How Race in the Bible is Misunderstood

by Chris
(Africa)

The topic of race in the Bible always seems to be down-played and trivialized by most Christians nowadays, who seem to do so upon the inspiration of their ministers in the mainstream Christian churches. For decades conservative Christianity has acknowledged the importance of preserving racial differences of God's creation, inspired by the scriptures themselves instead of down-playing them.

That was until the churches became more and more filled with the spirit of the false profit. The false profit being the spirit of the father of lies - the Synagogue of Satan. The churches have become increasingly tolerant of race mixing, homosexuality, a blind acceptance of the war crimes of The State of Israel, talking in tongues (which our Christian fore-fathers never practiced) and even inter-faith belief systems. There is no doubt that the false profit is currently in the churches ever since the end of WW2 and the founding of "The State of Israel".

This article is dedicated to exploring race in the Bible as well as which races in particular the Israelites were allowed to inter-marry with, and which races were forbidden. If you follow what you are now taught to believe in the Churches you will be in for a rude awakening as you realize, verse by verse, that tribes of different religions were MANY times ALLOWED BY GOD to inter-marry with the Israelites, whereas others of different religions actually were NOT ALLOWED.

So what was the difference between them then? Could it have been race? Is it so hard to believe that God created the races differently and intended them to stay that way?

"A BASTARD shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.... even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever." Deuteronomy 23:2

The word "bastard" in English has at least 2 meanings. The oldest English dictionary you will might might say that it means "the child of an illegitimate act of intercourse or relationship". This definition is pretty accurate, but the problem that came in over time is that there are many different types of illegitimate relationships.

For example, pre-marital sexual relationships. If this were simply one of these forbidden relationships as we are taught by our ministers, then why would the child be punished by not being allowed in the congregation? By that child inter-marying with the rest of the congregation it will not have any real adverse affects. Another type could be a child of an extra-marital affair, but again this wouldn't make sense for similar reasons.

The other type of illegal relationship is an inter-racial relationship. This makes more sense as by inter-marrying with the child of this relationship, your children will no longer be of the same race as you, and eventually your race will die out - as did many ancient civilizations in the Middle East. Whether race is merely skin color or far more than that, God created the races different for a reason. We obsess over saving animals of different skin colors from extinction and even refer to birds with slight, hardly noticeable differences as different species, but when it comes to humans the same rules don't apply.

A closer look at the Hebrew translation of the English word "bastard" of this verse in Srongs Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible (thick, hard cover, maroon edition) gives the word: "mamzer", meaning "mongrel". Has a child of a premarital sexual relationship ever been called a mongrel before? Some people quote the following verses in the same chapter to show the reason why they are not allowed in the congregation:

"3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever:
4 BECAUSE THEY MET YOU NOT WITH BREAD AND WITH WATER IN THE WAY, when ye came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee."


Maybe they were mean to Israel, but why were they mean in the first place? Why did they hire Balaam to "curse" them, and what was this curse?

"But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock (curse) before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication." Revelation 2:14

What type of fornication was this?
Purely religious fornication, or that of the flesh as well?

"And Balaam rose up, and went and returned to his place: and Balak also went his way." 1 ¶ And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit WHOREDOM with THE DAUGHTERS of Moab.
2 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
3 And Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel."
Numbers 24:25-25:3

Where else in the Bible is mixing with mongrels races forbidden?

"Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude." Nehemiah 13:3

"Let now our rulers of all the congregation stand, and let all them which have taken strange wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us." Ezra 10:14


Inter-marriage with the "mixed multitude" always seems to go hand in hand with following strange Gods, whereas those of the same race in the Bible (like Egyptians and Syrians) were allowed to inter-marry with the Israelites despite being from different religious backgrounds. We only need look at Christians in South America, Christians in Africa, Christians in China. There is something that is just not the same with these Christians. They cannot let go entirely of their self mutilating and in other case even cannibalistic and ancestor worshiping customs and their form of Christianity that we first imposed on them gradually becomes less and less influenced by the white colonialists who first converted them and more and more influenced and mingled in with their own false beliefs. I live in Africa and I should know.

Egyptians and Syrians who were of the same race as the Israelites were allowed intermarriage. In fact the 12 tribes of Israel were part Syrian! Here are some examples, followed by evidence of the race of the Israelites themselves!

Genesis 25:20 "And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian."

Genesis 16:3 "And Sarai Abram’s wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife."

The use of the words bastard (mongrel), mixed multitude, strange wives, fornication, exclution of bastards from the congregation - FOREVER ! All of this clearly hints at race mixing being outlawed.

Here is some evidence of descriptions of the race of the ancient Israelites (quite different to what the Jews looked like only a few hundred years ago before entering Western Europe from the Pale of Settlements):

Song of Solomon 5:10 "My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand."

Lamentations 4:7 "Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire."

1 Samuel 17:42 "And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance."

Error of Balaam is not Race-mixing. NEW
by: Anonymous

I do not know how many times I have read that the error of Balaam was race-mixing and also eating things sacrificed to idols. I see the eating things sacrificed to idols, but not the race-mixing. If it was race-mixing, than why did Moses tell the Israelite men (Numbers 31:15-18 below) after they took all the women of Midian captives, as it says in Numbers 31:9.

Numbers 31:15-18 - And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women (of Midian) alive? Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

Seems strange to me that if race-mixing was the issue, why would Moses tell the men to keep alive all the women children who have not known a man? They themselves would be race-mixers after the girls have come to an age of being able to know a man. Deu 21:10-11 allows the men to take a beautiful woman from among the captives for a wife: "When thou goest forth to war against thine enemies (in this case Midian), and the LORD thy God hath delivered them into thine hands, and thou hast taken them captive, And seest among the captives a beautiful woman (obviously a virgin), and hast a desire unto her, that thou wouldest have her to thy wife;". Midianites were not of a different race, but tribe, and the Israelite men were allowed to take a virgin from among the women for a wife. The Midianites were descendants of Abraham's son Midian through Keturah. It seems to me the sin was fornicating with these women and their false god(s), not race-mixing. Moabite and Ammonite women (men and children too) on the other hand were excluded from entering the congregation of the LORD for ever as it says in Deu 23:3-4, but only AFTER they did the below things, not before. "An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever: Because they met you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt; AND because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee."

There was no race-mixing, Midianites and Moabites were both related to Abraham and Israelite men took wives of the Midianite virgins. That being said, I do not believe in race-mixing and think using the Midianite/Moabite scripture as an example is weak at best.

Israel's children are (probably) in virtually every race! NEW
by: Daniel

A huge part of The Christ coming was because all Israel like sheep had gone astray. This is in Isaiah. Everybody knows that. How did Israel go astray? In many ways. Ephraim had joined himself to idols, for one. This meant, in part, that he'd made himself one (mainly by breeding) with Caananites, Kemetans, etc. Israel had gone a-whoring after several lovers. This (interbreeding) had gone on for a long time, actually. Shaul, the grandson of Jacob, was the son of a Canaanite woman (Genesis 46:10) - and, by the way, Shaul and his descendants were allowed in the congregation of The Lord at no less a place than the Great Contract at Sinai (when The Almighty came down).

So, yes, Moses had laid down the law (including that on intermarriage). Israel broke it. A price had to be paid, a solution had to be found; hence Yeshua the Messiah. On Him was laid all of Israel sins (including that of becoming, for the most part, a 'Mongrel nation', if we follow the logic of the (very) racist poster ). In the light of this (laying the Nation's sins on Yeshua) Israel has been redeemed.

Ezekiel 39: 25-29 says: I will have mercy on ALL Israel, for I jealously guard my holy reputation! They will accept responsibility for their past shame and unfaithfulness .... My people will know that I am the LORD their God .... I WILL LEAVE NONE OF MY PEOPLE BEHIND.

The U.S is a country born out of racist violence. You can 'euphemise' the country's story all you want. But hard facts show it is a child of racist violent rape. A child of trauma, therefore. I, for one, am thus quite careful with American contribution when it comes to matters of race and identity. They (such contributions) are sometimes colored (not trying to be funny) by petty, virulent racism and, therefore, ignorance.

This How Race In Te Bible Misunderstood
by: The Real Jew

White in the bible means purity... The Most High did not create races of people, Most High created Nations and Melanin.Here are some evidence of descriptions of the race of the "Ancient Israelite"
Song Of Solomon 1:1 The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
Song Of Solomon 1:5 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
Lamentation 4:8 Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick.

You was label White/Caucasian/ European/ From A
The concept of white race or white people originated in the 17th century. The term was coined mainly to differentiate the white from the dark skinned people. But the reference of white race or white people can be traced to Greco-Roman ethnography.

It was only in the recent time that the concept of Caucasian originated. The term can be traced to the 19th century and has been derived from a region of the Caucasus Mountains. German scientist and anthropologist Johann Friedrich Blumenbach is credited with the development of the term Caucasian in 1800.

"Race"? No Race existed in the beginning.
by: Anonymous

If we follow the logic, then the Israelite nation would not have existed. Israel, as a nation, was originally a mix of the Hebrews/Semites, Egyptians, other Africans and Canaanites all intermarried. In short they were a Semitic-Hamitc mix. Originally all humans were of one speech meaning that there were no nations or tribes pre-flood.

Race mixing and heaven
by: Alan

God clearly is concerned with race and is against race mixing. However, I don't see how, someone who has inter-married, or a racially mixed kid is barred from heaven as some suggest. How can such a position be reconciled with statements such as the following? John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." Then in verse 36, Jesus goes on to say, "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them." And plenty more besides...

Nations and Tribes = Races - SAME THING !
by: Anonymous

When the Bible speaks about tribes and nations it IS speaking about races - they are one and the same thing - race exists, despite the media now all of a sudden deciding to discourage belief in it!

Except of course when the Bible refers to the "mixed multitude" or "bastards". Noah took his wives on board with him on the ark, and there were many partially related children who were able to reproduce with each other. Some even postulate that Noah's children inter-married with children of Japheth, who were also white.

Look at how white some Arabs, like Basheer al Assad - Syrian president - where did their white genetic component come from? Ever since the end of WW2 there has been a conspiracy in the churches and media that chooses to spiritualize the whole concept of race and race separation laws in the Old Testament, simply because the New Testament doesn't seems to expressly promote laws against race mixing and other old testament laws of Moses.

How do you explain Deuteronomy 23:2 "A bastard (mongrel in Hebrew) shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD...forever" How do you explain: Nehemiah 13:3 "Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude." The New Testament does NOT do away with these laws, although it doesn't repeat them in detain, suffice to say in Matthew 5:17-18 says: "Think not that I am come to destroy the Christ law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

Mixed Relationships
by: Anonymous

Why is it that people can believe that God forbids something as ridiculously make-believe as a mixed relationship between a human and an angel, called a Nephilim; but cannot believe that real racial mixtures already existed before our ours, and that they are forbidden and have destroyed every great civilization that ever existed, as well as the greatest that HAS ever existed - the Western world today?

Is this because the false profit is in the churches ?

How Race in the Bible is Misunderstood
by: Louis (London)

The Bible is not NOT just an intellectual book but a spiritual one! You read and understand the Whole and NOT patches of quotations that best suits you.

And please DO NOT add onto the quotation of Revelations about "mixed multitude" destroyed. THAT IS NOT WHAT Rev. 7: 9-10 stated!


People are destroyed NOT because they are "mixed" (whatever that means UNLESS you are claiming that Edomites + Canaanite were NOT humans (untrue) or that they included the mixture of nephilims who were NOT fully humans--possible but not all) but that they violate God's laws especially worshipping Idols! And practising sexual abominations ( the two usually go together) like in Sodom and Gomorrah who probably practised other abominable acts that could mix the human Race with non-humans possibly animals! You saw their actions towards the two Angels. That possibly is what they had been doing with the fallen angels.

The Canaanite were driven out/to be destroyed because of their idolatry, the presence of GIANTS there and other terrible sins and not because normal ones were "mixed" with normal Edomites. The Israelites were forbidden to marry them to prevent contamination of the Holy Nation with idolatrous people and NOT because they were "mixed". Solomon was advised the same! We know the results.

Sodom and Gomorrah were not destroyed because they were "mixed". They were destroyed for their SINS and because they FAILED to repent even after a visitation from Angels.

You are palpably INCORRECT.

Mixed Multitudes Destroyed
by: Anonymous

Rev. 7:9-10 "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; and cried with a loud voice, saying, 'Salvation to our God who sitteth upon the throne, and unto the lamb.'"

These are "all" the nations LEFT after Christ destroys the Canaanites and Edomites and all the other mixed multitude children of confusion. You neglect to mention all the prophesies concerning the Edomites and Canaanites being destroyed. A bastard (mongrel) shall not enter in the congregation of the Lord.

Go read your Bible properly to get some perspective. I have shown that Christ first mission was only for the "lost sheep of the house of Israel" and His return will be to burn the children of confusion ! The mixed multitudes and separate them from Israel as in the days of Moses and Nehemiah ! Go read this in your Bible !

Christ will return to separate the genetical tares from the wheat in His great harvest. The tares (weeds) resemble the wheat in certain case and sometime you cannot tell the different, but Christ knows who is a mixed multitude and a bastard in the congregation. That's why He told "certain" Jews, you are not of my sheep and warned of those who lie and call themselves Jews, but are not. So keep lying to yourself, like those Edomite Jews of Christ day used to do.

How Race in the Bible is Misunderstood
by: Louis (London)

What is your definition of "race"? No such thing exists in the bible. Only tribes and nations and people and kindred and tongues.

Coming around throwing statements with no biblical meaning makes little sense.

Where did you think Shem, Ham and Japheth's children and the next generations got wives and husbands to people the entire world after the flood?

According to your logic, children born of two different tribes, or nations, have no souls because they are not "humans" so they cannot be saved?

Well, I have good news for you. THEY CAN BE SAVED AS LONG AS THEY BELIEVE IN THE MESSIAH AND FOLLOW GOD'S LAWS.

Matthew 24:14 "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come."

Rev. 7:9-10 "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; and cried with a loud voice, saying, 'Salvation to our God who sitteth upon the throne, and unto the lamb.'"

I hope these quotes from The Word of God will clarify matters once and for all.

How Race in the Bible is Misunderstood

The Kingdom of God is for all peoples, tribes, nations and tongues that have faith and believe in the Messiah, Yeshua and follow the laws ofthe LORD; and not just for the “civilised” world alone. The following verses from the Bible are revealing and point to what all the people of the earth should strive for. The earthly kingdom will pass away:

“The LORD had said unto Abram, “Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house unto a land that I will show thee: and. I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great, and thou shall be a blessing; And I will bless them that bless thee, curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all the families of the earth blessed.”
Gen 12: 1 - 3

“And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, “As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be father of many nations. Neither shall thy name anymore be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham: for the father of many nations have I made thee. And I shall make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.” Gen 17: 3 - 6

“And he carried me away in the spirit to a great high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God; and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like jasper stone, clear as crystal...”
Rev 21: 10 - 11

“And he that sat was to look upon like jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round around the throne, in sight like an emerald.“ Rev 4:3

Pure nonsense.

You enter the Kingdom of God by believing in Christ and following God's laws; that is the ten commandments. It is by Grace, and not by "purity" of an imagined human "race" which does not exist.

Nobody enters on "purity" criteria.

"Pure" people were the Pharisees who thought they were purer than others. They failed woefully.

Why would you live in Harlem? If you are "pure", then one would expect you to live in a secluded part of the earth with other "pure" men where other "races" will not interact with you.

Your idea about the human "race" is based on the discredited and false theory of evolution. This has no place in the Bible. Nowhere did God say he created different types of men and women. You are either a man, or you are NOT.

Race
by: Anonymous

Racial differences are REAL despite the very new agenda in the media againt acknowledging it. RACE EXISTS AND SO DOES RACIAL PURITY. I know I am racially pure because I have no members of my family or forefathers resembling other races.

The difference in human races is as different as lions and tigers, who by the way are able to interbreed as well, despite being considered different species. Race is similar to species in animals and is far more than just skin color.

It is lip thickness, skull shape, nose shape and behavioral and intellectual and cultural differences. Ask anyone who lives in Harlem or any other black dominated city. Walk through the streets and see if it looks the same, feels the same, is as safe, is as clean as all other "human" cities, if we are all "the same race"!

Go live in Central Africa, or India and come back and tell me we are all the same!

RUBBISH !
by: Anonymous

Rubbish! If there are 3 different colors in your family that means you have a racially mixed family! It is only possible for this to have happened to Noah if his 3 sons were all mixed racially. But in that case Ham would have been mixed, NOT BLACK, and Japheth would have been mixed, NOT WHITE!

There is no way a man of any race can genetically father 3 different races, therefore we have to assume Ham, Shem and Japheth were ALL one race. As I have shown below, that race was white !

Christ said plainly:

Matthew 15:24 "But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

Sheep, who were white, like rosy Adam!

Christ went to Africa when He was a child. This alone is enough to convert the entire African continent to Christianity; and that is what is happening. The visit was as much a saving project as a sign. The LORD works in signs and prophesies.

There are are about five different colors in just my immediate family; not to talk of the extended one.

"Can anyone explain yet how a black, white and colored child (Ham, Japheth and Shem) can be born to one man? (Noah) "

There are are at least three different colors in just my immediate family; not to talk of the extended one. So, to answer your question: check the Rainbow. He who created the Rainbow gave a sign to Noah.

The LORD is capable of reproducing any color from a single source or man as long as the heavens and the earth exist.

The LORD called the Messiah out of Egypt. Egypt is in Africa.

"Out of Egypt will I call my Son."

Christ was taken to Egypt, Africa by his parents to be saved from being slain by Herod.

Whosoever of the ISRAELITES & GENTILES
by: Anonymous

Whosoever - of the ISRAELITES & GENTILES (same race) that believe in Christ will be saved. Just like there will be no kitty-cats, or cute little puppies in heaven (despite them being Gods creation), the Christian faith and law was not designed for them.

I know of 'Christian' Africans who still worship their ancestors, as their forefathers have for thousands of years. It is something you can't change in them because our religion was not meant for them. Christ never went to Africa or Ethiopia to convert cannibals to Christianity.

Christ said in Matthew 10:6 "But go rather to the LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL." and in Matthew 15:24 "But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL."

Christ never came for the Jews, because the Jews of that time were mostly righteous - kept the law (except some of the Edomite priests and citizens who called themselves Jews and crucified Christ). Many Jews believed in Him immediately and were already righteous, this is why they were allowed to return from captivity.

However, the lost 10 tribes of the House of Israel NEVER returned from captivity and continued to practice Paganism in captivity. Christ was sent for them, the "divorced bride" of prophesy, not Judah - the bride that was never divorced.

Jews like to pretend that the Lost Tribes of Israel were lost to history forever. These verses clearly indicated that Christ and His disciples knew exactly were they were, and Christ died so He could remarry them and fulfill the Law of Moses, which allowed a widowed wife to re-marry, but not a divorced wife.

Many may not understand God's creation; but it is clear. There are no "races" in man. All men are of one blood. The only qualification being that you have the pure blood of Adam; and obey God, the Creator of all things.

There were three sons in the second beginning: Shem, Ham and Yapheth. Marry any of them as long as they are purely human and follow; and worship God, following His Laws. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and your mind and your soul, and your strength. Love your neighbor as yourself. That is the law of the LORD.

The Israelites were chosen as a priestly nation to carry out the Ten Commandments which were fulfilled by Yeshua, The Messiah. The Commandments were TEN because the Good LORD made man in His own image. He wrote the laws with his own Finger, giving the Laws to Moses – in His Image did he create male and female.

The Israelites are saved first if they believe in the Messiah, Yeshua; and then the rest of humanity if they also believe in the Messiah, Yeshua.

There is only ONE race of men: man. Color counts as an identification of men. Color is not a race.

"The State of Israel"
by: Tom

Ever since the Jewish state of Israel was reborn, the ghosts of past Nazis have ingrained the minds of the anti-Semites throughout our world.

The Aryan Bible has been blended with the Judeo/ Christian Bible and the new persecutions of the Jews begin again until the Jewish messiah returns.

All nations in the United Nations are turning against Israel, as Israel defends itself from the Fascist Moslem terrorist living along her borders.

God proclaimed, in Zechariah chapter 14, all nations would come against Jerusalem before the Lord returns, and the Jewish prophet's words are right on the mark.

The End of the Age will come in this generation. Thank the Lord a brighter future awaits his coming!
