Are There Any Black People Mentioned In The Bible?

I know a lot of the Bible takes place in Egypt, but I never really thought about how much of it takes place in Africa and probably involved black people.

Have any of you done any research about the races of people in the Bible? What do you think about how much time the Hebrews spent in Africa?

Jesus is mentioned.

Another one paragraph thread. Maybe back then people just saw humans as one colour , the colour of human.

3 threads in 7 minutes, all with 3 or less sentences and a link.

A little more information and effort would be appreciated.

Were the Romans a race of color?

No you replied to the question
Are there black people in the bible, you replied Jesus
You are stating Jesus was black, the onus is on you to prove it, not others to disprove it
Your statement

If you had have said, maybe Jesus was black, fine, but you just looked for a reaction?
So prove it

Nobody knows Jesus colour, probably looked like most Hebrews of His time, maybe even black.

Colour was never defined in the bible, but there were Ethiopians in scripture, definitely black I assume

I think the OP is lost in Mormonism and Joe Smith theology about black people

Ever seen The Passion of the Christ?

Jim Caviezel played the role of Jesus.
Jim Caviezel is not black.

If Jesus had been black they would have cast Will Smith.

ETA forgot who played Jesus in that movie, fixed the mistake.

I just want someone to really prove Jesus existed. There is no evidence that I've read that has ever proven to me without a shadow of a doubt that Jesus ever walked this earth as a person and not a myth.

Mel Gibson played the role of Jesus.

I haven't but Mel Gibson would be the wrong colour too, Jesus was most likely Middle Eastern in appearance, he should have been played by Maz Jobrani...

The Dark Tower? Is that relevant?

Now that you've done four threads in quick succession, I notice that each of your threads, since you signed up, is linking to an article from the same blog.
Is this your own blog that you are promoting?

I'm exactly the same, there were many peiple called Jesus and there were many people claiming to be the Messiah.

Oh, hang on, Oded Fehr would have been a better choice of actor for the PAssion of the Christ...

I am sorry you dont understand history
Jesus is the most well documented Man in history, more than any other, ever
Disbelieve everything ever written, disbelieve every account, every word, every story and you are still left with His teachings
You can disbelieve His teachings but you cant deny they were His teachings, even today they are radical.

How about omar sharif? I mean he is a little white but he was Egyptian. Great actor!

a reply to: Raggedyman

Sounds like a great guy. Great teachings! Went to India, learned from the buddhists.


Can you provide me actual evidence he existed though? Something tangible?
