"that today the Hebrew influence can be proofed in most parts of Africa, even the Ashanti etc..."
Is this really the case? Or is it the other way around - i.e. -> The inner African and Khemetic influence on Judaism? It seems to me that you are saying that the identity of rituals, beliefs, etc. with Judaism is because of the Judaic INFLUENCE on the inner Africans such as the Ashanti. What makes you so sure that it is not the original ritual, ideas, etc. that was developed in inner Africa 1st thousands and thousands of years earlier that found its way into Judaism?
And as a matter of fact RASTA is spoken of in the Book of Coming Forth By Day - so again this is a text that predates the bible that is a more ancient root of Rasta. If one goes deep - the bible loses some of its originality in relation to the IMO more ANCIENT trod of Rasta.
