You won’t find the phrases black or African in the Holy Scriptures; instead, you’ll find terms like Ethiopians, Cushites, Egyptians, Hebrews, or other tribe designations, making it nearly hard to discern the presence of black or African people in the Bible. The Bible refers to Ethiopia 45 times; when you combine that with the references to Egypt, you get more references to Africa than any other continent in the holy scriptures.
