GA, i am not denying the Kings list or anything outside of the Bible. I look to the Bible for reference and guidance, but not the only source of I knowledge and research. All i'm saying is that these descriptions, ALONG with HIS lineage, HIS actions and HIS WORDS, is what leads I to believe he is Jah. Nobody else did the things he did on such an immense scale, as well as having the lineage He has. Concerning the thread title, i mentioned a few post ago, He clearly acknowledges His lineage in the introduction to His autobiography. So that is settled.
I never said that the Bible is the only reference to HIM divinity, or that it is stronger than African history and list of Kings that go WAY before the Bible, of course. I mention these descriptions only because they are clearly stated and i know the source, i.e. proof of these descriptions. I am not someone who sticks to the Bible and rejects everything else. We just need to be aware for which reasons Rastafari as we know it came to existence, the first Incients took chapters from the Bible to overstand He was the second Messiah, CHrist in His kingly character.
