They're matrilineal because they needed the bloodline to be pure. The only way to be sure back then was to only count the children birthed by Jewish women.
Which I think may have something to do with mitochondrial DNA iirc. Which at least in mammals (like us) is inherited exclusively from the mother.
nobody knew anything about it until 60? years ago
Obviously we had a poor idea regarding some of the specific details and mechanisms involved until this past century.
But I imagine there were a few hunches in medical and biology fields where they might've noticed certain traits being more (or less) likely to be inherited through the mother vs the father.
For thousands of years, the only observable fact 100 percent proving someone is someone's child is watching the kid getting born from the mother's vagina, hence the surety of matrilineage
Or they could have done what every other culture did before feminism metastatized and simply controlled the women.
In any other culture, sure. However, the Jews have a habit of getting kicked out and shoah'd from every country they move into. This genetic bookkeeping was critical for their people, especially when their magic book tells them they are God's Chosen People and the goyim are little more than talking cattle put on earth to serve them.
that'd be antisemitic
As are most things a functioning society requires.
