'Peculiar People - A Scholarly and Literary Reader', by Tzipporah Ibrim is a reader for both contemporary Hebrew-Israelites and Gentiles who are interested in knowing biblical and historical information surrounding the awakening of the House of Jacob in the latter days. Black/ African Americans are actually descendants of the House of Jacob, a fact that is being shared and talked about throughout the four corners of the earth. Black Americans who are discovering this powerful truth are sharing this Good News with family, friends, and co-workers. 'Peculiar People' provides researched information that can help those who are interested in gaining an understanding of their foundational beliefs.

​

What is the biblical proof supporting their claim? Are there prophecies directly connecting the descendants of the African slave trade and diaspora to the House of Jacob? Are there historical facts to support their belief?  Is/ was the Hebrew Messiah (known by most as Jesus) and his His people Black? Was His Name really 'Jesus', if not, what was it? Is the Mighty One of Jacob, the Creator Black?

​

How are contemporary Hebrew-Israelites sharing this good news within their communities? Is the internet and all of its social-media platforms the only way to enlighten and inspire family and friends? Can these wonderful truths be shared in traditional and contemporary platforms as well?

​

'Peculiar People' is divided into two sections, 'Knowledge' and 'Applied Knowledge'. The former is comprised of chapters that deal with biblical and historical facts that support the claim of Black/African Americans and their ancient, ancestral heritage. It is a must for those seeking a solid, factual understanding of the contemporary Hebrew-Israelite perspective. '

 

Applied Knowledge' offers inspiring and even humorous ways of sharing this awesome discovery. While Youtube, Facebook and even Twitter are viable, informative platforms there are still good ol' fashioned editorial cartoons, comics and even sci-fi/ fantasy novellas that work just as well. Traditional art mediums such as painting and praise-writing (psalms) are eloquent methods for sharing the ancient heritage of the so-called Negro descendant of the African Diaspora.

​

Whether for personal, informative research or inspiration and enjoyment 'Peculiar People' is a necesary book for the contemporary Hebrew-Israelite, and for those seeking proof of the Most High's Hand at work amongst His people in these latter days.
