Researching the Black Hebrew Israelite’s

Hello people!  In my studies, I recently ran across some information regarding the Hebrew origins of black slaves that were brought to America.  It’s a very intriguing and interesting concept that has been put forth, but my question is, “Is it true?”  I’ve watched a couple of YouTube documentaries supporting the historical narrative that they are, and I’ll soon be watching a few that are debunking the claim in order to hopefully find the truth of the matter.  Another question I’ve been asking myself is, “Am I wasting my time researching this?”  I personally don’t esteem one ethnic group above another, but I do know that the God of scripture made His New Covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah.  Please forgive me if I don’t know more than that at the moment because I’m still learning!

If it is true, of what significance will it be?  Will black Americans be joyful to finally be knowledgeable of who they really are rather than merely descendant’s of African slaves?  Will it draw them closer to the God of the Bible?  Will they drop all of their current culture, and embrace the Hebrew culture and language?  I could ask several more questions, but honestly I’m curious as to what the mass population of black people in America would do if this is found to be true.

I’m willing to embrace truth.  In the meantime, I will look into this subject hoping to find the truth about it.  Currently, I’m saddened to find out that some are taking this information and are literally esteeming themselves to be greater than others.  From my studies, the only one we are to esteem is the God of the Bible and His Son.  Until next time my friends, the Son says “If you love me, keep my commandments”. Will you?
