WesleyanA Quote: why is it that blacks always have to be divided? why do we always like to separate ourselves? i think it's insecurity. Good Question: I wonder is this bible scripture a part of our permanent Black condition?: Isa 19:2 And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians; and they shall fight each man against his brother, and each against his neighbor; city against city, kingdom against kingdom. (To look at it as I look at it, you'D have to believe the Original Ancient Egyptians were Black. )

I suspect it has something to do with Noah's curse on Ham ( the africans descended from his lineage)
Gen 9:22-25

Kenshin, I suspect it has something to do with Noah's curse on Ham Ham was never cursed by Noah. Gen 9:25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan. He shall be a servant of servants to his brothers. It was his son Canaan. Canaan remained in Canaan, i.e. Israel) ( the africans descended from his lineage)
Gen 9:22-25 I assume you mean Noah? Yes, all Africans are descended from Noah. In fact, all people are descended from Noah. We are not all descended from Canaan. His descendants stayed in Israel.

kenshin the isrealites descended from Shem not Canaan Yes. But remember the Israelites were given the land of Canaan here: Gen 17:8 And I will give the land to you , and to your seed after you, all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession. And I will be their God. Notice that it says: """in which you are a stranger""" The Canaanites lived in the land first before the Israelites.

Gen 10:6 The sons of Ham---Cush, Egypt, Libya, and Canaan---were the ancestors of the peoples who bear their names.
all the nations that came from these people are all found in africa Egypt, Libya, Ethiopia The Canaanites only lived in Israel. Gen 10:19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon (as you come to Gerar) to Gaza, as you go in towards Sodom and Gomorrah and Admah and Zeboim, even to Lasha. Here God gives Zebulun his borders: Gen 49:13 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he shall be for an haven of ships; and his border shall be unto Zidon.So we know that from Sidon to Gaza is considered Israel. So, no the Canaanites did not live in Africa. They lived in Israel.
