How to make a defined table through HTML

I copied-and-pasted a table from Microsoft Word into a "Text box" in my Enfold theme. The outer edges of the table are faint grey; I want them to be sharp black, so they clearly outline the fact that it is a table.

This will separate the three items within the table and make it look much better.

How do make the edges of a table a specific color (black)? What HTML do I use?

Please use this website for reference: scmjf.org The item i refer to is below "muslim-jewish ties, through"

Thank you very much.

Styling is done with CSS. So you can do:

<style type="text/css">
table {
   border: solid thin #000000;
}
</style>

or put it in your stylesheet
