The Hebrew

 

Hebrews were Semites. Semites are darker skinned than European "white people". If you are asking if Hebrews are African, the answer to that question is also no. The images we see of Jesus in paintings are simply not accurate. The bible describes Jesus as olive skinned and dark curly hair. If you want to see what the ancient Hebrews and Jesus likely looked like, check out a modern Arab person as Arabs were also Bedouins. The Arabs and Hebrews come from the same blood line - Abraham gave birth to Esau and Jacob. Esau became the father of the Arabs and Jacob became the father to the Jews. There is a sect of Jews from Southern Africa that DNA testing shows they are ancestors of the Levities these would be truly "black" Hebrews, but these are the exception, not the rule. As much as many would like Jesus to look Europeans, he simply didn't. People of the Bible were of different colors.
 
'People of color are more vulnerable and are more easily to believe what is being told to them, especially when their history has been erased from their minds, and it is constantly battered in their heads through their educational systems, television, and movie theaters. Well, the time has come for the truth to be told. And what is that truth? That the people of the Bible are people of color '.GTM
 

The history of the Israelite nation began in Egypt, the land of Ham. They entered Egypt 66 in number, (not including Joseph, his wife and two sons who were already in Egypt), and left numbering over two million people. Ancient Israel spent 430 years in Egypt. For half that time they enjoyed good favor with the Egyptians, but for the remainder of those years they were enslaved and horribly mistreated by them.

One of the  facts  scripture gives us about Israel (Ysrayl in the Hebrew tongue), is in regard to their physical appearance. Throughout scripture Israel is described as looking like the sons of Ham (Khawm in the Hebrew tongue), in physical appearance.

Ham was one of Noah's three sons, Shem and Japheth were the other two. Noah's descendants repopulated the earth after the Great Flood. Ham's descendants are traced to the families of Africa.  Ham (Khawm) in Hebrew means BLACK, HOT AND BURNT.
Ham had four sons,

1.  CUSH (Ethiopians / Cushites & Nubians),
2.  MIZRAIM (Egyptians / Khemet),
3.  PHUT (Ancient Libyans or Somalia),
4.  CANAAN (Canaanite, the original inhabitants of the land of Israel) genesis 10:6-19.

All four of Ham's sons and their descendants settled in and around the continent of Africa, this includes the so called Middle East which is also a part of the Continent of Africa.  Ham sons are the people of the African continent, the Ancient Egyptians, Ethiopians, Somalia's, Canaanites etc.

The Israelites are descendants of Noah son SHEM, through Abraham, he is the father of the Hebrew Israelite Nation.  Abraham is the father of Isaac, Isaac is the father of Jacob, Jacob had twelve sons and these sons are the progenitors of the Israelite nation.  The Twelve tribes of Israel are as follows
