Reverend Richard A. Morrisey (born 1858) was an African-American biblical scholar, a Doctor of Divinity, and the pastor of a number of churches in the South and in Pennsylvania. In 1915, he published Bible History of the Negro, with the hope of inspiring a greater desire to read the Bible which he describes as giving "the Negro a place among the foremost races of the world, in wealth, in education, in honor and in religion, a history to which every member of the race may point with great pride and profound gratitude to Almighty God today”.

The book brings together all the references to black people in the Bible, covering, among others: Ham, son of Noah, Batsheba, Simon the Cyrenian, Nimrod, Melchizesek, Hagar, Ishmael, Rahab, and Candace, queen of Ethiopia.
