Not all scripture is found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. That concept - that Sarah was pure "white" is used to "prove" that the real Jews are white people. It's a racist notion. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And only in it is given descriptions of Sarah. One of how beautifully White she was. Shalom RevelationWriter, Was that documentary online at all? I would like to watch it. As your your post title, I think you need to be careful how you choose your words as it could easily offend some people. I don't think it matters what colour Abraham and Sarah, or David or the Messiah was. I think it only becomes a problem when some groups try to determine the colour of the patriarchs as a way of designating their standing with God. However, there are some great studies to be carried out on various races around the world by working on the Table of Nations (Genesis 10) along with the Dead Sea Scrolls such as the Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees. But again, I don't think the skin tone of the Patriarchs is a revealing, provable or beneficial for us to define. It can only lead to a contention with others. Love & Shalom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah was a Chaldean (or at least came from Chaldea), but I doubt she was "very white" nonetheless (but I can't be dogmatic on that, nobody can - so she could've been). 4 hours ago, Tzephanyahu said: But again, I don't think the skin tone of the Patriarchs is a revealing, provable or beneficial for us to define.

I'm perfectly content being an English, Irish and Indian Gentile. I brought it up because of other religions that desire such claims of skin shades.
