Themba (or Temba) Mafico was born in 1943 in then-Southern Rhodesia, and by dint of enormously hard work, connections, missionary support, and education both in Africa and in the US, has become known as a champion of education among African American seminary students and clergy in particular. Currently (2019) he is president and CEO of the Mafico Leadership Renewal Institute based in Atlanta, whose mission is to teach biblical principles relating to rest and self-care in an effort to combat debilitating diseases like hypertension and diabetes resulting from stress, burnout, anxiety, worry. and self-deprecation. This, like much of his later life, has been dedicated to "giving back" to others in gratitude for the many benefits he was given in his early life. He is also an author, a distinguished professor of Old Testament/Hebrew Bible—the bulk of his teaching and administrative career spent at the Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta— and has been a church minister for over fifty years. He earned a Th.M., M.A., and Ph.D. in Old Testament from Harvard University. His major publication is a book Yahweh's Emergence As "judge" Among the Gods: A Study of the Hebrew Root Špt. He has also made several contributions to the Anchor Bible Dictionary, Abingdon Bible Dictionary, The International Bible Commentary.
