The Dark Truth Behind St. Patrick’s Day: A Celebration Rooted in Chattel Slavery and Biblical Prophecy

St. Patrick’s Day is widely recognized as a celebration of Irish heritage, filled with parades, drinking, and festivities. However, beneath the surface lies a hidden history deeply connected to the chattel slavery of the so-called Black, Hispanic, and Native American people—the true Israelites according to the Bible. While mainstream narratives focus on the Irish experience of indentured servitude, the Bible reveals that the suffering of our people under the transatlantic slave trade was a direct fulfillment of prophecy.

This article will expose the truth about St. Patrick’s Day, its connection to the enslavement of the Israelites, and how it aligns with biblical prophecy.


The Myth of “Irish Slavery” vs. Biblical Chattel Slavery

Many attempt to equate the plight of the Irish in colonial America with that of the so-called Black man under chattel slavery. However, history and the Bible make a clear distinction:

  • Irish indentured servitude was temporary – The Irish signed contracts of 4–7 years and were eventually set free. The Israelites, however, were enslaved for life, and their children were born into bondage, fulfilling Deuteronomy 28:41:“Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.”
  • Irish indentured servants had legal protections – Unlike our forefathers, who were sold as property with no rights. Deuteronomy 28:68 prophesied:“And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships… and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.”
  • The Irish were eventually accepted into white society – They became plantation owners, merchants, and overseers. Meanwhile, the Israelites were permanently cast as an underclass, fulfilling Lamentations 5:5:“Our necks are under persecution: we labour, and have no rest.”

The Bible makes it clear: our forefathers were the ones truly cursed with generational slavery, not the Irish.


The Irish and Their Role in the Enslavement of the Israelites

Though many Irish were once oppressed under British rule, they later became active participants in the enslavement of God’s chosen people:

  • In the Caribbean, Irish settlers became slave owners and overseers, helping to maintain plantations filled with enslaved Israelites.
  • In the American colonies, Irish merchants profited from the transatlantic slave trade, furthering our captivity.
  • In the 19th century, Irish immigrants in the U.S. aligned with white supremacists, supporting slavery and segregation to secure their place in society.

This was prophesied in Psalms 83:1-4, which speaks of the nations conspiring to cut Israel off from their identity:

“They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.”

The Irish, like the other nations, played a role in keeping the Israelites in bondage and ensuring that we would forget our true heritage.


St. Patrick’s Day and Its Connection to Drunkenness and Paganism

One of the main traditions of St. Patrick’s Day is excessive drinking, which aligns perfectly with the wickedness the Bible warns against.

  • Isaiah 5:11 speaks against those who indulge in drinking from morning till night:“Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!”
  • Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 31:30 warns against drunkenness:“Drunkenness increaseth the rage of a fool till he offend: it diminisheth strength, and maketh wounds.”
  • 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 makes it clear that drunkards will not inherit the Kingdom of God:“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”

St. Patrick’s Day is nothing more than a pagan festival filled with sin, excess, and the worship of false gods. The Most High forbids us from taking part in these customs.


St. Patrick and the “Snakes” He Drove Out: A Hidden Allegory

One of the most famous legends about St. Patrick is that he “drove the snakes out of Ireland.” However, Ireland never had a native snake population. Scholars suggest this story is a metaphor for the eradication of the Druids, but there is a deeper spiritual meaning:

  • In the Bible, the serpent is often a symbol of wisdom (Matthew 10:16).
  • The indigenous people of Ireland, much like the Israelites, had their original spiritual practices erased by Christianity.
  • This mirrors how Europeans used Christianity to enslave and oppress our forefathers while distorting the Bible to justify their actions.

St. Patrick’s so-called “cleansing” of Ireland foreshadowed how white supremacy would later use religion to justify the enslavement of the true Israelites.


Montserrat’s St. Patrick’s Day Rebellion: The True Israelite Connection

One of the strongest links between St. Patrick’s Day and our people is found in Montserrat, a Caribbean island where both Irish settlers and enslaved Israelites lived. On March 17, 1768, while Irish plantation owners were celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, enslaved Israelites plotted a rebellion. However, their plans were betrayed, and the uprising was crushed.

Today, Montserrat still celebrates St. Patrick’s Day, but for the Israelites, it is not a day of joy—it is a reminder of their oppression and resistance. This aligns with Ecclesiastes 7:7:

“Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad; and a gift destroyeth the heart.”

The truth is, St. Patrick’s Day is more connected to the suffering of the Israelites than to Irish freedom.


We Israelites Must Separate from These Pagan Celebrations

St. Patrick’s Day is not an innocent celebration of Irish heritage. It is a day filled with drunkenness, pagan traditions, and a hidden history of enslaving the Most High’s chosen people.

The Bible commands the Israelites to separate from the ways of the heathen:

  • Jeremiah 10:2“Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen.”
  • 2 Corinthians 6:17“Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord.”

As the true Israelites, we must reject St. Patrick’s Day and all the pagan customs of our oppressors. It is time to return to the laws, statutes, and commandments of the Most High and reclaim our heritage as the chosen people of Israel.

“Come out of her, my people” (Revelation 18:4).
