Galatians 4:22-24
22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave woman and one by a free woman. 23 But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while the son of the free woman was born through promise. 24 Now this may be interpreted allegorically: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar.

One can argue that if this is allegory, then so is the whole Bible.

Elephantine papyri and ostraca - Wikipedia
Ancient marriage documents generally formalized already existing relationships. In this case, Ananiah and Tamut already had a young son when the document was drawn up. Because Tamut was a slave when she married Ananiah, the contract has special conditions: usually, it was the groom and his father-in-law who made Jewish marriage agreements, but Ananiah made this contract with Tamut's master, Meshullam, who legally was her father. In addition, special provision was made to free the couple's son, also a slave to Meshullam; perhaps Ananiah consented to the small dowry of either 7 or 15 shekels (the text is ambiguous) in order to obtain his son's freedom. Future children, however, would still be born slaves. In contrast to Jewish documents like this one, contemporaneous Egyptian marriage documents were negotiated between a husband and wife.[28]

Hell the fukk no, FOH :camby:
West and Central-African rooted spirituality and history is what we need. That’s where we come from before we were kidnapped to the Americas.

What we need is to know the history of our people from our ancestors in Africa to our Ancestors in the Americas. So we know what we preserved and built upon in the Americas and how to trace is back to Africa.

I’m tired of watching videos of our people glorifying this shyt

If the old African customs were so good then why did our ancestors get captured?

Such fulsome praise is embarrassing but, nonetheless, much appreciated, ʾaḥi. I must add that I am not a Rav ('Rabbi') and, while I am allowed to quote decisions that have already been laid down, I do not have authority to make specific legal rulings myself (see my post #416). I learned a great deal from a late and honored relative זֵכֶר צַדִּיק לִבְרָכָה who headed the Department of T'na"ch Studies at Hebrew University, Y'rusholayim for over 30 years. He used to say that one day he was
going to write a book called 'A Quotation For Every Occasion', only to realize it already exists—it is called the T'na"ch; thus we learn: hafoch bahh wahfoch bahh, d'choloʾ bahh ('turn it over and turn it over again, because everything is in it').
