Biblical and secondary sources combined produced one of my favorite books of all time. It's crazy that I thought I knew so much from religious Sunday Worship. Then I started actually reading my bible after being humbled by The Most High. I noticed that the Israelites were not the same people that I initially thought they were. Especially when I got to Deuteronomy 28. I've looked into so many books and continued researching; but this book in particular grabbed my full attention. I was quite familiar with the verses; but this book enlightened me further and helped me understand things that I had questions about. I am ordering this book for family and friends. It's all about the laws; statutes; and commandments. Repent and come back to The Most High and The Messiah. Israel and other nations that fear Him.34 of 34 people found the following review helpful. Eye opening.By Karen WilliamsI purchased this book on the recommendation of a trusted friend. As I try to dig deeper into my history; I'll be reading a lot. My history isn't really taught in schools. Our history is barely a single; washed out and sanitized chapter in the History books. We are taught that we were in Africa; brought over on ships; worked as slaves singing negro spirituals in the fields; Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation; Rosa Parks wouldn't give up her seat; Martin Luther King Jr marched; and we were free. What about BEFORE 1619? What was really going on and happening as we were "slaves"? Are we REALLY free? What about OUR history? So I read these books to gain insight. I think that if we taught our children that they are Kings and Queens; and conducted ourselves as such; we could make positive change. So add this book to your collection.22 of 24 people found the following review helpful. Into Egypt Again With ShipsBy oogaBuggaAs usual; I allowed some to borrow this book and it was not returned. I NEED IT again. This book is scripturally sound and inspiring. If I could make this one mandatory reading for every american of African descent; I would do so. This is a GREAT book!
