Theories earlier expressed by the author in his article “The Khazar Conversion to Judaism” in the Hebrew periodical Zion (1941), but offers a much richer documentation, especially in Jewish sources. The Jewish accounts say that the Khazar ruling class was converted to Judaism toward the middle of the 8th century. Some modern scholars think this date is too early by about a hundred years, but Mr. Dunlop judges the weight of the evidence to be in favor of the tradition.
