No. They moved away from the land because they were prohibited from owning it and, if it were ever made legal in for a brief spell (in Austria, for example), they just never wanted to go back.
...what are you talking about? Samaritans? Samaritans were an ancient people who were around when the majority of Jews still lived in the semi-autonomous state of Judea.
What do Samaritans have to do with Jews' inability to own land in EUROPE?
That's bullshyt. There's nothing in the Jewish religion that requires anyone to "stray from the farm." You're making things up.
Jews did not have heavy involvement in the slave trade.
They were very few Jewish slavers or slave traders, with the exception of a brief period where British colonists could not trade with Spanish colonists, so recently exiled Dutch Jews found themselves with control of the slave trade on two Caribbean island and even more briefly Brazil. This lasted for a period of ~20 years.
Jews did not "fund many" of the slave ships. The Dutch East India Company and its clones were not predominantly Jewish institutions.
Jews played no major role in slavery, period. And they certainly didn't mastermind the institution.[/QUOTE]
WHy nikkas so aggressive when I ask questions?
Samaritans- ethnoreligious people? Also prohibited from owning land but still farmed using other people's land. Prohibition from owning land didn't mean you couldn't farm. I bring them up because they had a similar situation, what I'm saying is prohibition itself didn't stop jews from farming especially since they moved from farming before they were prohibited from owning land.

I'm sorry but does the jewish religion not require a focus on literacy?
You even said it yourself
1. High rate of literacy among Jewish male population. Men were traditionally expected to read and study the Torah while women did the day-to-day work, which morphed into strong reading skills as well as argumentation skills (the Kabbalah was meant to be debated). This skill set is directly applicable to the legal field.
No where did I say their religion says they can't farm but farming did interfere with them focusing on things like their literacy
