[QUOTE]Originally posted by zarahan- aka Enrique Cardova: [QB] Africurious said: [b]^You cited a source for me in what you wrote. See pg 155 of Goldenberg's book where he says the idea of a dark Ham cannot be dated with confidence before the 4th century, where it appears in the Palestinian Talmud. He does mention the possibility that a black ham may stem from tannaitic traditions in the 2nd century. In any case, both these sources are 800-1,000 yrs after the OT was put together. [/b] ^Fair enough but on page 155 Goldenberg notes the Palestinian version which originated no later than 220CE, and gives that equal potential weight with the Talmudian referenced version- with the Palestinian version in fact being more specific as to the "darkening" of Ham;s skin than the more vague Babylonian text. Hence, your statement that the "earliest assignment" was the 4th century CE seems a bit misleading. According to the more specific Palestinian version, the "assignment" was before that. [/QB][/QUOTE]
