When a black man let's his hair grow and don't comb it, it forms into freeform dreadlocks. That's exactly what Samson did. He let his locs grow and it turned into seven strains. All twelve tribes of Israel were people of color. They use to say israelites where middle eastern to avoid saying that they were black. There was no such thing as the middle east until the invasion of the romans, Turkish, byzantine empire took over and intermarriages with the native black population.
Not sure how you came to that conclusion, but that's quite a leap from what the evidence suggests.
@@DreadsUKdotcom you can search many scholars who agree to this conclusion and many people who live in that land
@@MultiTommie I've searched and found none im afraid. Perhaps you can suggest one.
@@DreadsUKdotcom there's many videos on youtube that would should you this
@@MultiTommie ah ok. So no peer reviewed publications. Just youtubers?
A surprisingly good and concise account of Samson and the Nazarite .
Thanks
The funny thing about the movie Samson, is that it portrayed Delilah as having compassion for Samson after she betrayed him. I doubt that's true but oh well..
Yeah I did find that an interesting addition to the story lol
I think ppl forget that they were black ppl around during the bible times and surprised to see Samson as a man of color when other prophets were also of color lol. But when it comes down to currently everyone should get along regardless of race or color I see too many disputes in the comments.
Wonderful content my friend! love both videos
Thankyou. More to come in the series
HAha. I am really enjoying this study, and cracked up when I saw MY illustrations in the cartoon. I did that for Saddleback kids ministry. Glad it is also being used for some dread history. I have dreads and illustrations Samson with locks was very fun!
Drop me a message dude :)
@@DreadsUKdotcom I just hit ya up in FB messenger!
@@PoczaMade can you message me. Might have a commission for ya!
@PoczaMade you still animating?
@@Elliottrecommends Hey hey! I am only doing the illustrations of animation. I wish I could animate. 😀 I hope all is good!
Outstanding video very well researched 😊
Thank you
Loved this
Great video!!! 🙏🏾🦁❤️
Thank you :)
So if Samson looked like that..which we now he did..then the rest of the Real Jews look like Samson as well. So who are those people in Israel right now..and why don't they look like this? #wearethetruejews
Quem está em Israel são os brancos descendentes de jafe judeus asquenazi
I am subscribing thank you for explaining Samson in detail I defiantly feel like my ancestral dreadlocks give me a sixth sense .
There Is an inherent identity with wearers of dreadlocks isn't there
I noticed that every culture decided to have a ruler or a king that vows to never cut their hair, , Viking/Norse King Harald Harfagre vowed to never cut or groom his hair until he became the king of Norway, he took on this vow after the pledge of Baldur, So after a Ten year quest he would have Long gold freeformed locks, at least until he had his hair cut.
On this, its difficult to comment simply on that description alone. Where Samson is concerned, the Hebrew descriptive word 'Pera' describes matted and dishevelled.
@@AmerIndianWarrior there is no basis fpr that conclusion in any of the text as evidenced in the video
@@AmerIndianWarrior im not sure what your point is. Or what it is you are picking a spoil with.
The whole point is as a community, we love to explore our history and herratige. I personally love study and evidence to help better understand history.
If you have evidence that paints another picture. I welcome it fully. But your not really giving any. You're just arguing.
@ Da Queen Po, this is a Powerful,well researched nd well clearly articulated presentation.I am not Rastafarian myself though people mistake me for being one and that does not bother me at all.i am actually Christian and my locks are a representation of my roots, They are also a proud display of my Culture.i appreciate this,keep educating people about such.i am definitely subscribing to your channel.One love from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 / Bulawayo.
Great video bro
I am very happy that black people are gaining much ground that was taken from them. They still have a lot of ground to gain, but to gain ground that was never theirs to begin with?! That would be the same as what Europeans and others did to them. That would never solve anything because it'll only continue a vicious cycle. (From one who truly loves my black brethren)
Because it says he had 7 locks and that a Nazarite should grow the "locks" of his hair (Num. 6:5).
'Yeshua' could not have been a Nazarite because he drank wine. He was from Nazareth, therefore he's called a NazaRENE.
Agreed. People get this confused. 2 very different things.
@@DreadsUKdotcom exactly. By the way, do you have dreadlocks yourself and how do people react to/treat "white" or Asian people with dreadlocks in the UK?
@@littleandre4957 there is no racial determination that qualifies a change of attitude towards anyone with dreadlocks.
@@DreadsUKdotcom you meant that justifies that right?.. By the way, I can see you have curly looking hair in your part 2 of this video but can't determine if it's dreadlocks or not yet because you always seem to tie them back.
Where is this video clip u are using? What's the name of it?
What's the name of the clips you are using with Samson with locs?
They're all linked in the description
@@DreadsUKdotcom those links don’t lead to the actual movie
Ah ok. Thanks for letting me know. Ill have to update them. But the clips are also mentioned in the video. There are 2 movie references to samson.
Just check the links. They are working for me. Its the last 2 links. The 2013 bible seried and the 2018 movie samson
@@DreadsUKdotcom I do not see any links
I only see comments. No description. Can you just give me the link or name of the movie or where to see the movie? When I googled it or look on Amazon this one does not come up, thanks.
He had locs
When did you cut your dreads off& why?
Ive had every other type of dreadlock. Free form, crochet, back comb. But never tried synths. So fancied a change.
@@DreadsUKdotcom You must feel entirely different! I think I'd be in shock! I've had short hair a few times in my seventy years around the block, but it always felt weird to me. It's just hair as they say and we shouldn't be identifying that as who we are. It is fun to look primal, however!
White people don't have dread locks that's just goat hair matted. That's why there is a difference between the sheep and the goat in the Bible. Sheep have WOOLY HAIR and the goat have straight hair. Now what people have WOOLY? And what people have goat hair? So stop telling those lies as if white people have dread locks. Y'all hair get matted up. There's difference. Just like white can't get an afro. You may try teasing your hair to make it stand up but it will never be an afro.
@@AB-eg8cf Indigenous people in North America have hair closer to a Caucasian person and they wear the dreads. Also, the first picture in Wikipedia for a search of "Dreadlocks" is a native American man.
@@swonkknows8646 Indigenous Native Americans are Hamite they are not the biblical Israelites. It is Israelites who have wooley hair. Just like Samson.
Judge 16:13
And Delilah said unto Samson Hitherto thou hast mocked me and told me lies tell me where with thou mightest be bound. And he said unto her If thou weavest the SEVEN LOCKS of my head with web.
There are other scriptures that also mentions locks.
Just because Indigenous Native Americans had the same skin color as African Americans we are not the same people. That is the lies that your people taught you and my people. Africans did not sell Africans. Africans sold ISRAELITES. Locks were worn by the Israelites other nations just copied it. Just like your people do today when they wear cornrows. That did not come from your people. If you look at the Egyptians hieroglyphics you will see that the Israelites they had in bondage had cornrows. Your people hair were not made for locks that's why your hair doesn't lock like our hair do because our hair is WOOLEY just like the Messiah.
And Shiva had jattas
Very true. We've also been to India and followed the Indian path
I love how Caucasian TRY to tell us OUR STORY 😂😂 of dreads 😂😂
K...
How many ? 12 or 7?
7
🙏🏾
Locks of hair and dreadlocks aren't the same thing. In the KJV of the Bible it clearly says, locks.
Tell us you havent seen the viddeo, without telling us, you havent seen the video :D
Her Nazarites were whiter than snow ,Lamentations 4:7.
Would be interesting to explore that a bit further. Lamentations is a book of poems, so in this context, using the word 'Nazarite' could refer to dreads in a poetic sense. Would be interesting to explore further.
You should read Lamentations 4:8, which says that, "But now their appearance is blacker than soot;..." Can white people turn blacker than soot? This whole chapter of Lamentations is most likely metaphorical.
Oooh, thanks. will take a look. Was it talking about the person or the dreads?
@@DreadsUKdotcom Here are both verses from the King James Version which @PercyLongshaft probably read:
7 Her Nazarites were purer than snow, they were whiter than milk, they were more ruddy in body than rubies, their polishing was of sapphire:
8 Their visage is blacker than a coal; they are not known in the streets: their skin cleaveth to their bones; it is withered, it is become like a stick.
I don't think either verse is speaking of actual physical attributes and not even hair. If you do take these verses as speaking of appearance, then it has to be admitted that the parts referring to actual appearance do not suggest people with pale skin or rather Europeans, nor the current Israeli who seem to be of Turkish descent. Ruddy in body is in no way European, nor can one be ruddy in body while being whiter than snow; so clearly the whiter than snow does not mean appearance as this was seen as strange to the eye such that Hebrew Moses' arm turning white as snow was seen as a miracle in Exodus 4:6. How is that a miracle if being white as snow as Lamentations implies is the color of the Hebrew originally?
Ruddy in body is not even the color of the people who are presently occupying the land who are called Israeli (Ashkenazi Jews). It is the color of many Palestinians, and Ethiopians who claim to be native Jews. Look at Yassar Arafat, and the so-called Beta Israeli. Dread locks or locks as the Bible suggests is an Afro-Asiatic thing. Either way, the ambiguity of meaning is why I wouldn't take Lamentations seriously about appearance of the people, nor of their hair.
On locks, you probably mentioned it in your talk, but it is found in Bamidbar (Numbers) 6:5 of the Hebrew Bible. Lately that verse is translated to English as letting the hair grow long; probably to distance that verse from a clear ethnicity that's not European. However, the Jews translate that verse as letting the 'locks' grow for the Nazrite. Dread locks as they are now called are clearly an African, and Hindu thing. You can look at ancient Egyptian, and Hindu drawings to see people wearing locks all over the place. Northern Asians, and Northern Europeans braided or curled their hair into 'locks.' Many Southern Europeans have very curly hair tending towards African hair like Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Vanessa Ferlito, Melina Eleni Kanakaredes, but Southern Europeans have no culture of 'locks' in the hair. The point is, no matter how many opinion based Euro-centric videos are made to the contrary, historically locks are an Afro-Hindu thing.
@@tyronerounds7120 It seems to me like cross referencing between translations and getting the original Hebrew words is what's needed if its skin colour that you are interested in unpacking.
For us, the dreadlocks are the focus.
In this light, we go back to the original Hebrew word which is uniquely used here and once more in ezekial but no where else in Scripture is this word used.. Yes, this is covered in the video.
No Samson had 7 braids not dreads
7 locs
A Side Boxing Channel yes that means 7 braids not dreads
@@kjstyles3530 As highlighted in the video with the words origin. They are not braided as the original hebrew word 'Pera' is used to discribe unkempt/dischevelled hair. Not braided.
No he didn’t. If his hair was left alone (untouched) since he was born a nazarite then his hair would naturally turn to locs jus like when we leave are afro alone it naturally freeform to locs
Yes. 7 locs...
The character it self is to bulky, Hebrew were super skinny. This guy is just to big
Repent of your error of DELIBERATELY misleading the people. Study to show thyself approval!
One Scripture (of many) clearly states that the Hebrews were a mighty, able bodied, smart, and warlike nation.
King Saul's suit of armor was so large that David couldn't move around the way necessary to battle Goliath. Shalom!
Lmao the fact it's a white dude telling US ABOUT OUR HISTORY but cant tell you who the original man is lmao almost like what's going on now and im sure since the test of time EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE BLACK BUT DONT - Paul Mooney
When you cant see history as 'human' history. You are the problem.
@@DreadsUKdotcom funny how's it's human history when your FOLKS HAD (Humans) as slaves then have the nerve to question ones statement on actual facts no sir you putting up this type of shit is the problem still using black people to make your money is the problem , running your mouth about history when it's a known fact you've tried to erase part of History is the problem and lastly you guys trying to explain history is the problem not me. I just do my part
@@Warrior-Of-JuDaH its obvious to anyone reading this tnat you're just trying to pick a spoil rather than a genuine intellectual debate. Move along.
