From Babylon to Timbuktu
Format: Paperback
What I like about this book is how it truly I must say base all it information on facts and allows the reader to search for themselves that truth. Very informative reading! There are many books such as this, which goes along with what the authour here is stating. A well written and well research issue, I have yet to come across. This book invites anyone, no matter of race or ethnicity, to see the real, yet truth behind ones identity as respects where He/She came from when it comes to the lineage of Noah's three sons: Ham, Shem, Japheth. It breaks it down using Biblical though logic to determine who, when, where, how, the races came about. A Must Read!!!
Let truth be told... who the true sons of Noah (Ham, Shem, Japheth) when it relates to my culture (as a Negro or Hebrew Israelite). What's interesting about this book is how it goes into by way of explaining, through a series of logics base on facts, showing you the differention between the two Sons of Noah: Ham and Shem (who were actually of non-colour), according to their identity. The Bible is clear on this fact, however, the "myth" that Ham was "curse" as a race which lead to their skin colour turning Black, which lead to the mass genocide and reason for slavery. It is rather interesting how many miss the two of Noah's Sons: Ham & Shem being of non-colour and that Yeshua (Jesus) was actually from the line of Shem, therefore, being a person of non-colour...
According to the actual fact presented, HAM in the Bible had four (4) sons: Cush (Ethiopia), Mizraim (Egyptians), Phut (Libya -N.Africans), Canaan (S.Africa). These were the progenitour of the Dark Races, NOT the Negroes!(Genesis 10:6) The Negroes were from Shem, who were the Hebrew Israelites! However, the progenitours of Japheth was the Greek, Romans, Europeans or the Caucasians.
According to Alexander Hamilton Bible Dictionary pg. 330, defines HAM: "The youngest son of Noah born probably about 96 years, before the flood. One of the 8 person to live during the flood. He became the progenitor of the dark races, Not the Negroes, but the Egyptians, Ethiopians, Libyans, and Canaanites."
A MUST READ!!!
