I will not pretend like I know these peoples during these times before the kingdom of Yahshar'el was ever established personally since we never lead eyes on them and other then going by the information of the general population of enslaved Ancient Hebrews having red skin and understanding the family tree of mixing going down from Noah's famliy to Abraham's line. However I think it is safe to say many of these people back then looked alot different then our modern view expectations and perceptions would lead us to believe.

[@lojala]

Interesting and very informative video. My one point of difference is that Moses’ father-in-law did not teach Moses everything about his people, etc. You will recall that, according to the Bible, Pharoah’s daughter allowed Moses’ mother to nurse and raise him until he was “older” Hebrews 2:1-10 I’m assuming that a LOT of teaching went on in the home to prepare him for Egyptian court and to enable him to continue to carry on the Hebrew/Yahweh perspective.

Mariam was speaking against Zippora not because of her skin color, since Semites and Cushites looked similar, Miriam was being antagonistic to Moses and used Zipporah’s Culture as an excuse to challenge Moses.

Tacitus, the first century Roman historian, insisted that Abraham was an Ethiopian. Abraham had children from Black women. Hagar was an Egyptian woman who bore Ishmael, Abraham’s first son. The Ishmaelites were black and were identified with the Midianites. The mIdianites were the tribe that Moses lived among when he fled Egypt. He got his wife Zipporah from this tribe. Keturah, Abraham’s wife after his first wife Sarah died, bore him six sons. Keturah was a Black Canaanite. Their children became heads of Black Arabian tribes. One of those tribes was the Tribe of Kedar. The term Kedar means “dark skinned”. Kedar developed a powerful Arabian tribe. They were skilled archers and were considered might men in the Bible.

Thie bible contradicts your first point. Abraham was from Ur of the chaldees. Chaldean. Persian. Iranian. Abraham was middle eastern. Middle eastern people we have seen come in all skin tones from dark brown to light tan, but they are not black in the sense of hair texture but not white either as portrayed in movies. The so called woke community wants everyone in the bible to be black and thats simply not true. But we can deduce that ancient hebrews were not as white as mainstream media would want us to believe today. I genuinely believe ancient israel was very multi ethnic. As racially diverse as america is today. And they were all israelites. The rest of your points could very well be true.

This video mentions at 4:17 that Jethro had a song named Hobab. In KJV however, Hobab is referred to as the father-in-law of Moses in Judges 4:11 but inferred to actually be the brother-in-law in Numbers 10:29. Many modern versions of the Bible have the verse in Judges referring to him as the “brother-in-law” of Moses, but then have a footnote saying that other translations have “father-in-law” instead. Among those other translations is the KJV. The reason Hobab’s identity can seem confusing is because of the way Numbers 10:29 (in the KJV) is worded: “And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law,....” With this wording, a reader cannot determine from this verse alone whether “Raguel” or “Hobab the son of Raguel” is actually the one being referred to as Moses’ father-in-law. However, many readers tend to assume that the verse is referring to Raguel as the father-in-law because that name appears to be a variation of “Reuel” who is mentioned in Exodus 2:18-21 as the man who gave his daughter Zipporah to wed Moses. In subsequent chapters of Exodus though, the father-in-law of Moses is called Jethro (3:1, 4:18, 18:1-2, etc.). Now if the above assumption about Raguel being the father-in-law is correct, then Hobab would have to be the brother-in-law of Moses, and not the father-in-law which Judges 4:11 clearly states. To avoid a discrepancy between these two verses, some scholars assume that Reuel, Jethro, and Hobab were all the same person and that Raguel was Zipporah’s grandfather and a different person from Reuel. This explanation can be plausible when considering how other Bible figures had three names as well (e.g., see Acts 1:23). In this case however, it seems odd that Raguel would only ever be mentioned in Numbers 10:29 and never anywhere else. It also seems odd that Moses’ father-in-law should be called Reuel in one chapter of Exodus and then suddenly be called Jethro in all the rest. A more logical theory therefore would suggest that Reuel and Raguel were the same person, but that Reuel and Jethro were not. When Exodus 2:18-21 refers to Zipporah as Reuel’s daughter, the passage may very well be actually referring to her as the man’s granddaughter. For as other chapters in the Bible will confirm, it was quite common in the Old Testament for grandchildren to be referred to as children and for grandfathers to be referred to as fathers. A reader may also observe how Reuel is never actually referred to as the “father-in-law” of Moses whereas only Jethro and Hobab are. This scenario, which would make Reuel/Raguel the father of Jethro, would then make Jethro and Hobab the same person - namely, the literal father of Zipporah and the literal father-in-law of Moses. It would also firmly establish that Hobab, and not Raguel, is indeed the father-in-law to whom Moses is addressing in Numbers 10:29. Yet another logical solution to this issue is to speculate that Zipporah may have since passed away between the events in Exodus and Numbers, and that Moses then married for a second time. Hence, if his second wife was the unnamed daughter of Hobab son of Raguel, then this would make Hobab the new/second father-in-law to Moses. With such a solution, one could also then rationalize that when Numbers 12:1 refers to the “Ethiopian” woman that Moses had married, the verse is not making some sort of derogatory-like reference to Zipporah as some racist scholars theorize, but is referring to a completely separate wife who was of actual Ethiopian descent. The theory that Hobab was actually a separate/second father-in-law can be further supported by the observation that Hobab and his descendant Heber are referred to as Kenites in Judges 1:16 & 4:11, and that the Kenites were people who already existed in Abraham’s time as per Genesis 15:19. By contrast, Jethro was a Midianite priest (Exodus 3:1) and the Midianites were descended from Abraham’s son Midian (Genesis 25:2). In short, regardless of whether Moses had a father-in-law with three names (Reuel, Jethro, and Hobab son of Raguel), or whether Reuel/Raguel was the father of Jethro/Hobab, or whether Hobab son of Raguel was a completely separate father-in-law from Jethro son of Reuel, one thing is certain: The scriptures are error-free and that neither the original Hebrew writer of Judges nor the KJV’s translators were mistaken when referring to Hobab as the father-in-law of Moses. Hence, any translation that renders him as brother-in-law instead is in error.

[@worldtraveler8613]

If moses wife zipporah was biracial, this explains why the bible does say he married a kushite woman, even though i have heard some debate that but its in the bible. This could have been zipporah, as even today many white people consider biracial people to be black, and Moses family grumbled against his dark skinned wife... Or he could have married another woman after zipporah died, who was full kushite. That view is taken also. In either case, moses seemed to prefer african women. Which makes sense being that he was born and raised in egypt, and Egyptian people had darker complexions than they are portrayed in movies by caucasians in the modern era.

Good story, but where in the Bible do we read Jethro taught Moses? The fact is Mose’s mother taught him as “ nurse” to him under the Egyptian woman who drew Moses from the river.

[@ronkebarber6238]

Moses and Jethro (Hobab, Reuel) Exodus 18. Jethro, Moses' father-in law, wasn't dealing with Moses with a true heart. He feigned his love and worship of his God. He knew that Moses had fled from Egypt and came to his land, his home as a fugitive, wanted for murder. As a chief and a pagan priest of his people, he, I believe reluctantly accepted Moses as his son in law, because I also believe, that he wasn't really accepted in the family. When he met his wife, Zipporah, she and her sisters were herding the flock, but now, he was relegated to being the person to keep the flocks, way out in the wilderness, and far away from his wife and children. What could have happened to him? I believe the father in law looked down on him and treated him with disdain, so much so, Moses had a bad relationship with his wife and children. God met with him in the backs of the wilderness, alone and subdued. He used to be a prince, and a man of great authority, but now, this scene couldn't have been so far from who he used to be. This was a great insult to him, and God met with him when he was at his lowest. He couldn't even trust himself to be able to do what God had asked of him. Steven, in Acts 7:22, describes Moses as "learned in all wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and deeds". But now, in Exodus 4:10, he suddenly told God "I"m not eloquent...and slow of speech, and slow of tongue "? What on earth happened to him all this while, living with Jethro, or Hobab, as he was also referred to? After Moses got the children of Israel out of Egypt, suddenly, his father in law grew a conscience, because Moses now holds a high office- even higher than his! So, he came to him by flatteries, supposedly bringing his wife and children to him, and even his wife cursed him and called him a bloody husband! Exodus 4:25. After that, we never heard anything about her, but later, his sons became the priests of God. Numbers 10. Moses still was afraid of Jethro, in the obsequious way he deals with him, as if he were his superior! Moses then stopped listening to God, and only sought advice from Jethro. God had given him a sign on how to move and hiw to stop and camp: He would give the pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night, to give coverage, light and direction. But since the arrival of Jethro in the camp, Moses no longer waited for the cloud to move or rest, in fact, he personally invited and implored Jethro or Hobab, to "come with us...and leave us not", and even promised to divide God's goodness with him- without the Express permission of God, and the cloud was still UPON them by day, it hadn't moved, but they did! Numbers 10:29-36. He literally spoke to the pillar to move before it was ready, and to rest only at HIS command, I think simply to impress Hobab! (The same mistake he made at the Rock). In Numbers 11, Moses became overwhelmed by his task, because He had left God out, and God had kept silent as well! So, no wonder his language changed to "I'M not able to...). vs 14 - God had not at any time told him to do it alone! So he began to complain to God as the people began to complain to him. He even got Miriam and Aaron in trouble because of Hobab's presence, who had brainwashed him to make him think he needed his help, just because he had made an offering and sacrificed to God- when God had not told Him to, thereby, making the Most High God equal to all his pagan idols! Exodus 18:1-27. Moses had hearkened to him and instituted a human government over the people of God! And his 70 elders became the bane in Israel's history Ezekiel chapters 8 and 9, even though God had given Moses His permissive will Numbers 11:16--35, 12: 1-16, but sent a grievous judgment on the whole camp. God is God all by Himself! Jethro, who was the descendant of Keturah, the last wife of Abraham Genesis 25: 1-6, clearly had no portion in the inheritance of Isaac and Jacob, and was what Jesus Christ would call "a thief and a robber", John 10, for wanting to enter the fold of the sheep by another way! The legacy he He left has always been the problem with Israel up till this day. That was one of the reasons God had to send His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to come and seek and save the lost, to redeem them that have been sold under sin, and give eternal life to all who would believe and receive His sacrificial death burial and resurrection, by grace through faith in His love for us, and that He will soon return to redeem His purchased possession! Even so, come Lord Jesus!

[@KentPetersonmoney]

I always thought the father in law came from Ham bloodline and had nothing to do with Abraham but the way you explained it does make sense he would descend from Abraham since he was a Godly man and likely passed the knowledge of God to this father in law. Real question why didn't the teaching of God passed down through Easu descendants? Reason I thought the father in law came from Ham was because he was in Ethiopian.

So, I honestly have enjoyed all your videos but frown on how you seem to embellish at times. You speak of Jethro's rejoicing in Ex. 18:9-12 but make some incorrect statements about Jethro that this passage clears up once read. Jethro did NOT meet Moses ON Mt. Sini, but at its base where he was camped, and after exchanging pleasantries, went into Moses's tent as expressed in verses 5-7 in chapter 18. As for your portrayal of Jethro being this great Priest of YAHWEH I must beg to differ. He was a Priest of ALL the pagan idol gods of the land he lived in. Abraham built the building that all Muslims are currently to encircle each year, for a repository for all the pagan statutes of the land. He did this for his son Ishmael and their descendants. Jethro was a Priest of all these PLUS, he DID KNOW of YAHWEH through folklore, but did not know for certain just what kind of G-d He truly was nor did he believe fully in Him as he only came to a fullness of trust and belief after hearing Moses's report in verse 1 as well as verse 8, to which in verse 11 he exclaims, " NOW I KNOW (H3045) that YAHWEH is greater than all the gods;(H430) indeed, it was proven when they dealt proudly against the people." This fully indicates that Jethro accepted these miracles as PROOF of who YAHWEH really was. Up until that point in time, he still had his doubts. Your seemingly majestic portrayal of Jethro would only be befitting AFTER this fact as recorded in Exodus chapter 18. Shalom
