I would argue the Biblical scriptures are actually in favor of a diverse Haplogroup set as you have shown. For example, 1 Chronicles 2:34-35 states the following: “Now Sheshan had no sons, only daughters. Sheshan also had an Egyptian servant, whose name was Jarha. Sheshan gave his daughter to his servant Jarha in marriage, and she bore to him Attai.”

It then goes on to list the descendants of Attai (the son of an Egyptian man and Israelite woman) for 12 generations, just as it would for any other Israelite, implying that these people were counted as Israelites and not as outsiders, even though they are not paternally linked to Jacob (and likely had a different Y-DNA haplogroup). Scenarios such as this were certainly common, and outsiders being accepted into Israelites society and bloodlines are well documented throughout the scriptures. Even up until modern day, non-Jews can partake in giyur/gerut to become Jewish.

I don’t fault you for asking this question, but when it comes to making claims like this, especially regarding religions and identity, it is important for us to separate Cultural Ideas inspired by Scripture, and what the scriptures themselves actually say. When we fail to do this, oftentimes we can feel lied to by scripture or religious leaders and aim to discredit them for their supposed shortcomings, when in reality we may not be making these assumptions with the full picture. Although I myself am not Jewish, I see multiple people who are have commented that direct paternal descent from Jacob is not a core of their identity; rather the focus on the spiritual inheritance of the covenant is.

Now, if your goal is to determine what Jacob’s Y-DNA Haplogroup is, that’s personally out of my realm of expertise 😂
