Jethro was a Kenite, so his daughter Zipporah would have been at least half Kenite. If she was the Cushite wife, then she would have been half-Cushite and half-Kenite. The problem is that Numbers 12 doesn't say if Zipporah was the Cushite woman, only that Moses's wife was a Cushite. So the Cushite wife of Moses could have been Zipporah, or Moses could have had a second wife, or Zipporah could have died and he remarried to a Cushite. Moreover, the Samaritan Pentateuch has "Kaashet" instead of "Cushite," and "kaashet" is translated as "beautiful." If this is the case, then the text in Numbers 12 says that Moses wife - possibly Zipporah - was a beautiful woman. The Septuagint translates "Cushite" into Ethiopian. At any rate, it's not unreasonable to have Zipporah played by a black actress, although it would probably be more accurate to have her played by an Ethiopian actress.

You know, the Bible says Moses's wife Zipporah was Cushite. A Cushite, in the Bible, is a synonym for Ethiopian. In other words, a Black person. His sister Miriam criticized him for marrying a Cushite.
I'm actually surprised that Netflix didn't make Moses Black and Zipporah White, considering their usual degree of accuracy.

The Hebrew bible says Moses married a woman from Cush (modern day, Ethiopia) and Mosesâs sister Miriam cried to God that her brother married a foreigner not a Hebrew. I donât know why the English version would be different but in the actual Hebrew she is from Cush so she actually should have darker skin than the actress but have a caucasian bone structure.

The King James. bible is a revised bootleg version of the Bible that has seen over 80 revisions starting with St. Augustine and the Council of Nicaea. the Ethiopian Orthodox bible is the closest to the original text. We all know how the colonizers downgraded, revised or straight up erased some 19 books from the original bible.You should just say you want your heaven all white.

I am generally opposed to Netflixâs blackification of history, but in this instance the source material does indicate Zipporah may have been black. The call her a cushite, which is known to refer to the dark skinned Africans.
