[QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [QB] ^ From what I recall, Talmudic Jewish writings similar to Arab Islamic writings describe their respective ethnic peoples as intermediate between 'black' southerners and 'white' northerners so you can say that these peoples were what we call today as "brown" instead of black or white. Tukuler cites some rabbinic texts suggesting that some (original?) Hebrews were darker and black as well but you should ask him for that. Again, I recommend Goldenberg's book. I've only read excerpts of it, but he makes a compelling case for the presence of blacks in the Middle East and their influence in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. By the way, in regards to the Song of the Shulamite woman, the Hebrew conjuction word 'va' can mean either 'and' or 'but' depending on the context. Tukuler covered this before and there is an excellent article on it here: [URL=http://www.colorq.org/Bible/?d=Tanakh&x=SongofSolomon]I am black BUT/AND comely[/URL] [/QB][/QUOTE]
