Joe, below is the definition of Sephardi. According to Websters, the Semitic Jew is one of the tribes of the Semites that also includes the Arabs. You and Albert both mention Khazar's blood.....and maybe that connects the European Jew with the Semitic Jew. But I had always understood that the Semitic Jew and the Ashkenazi/Sephardi/European Jew were from two different branches.
