Did they hide the Ethiopian Bible from us?

[00:00:00]Did Europeans hide the Ethiopian Bible in order to keep black people down and maintain their control and oppression?

[00:00:10]And did they change the name of God?

[00:00:12]Didn't let you know what it is and try to equate themselves as God so that you will continue to bow down on them, bow down to them.

[00:00:20]Most of this I'm going say no. A little bit of it I may come to an agreement with. And then does the Ethiopian Bible hold all the real scriptures that Christians should be reading?

[00:00:36]Let's see what she has to say about it.

[00:00:37]>> Black people, why would they hide this from us?

[00:00:40]>> Proverbs 17, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. Foods despise wisdom and instruction. You notice in all caps, Lord right there. Seriously, check this out. You look in the Ethiopian Bible, Proverbs 7, the fear of Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments. Blessed be the man who fears Yahweh, who delights greatly in his commandments. His offspring will be mighty in the land. The generation of the upright will be blessed. Now explain to me why did they change the name Yahweh to lord and then turn around and call all the rulers of the land lords and all the royalty were called lords and the enslaved were to call their master Lord. Now if you want the name Yahweh returned to your Bible grab the Ethiopian Bible. I'll link it below. It has the full 88 books. It has the full 88 books, not the 66 because they have kept this the only place that wasn't captured by Rome. Ethiopia managed to keep everything in one place. You can verify that in World War II when the allies removed the monster Mussolini from committing atrocities against the Ethiopian people. Why didn't they teach us this in school? Now we have the names Yahweh returned to the Bible with the Aprica and the books of Enoch still there. The book of Jubilee still there.

[00:02:03]If you see that link below and it's under 99 dog bones, go ahead and grab it because baby, it also has the audio included. Okay. Well, and beautiful illustrations. What more could you ask for? I'mma link it below.

[00:02:15]>> Well, let's talk about some of the claims that she is making. But before I do so, let me say this very clearly. If you want to keep a people down that you have been oppressing but you can't utilize the same tactics that you used before, feed them a bunch of misinformation that will keep them ref focused on the wrong thing instead of focusing on the right thing which is to gain equality and access so that you can have as equal an opportunity to prove how unequal you are. So let's look at some of the things that she's talking about and show you how she doesn't understand what she is actually talking about. So when you compare the Ethiopian Bible to comparing it to any other Bible that you may find, yes, Yahweh is replaced with the term Lord. Was this done in order to keep the Ethiopian people down? Absolutely not.

[00:03:05]I'll get into their history in a minute.

[00:03:08]But this was done not because of Europeans, not because of Ethiopians.

[00:03:12]This was done because in the Jewish religion to say the name of God you they thought you would die. So the name of God was hidden. The tetragrammatan is hidden with the the yode vah is hidden and changed to just be Lord in all caps to prevent a person a Jewish person from saying the name of God. It has nothing to do with trying to hide something. It is merely a superstition that the Israelite people came up with because they feared saying the actual name of God. So it would be like instead of you actually saying my name because if you said my name then I would kill you, you come up with a nickname or a a code to be able to say my name or to represent me. That is it. There's nothing else to it.

[00:04:08]And to give a prestigious name to those who are landowners, those who are in control, that is not a European invention. That is something that societies ever since they decided we were going to have chiefs, we're going to have shamans, we're going to have great warriors, military generals, landowners, people in whatever industriousness that they had at their time frame in their society, they're going to have some type of title.

[00:04:38]So if you were existing uh in in in the in any time frame in any country those who were in charge had titles. Today we call them like Republicans and Democrats.

[00:04:49]We call them judges. We call them titans of industry.

[00:04:55]In the time of kings and queens in Europe and Africa and Asia, they had lords or titles that were similar to lords. They have dukes, they have earls, they had all these different titles from different cultures that you can find that would demonstrate that people of of power gain titles. So it has nothing to do with that. Now I will agree during slavery in America, you didn't call your master lord, you called them master. Now if you have a son who is the youngest I believe he is considered to be a lord but also wives call their husbands lord as Sarah called Abraham Lord. So the term is used in many different ways and formats throughout the history of man and is really relative to the culture that you're examining as to what were those titles because if you were examining and I don't know the names but if you were examining Zulu culture they didn't use the term lord but they had an equivalency of that for people who were under shaka his generals had a title the land owners the more powerful people had a title. So to generalize it only based on the transatlantic slave trade just shows that you have a certain agenda that has a very narrow focus which is not integrity at all. It's just misinformation and focusing on that narrow view.

[00:06:36]Ethiopia.

[00:06:41]The Ethiopian Bible is now becoming a huge conversation, especially within the black American community, saying that they hid information from us. But Ethiopia was able to survive because they were never conquered by Rome. But many people don't understand how the history of Ethiopian Ethiopian Bible came to be. Now, at the time frame, it was considered the Axim Empire. The Axum Empire. The Axum Empire was a polytheistic empire all the way up to 330 CE and even beyond in actuality.

[00:07:19]So there was no Ethiopian unic in first century that came to Ethiopia and initiated the king and queen or initiated the queen in the case of the story and then all the land became Christian.

[00:07:33]In the first century, the term Ethiopia just meant burnt face. And it most likely referred to a Kushite kingdom or tribe or nation that was south of Egypt but north in but north of Ethiopia of of the Oxom Empire which we call Ethiopia today more than likely in northern Sudan.

[00:08:01]That's not the Ethiopia that the Ethiopian Bible comes from.

[00:08:07]Those are people who were more Kushite/ Ethiopians than they were oxyenites or what we call today Ethiopians. So the two so the story in uh acts about the Ethiopian unic has absolutely nothing to do with the Ethiopian Bible itself because we know that during first century the Oxom Empire they worshiped many different deities. They had their mountain gods, their sea gods, their their their volcanic gods, their their water gods, their fertility gods. They had all their different gods, whether they had the Cian gods or the DMT gods.

[00:08:51]Um, they had all these different gods all the way up until about the fourth fifth century.

[00:08:58]They still worship this in this format.

[00:09:01]Now, to understand how they became Christian, you have to go all the way, you have to wait until around 3:30 CE.

[00:09:11]Somewhere between 3:28, let me rephrase that. Somewhere between 328 to 330 CE, a Christian missionary named um Fermentius goes to Ethiopia.

[00:09:25]After crash landing in Ethiopia, he goes back up to he's brought in as a slave for a minute. Then he goes back up to um Egypt in Alexandria.

[00:09:35]Athanasius most likely uh authorized him to go down and convert Ethiopia because Ethiopia the king Kasana at the time frame wanted to have better relationships with Rome. Rome struggled and could never conquer the Oxen Empire. So he wanted so King decided that in order to have better relationships with Rome that he would go with what was trending to become the new religion of the Roman Empire. You see by 3:30 the council of Nika had occurred. Constantine had approved Christianity given Christianity a lot of power. Constantine's mother, Helena, was became a big-time Christian and she wanted she was down in in um she was down in in Jerusalem building castles on top of old pagan sites, claiming to found the true cross, claiming to found the pool of Bethesda.

[00:10:36]She was making all these so-called archaeological claims concerning Jesus and her son had given her all this money to go and do it. So the writing on the wall was that Christianity was gaining major political power in the Roman Empire. And since at this time frame the Eastern Roman Empire which would later become known as the Byzantine Empire was the big money maker.

[00:11:05]And even though Christianity was all throughout the Roman Empire, King Gazana saw the writing on the wall and he said, "I'm going to convert over to Christianity so that Rome would stop attacking me so that we can be trade partners, allies instead of being enemies, instead of them trying to conquer us. The mountainous range um uh terrain made it very difficult for the Romans to conquer the Oxim Empire at the time frame. So when Fermentius came back and converted Izzana over to Ethiopia, he declared Ethiopia to be a Christian nation. But yet just like the Romans at that time frame in 3:30, other religions were legal. So the polytheistic religions that were all throughout the that was dominant in the Oxim Empire in 330 still was still practiced. The nation didn't just automatically convert over to Christianity at that time frame. It actually took uh a few about a century.

[00:12:08]I was going to say a few decades, but it actually took a century in order for Christianity to gain a massive foothold in Ethiopia to the point where we can see that Ethiopia to this day is still like 65% Christian.

[00:12:25]Uh but they got that good peace treaty with Rome. they got that trade relationship with Rome and they were able to maintain that now because the Bible hadn't been canonized yet. You see people like um Pope I I think his name was uh Cal Caladesius I may be saying his name wrong. I am saying his name wrong because writings from the po that particular pope who said that these books were heresy and these books are acceptable because we haven't had the ecumenical councils yet to solidify what the canon is because Athanasius was simply writing letters uh to the different churches on Easter of what he suggested that the canonized book should be for Mensius in 300 330 30 B.CE or 3:30 CE was allowed to bring books that multiple people considered to be scripture at the time frame.

[00:13:29]You see, he was able to bring the books of Enoch because from first century all the way up until about the midf century, the books of Enoch were considered scripture by many different variations of Christianity. Even those who pra who were part of the orthodox people like Irenaeus still thought that those were scripture whereas people like um Augustine thought that they weren't. So this was a developing process of the canonization of the Bible through all this time frame.

[00:14:07]But Ethiopia had no reason to say, "Well, Irenaeus is right or Augustine is right or Jerome is right or any of these so-called early church fathers because they were early church fathers to the Romans, not early church fathers to the Ethiopians."

[00:14:25]So, Fermentius brought way more books that they considered to be authentic that many first century Christians believe to be scripture.

[00:14:39]So, you get your 88 books.

[00:14:43]Now, Christians today will say, "Well, those 88 books, they were missing out of the Bible. They took those out of they never took them out of your canonized Bible that the majority of the world utilizes.

[00:14:53]because they were never part of that canon. Before the canon was established, many of the additional books were already decided to be heresy and so they were never part of the Bible. So they didn't take anything out of the Bible.

[00:15:11]It's just that the Ethiopians not being under Roman rule, not being under a papacy, created their own cannon based on what Fermentius brought to them. Now the question here is did Fermentius bring every book that was still considered to be scripture to many people? No.

[00:15:32]So when you look at your Ethiopian Bible that you that you may look into, oh, I'm going to go buy on because it's the black people Bible.

[00:15:41]Where's the Shepherd of Hamas? Is that in there? Because Fermentius didn't bring that one. He didn't bring the Shepherd of Hamas, so it didn't make it.

[00:15:50]The epistles of Barnabas. Where is that?

[00:15:53]It's not in the Ethiopian Bible. It didn't make it.

[00:15:59]The dedicate.

[00:16:01]These are the teachings of the 12 of the twel apostles.

[00:16:05]All the way up to 3 century. These were considered scripture by the church father. They were canonical.

[00:16:14]But it didn't make it.

[00:16:18]Fermentius didn't consider them to be scripture. So he didn't bring them.

[00:16:22]Right? So like when I mentioned the shepherd of Heras, you go and you look and you see that Irenaeus and Clement of Alexandria included it in the Kodakatus in the 4th century edition of it. You won't the Kodakus is not they're not all the same. You'll find differences in some of them some of the Kodakas depending upon who supported it. The epistle of Barnabas was considered scripture by Clement of Alexandria and included it in the Codex Anatus. The dedicay like I said was widely accepted up until the in the 3rd century in the early 3rd century which would be during that time frame that Fermentius would have been going down there but it didn't make it.

[00:17:07]Where is first and second clement in the Ethiopian Bible? Hm. It's not there. First and second is not actually in the Ethiopian Bible. So why didn't it make it? You would think that it would have been able to make it since it was a scripture. It was scriptures that people thought were authentic, but it didn't.

[00:17:35]Now even when you read it and you say that well it got the book of Enos. It got the book of Jubilees. It got the first and third of the Makabeans.

[00:17:44]But if you actually compare the Makabans in the Septuagit to the Makabans that is found in the Ethiopian Bible it's not the same.

[00:17:56]The it doesn't read word for word. The stories are a little bit different.

[00:18:00]So when you make this claim that oh these the Ethiopian Bible has all the books of the Bible. No it doesn't. It doesn't contain all the books of the Bible. It contains the books of the Bible that Fermentius brought to King Ozana. It contained the ones that they that early third century church fathers thought were correct. So this claim about the Ethiopian Bible is simply just a claim.

[00:18:29]There's nothing that supports it as being the true authentic Bible because there is no true authentic Bible.

[00:18:38]The anything that is any type of Bible if we look at the Eastern Orthodox who has a different one as well. These are just what men authorized what men said politically, power power-wise, culturally.

[00:18:55]These are the books that we are choosing.

[00:18:58]These are the ones. And then even some of the other popular books that was around during the time frame in Egypt of the Council of Nika, the Gospel of Thomas, it didn't make it into either one.

[00:19:11]Nope. You don't see a Gospel of Thomas at all now, do you?

[00:19:18]But the Gnostics held the Gospel of Thomas, the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, the secret writings of Paul. You don't see the acts of pe, you know, the acts of you don't see those in there. Why?

[00:19:29]Because different church fathers had different opinions based on their cultural belief, their biases, and their power structure. And when you open your eyes and can see that, you realize that the Ethiopian Bible has as much validity as the canonized Bible that most people read. And at the end of the day, they are all filled with contradictions because e Enoch contradicts Genesis.

[00:19:59]According to Enoch, the the giant Og was tied to the mast of the fl of the of Noah's ark. But according to Genesis, Og was never part of the flood story.

[00:20:14]And he didn't survive. He died like everybody else.

[00:20:19]And so you have a different Jubilees give you a different telling of the Cain and Abel story, a different telling. So that's why some of these books didn't make it into what the Romans decided was canon. But then you have because you have these some of these problems and the Ethiopians like anybody else are just going to Christian logic their way out of it to try to bring make it harmonious. But it's not. And that is why we deconstruct from Christianity.

[00:20:55]But be warned, do not deconstruct from Christianity just to run to a black version of Christianity for people who has nothing to do with who you are nor your heritage. My heritage for the most part is West African. Ethiopians ain't got to do with that.

[00:21:15]And so it means absolutely nothing.

[00:21:18]Absolutely nothing to me.

[00:21:21]But you know what means even more? my ability to think critically, my ability to research and study, my ability to ask good questions to get good answers, to think about those things, come to a conclusion, test them, and see what the results are. The Bible and Christians always say, "Test God to see what the results are." How many of you have tested God and God came up wanting? You tested God when you're sick. You tested God for your mother.

[00:21:50]You tested God for your children. You tested God for your finances. You test the God for your health and it came up wanting. But then when you let go of that God and then you start going out here and you exercise and you eat right.

[00:22:02]When you go to your health care checks, when you learn how to talk to your children and how to raise them, when you go to that job and you work and you excel at it and then you make sure you get the notoriety for it, when you build a business, who's doing that? Is it God or is it you?

[00:22:22]Is it you? And I think you know what the answer is because God has nothing to do with it. Otherwise, slavery would translate slavery and all other types of slavery would have ended a long time ago. Otherwise, the person who's being molested right now would be saved. The person who's dying right now sickness would be saved.

[00:22:43]If God has something to do with it, every black person in America who prays will be financially independent. But you're not. You want to be financially independent? Get on a budget. Make yourself more marketable to the make yourself more valuable to the marketplace. Provide a product or service that the marketplace wants and desires. Learn how to get it out there and make those transactions happen. It's not going to happen because you prayed and it's damn sure ain't gonna happen because you paid tithes. So the Ethiopian Bible has nothing to do with me and my life. It has nothing to do with you nor your life and nor does any other Bible or any other religious concepts. But what do you guys think?

[00:23:24]And always remember you have to free yourself to be yourself because your greatness is non-negotiable. Good journey, good vibrations.
