It was a surprise to discover that the Berbers were mentioned so extensively in the Bible. In all, more than twenty texts speak of Berbers, both in the Old Testament and in the New.
In the Bible, several Berbers were mentioned, some with their origins. This is the case of Simon of Cyrene, who carried the cross of Jesus, and Lucius of Cyrene who was the first bishop of Antioch, where Saint Paul was formed by Barnabas, of Chachnaq (Sheshonq) who was Pharaoh of Egypt, although Berber and which had plundered the palace and the temple of Solomon in Jerusalem.
