New details about the Black presence in the Bible are continually pouring from scholars, professional researchers, and even curious laypeople, providing fresh insights into this subject matter. Millennia old documents, religious iconographies, and oral traditions affirming Black presence in the Bible, once concealed beneath the cloak of deception in the service of white supremacy, are being revealed. The 2024 Russian release of fourteenth-century religious icons depicting Jesus and other biblical figures as Black and the new DNA findings that show the genetic linkage between African peoples and ancient Israel (like the Lemba Tribe of South Africa and the Beta-Israelites of Ethiopia) are undeniable illustrations of such discoveries.
This barrage of new information made it necessary to revise and expand my book, The Bible is Black History, released in 2020. It has been expanded to include updated topics and subject matter, such as:
- Dispelling the Curse of Ham Myth
- Dispelling the Mark of Cain Myth
- Tracing the lineages of the Sons of Noah, Shem, and Ham to show their ethnic linkage to Africa and Japheth to Europe.
- Understanding the apostle Paul for who he actually was: The first Black advocate for White inclusion in the gospel
- And much more!
These new insights further strengthen the proposition that the biblical Hebrews were a people of color who would have been considered Black by modern racial standards.
