WIKIPEDIA: According to the Bible, Galilee was named by the Israelites and was the tribal region of Naphthali and Dan, at times overlapping the Tribe of Asher's land.

Bnei Bilhah are of an ancient origin. In the Hebrew migratory tradition begun more than two millennia ago, an Israeli remnant migrated into Africa with many Danites from Northeast Africa migrating back to their tribal allocations in Israel, such as Tel Aviv, besides emerging Naphtalite communities throughout Mainland Africa, including Levitical Islanders from Haiti, Jamaica, Madagascar, Papua New Guinea, and Australia, as well as a Mixed Multitude comprising the African Diaspora from the United States of America settling Southwest of the Sea of Galilee.

Sam Roberts: I couldn’t tell you very much about his politics and that’s the way it should be.
George Bundy Smith: I think that judges have to do the job that they have been selected and appointed to do, and can’t fear the criticism of anyone.
Sam Roberts: While Judge Smith was considered a liberal lion, he also repeatedly demonstrated his independence as a jurist.

Wil Gafney: Mother Bilhah, womb-slave of Israel, we call your name. Ashé!

Wil Gafney: No comfort is offered to Bilhah in the text. Was she supported by other slave women, by Zilpah who shared her lot in life?
Wil Gafney: when I pray the Amidah, I add Hagar, Bilhah and Zilpah
Wil Gafney: Given the absence of Lavan’s wife from the narrative it is entirely possible that Lavan used Bilhah sexually
Wil Gafney: Bilhah’s body is used again in Gen 35:22. Re’uven ben Leah, Ya‘aqov’s firstborn son, rapes Bilhah. That Bilhah does not consent is indicated by the Hebrew, vayishcav et-bilhah, "he lay Bilhah." There is no "with" indicating consent.
Wil Gafney: Bilhah’s sexual subordination to Rachel (with or without the possibility that Lavan used her sexually previously) evokes for me the sexual abuse of enslaved Africans in the United States, Caribbean and other places.
Aaron Finestone: It could be argued that Bilhah and Zilpah were omitted as Imahot because of race and class.
betsy teutsch: Some of the rejection of Bilhah and Zilpah is due to class and race issues.
Judy Bolton-Fasman: Bilhah and Zilpah understand women who feel marginalized.

as cited in Lenhoff & Weaver, 2007, p. 303: those who came from the Land of Cush are without doubt of the tribe of Dan…

A post shared by Shades of Injera (@shadesofinjera) on
Wikipedia: The Cushitic-speaking peoples today comprise the Agaw [an ethnic group inhabiting Ethiopia and neighboring Eritrea], Oromo [an ethnic group inhabiting Ethiopia, who are also found in northern Kenya and Somalia], Somali, Afar [They primarily live in the Afar Region of Ethiopia and in northern Djibouti, although some also inhabit the southern point of Eritrea.], and several other tribes, and were considered offspring of Cush in Masudi’s Meadows of Gold from 947 AD. The Beja people [an ethnic group inhabiting Sudan, as well as parts of Eritrea, Egypt, and the Eastern Desert], who also speak a Cushitic language, have specific genealogical traditions of descent from Cush.

as defined by the Intergovernmental Authority on Development [IGAD]: The Greater Horn of Africa comprises eight countries [Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Uganda].
