| bible is black history book: The Bible is Black History Theron D. Williams, 2020 We live in an age when younger African-American Christians are asking tough questions that previous generations would dare not ask. This generation doesn't hesitate to question the validity of the Scriptures, the efficacy of the church and even the historicity of Jesus. Young people are becoming increasingly curious as to what role, if any, did people of African descent play in biblical history? Or, if the Bible is devoid of Black presence, and is merely a book by Europeans, about Europeans and for Europeans to the exclusion of other races and ethnicities? Dr. Theron D. Williams makes a significant contribution to this conversation by answering the difficult questions this generation fearlessly poses. Dr. Williams uses facts from the Bible, well-respected historians, scientists, and DNA evidence to prove that Black people comprised the biblical Israelite community. He also shares historical images from the ancient catacombs that vividly depict the true likeness of the biblical Israelites. This book does not change the biblical text, but it will change how you understand it. |

| bible is black history book: Oneness Embraced Tony Evans, 2015-09-24 Oneness is hard to achieve. Let the kingdom unity of Scripture point the way. Today’s world is torn apart. Tension is everywhere. Brother is pitted against brother, sister against sister, citizen against citizen, even Christian against Christian. It’s so hard to find agreement—much less real harmony—in our polarized society. Can there be a way forward? Tony Evans knows how elusive unity can be. As a black man who’s also a leader in white evangelicalism, he understands how hard it can be to bring these worlds together. Yet he’s convinced that the gospel provides a way for Christians to find oneness despite the things that divide us. In the Word of God, we find a kingdom-based approach to matters of history, culture, the church, and social justice. In this book, you’ll get: A Biblical Look at Oneness A Historical View of the Black Church A Kingdom Vision for Societal Impact Although oneness is hard to achieve, the Christian must never stop striving. It’s a kingdom imperative. As Tony reminds us, “Glorifying God is our ultimate goal. Oneness exists to enable us to reach our goal.” |

| bible is black history book: Biblical Black History C. J. Wilson, 2017-02-27 From Adam to you, the reader, looking at the terms DUST, DARKNESS and or BLACK takes on a whole new meaning. For many years these words have been used as derogatory terms toward black people. Learning how to read or write those same words or any of the English language for that matter, made black people subject to being beaten, flogged, whipped, or even lynched. Teaching the WORD of God was for white men only, especially in the South. Eventually, times changed whereas now the most prominent ministers in America are predominately black. But something very deceptive also happened during that transitional period: REAL history was overlooked while a whole group of Americans were NOT told about their attachment to God's handiwork. Biblical Black History is a brief study that challenges the reader to look at history from a perspective that's different from any book you've EVER read. The writer takes his time to explain how hidden elements of race have been overlooked from an educational, racial, artistic, and historian's point of view. Most readers look at history as a boring subject. Most bible readers look at the history sections within the book as wasted pages or totally ignore them altogether. Most history books are perceived as old people books that don't relate to this generation or time. Well, this book is a challenge to ALL the misconceptions of how history is viewed and received. It's said that the best medicine you can take ,outside of a smile, is usually nasty but good for you. Perhaps this quick read is that medicine that can help heal a sick and divided world, beginning with you. |
| bible is black history book: The Negro Bible - The Slave Bible , 2019-10-25 The Slave Bible was published in 1807. It was commissioned on behalf of the Society for the Conversion of Negro Slaves in England. The Bible was to be used by missionaries and slave owners to teach slaves about the Christian faith and to evangelize slaves. The Bible was used to teach some slaves to read, but the goal first and foremost was to tend to the spiritual needs of the slaves in the way the missionaries and slave owners saw fit. |

| bible is black history book: The Black Biblical Heritage John L. Johnson, 1987 The Black Biblical Heritage is a book that reveals Blacks in the Bible.

| bible is black history book: Blacks in the Bible James H. Warden Jr., 2006-12 Abraham and his wife made their African slave a surrogate mother and she bore Abraham a half-black heir. Later, God wished to use Moses and his Ethiopian wife and half-Ethiopian sons to raise up a new race of Jews to replace the twelve tribes of Israel. Let's not forget that the Almighty did not object when Jacob passed the blessing of Abraham on to his half-African grandsons, Ephraim and Manasseh, in North Africa. In light of these facts it's amazing that early Americans wondered if blacks could be saved especially since it was big news to Jews that gentiles (Europeans) could be saved. Prior to the Apostles of Christ's debate about whether Europeans, called gentiles in Scripture, could be saved, Niger and Lucius were black Bible teachers at Antioch (where believers were first called Christians) and an Ethiopian eunuch had been saved and baptized. (Acts 13:1, 15:7) The first king, queen, prince, and princess in the Bible were black. It was an African princess who found Moses floating down the Nile in Africa. Later Esther a dark skinned Jew won a black beauty contest that stretched from India to Ethiopia. Blacks in the Bible Vol. I shows you truths stranger than fiction. |
| bible is black history book: The African American Guide to the Bible H.C. Felder, 2018-10-31 The African American Guide to the Bible makes the case for the relevance of the Bible from the perspective of people of color. It presents a comprehensive biblical view of topics of interest to African Americans and clarifies racial issues for white people. Part 1 addresses the inspiration of the Bible by giving evidence for its authenticity. A considerable amount of time is spent on examining the original text of the Bible, the archeological evidence, and the evidence from predictive prophecy to demonstrate the uniqueness of the Bible. Part 2 deals with the black presence in the Bible by demonstrating the prominence of people of color and black people in particular by highlighting their importance in the plan of God. It explains what it means to be black and demonstrates that the scientific and biblical evidence are both consistent with respect to race. Part 3 is a response to the arguments of racism used by critics of the Bible, for example, Christianity is the white man's religion and Bible supports slavery and racism. These arguments are examined and evaluated in light of scripture and the context of history. Part 4 deals with the unity of humanity from a biblical perspective. It shows why racism is not only unbiblical but is evil when understood from the perspective of God. |

| bible is black history book: Blacks in the Bible James H. Warden, Jr., 2020-02-14 Blacks in the Bible. The first question the New Testament asks a Black man reading Scripture is, Do you understand what you are reading? God used dirt to make man in His image, the Imago Dei. He formed Himself as a soil colored man then placed that living image of Himself in Africa where His Garden began and where man's oldest bones are found. So, it is illogical to think that Adam, God's Image of Himself as dirt, was white. Do you know what book of the Bible is solely dedicated to a black woman? Do you know that Joseph was appointed an African wife by Africa's greatest king? Did you know that Ham was the only son of Noah that rode on the Ark and had land named after him? (Psalm 105:23 & 106:22) Did you know that Goliath that David slew was black? Did you know that every time God cursed skin, He turned it white, never black. Do you know the only verse in Scripture that God declares I am black?. saith the LORD, and that there are no I am white Scriptures? Did you know the last person Jesus healed was black? Do you know the only non-Jewish apostle of Jesus Christ was black and he descended from Canaan, and Ham is the father of Canaan. Do you know that Christ did no call any white apostles though Romans were all round Him? Do you know what Israelites passed as black royalty in Scripture? Do you know the two most powerful Queens in Scripture were black women. Do you know that Moses married an African woman? Do you know that the name of Ham's sons are on our maps today but their names in Scripture are hidden in Hebrew words? Do you know that there was no white blood in the children of Israel in the entire Old Testament and neither is there any white blood in the bloodline of Jesus the Messiah who has four infusions of black blood in His lineage. Do you know only one white man spoke in the Old Testament? |

| bible is black history book: How the Bible Became Holy Michael L Satlow, 2014-04-15 In this sweeping narrative, Michael Satlow tells the fascinating story of how an ancient collection of obscure Israelite writings became the founding texts of both Judaism and Christianity, considered holy by followers of each faith. Drawing on cutting-edge historical and archeological research, he traces the story of how, when, and why Jews and Christians gradually granted authority to texts that had long lay dormant in a dusty temple archive. The Bible, Satlow maintains, was not the consecrated book it is now until quite late in its history. He describes how elite scribes in the eighth and seventh centuries B.C.E. began the process that led to the creation of several of our biblical texts. It was not until these were translated into Greek in Egypt in the second century B.C.E., however, that some Jews began to see them as culturally authoritative, comparable to Homer’s works in contemporary Greek society. Then, in the first century B.C.E. in Israel, political machinations resulted in the Sadducees assigning legal power to the writings. We see how the world Jesus was born into was largely biblically illiterate and how he knew very little about the texts upon which his apostles would base his spiritual leadership. Synthesizing an enormous body of scholarly work, Satlow’s groundbreaking study offers provocative new assertions about commonly accepted interpretations of biblical history as well as a unique window into how two of the world’s great faiths came into being. |
| bible is black history book: A History of the Bible John Barton, 2020-08-04 A literary history of our most influential book of all time, by an Oxford scholar and Anglican priest In our culture, the Bible is monolithic: It is a collection of books that has been unchanged and unchallenged since the earliest days of the Christian church. The idea of the Bible as Holy Scripture, a non-negotiable authority straight from God, has prevailed in Western society for some time. And while it provides a firm foundation for centuries of Christian teaching, it denies the depth, variety, and richness of this fascinating text. In A History of the Bible, John Barton argues that the Bible is not a prescription to a complete, fixed religious system, but rather a product of a long and intriguing process, which has inspired Judaism and Christianity, but still does not describe the whole of either religion. Barton shows how the Bible is indeed an important source of religious insight for Jews and Christians alike, yet argues that it must be read in its historical context--from its beginnings in myth and folklore to its many interpretations throughout the centuries. It is a book full of narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems, and letters, each with their own character and origin stories. Barton explains how and by whom these disparate pieces were written, how they were canonized (and which ones weren't), and how they were assembled, disseminated, and interpreted around the world--and, importantly, to what effect. Ultimately, A History of the Bible argues that a thorough understanding of the history and context of its writing encourages religious communities to move away from the Bible's literal wording--which is impossible to determine--and focus instead on the broader meanings of scripture. |

| bible is black history book: The Bible in Africa Gerald West, Musa Dube, 2021-10-01 Although the arrival of the Bible in Africa has often been a tale of terror, the Bible has become an African book. This volume explores the many ways in which Africans have made the Bible their own. The essays in this book offer a glimpse of the rich resources that constitute Africa's engagement with the Bible. Among the topics are: the historical development of biblical interpretation in Africa, the relationship between African biblical scholarship and scholarship in the West, African resources for reading the Bible, the history and role of vernacular translation in particular African contexts, the ambiguity of the Bible in Africa, the power of the Bible as text and symbol, and the intersections between class, race, gender, and culture in African biblical interpretation. The book also contains an extensive bibliography of African biblical scholarship. In fact, it is one of the most comprehensive collections of African biblical scholarship available in print.

| bible is black history book: The Making of the Bible Konrad Schmid, Jens Schrter, 2021-10-29 The authoritative new account of the BibleÕs origins, illuminating the 1,600-year tradition that shaped the Christian and Jewish holy books as millions know them today. The Bible as we know it today is best understood as a process, one that begins in the tenth century BCE. In this revelatory account, a world-renowned scholar of Hebrew scripture joins a foremost authority on the New Testament to write a new biography of the Book of Books, reconstructing Jewish and Christian scriptural histories, as well as the underappreciated contest between them, from which the Bible arose. Recent scholarship has overturned popular assumptions about IsraelÕs past, suggesting, for instance, that the five books of the Torah were written not by Moses but during the reign of Josiah centuries later. The sources of the Gospels are also under scrutiny. Konrad Schmid and Jens Schrter reveal the long, transformative journeys of these and other texts en route to inclusion in the holy books. The New Testament, the authors show, did not develop in the wake of an Old Testament set in stone. Rather the two evolved in parallel, in conversation with each other, ensuring a continuing mutual influence of Jewish and Christian traditions. Indeed, Schmid and Schrter argue that Judaism may not have survived had it not been reshaped in competition with early Christianity. A remarkable synthesis of the latest Old and New Testament scholarship, The Making of the Bible is the most comprehensive history yet told of the worldÕs best-known literature, revealing its buried lessons and secrets. |

| bible is black history book: Great Women of the Bible Theron D. Williams, 2020 The Bible emerged from a male dominated, patriarchal society. Much of the biblical story casts men as the heroes and basically ignores women, most times treating them as insignificant role players. Nevertheless, the genius of the Holy Spirit arranged the biblical narrative in such a way that it makes it impossible to ignore certain women. Under the toxic patriarchal system of the biblical world, the women highlighted in this book broke through deeply ingrained sexist and misogynistic barriers, joined forces with God as God used them to help roll out the plan for salvation and redemption. These great women of the Bible made such profound contributions; without which the Bible would be incomplete. Despite the vast cultural and time gap that exists between these biblical heroines and women of modernity, it is striking that the same issues with which the women of the Bible had to grapple, still haunt women today. This book opens the portal through which modern women might engage the heroines of the Bible in contemporary conversations.--Back cover. |

| bible is black history book: Is the Bible African History Neil M. C. Sinclair, 2016-01-21 Is the Bible African History demonstrates that a great many biblical characters have been taken from the annals of African legend and history. Long a subject of passionate interest to Afro-Celtic author and historian Neil M. C. Sinclair, the resurrection of the African soul from systematic suppression dating back to the dawn of Western civilization will, at last, reunite black people with their rightful place in the history of the human family. In this highly significant work of historical research, Sinclair examines the Pyramid Texts and other hieroglyphic writings detailing the history of the ancient Land of Khem, otherwise known as the Nile Valley civilization, and cross-references them with the original Torah of the Yahuds, the African priesthood whose devotees were exiled as followers of the rebellious eighteenth-dynasty pharaoh Akhenaten. Thus, you will witness the amazing transformation of black African figures from history and legend into many of the Hebrew characters of the Bible. But this is not the most astounding consequence of reading this book, for within these pages, you will discover the hidden cause of all racial, ethnic, and religious struggle and warfare that plagues our world today. |
| bible is black history book: Black People in the Bible Randolph Jackson, Amber Burgess Greene, 2014-03-23 Is the Bible really a chronicle of generations of people, most of whom were people of color? This is the question raised by Randolph Jackson in his book, Black People in the Bible. Extensive research and deductions by the author yield some unconventional answers to this question, especially with regards to Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, and Jesus and his disciples. Here is a chance for religious readers to see the Bible through a new perspective. Let the author present his case to you. |
| bible is black history book: YOUNG HEROES of the BIBLE: Contemporary Conversations Theron Williams, 2020-08-31 This book highlights the contributions to Salvation history made by such young heroes as Samuel, David, Jeremiah, the Hebrew Boys, the Boy Jesus, Timothy and Titus. These biblical superstars' lives and ministries etched such a profound mark upon the pages of Holy Writ, without which the Bible would be incomplete. It is believed that Samuel was as young as twelve years old when he uttered his first prophecies to his beloved mentor, Eli. David was just a teenager when he defeated Goliath, the giant champion of the Philistine army. Some rabbinical sources suggest that Jeremiah was no more than seventeen years old when he began his prophetic ministry, and there is overwhelming historical evidence that the Hebrew boys were still in their teens when they took a stand for their faith in the face of a fiery furnace. Our Lord, Jesus Christ, amazed the teachers of the Law in the temple at twelve years old, and Timothy and Titus were very young men, perhaps teenagers, when they became apostle Paul's protégés joining him on his missionary journeys. This work seeks to understand these young heroes from the vantage point of their historical contexts. In so doing, we have a better appreciation of how their political, economic, religious and social realities influenced their messages and missions. Young Heroes of the Bible: Contemporary Conversations presents their stories in a way that parallels the stories of young, Black men in America. At the end of each chapter are reflection questions designed to stimulate group discussions or, if reading for personal devotion, questions that may arouse deep self-reflection. The beautiful, physical depictions of these heroes, according to the author's understanding of the historical images of the people of the Bible, make Young Heroes of the Bible: Contemporary Conversations a must have and perfect complement to Great Women of the Bible: Contemporary Conversations. |
