Black People : Slave Food Menu

Re: The watermelon...

The watermelon is one of the best foods in the world to eat. It is a gracious gift from God that originated in the Motherland.

This wonderful fruit contains special nutrients and vitamins that are not only good for our bodies, but are also good for the melanin (the dark pigment) in our skin.

This God-given substance has the special ability to absorb tremendous amounts of heat...yet never gets hot.

When the evil ones discovered this, they insidiously set about to discourage us from eating it...

(Btw, the word "melan" is a Greek word meaning "black"...)
 
Re: Rosetta's comments...

"Dr. Edmond Bordeaux Szekely titled Gospel of The Essenes,the great Prophet – who was a member of the Essene sect that practiced vegetarianism..."

Here are my exact words:

In an enlightening book that was translated from the Aramaic (the language Jesus spoke) by Dr. Edmond Bordeaux Szekely titled Gospel of The Essenes...

"Since Jesus was a title and not the name of a person, it is difficult to understand the significance of your post concerning someone with the title of Jesus who belonged to the Essenes, with respect to dietary laws."

My post concerns someone with the NAME of Jesus, who is the foundation of the Christian faith. His name is Prophet Issa (saw) in Arabic...and Yeshua in Hebrew...(the name "Jesus" is Greek for "Joshua").

"The Lord God did not command our forefathers, 'Thou shall not kill.' The commandment is: 'Thou shall not murder.'"

The Bible says: "THOU SHALT NOT KILL."...period.

"The scripture never says that Daniel was a "vegetarian" ... that he never ate meat. Besides, we all know that beans, peas, lentils puts weight on a person. Given a limited choice of what to eat, Daniel chose to eat vegetables rather than unclean meat."

The 1st chapter of the Book of Daniel in the Bible tells us that after King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon conquered Jerusalem, he ordered Ashpenaz, master of his eunuchs, to “bring certain children of Israel, and of the King’s seed, and of the princes; children in whom was no blemish, but well-favored and skillful in all wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability in them to stand in the King’s palace, and whom they might teach the learning and the tongue of the Chaldeans."

And the King appointed them a daily provision of the King’s meat (i.e., “food”) and of the wine that he drank: so nourishing them three years, which at the end thereof they might stand before the King.” [Daniel 1:3-5]

“But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the King’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank.” [1:8]

In 1:12, Daniel tells the prince of the eunuchs who was in charge of them (himself, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego): 'Test your servants for ten days; let us be given pulse (i.e., “vegetables”) to eat and water to drink. then let our appearance and the appearance of the youths who eat the King’s food be observed by you, and according to what you see deal with your servants.' “So he hearkened to them in this manner, and tested them for ten days.

At the end of the ten days it was seen that they were better in appearance and fatter in flesh than all the youths who ate the King’s food. So the steward took away their rich food and the wine they were to drink, and gave them vegetables.

As for these four youths, God gave them learning and skill in all letters and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

At the end of the time, when the King had commanded that they be brought in, the chief of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar. And the king spoke with them, and among them all none was found like Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego; therefore they stood before the King. And in every manner of wisdom and understanding concerning which the King required of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters that were in his kingdom.”

(Daniel 1:12-20)

Daniel was a vegetarian, and although the word was nonexistent during his time, he abstained from eating animal flesh (which the word "vegetarian" means)...as did ALL the prophets if the Old Testament.
 
Originally posted by Rosetta:
Daniel abstained from eating meat because he did not have KOSHER meats given to him by the King of Babylon. Now post the references in the scriptures that say NO PROPHET of the OT ever ate meat as you claim.
Leviticus 11:7-8; Deuteronomy 14:8; Isaiah 52:11, 65:4 and 66:17; and Ezekiel 4:14 and 44:31. And if you have a Bible that contains the Apocrypha, read 2nd Maccabees chapters 6 and 7 for a tragic and horrifying account of how those who refused to eat pork were tortured and killed by the invading Gentiles (or Europeans)...

With respect to the words, "kill" and "murder"...one is a verb and the other is a noun. Most older versions of the KJV say, "Thou shalt not kill," using the verb. Newer translations say, "Do not murder," using the noun.“ Prophet Issa (saw) said:

God commanded your forefathers: ‘Thou Shalt Not Kill!’ But their hearts were hardened and they killed. Then Moses decided that at least they should not kill men, and he suffered them to kill beasts. And then the hearts of your forefathers were hardened yet more, and they killed men and beasts likewise.

But I say unto you: Kill neither men nor beasts, nor the food that goes into your mouth. For if you eat living food, the same will quicken you; but if you kill your food, the dead food will kill you also. For life comes only from life, and from death always comes death. For everything that kills your foods kills your bodies also. And everything that kills your bodies kills your soul also. And your bodies become what your foods are; even as your spirits, likewise, become what your thoughts are. Therefore eat not anything which fire, frost or water has destroyed. For burned, frozen and rotted foods will burn, freeze, and rot your body also.”
