2019 Reprint of 1853 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Beeston's scholarship and his peculiar line of investigation enabled him to adduce some strong evidence that the Roman Empire was of Edomite origin. The grounds upon which he conducted his enquiry are Jewish tradition, Hebrew and Phoenician etymology and Scripture prophecy. The work is of significance to Black Hebrew Israelites (also called Black Hebrews, African Hebrew Israelites, and Hebrew Israelites), groups of Black Americans who believe that they are descendants of the ancient Israelites. Black Hebrews adhere in varying degrees to the religious beliefs and practices of both Christianity and Judaism. One belief often expressed is a belief that Europeans are descendants of Israel's twin brother Esau, also known as Edom. (Genesis 25:25).

The Nsö Concept of Time explores cosmology among the Nsö people of north-western Cameroon. It examines the concept of time within the Nsö world view, along with its implications for culture and traditional religion. The author addresses a wide range of metaphysical, ethical, anthropological, existential, and epistemological issues not only in relation to wider African philosophy, but also in relation to Western conceptions of time. The book is an important new contribution to African philosophy, cultural anthropology, African traditional religion, cosmology, and African metaphysics. It will appeal to scholars and students in a wide range of related disciplines. "This book is most certainly a first in the study of the Nsö concept of time. Remi Prospero Fonka has excavated, carefully analyzed, and presented in readable form, a complex metaphysics of time within the Nsö worldview. Students and researchers in African cultural studies, philosophy, anthropology, and sociology will find this book a useful resource. Those interested in comparative philosophy will also find in this book a cross-cultural phenomenological confrontation with Western cosmo-metaphysical models."¿Nelson Shang, Lecturer of Philosophy, The University of Bamenda and The Catholic University of Cameroon, Bamenda "By highlighting the importance of always considering the concept of time alongside aspects of the universe or cosmos, Remi Prospero Fonka succinctly and with meticulous methodology, avails the opportunity for an understanding of the measurement of African time. The cross-cultural confrontations especially with phenomenological existentialists makes this book a necessary tool for students and researchers in multicultural studies, African philosophy, cosmology, African traditional religion, and African metaphysics."¿Valentine Banfegha Ngalim, Associate Professor of Philosophy, The University of Bamenda, Cameroon

Vodou - kaum eine andere Religion ist mit so vielen Vorurteilen behaftet, wie dieser Glaube. Dank der Verbreitung von Klischees und falschen Informationen durch Hollywood und Medien steht Vodou im Verruf, schwarze Magie oder gar Teufelsverehrung zu sein. Dieses Buch soll aufzeigen, was Vodou wirklich ist. Es stellt eine überarbeitete und ergänzte Gesamtausgabe der beiden vorherigen Bücher des Autors "Der Voodoo des Bokor Marco" (Erstauflage 2008, Neuauflage 2010) und "Bokor Marco's Voodoo - Neues zu Theorie & Praxis" (2013) dar. Im theoretischen Teil werden u.a. die Geschichte und Glaubenskonzepte des Haitianischen Vodou, die verschiedenen religiösen Gemeinschaften, der afrikanische Vodun sowie die Klischees des "Hollywood-Voodoo" beleuchtet. Im umfangreichen Praxisteil erlernt die Leserschaft die Grundlagen der Vodoumagie, Rezepturen zur Herstellung von Ritual-Ölen, Magischen Lampen, Ouangas etc. sowie die Befragung von typischen Orakeln des Vodou. Das Buch richtet sich an alle, die sich ernsthaft über Vodou informieren wollen und an solche, die selbst diesen Glauben aktiv praktizieren möchten. Es ist dabei sowohl für Neueinsteigende als auch für Fortgeschrittene geeignet.

"Spirituality Journey Into The Spiritual" is my latest book concerning my discovery of the invisible but very real Spiritual World that has always been with us, but we disconnected from it. We all experience and know that the Spiritual World exist, but few of us seek a closer look at it. Well, I craved to get closer to the CREATOR (GOD), and apparently, I took a different turn and the amazing world of Spirituality opened to me.So this book is about the journey back to the beginning. Spirituality is the essence of the CREATOR that existed at the beginning of Creation. It existed with the African people on the African continent, and it immersed itself with us for thousands of years before the European invaders showed up or existed. Spirituality is that which is consistent and prevalent throughout the entirety of all existence. Spirituality ushered us into the Physical Realm. It guides us through our journey in the Physical world, and it escorts us back to the Spiritual World.This book is not about spirituality as a religion, and should not be viewed that way. It is my goal to introduce you to the other side of God, to that familiar place and space in eternity that we all come from, that we are constantly in contact with during our time in the Physical world, and that we shall return to when we complete our assignment. In "Spirituality Journey Into The Spiritual" I share this Saul becoming Paul bible story experience in its entirety. I was a Christian for many years and yet I had a thing against God's people. In the name of Christianity, I would have gladly taken up a stone to destroy them because of their heathen ways. I was totally against their culture and the traditions they practice. I found their religious voodoo and witchcraft spiritual systems distasteful. Though I found their ways abominable towards God, yet, somewhere deep within me, I had an indescribable love for them beyond my comprehension.In 2017, something shifted. I found out that I was one of those detestable heathen people I was against. They were my people: the African people of God. These are the very people to whom the Hebrew-African Bible was written about and who wrote much of its content. How incredibly stupid I felt when I found this information out. Upon finding this out, I ran through every emotion imaginable before running out of emotions to feel or have. I was a soulless person- a living zombie for a few weeks. The pain of this deception caused great rage in me, and it left me feeling seriously ill. The deceivers had destroyed my world again for the second time. My anger of being deceived prompted me to set African people free through memory recovery, African identity, cultural education, and Spirituality.This cycle of wickedness ends now!

Shamanism has always been of great interest to anthropologists. More recently it has been "e;discovered"e; by westerners, especially New Age followers. This book breaks new ground byexamining pristine shamanism in Greenland, among people contacted late by Western missionaries and settlers. On the basis of material only available in Danish, and presented herein English for the first time, the author questions Mircea Eliade's well-known definition of the shaman as the master of ecstasy and suggests that his role has to be seen as that of a master of spirits. The ambivalent nature of the shaman and the spirit world in the tough Arctic environment is then contrasted with the more benign attitude to shamanism in the New Age movement. After presenting descriptions of their organizations and accounts by participants, the author critically analyses the role of neo-shamanic courses and concludes that it is doubtful to consider what isoffered as shamanism.
