Responsa Regarding Verses Such As Amos 9:7

• Bless you sister.No disrespect but can you explain these verses,Daniel 7:9,Rev.1:14-15, and then Amos 9:7 says they are as the Ethiopians unto him.Ethiopians also have hair like wool and feet like burned brass.I am just wanting your point of view on this in a peaceful respectful manner my beautiful sister.Bless you.

• Absolutely. Let's begin with Amos 9:7. This is to be read in context with Jeremiah 13:23, Song 1:5-6, Job 30:30, and Acts 13:1. Israel had a problematic relationship with Kushites (Africans) based on skin color. As for "brass", "Chalkolibanon" is "from a compound of (5475) and (3030) (in the implied mean of whiteness or brilliancy)". Also, Daniel 7:9 can easily be explained: Jews and other Middle Easterners (including those in the Diasporas) can and often do have wooly hair (e.g., JewFros).
