritage I want. No one can prove me wrong. In reality I am

Irish

Scottish

German

Dutch

French

English
