Ethiopia Has a Founder in Your Bible. You've Never Heard His Name.

Open your Bible to Genesis chapter 10. It is the longest list of names in the Old Testament. 32 verses. 70 nations. The genealogy of every people on earth, organized by the three sons of Noah. And almost every Christian who has read it has done the same thing. They skim it. They move on. Most pastors do not preach on it. Most Bible study guides skip it. Most readers cannot tell you a single name from it without looking. But there is a name in that chapter. A specific name. In verse 6. The name of the founding ancestor of an entire nation. A nation that, two thousand years later, would become the first country on earth to officially adopt Christianity. A nation that, today, holds the largest biblical canon in the Christian world. His name is Cush. And once you know to look for him, you will find him everywhere your Bible has been quietly pointing. 🔔 Subscribe to Ethiopian Bible Revealed — where we open the 81-book canon the Ethiopian Orthodox Church has preserved for 1,700 years. 🔗 Watch the series: Part 1: Jude Quoted This Book.
