Moses was born in Egypt in the time of the great Pharaohs, yet tales of his accomplishments still cleave to the very soil of Africa. Certain tribes migrated toward the resources of trade linked to the Nile River. Carried with the tribes and their migration was many tales of Moses. Through the years of migration the various tribes carried the name of Moses all the way to Africa’s West Coast.
Religious Scholars have traced many spiritual practices of those native to Africa’s West Coast, and they lead directly back to Egypt. The acknowledgment of ONE SUPREME BEING has its origin as far away as ancient Egypt.
In time, customs and beliefs traveled with the flourishing slave trade towards the West Indies and southern United States. There is no coincidence that beliefs and customs of many people today have some form of Mosiac influence. Hebrews of the African West Coast explains convincingly how Moses’ influence became so great there.
When we examine how tens of thousands of Africans were brought to the New World in slavery, we can see Moses’ influence as a continuous process and not something, which developed after they were brought to this new land. Ancient Israel is noted for being well established in the use of herbs and natural medicinal remedies. Early Israelites assigned certain powers to herbs, roots, stones and other things found in nature.
The amulets, prayers, and recipes that were considered sound, came from Moses himself. In earlier times some things were altered to meet the particular needs of a territory. As the earlier scribes rewrote the Bible and the Code, to meet their own particular needs.
The “Book of Thoth”, that was written in symbols and numbers, (hieroglyphics) and is said to contain THE KEYS TO HEAVEN if anyone could interpret it. It has been told that God HIMSELF wrote this BOOK. Its Secret Wisdom, legends say, Moses sought and found at Koptos/Coptos, a BOOK that was “Born in Paradise”. The ruins of Koptos/Coptos lay in the center of the modern City of Qift. It was a religious and trade center in Upper Egypt. Located at the crossroad between the Nile Valley and the Eastern Desert routes to the Red Sea.

God did not lead them through the land of the Philistines, although that was the most direct route from Egypt to the Promised Land.

Instead, God led them along a route through the Red Sea wilderness.”
