Can a Cushite Change His Skin?: An Examination of Race, Ethnicity, and Othering in the Hebrew Bible - The Library of Hebrew Bible / Old Testament Studies
Sadler, Jr., Rodney S.
By examining explicit biblical references to Cush and Cushites, a nation and people most modern scholars would deem racially "black," this book explores the manner by which the authors of the Hebrew Bible represented the Cushite, and determines whether differences in human phenotypes facilitated legitimating ideologies that justified subjugation.
