- Moses
- Prophet Mohammed
- Jesus
- Haile Selassie I
Of course, there have been many other prophets and messengers before us, but the ones mentioned are divinely inspired in the holy books, such as the Torah, and Quran, and in the Bible, both Old & New Testimate, with the exception of Haile Selassie, the last Emporer/King of the line of Judah, (King Solomon) who was an important figure, mentioned in these holy scriptures. Because Hailie Selassie was the last reigning monarch of that lineage, from all the way from Judah, he is included in this list. Otherwise referred to as King Of Kings, Lord Of Lords. See Wiki Link A representative of the Solomonic dynasty and the 225th successor to King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. Sovereign Of Ethiopia, Africa.
The divine nature of Haile Selassie is due to the fact of his lineage, that as well as being related to King Solomon, who is a relative of King David, he was also related to Jesus Christ. So he was thought of as a divinity or a part of God, a living God on the earth, son of God. Or part of the holy trinity. He was not like other men. And this could easily be seen in photographs & videos, not only in the presence of men but in the lions which bow to him. It is evident that he was not just a sovereign or king, but a truly Holy figure.
The Rastafari Movement – The Line Of Judah The Conquering Lion
The Holy Bible is the most important book in Rastafari. This special edition Bible includes the Old and New Testament with corrections made to the King James Version. The books of Enoch, Jubilees, and the Kebra Nagast are also included, all these are sacred books in the Ethiopian Biblical Canon.
Rastafarians pray to Jah, and or Haile Selassie I, before smoking the sacred herbs. These herbs were also used in prayer by King Solomon. But in a different way, where the sacred herbs are burned in his temple and the tabernacle.
Therefore Rastafarians are religious, they believe in Jah and follow the prophets & messengers of the line of Judah, including Jesus. And this includes His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I. Emperor of Etheopia.

Moses & The 10 Commandments – Exodus – The Line Of Levi
So most of us are of course familiar with The Ten Commandments, and how they came to be given to us, from God, God revealed himself to Moses in Sinai. Moses was blinded by the sight of God, and his hair turned white.

- “Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.”
- “Honour thy father and thy mother.”
- “Thou Shall Not Kill.”
- “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”
- “Thou shalt not steal.”
- “Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbour.”
- “Thou shalt not covet.”
Moses was also written about in Exodus, concerning the exodus of slaves, and the parting of the Red Sea. And if you are old enough, you may have also watched the film, and people were worshipping a statue of a bull, in a state of debauchery,
