Y'all should keep dreaming

Isn't it obvious that the Bible was only focusing on the Jewish history?

Cities like Egypt and Ethiopia came into view because it had a part to play in the migration of the Jews and the later spreading of the Gospel.

Don't know where you got your facts from...Twisting ancient city names just to correlate with the present one...

A very bad effort indeed!

Your father, mother and ancestors are the miserable ones
You retard and retar*d.
That was a joke right there but your self acclaimed sanctimonious self was so eager to type.
I apologize if people feel it's an expensive joke but you with the lack of courtesy and decorum needs to learn how to put your fingers in your as*s.

Shut up!
There is nothing like twisting.
No book ever written centuries ago made mentions of nations, towns, cities or has more historical sites than the Bible.

Hey!

Today is a holy day....keep it less-aggressive!

You should've read in between the lines before jumping at me...

I was not arguing that fact...of course the Bible is good when it comes to listing out.and describing Jewish cities and migration routes....That's true!

But my problem is why these Africans try to twist these names to correlate with their present cities undecided
