Were The Israelites Black?

DAII posted this in the King James thread.......

"First time I heard about King James' moral failings was on the streets of New York as a young teen ... by the Black Hebrew Israelite cult which preaches hardcore on New York City streets, subway stations, parks, you name it ."



The Israelites couldn't have been Black. The Black culture in Africa has never produced much of anything of cultural value including a written language. The Israelites accomplished far too much socially, economically and culturally for them to have been Black.

Paul was a redneck. 'Cause he said "I reckon".

OMW
You're kidding me, right?

Let's start with Egypt.

Even the Sumerian culture has roots in African (and Asian) civilizations ... especially due to its relationship to the Nile

In their own literature, the Sumerians referred to themselves as "blackheads."

I never cease to be amazed at the Western-centric view American Christians hold .... and how it permeates even to their theology and politics ... even their views on dress code holiness

What? Egypt? Ethiopia? Ever hear of the Zulu tribe?

BTW Israelites were a semetic tribe. They probably looked like arabs
