Begging your pardon, but what kind of question is this anyway? 

- It seems to matter in religions of who is and isn't Jewish.

- So do you believe a white person wrote it back then?

- Or there were no white people back then to write it?

Myself I've no desire of Jewishness. 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. 

I have no idea who wrote it.  And as I said, not everything in the Dead Sea Scrolls is scripture.  We have no idea what she looked like except she was beautiful and from culture to culture, that varies.

- There is scripture says Sarah was Chaldean? Or that she lived in Chaldean?

Genesis 11 says this:  "Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor and Haran. And Haran became the father of Lot. 28 While his father Terah was still alive, Haran died in Ur of the Chaldeans, in the land of his birth. 29 Abram and Nahor both married. The name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife was Milkah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milkah and Iskah. 30 Now Sarai was childless because she was not able to conceive.

31 Terah took his son Abram, his grandson Lot son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, the wife of his son Abram, and together they set out from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to Canaan. But when they came to Harran, they settled there."

According to this passage, Abraham's father lived in Ur of the Chaldeans.  He had three sons there.  One son, Lot's father, died there.  Abraham married Sarah there.  They moved from Ur of the Chaldeans to the Promised Land, but stopped along the way to settle down.

I remember Moses also had an Ethiopian wife? Was Moses from The Tribe Of Judah?

Moses was from the tribe of Levi.

When did Jews become Ethiopian?

There are thousands in Africa who have converted to Judaism. There is a sect of them who claim they have the ark of covenant. It's not true of course, but they are adamant about this.

It would seem indicative of that, yes. 

Genesis 11:31 ³¹And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran his son's son, and Sarai his daughter in law, his son Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran, and dwelt there.

This is the stuff paul warn about. To speak about controversial things. In matters of law, genealogy and disputes on the flesh. I think God made all races his children through Jesus.

Many went down the Nile. It is a well established fact. Read your history.

Operation Solomon (Hebrew: מבצע שלמה, Mivtza Shlomo) was a covert Israeli military operation to airlift Ethiopian Jews to Israel from May 24 to May 25, 1991. Non-stop flights of 35 Israeli aircraft, including Israeli Air Force C-130s and El Al Boeing 747s, transported 14,325 Ethiopian Jews to Israel in 36 hours.

My dad was Israeli and my mom British. I grew up in a tepid church - not exactly a cult, and not exactly much else either. No one can understand the Israeli mind really. On the one hand they are despised on the other elevated. The only distinction in my mind lies in the way the Tankh expressed it. The New testament has many hooks into ancient scripture, yet much of the true believer's heritage is obscured by theology. It is no accident that we are who we are.

The bible says that ALL people have fallen short of God's glory, not just some. ALL have sinned. There is none that is righteousness. We are NOT saved based on our nationality, skin tone, where we live, how much money we have, what clothes or hair styles we have or our good deeds. Our salvation is based on believing what God has done for us through His son dying on the cross.
