The process of cultural development in Brazil is the result of its historical growth and maturation in relation to the peoples who contributed in some way to its formation. This development has presented, notoriously, the importance of having a dialogue between three different cultures that helped this historical process: the native, the white and the black. Among these three cultures, particularly within the ethnicities of the African diaspora, are the Yoruba culture people, originally from Benin, southeastern Nigeria, who also came to Brazil to meet the needs of the Colony and that since slavery contributed to Brazil in its transformation process to become an independent country. Then, analyze the ritual of the blood offering (ẹbọ ẹ̀jẹ̀) in the light of Yoruba culture to understand aspects of the relationship of the human species to the sacred and at the same time make comparisons of the blood offering (ẹbọ ẹ̀jẹ̀) in the Yoruba culture with the Mythical-religious presence of blood rituals in the Old Testament and thus contemplating religious intertwining of Yoruba culture with the New Testament in accordance with the current political return of the triad: Man, Religion and Nature in the psychosocial context of Brazil, perhaps the World.
