Ruddy | Synagogue of Satan Series | Rich Tidwell Sermon

Read: https://richtidwell.com/the-lost-shee... The Hebrew admoni (אַדְמוֹנִי) — used to describe both David and Esau — refers to a rosy, reddish complexion visible in fair-skinned people. "He was ruddy, with beautiful eyes and a handsome appearance." — 1 Sam 16:12 (King David) When the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, with a handsome appearance. — 1 Samuel 17:42 (King David) Cambridge Dictionary: Ruddy - "(of a white person’s skin) having a red color, often suggesting good health” Biblical depiction of healthy Israelites: "Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies." — Lam 4:7 In contrast, Ethiopians are depicted as possessing the same complexion as a Leopard's spots. “Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.” - Jer 13:23 Israelite complexion = "snow," "milk," and "rubies." Ethiopian complexion = "Leopard spots." Anyone opposing this observation is being intellectually dishonest and is guilty of prejudice. "He was ruddy, with beautiful eyes and a handsome appearance." — 1 Sam 16:12 (David) "My beloved is radiant and ruddy..." - Song 5:10 (Solomon) Solomon's 61st wife (Song 6:8) provides extra detail: “His abdomen is carved ivory… His legs are pillars of alabaster…” - Song 5:14-15 Israelite complexion = Snow, Milk, Rubies, Ivory, & Alabaster. Very strange way to describe someone with dark complexion, don't you think? What about Israelite eye color? “His eyes are like doves Beside streams of water…” - Song 5:12 (King Solomon) “Your neck is like a tower of ivory, Your eyes like the pools in Heshbon…” - Song 7:4 (Solomon's Wife) What color are streams and pools in Israel? Blue & Green. The description of Jesus ends the debate: His head and His hair were white like white wool, like snow; and His eyes were like a flame of fire. His feet were like burnished bronze, when it has been made to glow in a furnace..." — Rev 1:14-15 White. Snow. Molten Bronze (White). Israelite complexion = Snow, Milk, Ivory, Alabaster, White Wool, Molten Bronze, Rubies, & Ruddy. Israelite eyes: Streams of Water, Pools / Springs. Typical Israelites have light complexion with light eyes. This is not ambiguous nor offensive, it is objectively true. Josephus confirms their complexion through a striking detail. In a bathhouse, if a Jew "hid the circumcision of their genitals," they could "appear to be Greeks."
