The African-American Jubilee Edition Bible, brainchild of some the nation’s most respected Black clergymen, is not—as the authors put it-- your typical King James Bible. “Our first task,” says the preface, “is to use biblical evidence, supportive academic references and common sense to show that the ancestral home of man was in Africa, the land associated with the beginnings of Eden I in the Bible.” Rev. Vigil Wood, credited with laying the foundation for the project, explains the concept of Jubilee and the purpose of this new biblical edition.
