BLACK HISTORY TOLD BY
THE PROPHETS:
PART 1:
COLOR
This study will be on “Black
History” taken directly from the pages of the Bible. Our history isn’t
hidden sisters and brothers, all we need to do is take time and do a
little research.
Ethiopia is the nation in
which the Greeks and the Romans described as “Aithops” (to
scorch-faces), lays south of Egypt. When the Greeks and the
Romans came in contact with the Hebrews they thought they were of
Ethiopian descent. The reason for the mix up was, the Hebrews and the
Ethiopian’s physical appearance were and still remain the same. After
observation of these two peoples or nations the Greeks concluded that
these people were not of the same race. The Ethiopians, which are call
Cushites in the Bible, are descendents of Ham (Noah’s second oldest
son). We will use the sons of Ham to show the color or complexion of the
Hebrew Israelites. We will begin this study in Genesis chapter 10 with
Noah’s sons after the flood populated the entire earth. Let us take a
look at Japheth first, he is the father of the Gentiles.
Now
these are the generations of the sons of Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth:
and unto them were sons born after the flood. The sons of Japheth; Gomer,
and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras. And
the sons of Gomer;Ashkenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah. And the sons of
Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. By these were the
isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his
tongue, after their families, in their nations. (Genesis
10:1-5)
We have just learned something. We
have found out that the Gentiles are the sons of Japheth. The roman
christian community will have us to believe if we are not Jews we are
Gentiles. A Jew is a person that is born out of the tribe Judah, which
is one of the tribes of Israel. Levi is also one of the tribes of Israel
he or she out of this tribe isn’t a Jew. But, these tribes are still out
of the family of Israel. The word Gentile has nothing to do with your
beliefs or faith it has something to do with lineage. Gentiles are
simply sons of Japheth who today we call Europeans or white people. What
we will do now is take a look at the sons of Ham. These are the sons of
Noah that we will use to identify the color of the Israel.
And the sons of Ham; Cush, and
Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. And the sons of Cush; Seba, and Havilah,
and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtechah: and the sons of Raamah; Sheba,
and Dedan. (Genesis 10:6-7)
Cush
is Ham’s oldest son. When the Cushites were seen by the Greeks they
called them “Athiops”, this is a Greek word.
·
Aitho : to scorch
·
Ops : the face
The
Greeks called them burnt faces. The word we use today is Ethiopian which
is derived from the word “Athiops.” Ham’s second son Mizraim is also
called Egypt. The word
Egypt is also a description, it is a word for black in Greek. To make a
long story short, the sons Ham physical appearance is what the Gentiles
today call black people. Let us take a look at a few more sons of Ham.
And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a
mighty one in the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD:
wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.
And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and
Calneh, in the land of Shinar. (Genesis
10:8-10)
Nimrod
was also a son of Ham through Cush (Ethiopian). There are other
publications about Nimrod but the Bible only states he was a mighty
hunter and that he established Babel, which is ancient Babylon. This
kingdom was set up thousands of years before Nebuchadnezzar the Gentile
ruled Babylon. In the next verse we will find another nation which built
Nineveh take a look.
Out of that land went forth Asshur, and
builded Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah, And Resen between
Nineveh and Calah: the same is a great city. (Genesis
10:11-12)
Asshur
established Nineveh. Asshur is the father of the Assryians, check some
of the History books, and find some pictures on these peoples. You will
see they were Negroid as the Gentiles called them. Let’s take a look at
a few more sons of Ham, then we will compare their appearances to the
sons of Jacob. We will see if they look anything like the modern day
Jew.
And Mizraim begat Ludim, and Anamim, and
Lehabim, and Naphtuhim,
And Pathrusim, and Casluhim, (out
of whom came Philistim,) and Caphtorim. (Genesis
10:13-14)
Mizraim or Egypt is Ham’s second oldest son. We see the Philistines came
through Mizraim. The entertainment industry depicts the Egyptians as
being Gentiles or Europeans. We see that the scripture doesn’t agree
with the status quo neither does recorded history. Now, that we have
taken a look at the sons Ham. Let’s put the Sons of Ham shoulder to
shoulder with the son’s of Jacob. Then we will see what the real
Israelites look like. Let’s start in Genesis chapter 37. In this chapter
we will see how Israel came in contact with the sons of Ham. We will
begin with Joseph.
And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his
father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.
These are the generations of
Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his
brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of
Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their
evil report. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because
he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours.
And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his
brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him. (Genesis
37:1-4)
As you can see Joseph
was loved more than his brethren. His brothers hated him because Israel
showed favoritism toward him. Joseph’s brothers were feeding the flock
and Israel sent Joseph out to see how they were doing. Joseph was
wandering around in a field, a man came up, and asked him “who was he
looking for?” Joseph told the man that he was looking for his brothers
that was feeding the flock. The man then told Joseph where they were.
When Joseph was walking toward his brothers they conspired to kill him.
They were going to tell Israel their father that Joseph was killed by a
wild animal. But, Ruben the elder brother talked them out of it. Let’s
see what happened next. And it came to pass, when Joseph was
come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph out of his coat, his
coat of many colours that was on him; And they took him, and cast him
into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it. (Genesis
37:23-24)
After this took place, Judah convinced the others to sale Joseph to the
Ishmaelites (Arabs). Note what takes place next. Then there
passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out
of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of
silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt. (Genesis
37:28)
Now
we see how Joseph arrived in Egypt. His own brethren sold him into
slavery. The next thing that happened to Joseph was, he was sold by the
Ishmaelites onto an officer of Pharaoh. Potiphar (captain of the guard)
made Joseph overseer over his house. Potiphar’s wife was attracted to
Joseph and she wanted him to lie with her. Joseph refused, and ran away
from her. After Joseph ran from the house she called the men of the
house and said, “he (Potiphar) hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock
us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.”
Of course she lied, because Joseph walked in the commandments of the
Lord. Joseph was then thrown in jail. While he was there he became in
charge of the jail. It came to pass after these things, that the butler
of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of
Egypt, and Pharaoh put them into the prison. The captain of the guard
charged Joseph with them and he served them. Both of these men had
dreams one night. When Joseph saw them they appeared unto him as being
sad. He asked them what was wrong, they told him their dreams. The Lord
told Joseph the interpretation of the dreams. Joseph then explained the
dreams to the men. Let’s take a look at the interpretations of the
butler’s dreams, we will see the significance of it in a moments.
And Joseph said unto him, This is
the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days: Yet within
three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy
place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the
former manner when thou wast his butler. (Genesis
40:12-13)
Note
what Joseph says to the butler after this.
But think on me when it shall
be well with thee, and show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make
mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house: For indeed I
was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I
done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon. (Genesis
40:14-15)
The
baker wasn’t restored to his position. He was hanged on a tree in three
days as Joseph said. The butler when he was restored to his position he
had forgotten about Joseph. After two years the butler was standing in
the presents of Pharaoh. Pharaoh told his servants of two dreams that he
had. This is when the butler remembered Joseph. Let’s pick this up in
Genesis chapter 41 and take a look at Pharaoh’s dream and also see how
Joseph became second in the kingdom answering only to Pharaoh.
And it came to pass at the end of two full
years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river. And,
behold, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and
fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow. And, behold, seven other kine came
up after them out of the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood
by the other kine upon the brink of the river. And the ill favoured and
leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So
Pharaoh awoke. And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold,
seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. And, behold,
seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them. And
the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh
awoke, and, behold, it was a dream. And it came to pass in the morning
that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the
magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them
his dream; but there was none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh. (Genesis
41:1-8)
Pharaoh had these dreams and no one could interpret them. The butler
then remember Joseph and told Pharaoh he knew of a Hebrew in the prison
that interpreted his dream. Pharaoh then called Joseph into his house,
the Lord told Joseph the dream, and he told the interpretation unto
Pharaoh. Joseph explains to Pharaoh that there will be seven years of
plenty and seven year of drought. Joseph states, “find a man discreet
and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. Appoint officers over the
land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven
plenteous years.” Pharaoh states, “Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all
this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art.” This is where
Joseph becomes second in the kingdom of Egypt.
Now
that we have placed Joseph in the house of Pharaoh king of Egypt, let’s
begin to show that the sons of Ham and the Israelites look identical,
meaning these peoples are both black as the Gentiles call us today. Then
you will begin to see black is a color not a nation of people. Let’s
pick this up where Joseph’s brothers came down into Egypt to buy food
during the seven years of drought we will go into Genesis chapter 42.
And the sons of Israel came to
buy corn among those that came: for the famine was in the land of
Canaan. And Joseph was the governor over the
land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land: and
Joseph's brethren came, and bowed down themselves before him with their
faces to the earth. (Genesis 42: 5-6)
Note what happens next.
And Joseph knew his brethren, but
they knew not him. (Genesis 42:8)
Why
couldn’t his own brothers recognize him? Remember they sold him as a
slave? One day you a are slave the next day you are a governor of a
country. They simply did not expect their brother to be in that
position. If Joseph look like a so-called Jew of today they would have
recognize him without a problem. Why? The modern day jew looks like a
Gentile (white). They would have easily pointed him out and probably
headed for the hills without saying anything to him for what they had
done to Joseph. It would look very strange to have a white person
sitting as second in a kingdom of all black people. They would have
known him right away. Joseph noticed that his brothers did not recognize
him. So he hid his identity even more by speaking unto them by an
interpreter. Take a look.
And they knew not that Joseph
understood them; for he spake unto them by an interpreter. (Genesis
42:23)
Let’s go into 50th chapter of Genesis and see
why Joseph brothers could not tell the difference between an Israelite
and the Egyptian. Joseph reveled himself to his brothers latter own. But
what we want to do is see if we can distinguish the Sons of Ham from the
Sons of Israel. Let’s take a look at the death of Joseph’s father Jacob.
My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die:
in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there
shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my
father, and I will come again. (Genesis 50:5)
Pay
close attention to who went with Joseph to bury Jacob (Israel).
And Joseph went up to bury his father: and
with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh,
the elders of his house, and
all the elders of the land of Egypt, And
all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and
his father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and
their herds, they left in the land of Goshen. And there went up with him
both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company. And they
came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan, and there
they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a
mourning for his father seven days. And when the inhabitants of the
land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said,
This is a
grievous mourning to the Egyptians:
wherefore the name of it was called Abelmizraim, which is beyond Jordan.
(Genesis 50:7-11)
Who
went up to bury Jacob? All the servants of Pharaoh and elders of his
house, all the elders of the land of Egypt, all the house of Joseph, and
his brethren, and his father's house. And what did the Cannanites say
(which are also sons of Ham)? When the inhabitants of the land, the
Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This is a
grievous mourning to the Egyptians. Why would they say “it was grievous
mourning for the Egyptians,” and not say “this is a grievous mourning
for the Israelites and the Egyptians. Just as we wear the clothes of the
Gentiles here in the U.S. the Israelites wore Egyptian attire. This is
one point showing we are not able to distinguish the sons of Ham from
the true Israelites. But, we can’t stop here, let’s continue and see
more Israelite’s that were seen by other nations and were mistaken for
the sons of Ham.
Now
let’s take a look at another Israelite that was brought into the house
of Pharaoh. After the death of Joseph and all his brethren and all that
generation. The children of Israel were fruitful and increased
abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was
filled with them. Take a look at what happened next.
Now there arose up a new king
over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. And he said unto his people, Behold,
the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: (Exodus
1:8-9)
The
Egyptians appointed taskmaster over them, and put them in hard bondage.
The Israelites were forced to build the Pharaoh’s treasure cities. If
you’ve always wondered who built the pyramids it was the Israelites. But
no matter how hard the bondage was Israel continued to multiply. Pharaoh
then tried something else, take a look.
And Pharaoh charged all his
people, saying, Every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and
every daughter ye shall save alive. (Exodus
1:22)
Why
would Pharaoh want all the male children killed? The reason Pharaoh did
this is, the man carries the seed. If you kill all the males from any
particular nations, that nation would cease to exists. (You can find an
example of the man carrying the seed in the book of Ruth). Let’s go
into the Exodus chapter 2 and bring another Israelite into the House of
Pharaoh.
And there went a man of the house of Levi,
and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
And the woman conceived, and bare
a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him
three months. And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him
an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, and put
the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's brink.
And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. And the
daughter of
Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens
walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the
flags, she sent her maid to fetch it. And when she had opened it, she
saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on
him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children. Then said his
sister to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the
Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? And Pharaoh's
daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's
mother. (Exodus 2:1-8)
Note
the 8th verse, and Pharaoh's daughter said to her, go. And
the maid went and called the child's mother. Moses was nursed by his
mother. If you have ever seen the movie “The Ten Commandments” Moses did
not find out he was Hebrew until he was told. Let’s see if Moses knew
that he was and Hebrew Israelite. Let us see if the movie had any truth
in it.
And the child grew, and she
brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she
called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the
water. And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that
he went out unto his brethren, and looked
on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew,
one of his brethren. And he looked this
way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the
Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. (Exodus
2:10-12)
Note
what the scripture says, And it came to pass in those days, when Moses
was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their
burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his
brethren. As you can see Moses was well aware of his nationality. After
Moses killed the Egyptian, Pharaoh became aware of what Moses had done.
And he fled to the land of Midian. Let’s skip down to the 15th
verse and see another case of mistaken identity.
Now when Pharaoh heard this
thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh,
and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.
Now the priest of Midian had
seven daughters: and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to
water their father's flock. And the shepherds came and drove them away:
but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. And when
they came to Reuel their father, he said, How is it that ye are come so
soon to day? And they said,
An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the
shepherds, and also drew water enough for us, and watered the
flock. (Exodus 2: 15-19)
Note
the 19th verse, they said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of
the hand of the shepherds.” Was Moses an Egyptian? No! Just as the
Cannanites mistook Joseph and his brethren for Egyptians we have the
same case here with Moses. Moses simply wore the Egyptians clothing.
Let’s take a look at the Exodus of the children of Israel from Egypt,
and see what finally prompted pharaoh to let Israel
go.
And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in
the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of
months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. (Exodus
12:1-2)
This
is the Lords Passover and must be observed in its season. Israel was
informed by the Lord through Moses to place blood over the doorpost of
their houses. This is symbolic for being under the blood of Jesus, but
that’s another study. Note what the Lord says in the 12th
verse.
For I will pass through the land
of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of
Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will
execute judgment: I am the LORD. (Exodus
12:12)
Let
see if the Lord kept His Word.
And it came to pass, that at midnight the
LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of
Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that
was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle. (Exodus
12:29)
Notice
it says “ in the Land of Egypt, the Lord killed all the first born.” You
will see the point in a moment. Now take a look at the 78th
Psalm.
And smote all the firstborn in
Egypt; the chief of their strength in the
tabernacles of Ham: (Psalms 78:51)
What
is a tabernacle? It is a dwelling place. Where was Israel held captive?
In the tabernacle of Ham. Let’s take another look at this in the 105th
Psalm.
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob
sojourned in the land of Ham. And he increased his people greatly; and
made them stronger than their enemies. He turned their heart to hate his
people, to deal subtly with his servants. He sent Moses his servant; and
Aaron whom he had chosen. They showed his signs among them, and wonders
in the land of Ham. (Psalms
105:23-27)
Sisters and brother let’s reason together. All the souls that came with
Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his loins, besides Jacob's sons'
wives, all the souls were sixty-six. And the sons of Joseph, which were
born him in Egypt, were two souls: all the souls of the house of Jacob,
which came into Egypt, were seventy. Here we have seventy people that
came down into Egypt. Were do you think they got their wives? Where did
they dwell? In the tabernacle of Ham. They got their wives from among
the children of Ham, which are a black people. We have seen that these
two nations can not be separated by their appearance. If you have two
black people co-habitating their offspring will also be black. Here is
and example. Let’s say if there were an Englishman and German standing
together, could you tell them apart? No! Their appearances are the same,
meaning they’re complexions are light. As for Israel and the Hamites
they both have a dark complexion and cannot be distinguished by their
appearance.
Now
that we see the Israelite and the Hamites are both black and cannot be
separated by their appearance, let’s bring the chief Israelite into the
picture. Who might that be? Jesus the creator of all things. Note were
the Lord sends Jesus, Joseph, and Mary.
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of
Judaea in the days of Herod the king,
behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, (Matthew
2:1)
Just
as Pharaoh began to kill all the Israelite males, so did Herod. Just as
Moses was hid in the house of Pharaoh, Jesus was hidden in the land of
Egypt. Take a look at what Gabriel told Joseph.
And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the
Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and
take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be
thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child
to destroy him. (Matthew 2:13)
Why
would the family flee into Egypt? Simple, you would have another black
family among many black families. If Jesus looked like the people that
call themselves Jews today it would have been easy to locate him. Let’s
pursue Jesus’ nationality for a moment so that we will have no doubt in
our minds that He was an Israelite. Note what John says about his coming
in the flesh.
He was in the world, and the world was made
by him, and the world knew him not.
He came unto his own, and his own
received him not. (John 1:10-11)
Who
was His own? Israel is His people. They were then and they are now. I
cannot understand how the people that call themselves christians say,
“We have Jesus and the Israelites have Moses.” The entire Bible is about
Jesus and His people Israel, and how they came in contact with other
people of the world. Take a look at these verses.
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to
be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, (Which he had promised
afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Concerning his Son Jesus
Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of
David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God
with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection
from the dead: (Romans 1:1-4)
Note
what the 3rd verse says, “Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our
Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh.” David
was the second king that ruled all 12 tribes of Israel. David was from
the tribe of Judah, so if David is from the tribe of Judah what tribe
did Jesus come out of? JUDAH! If Jesus came out of Israel what color
would He be? Remember the verse in John says, “He came unto His own?” He
is black, as the Gentiles call us today. There are several other verses
that describe the Lord, but people will not except the true fact that He
was and still is black. Note who Paul says Jesus looks like.
God, who at sundry times and in divers
manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath
in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,
whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the
worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory,
and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by
the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down
on the right hand of the Majesty on high; (Hebrews
1:1-3)
Note
what it says in the 3rd verse, “Who being the brightness of
his (the Father) glory, and the express image of his person.” Do you
know what the word express means? This is the definition.
·
Express: (adj)
characterized by full precise expression.
Now
if Jesus is the express image of the Father what does that tell you?
That means the Father Himself is black. Let’s move on to another
Israelite that the Romans claim is a Gentile. This is the Apostle Paul,
note what the Roman solider says to him.
And as Paul was to be led into the castle,
he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst
thou speak Greek? Art not thou that Egyptian,
which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the
wilderness four thousand men that were murderers? (Acts
21:37-38)
Note
what the solider says, “Art not thou that Egyptian.” This is a Gentile
solider and he can’t tell the difference between the Egyptian, which is
a son of Ham or Paul, the Israelite. In the 39th verse of
this chapter Paul states he is a Jew. Jew was only used for
identification, just as today people are not familiar with the other 11
tribes. Let’s see what tribe Paul is a member of.
I say then, Hath God cast away his people?
God forbid. For I also am an Israelite,
of the seed of Abraham,
of the tribe of Benjamin. (Romans
11:1)
Once
again we have had another case of mistaken identity between a son of Ham
and a son of Jacob.
Now
let’s return to the Old book and note what the Lord had the Prophet Amos
to write. The Lord had this verse we are about to read placed here so
there would be no mistake how the true Israelites looked then and now.
Not one Gentile (European) will ever admit to be one of these people.
Take a look.
Are ye
not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel?
saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt?
and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir? (Amos
9:7)
Remember the Ethiopians are the Cushites. We discussed that at the
beginning of the class. Note what it says, “Are ye not as children of
the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel?” Ethiopians are still
around today and they have come down through thousands of years and
still remain the same complexion. What should that tell you? That Israel
is the same color as they were in the beginning.
One
more thing before we end this study. Being that we have been using the
Egyptians to point out the color of Israel, we should ask ourselves a
couple of questions. Are the Egyptians still in their Land? Why do the
People that call themselves Egyptians today do not look like any of the
statues or any of the ancient artifacts? Yes they are still in their
land. But the people that rule Egypt are not the sons of Ham. Let’s take
a look at a prophecy in the Book of Isaiah and also an article from the
Grolier Encyclopedia. Let’s see who rules Egypt at this time and when
they came into power. Let’s look at Isaiah first.
The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD
rideth upon a swift cloud, and shall come into Egypt: and the idols of
Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt
in the midst of it. And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians:
and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one
against his neighbour; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will
destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to
the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the
wizards. And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a
cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over
them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts. (Isaiah
19:1-4)
Who is
this cruel Lord? Take a look.
Egyptians' strong identity extends back to the 4th
millennium
©
when the ancient Egyptian civilization was established.
Conquered by the Arabs during the 7th century,
Egypt was part of the Ottoman Empire from 1517 to 1798 and was held by
the British from 1882 to 1922. It then became an independent monarchy.
The monarchy was abolished after a military coup in 1952, and in 1954,
Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser became president, shaping Egypt into the
socialist republic it is today. Egypt was a leading belligerent in four
Arab-Israeli Wars, but in 1979 President Anwar al-Sadat signed a peace
treaty with the Israelis. [1]Copyright

The Arabs are the cruel lord, and they remain in power to
this very day. This is why the artifacts do not look like the people who
rule the nation. The Arabs also built the Aswan High Dam and covered
many ancient artifacts with water from the Nile.
Now that we have seen the real color or complexion of the
real Israelites you should have no doubt in your mind that the people
that are in Jerusalem that call themselves Jews are not.
Peace unto all that fear God and keep His commandment, in
Jesus names, Amen.
Judah Israel.
