Description

Queen Candace’s story can be
found in the “5th” book of the New Testament Bible

(Acts 8:26-39).

 

We can determine the approximate time of “[Queen Candace’s rule]” by the Apostle
Philip’s encounter with her “[Treasurer].

 

“[Candace]” is mentioned in Scripture as being
the “[Queen of Ethiopia], (Acts 8:27).”

 

Not long after the death of Christ, one of Jesus’ disciples, “[Philip],”was commissioned of the “[Holy Spirit]” to share the “[Gospel of
Jesus Christ]” with one of (Queen of Ethiopia Candace’s) “[Eunuch/Treasurers].” 

 

The encounter occurred when the eunuch (castrated male) was returning
home after going to “[Jerusalem]” to meet the “[Queen]” there
– to “[worship].”

 

By this, we know that the “[Queen Candace]” and her “[Treasurer]”
were “[Black Hebrew Jews]” because they were “[Ethiopian Jews]!”
and only “[Jews]” worshiped in “[Jerusalem].”

 

When Philip approached him, the Treasurer was reading in the “[Book
of Isaiah].”  When Philip asked the eunuch
if he knew what that particular Scripture meant, the Treasurer confessed
that he did not – he was reading Isaiah’s prophecy of the coming “[Messiah].”

 

After Philip told the Treasurer all the things that had happened
concerning “[Jesus Christ],” explaining the prophecy he was
reading had been fulfilled – then the Treasurer “[Believed],” and
was “[Baptized]!”  (Acts 8).
