Most are Caucasians...especially back then..according to studies of the Carthaginians and Phoenecians from what we can tell today and Ethiopians were Hamitic...hardly jet colored west Africans from the Bight...none of whom would have been in Mesopotamia or the Holy Land

I have never ever heard of Israelites as Negroes...never ever...Falashas are hardly sub tropical Negroes..and their conversion to Judaism is much later ...supposedly today falasha is considered antiquated in this ever PC world...we must say Beta Israel...good lord

We know Alexander was blonde blue eyed and Hannibal Barca was very European looking though modern Afrocentrists have done their damnedest to morph that image...

I did not watch past Sampson, between black Peter Tosh Sampson and black Chaldeans and Israelites I had had enough

but you guys enjoy

Caucasian is an inprecise term with different meanings at different times and in different contexts. People from india are technically Caucasian, but they are not white skinned. Alexander was Macedonian not middle eastern.

Do you see middle easterners as having white rather than brown skin? Would you say of an Arab that he is white? Would your average middle easterner be allowed in a 1950 era country club?

Who did Phillip witness to in Acts? Where was the man he was lead to from? What was he doing in Jerusalem according to The Bible? Israel was scattered several times once to Egypt once to Babylon. It makes sense some Jews from all tribes would have escaped and not been a part of the exiles inside Egypt or Babylon. The people as a whole? Yes. The entire people? Likely not. There was marrying outside of the twelve tribes by the Jews early on including Abraham, Moses, and Solomon to name a few as well Esther married a non Jew.

No one knows how many African Jews there were. It would be reasonable to say there were some. The Bible is dealing with the history of the nation of Israel as a whole. Even Samson married outside the twelve tribes. His wife was Philistine.

Still it is very ridiculous too discount the message of the movie over actors skin tone. Do we start bashing church Nativity scenes next? Christ came to save all mankind who will believe, call on His name, and obey. It was not just the white folk living in the USA. They hired actors and this movie was not made in the USA. It is also believed that the man who carried Christ cross may have in fact been black. He was from Libya. There was what 1600 years from Abraham to Christ birth? Of course people migrated.

If we take The Bible at is word about The Great Flood we all came from two persons Adam and Noah. If the Great Flood was actually just a regional disaster hitting the Persian Gulf region and Med Sea Basin {known world at that time in history} then we are all still from Adam.
