Uddrag
Jesus is an important figure in Rastafari. However, practitioners reject the traditional Christian view of Jesus, particularly the description of him as a white European

believing that this is a perversion of the truth. They believe that Jesus was a black African, and that the white Jesus was a false god.

Jamaican Rastas are descendants of African slaves who were converted to Christianity in Jamaica by missionaries using the text of the King James Version of the Bible.
