Hebrew Israelites, also known as Black Hebrew Israelites, are an umbrella term used to describe various African-American religious groups who believe they are descendants of the ancient Israelites mentioned in the Bible. The beliefs and practices of Hebrew Israelites can vary among different groups, but they generally reject the traditional interpretation of the Bible and hold distinctive interpretations of scripture.
There are several different sects and organizations within the Hebrew Israelite movement today. Some of the notable groups include the Nation of Yahweh, the Church of God and Saints of Christ, and the Israelite Church of God in Jesus Christ. These groups are predominantly African-American and have followers across the United States and other parts of the world.
It's important to note that the beliefs and practices of Hebrew Israelites are not universally accepted or embraced by all African-Americans or people of African descent. The movement is considered controversial and has been criticized for its extremist views, including being labeled as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
