Hebrews and Egyptians: Mistaken Identity The Physical Appearance of the Children of Israel Part 2

**important notes: before the foundation of the earth was made - the Father had one Name: hwhy (pronounced Ya-Hoo-Ah: YAHUAH)! This article proudly proclaims that Name. The Father Himself breathed to humankind the only Name for His Son: [fwhy (pronounced YaHoo-Sha: YAHUSHA)! This article proudly proclaims that Name. Neither the Father nor His Son will be referred to as god, lord, Jehovah, Jesus, or Christ. Pagans created these names and titles, therefore, they are sinful to use. Hebrew reads from right to left, while Greek reads from left to right. Whenever you see the letter H followed by a number (H-1234), this is a reference to the Hebrew section of the Strongs. Whenever you see the letter G followed by a number (G-1234), this is a reference to the Greek section of the Strongs. I strongly recommend the use of an Interlinear Bible. An Interlinear Bible will enable you to read the Scriptures in its original language and get a better understanding of very important words.**

Introduction Greetings to you again in the wonderful, beautiful Names of hwhy and [vwhy! In our last edition of Food for Thought, some of us were left with a hunger for more knowledge, but sadly enough: some decided to discontinue their subscription. All I am offering is the truth. The word of hwhy speaks for itself and we should all search the scriptures daily in order to know for sure if what we are learning is the truth (Acts 17:11). It is with all sincerity that I admonish you to diligently research all of the information being presented to you. We have covered the Covenant Relationship, the appearance of Cham (Ham) and the Egyptians, and the lie of the Jews being the chosen people. As I promised, the Scriptures will now prove that Israelites looked exactly like Egyptians. In case you are wondering the importance of identifying Israelites, remember that Yashmaal (Ishmael) was also Hebrew, but not an Israelite. Y`aqb (Jacob) became Yasharal (Israel: Brashyth (Genesis) 32:28) and his sons became known as the children of Israel, but remember: they were all Hebrews. I am super excited to present this information to you! Now, without further delay, let us meet the Hebrew men of the Covenant who, at some point or another, were mistaken for black Egyptians.

Hebrews Mistaken For Egyptians Yusaph (Joseph) In Brashyth (Genesis) 37, we began to learn more about the favorite son of Y`aqb (Jacob): Yusaph (Joseph). Verse 3 explains that Y`aqb loved Yusaph more than all of his sons because he bore him in his old age. Yusaph dreamed that his brothers would bow down before him and this made them extremely angry (verses 4-11). Jealousy and hatred eventually led to Yusaph being thrown into a pit and sold, by his brothers, to Hebrew Yashmaalyth merchants (verses 19-28). We have already learned that Abraham birthed Yashmaal (Ishmael) before he birthed Yatschaq (Isaac: Brashyth 16:2-4, 16). We have proven that Abraham was Hebrew and Yashmaals mother (Hagar) was Egyptian. Egyptians were black-skinned children of Cham (Ham). So Yusaph was not sold to Muslims: he was sold to his cousins, who were the descendants of his uncle Yashmaal: black-skinned Hebrew/Egyptian men. You can read the full story in Chapters 37-50 of Brashyth. As time went on, Yusaph became Viceroy (Governor) of Matsraym (Egypt) and was second only to the Pharaoh. There came a time, because of the famine, that the sons of Y`aqb came to Matsraym for food. They stood and bowed in the presence of the Governor of Matsraym, who was none other than Yusaph. I want to add an interesting note: his brothers did not recognize who he was (Brashyth 42:1-8). Lets examine what we have learned carefully. Egyptians were a black-skinned people and Yusaph (Hebrew and Israelite) was Governor of the land of Egypt (Khemet in their own language, which meant land of the black). Why wouldnt Yusaphs brothers recognize their Caucasian/Jewish looking brother amongst all of these black people? His brothers did not recognize him because they were all black (Hebrews and Egyptians are cousins) men of different bloodlines and they had not seen him since he was a teenager. When you read the story of Yusaph in Acts 7:2-13, you will learn a very important detail about

him: even the Pharaoh was unaware that Yusaph was Hebrew. Verse 13 shows that Yusaphs race became known to the Pharaoh. Yusaph looked like the Egyptians so much that even Pharaoh did not know he was Hebrew: Hebrews and Egyptians looked alike. Hebrews Mistaken For Egyptians Mashah (Moses) One of the most famous stories of what people refer to as the Old Testament is the story of Mashah (Moses). Though the story has been told thousands of times, I do not think it has ever been read thoroughly. The story of Mashah indeed reveals something about Israelites: they were black people. Shamuth (Exodus) 1 tells us that Yusaph and his brothers all died and a new Pharaoh emerged who did not know Yusaph (verse 8). This new Pharaoh feared the Hebrews and tried to subdue them with harsh slavery, but the more he afflicted them, the more they increased and grew (verses 9-12). The order was sent out to kill all male newborn Hebrews and only spare the lives of the female babies. Pharaoh went so far as to have all newborn boys thrown into the river: but baby girls were spared (verses 16-22). So enters the story of Mashah. Grandson of Pharaoh In Shamuth (Exodus) 2, we read of a man from the tribe of Luy (Levi) who married a woman from the same tribe. We have already shown that Abraham, Yatschaq (Isaac), and Y`aqb (Jacob) were Hebrews. Y`aqb birthed the 12 tribes (children) of Yasharal (Israel) and Luy was one of the twelve (Shamuth 1:1-5). This means that both of Mashahs parents were Hebrews (Israelites) from the tribe of Luy, living in Egypt under the rule of a Pharaoh who wanted to murder all Hebrew boys. This was a huge problem because they indeed had a son, whom they hid for 3 months (Chapter 2:1-2). When the child could no longer be hid, he was placed in the river inside of an ark of wicker. Verse 5 shows that the daughter of Pharaoh (the man who wanted to kill the male Hebrew babies) drew Mashah out of the water and knew that he was Hebrew (verse 6). Pharaohs daughter even sought out a Hebrew to nurse the child (verse 7-10). Scriptures reveal that Mashah grew as the grandson of Pharaoh for 40 years (Acts 7:20-23). Ask yourself this question. How is it possible for the Pharaohs daughter to raise a Hebrew child and pass him off as an Egyptian for 40 years if he looked like Charlton Heston? Look at Seti and look at Heston. No way are these two kindred!

Pharaoh gave the decree himself to kill all Hebrew males, how could he face and rule over his people if he knowingly had one living in his house with all the rights and privileges of his own family? Pharaoh wanted to murder all newborn Hebrew boys, but why did he spare Mashah?

Because he could not tell the difference in the physical appearance of an Egyptian or a Hebrew: they were both black skinned people! Many Scholars and Archeologist agree that Seti I (father of Ramses II) was the Pharaoh at the time of Mashah. Do you remember the temple drawings of Seti I from our last edition? Notice the temple drawings of the man that thought Mashah was his grandson. Notice the reddish tone of the Egyptian king? Look at the Hebrew baby!

George Rawlinson, an English author, wrote a book entitled History of Egypt. On page 252, he gives a description of Seti I. He states, Setis face was thoroughly African. He had a stormy face with a depressed flat nose, thick lips, and heavy chin. Would this black Seti order all the Caucasian/Jewish Hebrew boys to be killed, but not be able to tell that his grandson was of a different skin tone? Mashah was raised in the house of Pharaoh Seti I secretively because he looked just like the Egyptians. Mashah bore the same skin tone as the illustration above: we would call him black. It is also important to keep in mind that even the Midianites recognized Mashah as an Egyptian and not a Hebrew in Egyptian clothing (Shamuth 2:16-19). The evidence is extremely compelling! Look at the descendants of Cham (Ham means burnt/black) and realize one of the greatest cover ups in history. Research the 1922 excavation of King Tuts tomb: he (and his father) were Egyptian, black, and looked like the Hebrews.

So far, we have seen that both Mashah and Yusaph were mistaken for Egyptians. Yusaphs own brothers could not distinguish between him and other Egyptians: even though Yusaph was Hebrew (Brashyth (Genesis) 42:1-8). Let us examine more stunning facts that are only revealed in the Turah (instruction/law) of hwhy. Sleight of Hand When hwhy spoke to Mashah in Shamuth (Exodus) 4, He showed Mashah 2 great miracles. In verses 1-4, hwhy turns the staff of Mashah into a snake. When Mashah caught the snake by the tail, the snake turned back into a staff. This act would show that hwhy had indeed appeared unto Mashah (verse 5). This is the point where most bible stories end. The second miracle was to be more convincing than the first (verse 8). Mashah was instructed to place his hand into his bosom (above his waist area) and hwhy would cause him to be white (leprous verse 6). The second time the hand was placed in his bosom, Mashahs flesh was restored. What does this mean? Why would a white mans hand turning white be a miracle worthy of comparison to a staff transforming into a snake? Behold the miracle of leprosy!! Leprosy When we think of leprosy, we think of people with a debilitating neurological disorder- covered with sores and scales, waiting to die. The Scriptures speak of an entirely different disease. Uyqra (Leviticus) 13:2-4 describes a skin disease (leprosy) identified by a scab, swelling, or a white spot. Even the hair was affected (verse 3). Notice that verse six states if the skin began to darken (reverting to its original tone): the man shall be pronounced clean. He was unclean as long as his skin bore the white spots. Verses 12-13 even show that if the man turned ALL WHITE (laban in Hebrew means to be or become white H-3835) he was clean. Wow! If a leper turned all white, he was considered just as clean as everyone else was. He would now be a Hebrew with white skin. You have just read a perfect depiction of an ancient albino! In the diagram below, the little boy is what we would call a black kid, but look at his skin tone and the white hair. Please read all of Uyqra 13, you will discover that true leprosy turned skin white.

Hansens disease become known as the face of modern day leprosy and the actual disease known as leprosy has been hidden in the form of a disease we now call vitiligo. In the images below, there are two people; both have leprosy (vitiligo). One is a black skinned Hebrew and the other is that of a white man (white skin becomes red with leprosy). Which of these hands fit the description of what we just read in Uyqra (Leviticus) 13 and the hand of Mashah in Shamuth (Exodus) 4:6-7? The bottom two pictures are of those with Hansens disease.

I think it is safe to say that the bottom pictures of Hansens disease do not fit the Scriptures account of the disease that turned skin white.

Leprosy (known today as vitiligo) was a skin disorder that turned dark skin white. Hebrews and Egyptians were already black skinned people. Imagine the shock the king would feel if Mashahs hand had looked like the images of these Hebrews stricken with leprosy (vitiligo). Notice how the skin turning white matches perfectly with Uyqra (Leviticus) 13 and Shamuth 4:6-7:

Michael Jackson suffered from this disease. If Mashah was already Caucasian/Jewish, where was the miracle of turning more white? If leprosy was really Hansens disease, why are the Scriptures so far off? The word of Yah has always been very clear on what leprosy was.

Marym (Miriam): Changed In Bmadbar (Numbers) 12, we read the story of Mashahs (Moses) sister Marym (Miriam). Marym spoke in a negative manner against Mashah because he had taken a Kushite (Ethiopian) woman (12:1). We already know that Ethiopians are black skinned people from the lineage of Cham (Ham Brashyth (Genesis) 10:6). Ethiopians were not Hebrews and Marym was upset by the fact of her brother joining himself to a woman of a different culture: not a different skin tone. There was also jealousy brewing in the hearts of Marym and Aharan (Aaron) due to the fact that hwhy was speaking to Mashah (12:2). hwhy summons them outside of the tent and tells them that Mashah was the most trustworthy in His house, therefore He chose to speak to Mashah plainly and not in riddles (12:6-8). Then the situation turns extremely bad for Marym. hwhy is so angry with her for her words, He turned her leprous (12:10)! The Hebrew text clearly shows that Marym became white. But wasnt Marym already white? hwhy punished Marym by changing her skin color from black to white, a shocking ordeal for any Hebrew (12:14). If Marym was already white, what was the punishment of solidifying her skin color, why not just make her jet black? Hebrews were a black skinned people: leprosy turned their skin white. Dont be deceived, which of these images would have looked like Marym?

Naman (Naaman): Mighty Leper Keep in mind the images you have already seen of Hansens disease and of leprosy as we visit the story of Naman (Naaman). In Malakym Beth 5 (II Kings), we read of a mighty warrior who was highly respected, brave, and hwhy brought deliverance to Aram (Syria) by him: Naman was a leper (5:1). Is it possible that Naman had a disease that looked like the graphic photos of Hansens disease we saw earlier, or did this dark skinned man have a skin disorder described in Leviticus 13? AlYasha (Elisha) told Naman to wash seven times in the Yardan (Jordan) and his leprosy would be healed (5:10). After some complaining, and rationalization from a servant (5:11-14), Naman washed and was cleansed of his leprosy. The story goes on to tell of AlYashas evil servant Gychazy (Gehazi) trying to receive some sort of financial gain for the miracle that had taken place (5:15-23). Because of his treachery, Gychazy, and his descendants,

were cursed with leprosy forever! The Scriptures further said that Gychazy became leprous as snow. The word used for snow is the Hebrew word shalag (H-7949 & 7950) which means to be white/whiteness. Once again, the scriptures make it abundantly clear: leprosy turned skin white. If leprosy clearly turned skin white, what color was the skin to begin with?

We have just had an in depth study of leprosy; lets continue with the resemblance of Hebrews and Egyptians. Hebrews Mistaken for Egyptians Shaul (Paul) In Acts 21:37-38, soldiers were carrying Shaul (Paul) into the barracks. Shaul asked the commander for permission to speak. The commander asked Shaul if he knew how to speak in the Greek language. In verse 38, the commander confused Shaul for an Egyptian! Are you not the Egyptian who some time ago stirred up a revolt and led four thousand assassins out into the wilderness (Acts 21:28)? Shaul stated that he was indeed an Israelite (Hebrew - Yahudite) from Tarsus. Philippians 3:1-5 and Romans 11:1 records Shaul stating that he was of the tribe of Bnyamyn (Benjamin), an Israelite, and a Hebrew of Hebrews. In our last edition, we proved that Egyptians were black skinned people. In order for Shaul to be mistaken for an Egyptianhe had to look like one. Pay close attention to the men who were doing the service of [vwhy in Acts 13:1- Shaul (the Hebrew confused for a black Egyptian), Barnabah (an Israelite of the tribe of Luy/Levi Acts 4:36), Shimon the Niger (Niger is Latin for black/dark), Lucias the Cyrene (Cyrene is in Libya: Africa), and Manachem (Hebrew Israelite: H#4505). This was a group of black skinned men who the Romans classified as Ethiopians (according to noted historian J.A. Rogers).

Hebrews Amongst Egyptians [vwhy : The Savior When [vwhy was a young child, messengers of hwhytold Yusaph (Joseph) and Marym (Miriam) to flee to Egypt and hide because Herod sought to kill him (MathathYahu 2:13-15). This event would fulfill the prophesy that stated, Out of Matsraym (Egypt) have I called my

Son (Husha (Hosea) 11:1, Shamuth (Exodus) 4:22-23). We have already learned that Egypt was called the land of the black (Khemet) and it was ruled by black skinned kings. Why did hwhy tell Yusaph and Marym to flee to the land of the black to hide their Caucasian/Jewish son? They did not flee to Egypt for military protection, they fled to Egypt so that they could blend in with the inhabitants of that land. Yusaph, Marym and [vwhy would have looked just like the other inhabitants of Egypt: a black Hebraic family. BBC produced a program called The Complete Jesus in 2001. I apologize for the word Jesus, but I am quoting the name of the program and the work it contained. The Saviors Name is [vwhy, but bear with me in using Jesus for the sake of the quote. The program contained a statement from a scholar by the name of Mark Goodacre about [vwhy , who the world profanes by calling Jesus. Goodacre said that it would have been hard for [vwhy to hide among the Egyptians, if He did not look like Egyptians. He was making the point that [vwhy could not have been a man of white hue. He admitted that in the program that [vwhy was a dark/blackskinned man. Here is a quote: Now its very unlikely that Jesus would have been able to be HIDDEN in Egypt, if he had a very different color of SKIN from the people in Egypt. He also made mention that the Israelites of the first to third centuries wore their hair in Afro's, and wore short crop black beards. The Romans put Herod on the throne of Israel. Egypt was under Roman dominion. All Herod had to do was check with the Roman officials in Egypt to find out if there were any Hebrews with baby boys around. But, since the Hebrews and the Egyptians looked the same physically, it would have been hard to single out a Hebrew family among the native "black" ancient Egyptians. ConclusionThere is so much more information that I am eager to share with you about the Hebraic Children of Yasharal (Israel). We have many more additions to come (Samson, slavery, the curses) in order to unlock the mysteries of how the ancient Israelites looked. Please understand that it is a sin to teach only black skinned Hebrews are part of the Covenant of Yasharal today. I do feel that it is extremely important to know who the original descendents of Abraham were, in order to be grafted into the tree.

If you feel compelled either to discuss the Scriptures further, or to come out of paganism, and join in on the fellowship or even be immersed into a Covenant relationship with hwhy: I would love to hear from you. Until next time, remember, there is one faith, one Alahym, and one immersion (Ephesians 4:5). Your servant in the work of hwhy and [fwhy Yachazyal Shalum
