Wow so many folks get scared of the thought that Asenath the Egyptian could possibly be Black (like Moses wife). Keep in mind maybe Adam & Eve were black who made Albino children who decided to multiply & be productive throughout the world. This is why til' this day you still see blacks that make white children with blue eyes and all (and this is ongoing). Two whites can never make black children, so fear on the part of the writers inventing that she was always a Hebrew doesn't pass (they make me suspect that they are hiding the truth due to shame). Most likely the Jews were embarrassed to reveal why they couldn't reveal one true story about Asenath & it definitely sounds like there was a color issue like Miriam had against Moses Ethiopian wife then Miriam got hit with leprosy for her eyes sinned against Moses wife God's creation. God continuously displays His love for the nations so why we who believe in Him as Jews & those that are Christian hate/react as though our bloodline couldn't be mixed with certain nations, color, & certain backgrounds just because society makes them look like outcast. Some of us Jews react as though no other nation can say they are jews unless you have a certain complexion then we'll receive you. Isn't the faith about being set apart for God Almighty to do His great works through us as His vessels? So why aren't we changing the world as the people of God by loving God's entire creation which are the different nations that are here on this planet. We keep conforming to govt. standards on how to treat others different from ourselves & that's not right. So what's the big deal if Asenath was a black woman God can use any of us human beings to do His work. That's why most people don't join either Judaism, Christian, or Catholic circles because those in power in those religious settings seem to always display whites as the only holy ones and not be real with their accounts of who God's people truly are (resemblance of the nations). Lastly, I can't understand why some white jews act as though there's no Chinese jews, African jews, Latino jews etc. They only tend to accept the European jews as their descendants from Russia for example, but that curly or wavy hair I see that they have obviously screams African descent somehwere down the line, but they deny it too afraid to even say it. Only the African genes produce curls no true asian, indian, nor European straight hair can suddenly produce curls unless they get with Africans they'll have wavy or curly hair. Still can't understand why some of God's people choose to hate rather than love others as themselves.
