David was described as being (H#132) 'admônı̂y- red (ruddy) "reddish (of the hair or the *complexion): - red, ruddy (1 Sam.17:42). "Adam" (H#120)in Gen carries this same context (Gen.1:26) 'âdâm ruddy, that is, a human being (an individual or the species, mankind, etc.): - X another, + hypocrite, + common sort, X low, man (mean, of low degree), person. from a root that is---- (H#119)'âdam which means "To show blood (in the face), that is, flush or turn rosy: - be (dyed, made) red (ruddy)."
Is this a literal red? Yes ("red" "complexion" in relation to showing blood in the face so if not constantly a "reddish" then at least light enough to blush and be "flush".)
"Black" is used in relation to the skin to describe afflictions (spiritual and physical states) NOT race. Sadly "black Hebrew Israelites" like to pervert the context of these verses and just focuss on the "black skin" in their attempts to replace Judah. This requires totally ignoring the Surrounding texts in all of thease areas.
Examples:
> Lam.5:10 Our skin was black like an oven *because of the terrible famine. (Thus it has NOTHING to do with their Race. Its a statement of degredation much like repenting in ash and sack cloth .)
Honestly i find it rather notable that most members of the "Black Hebrew Israelites" never seem to get around to sharing Torah or the Gospel in any real fashion cause they put all their time and effort into highlighting and exhaulting their race.
> Job.30:30 "My skin grows black and peels; my body burns with fever. "
kjv- "My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat."
עוֹרִי שָׁחַר מֵעָלָי וְעַצְמִי חָרָה מִנִּי חֹרֶב:
Heb. חרה, an expression of a thing that is burned and dried through the heat of the fire, like (Jer. 6:29), “The bellows is heated (נחר) ” ; (Ezek. 15: 4), “and the middle of it is burned (נחר).”
Whats the surrounding scriptures?
> Job.30:26-31
When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness. My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me. I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation. I am a brother to dragons, and a companion to owls. My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat. My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.
this AGAIN SHOWS affliction.
> Songs 1:5-6 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
........(Its obvious black isnt in relation to his race but Again in relation to affliction thus why he says look not upon me cause i am black. Its not a shame to be of a black race.) You, my friends, let me not be light in your eyes even if my husband has left me because of my blackness, for I am black because of the sun’s gaze, but I am comely with the shape of beautiful limbs, and if I am black as the tents of Kedar, which are blackened by the rain, for they are constantly spread out in the deserts, I am easily cleansed to be like the curtains of Solomon. The allegory is that the congregation of Israel says to the nations: I am black in my deeds, but I am comely in the deeds of my ancestors, and even some of my deeds are comely. If I am guilty of the iniquity of the [Golden] Calf, I can counter it with the merit of the acceptance of the Torah (Song Rabbah). He calls the nations the daughters of Jerusalem because she [Jerusalem] is destined to become the metropolis for them all, as Ezekiel prophesied (16:61): “and I shall give them to you for daughters,” like (Josh. 15:45): “Ekron, with her towns (וּבְנוֹהֶיהָ).”
In relation to light white has the whole spectrum but in relation to color black includes all colors and white is simply the lack of color (which I have noticed has become a debate of its own among people that dont seem to know the difference, yet can be observed if you simpley take all colors (pain/crayons/..) and put in same location). What i personally dont really understand is why all computer spectrumes of color had red at both ends. Anyway, If the first man was red in complection and through time certain lines were formed in which the the tone of skin ranged from what we commonly call "black and white" what were the contributing factors?
First of all I have never actually seena "white" person I have seen real light tan or pinkish though.So does sunlight play a role in relation to the complextion (showing blood in the face)? does the spacific seedlines relate to complextion and if so how and why in relation to a red orgin? Feel fre to leave comments. I am also familure with stances that there was more than one man and woman present in days of Adam and Eve which is open for discussion in comments but please not discussion on universal evolution from apes (or whatever). Please if you want to discuss this post do so in relation to the Bible.
