Response by Moreh Qanaa
editFirst of all, do not place profanity on my page. The fact that you communicate is such a manner shows what your true intent towards the Yisraelites really is. I am new to wikipedia, and I am not familiar with the acronym "POV" although it clearly holds a negative connotation, regarding the source of one’s data.
I am a Black Hebrew Yisraelite of the Tribe of Yehudah. I have been self-aware since 1991, and my information comes from men who studied under men who studied under Rabbi Wentworth A. Matthews. I am well qualified as a Black Hebrew Yisraelite Historian, and highly qualified to state our positions.
I have not edited the biographical information, or opinions of any group. I merely arranged the page in Chronological order (for clarity) and added perspective to the opening statements. "Black Hebrew Yisraelites" do not consider themselves to be African. That is why there are "African Hebrew Yisraelite" congregations. WE DEFINE WHO WE ARE, NOT YOU!
I totally disapprove of the propensity of others, to debate my nationality, but this is a big planet, and everyone has been told who they are. It is up to them to find out if they have been lied to.
You would do better not to assume what group I am affiliated with. Lay aside your arrogance, and begin to communicate as a part of the "collective". Throwing around titles, and seeking that wikipedia strong-arm the history, and definition, (Black) Hebrew Yisraelites, is typical of the "Imperialist" mindset.
I will be encouraging all non-Caucasian people to fight to reveal the truth about their nationality, and history, prior to the Caucasian re-arrangement, and re-naming of the earth. Example: There never was an Africa, until the Caucasian decided to call it that. Do you really think you can hide the truth because it does not suit you?
If Wikipedia does not allow information that is opposed to "classic" (conquered) world history, then they should formally state it as a matter of policy.
Things everyone should know about "Black Hebrew Yisraelites"
edit•. There are many sects, and congregations that do not believe, and teach the same thing.
• We do not tend to rely on heathen science, history, or philosophy, to validate our beliefs. We reject "radio carbon dating", archaeological finds, and religion as heresies; not approved by YHWH for use by the Yisraelites in any age.
• Yisraelites tend to believe that the Word of YHWH is greater than the word of man, and all of our proof is confined to HIS word as expressed by the Holy Prophets!
• Many of those who disagree with our assertions do not use the Bible as their principle source of information, We Yisraelites do not expect them to.
• To us (Black Hebrew Yisraelites) this is a battle between us, and a world that has agreed that someone else should continue to live under our YAH-given identity. We will not tire of teach Yisraelites who do not know the truth about their stolen identity, whether you like it, believe it, or not.
• Everything that we assert is backed by biblical Prophesy... EVERYTHING! If any science, history, philosophy, or religion teaches otherwise, they are teaching lies.
• The term "Black Hebrew Israelites" is definitely the incorrect the description of our Nationality. We are the "Only Hebrew Yisraelites" and we range in color from "Mulatto Red" to deep "Dark Brown" commonly referred to as black.
• The claim of being a Hebrew Yisraelite is made (by us) because of the lineage of our forefathers, and the prophecies as to where their descendants (us) would dwell in this age, as well as the general appearance, and conditions of our people.
• We are not a hate group, not even the extreme street corner teachings are based upon hate. They are based upon anger, and outrage over what the bible has revealed to be the pillaging, disenfranchisement, and subjugation of the children of God.
Anti-Semitism"
edit• Anti-Semitism, as defined on "dictionary.com" is: 1) Hostility toward or prejudice against Jews or Judaism. 2) Discrimination against Jews.
The same dictionary gives the following definition of "Jew": 1) An adherent of Judaism as a religion or culture. 2) A member of the widely dispersed people originally descended from the ancient Hebrews and sharing an ethnic heritage based on Judaism. 3) A native or inhabitant of the ancient kingdom of Judah.
The Yisraelites (BHI) are descended from both the inhabitants of the ancient kingdom of Judah (Judah, Benjamin, and half of the Levites), as well as from the ancient kingdom of Yisrael (Rueben Simeon, Dan, Naphtali, Asher, Issachar, Zebulon, Joseph, Gad, and the other half of the Levites).
So again, the term anti-Semite cannot apply to any of the twelve tribes, of the children of Yisrael.
The BHI's are anti-religion, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We are also anti-Edomite because of their adversarial position against our forefathers, and ourselves at present. The scriptures condemn them as "the people of God's curse".
A Caucasian adherent of Judaism cannot be a Jew, or an Yisraelite, unless he is descended from Jacob/Israel. My understanding is that both we, and they, are laying the same claim to nationality.
Therefore, anyone who does not consider Caucasian Jews to be "anti-Semetic" is biased against out claim. Anyone who considers us to be "anti-Semitic" is biased against our claim. The common denominator being bias against our claim of being the sole legitimate heirs to the promises of God, and the covenants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
