6.) Rastafarian Formation,Pilgrimage, and Image.

The Lion of Judah represents Hailee Selassie.The Lion is often shown with Selassie and/or the Ethiopian Flag (green, red and yellow or gold, and sometimes black). I watched this YouTube video a while back and this Rastafarian Man referred to Selassie as “King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Conquering of the Tribe of Judah, Selassie”. This represents the powerful religious figure that he is for the Rastafarian's. Selassie has no biblical recognition, yet the Rastafarian's believe that he does.
Ive included a picture of Emperor Halie Selassie and a lion.
