Was Moses's wife black

Answer 1

Moses wife.......Yes. Moses' first wife Zipporah was "Shemitic" (descended of Noah's son Shem). However, Moses married a second time to a woman from Ethiopia (Kush)--whose name is never mentioned. One has to remember that Moses grew up in Egypt. This can be found in The Bible: Numbers 12: 1-15.

To correct the above, He married a Kushite woman. Kushite's were the southern neighbors of Egypt which is modern day Ethiopia and Sudan.

Answer 2
