Recall that Igbodefender.com has been emphasizing in various articles over the years that the first Igbos have a Judeo-Nubian (Egyptian) origin.

And today, we will look at those ancient connections with the Jews and Nubian Egyptians from the prism of substitutional atonement, a religious practice known to both cultures.


The Igbo Jewish Connection

Robert Greene wrote in the 48 Laws Of Power that:

"On the Day of Atonement, the [Jewish] high priest brings the goat into the
temple, places his hands on its
head, and confesses the people’s sins, transferring guilt to
the guiltless beast, which is
then led to the wilderness and
abandoned, the people’s sins
and blame vanishing with him."

Meanwhile, in Igbo Land, the ritual cleansing for Amadioha, a traditional Igbo deity consists of transferring the curse to a live goat that is let loose outside of the walls of the community. Rams are also used.

The priestly clan of Amadioha are known as Umuamadi (children of Amadioha).



Note that: the Obatalas of Ife with their Ifa are also a priestly clan in the tradition of the Nri priests and their Afa.

The Jews also have the priestly clan of Aaron. Aaron was the first High Priest of the Israelites. Knowledge of Aaron has been transmitted to this generation from the Bible, the Quran and a few other books.



Aaron incurred the wrath of Moses when he yielded to pressure and molded a golden calf for the people.

Nubian Egyptian Similarities

Research shows that rams are also used in the Amadioha ritual cleansing. Obi Nwakanma writes that “two studies published by the English colonial anthropologist, M.D.W. Jeffreys, “The Winged Solar Disk, or the Ibo Itchi Scarification Marks” (1951), and “A Triad of gods in Africa,” (1972) explore and affirm these links, and the possible Egyptian origin of the Igbo, and their worship of the Sun god.

“The Igbo still call their first-born sons, “Opa- RA” (priest of the Sun-God, RA). MDW Jeffreys identifies in the symbols of the “Ichi” scarifications carved into the forehead and cheeks of the Igbo titled aristocracy, Ndi Nze, the “sun, moon and the wings and tail of the hawk” and the ram-headed symbol of the “Ikenga,” as associated with ancient Egypt, particularly the winged solar disk symbol of Pharaoh Usertsen III.

It's actually China. Can't you see the similarity between the meaning of chi in igbo and it's corresponding meaning in Chinese. In both languages it means life force or spirit. This proves igbos migrated from China.

No. It strongly suggests Igbos had contacts with the ancient Chinese. And they did.

Igbos are an ancient civilization.

Eri did not leave egypt with the israelites, so you wont know about the laws and the atonement.
This issue shouldnt be a fiction.

In the old days it is normal to see a SLAVE or group of SLAVES that have escaped from their masters still practicing their masters religion.

Over the years when the Israelites and Egyptians and other sourounding nation fought wars some slaves managed to escape and till today they still show characteristics of their days as slave even after all these years it is so difficult to let go of the shackles of their masters.

It is what you see in some traditions and culture of some Nigerians with slave mentality.

Whatever. Next.

Igbos have been great travellers from time immemorial. They are also great foreign investors. They need government support at all levels to bring in more forex and create more jobs.
