December 01, 2011 journal, the origin of the 10 lost tribes of the Israelites by Rabbi Yair Davidiy from Jerusalem. I agree in theory with his historical reporting even though I may take some issue with some aspects of his assumptions. Britain and America are from the 10 lost tribes of Israel, we are not gentiles, yet we're not considered to be Jewish because the Jewish name is a relatively new term for the genuine Hebrew people. I will point out my objections as I see them roughly in the article. This source seems to put all the Jewish people including those converts to Judaism of the seventh century together as one people. There are actually three types of Jewish people basically, the Torah, Khazars & Edomites. The Russian Communist Khazars are the power in the Rothschild Bank system & NYC. Read carefully because this is important information, we are fortunate to have it available. Yair is a devout Torah man, he does not believe in Christ and is no friend of Christianity. The Orthodox Jewish people are generally Torah, the first five Books of Moses in the Old Testament. The Edomites are or were the descendants of Esau Jacob Israel's brother who are an offense to God. The real power today operating under the name of Jewish Zionism are the Russian Communist Khazars from southern Russia who gained control of Russia under Lenin and killed 66 million Christian people beginning in 1917 until they may have been eventually phased out after destroying Russia in the world's most awful Holocaust. Yair now claims the Khazar people are natural Jewish but it is not true, they are converts to Judaism since 742ad and they control the world's financial banking fiasco. They are the Rothschild banking empire dynasty that own and operate the Federal Reserve Bank. The Khazar Russian people never lived in Palestine and have no right to it whatsoever. Modern Israeli is totally founded and directed by the Russian Khazar Lenin Communist. http://www.britam.org/ "The Hebrew Nations: An Over-view of Brit-Am Beliefs. http://tentribes.net/HebrewOverview.html .Ten out of the 12 Tribes of Israel were exiled and lost their identity. Their descendants are now to be found amongst Western Peoples. They are the Lost Ten Tribes. This is proven from the Bible, Talmud, and Rabbinical Sources as well as from Secular Studies in Ancient History, Archaeology, Mythology, Linguistics, and related fields. In the notes below we give an outline of the conclusions and beliefs of Brit-Am. The Hebrew Nations: An Overview of Brit-Am Beliefs. The Understandings. Descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes are now to be found amongst Western Peoples. n Proofs are derived from Scripture, Rabbinical writings, history, mythology, linguistics,and every other source that may be relevant. We do not say that all Western peoples are descended from Israelites. A portion of them are. These comprise the main body of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel.They strongly influenced the national charact-eristics of nations in the west. In some cases they may well comprise a majority of people in the countries of their dwelling. Countries amongst which the Ten Tribes are to be found include: Switzerland, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Ireland, UK, Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand, the whites of South Africa. Members of the Ten Tribes were also to be found in other nations especially those of Europe. Only in the above listed nations however were the Ten Tribes predominant for long periods of time. The listed nations may be considered in many respects to be countr-ies of Israel. We employ Ephraimite Criteria to determine what nations are Israelite ones. In Germany and other parts of Continental Europe there were once many from the Ten Tribes but most of them left, separated themselves out, and emigrated to North America and elsewhere. The Jews are Judah. Amongst Judah there were representative minorities of all the other Tribes. In addition amongst the Ten Tribes were to be found many from Judah. (Not so) Elements from Edom settled in Europe especially Germany where they penetrated the ruling elites. (Maybe) Points that may not be so important in their own right but which receive a lot of attention include Israelite Physical Types and the Khazars. (Khazars are not akin) The physical types of the ancient Israelites included both those of West Europe appearance as well as the darker Mediterranean kinds. This is confirmed by Biblical and Rabbinical sources as well as Egyptian illustrations and Israelite ivory carvings. See: THE PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY OF THE HEBREW PEOPLES The Hebrew Pictures. The Khazars were also from the Ten Tribes & re-attached themselves to Judah. (Not true, the must've gotten to him with their money bag). In studying the Ten Tribes we need to distinguish: (1) between Judah (i.e. the Jews) and the Ten Tribes. (2) Between Joseph and the other Tribes. (3) Within Joseph between Ephraim and Manasseh. From another point of view a distinction is made between Joseph and the others. The non-Joseph nations include Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Eire, and the State of Israel. They number ca. 130 million.Britain and her offshoots comprise the descendants of Ephraim. Britain and British offshoots (Canada, Australia, South African Whites, New Zealand, etc) have a population of ca. 130, 000,000. The USA contains elements from all the Tribes. Joseph is predominant. Numerically there may be more of Ephraim than Manasseh in the USA BUT-Manasseh predominates in other ways. The USA has ca. 313 million but many are non-Israelites. The non-Israelite component in the USA may now be an overwhelming majority of the total. Roughly speaking we may assume that the USA (Joseph) has about as many Israelites as the other Israelite nations put together. Amongst the other nations Ephraim (Britain and her offshoots) have about half which is a quarter of the total. The Bequeathment of the Blessings. Abraham-The Promised Blessings began with Abraham. He was the first Patriarch and to him was it promised to become, "A great nation, and in you will all the families of the earth be blessed" (Genesis 12:2-3). "And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly" (Genesis 17:2). "I will make nations of thee and kings shall come out of thee; And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee" (Genesis 17:6-7). The blessings were concomitant with a Divine Purpose. There was a certain reason for them. Of Abraham it was said, "Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him. For I know him that he will command his children and his house after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him" (Genesis 18:18-19).Isaac-Abraham begat Ishmael and Isaac. Isaac received the covenant promise and to him devolved the promised blessings: "My covenant will I establish with Isaac" (Genesis 17:21); "I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him" (Genesis 17:19). God informed Abraham, "In Isaac shall thy seed be called" (Genesis 21:21). Esau and Jacob-Isaac begat the twins Esau and Jacob. Jacob received the Blessings promised to Abraham and to Isaac. Isaac blessed Jacob, "God Almighty bless thee, and make thee fruitful and multiply thee, that thou mayest be a multitude of people; And give thee the blessing of ABRAHAM, to thee and to thy seed with thee" (Genesis 28:2-3). Jacob was given the additional name ISRAEL, "Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, But ISRAEL; for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men and hast prevailed" (Genesis 32:8). "Thy name is Jacob: thy name shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name: and He called his name ISRAEL" (Genesis 35:10). Jacob (Israel) had Twelve Sons, "Now the sons of Jacob were twelve" (Genesis 36:22). The Twelve Sons of Israel-The Twelve Sons of Israel were Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulon, Joseph, Benjamin, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher. They were the forefathers of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. All the sons of Israel received a Blessing from their father, "Everyone according to his blessing he blessed them" (Genesis 49:28). Joseph and the Birthright The Birthright was given to Joseph. "Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him (comes) the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's" (1-Chronicles 5:1-2). Jacob blessed Joseph, "The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of JOSEPH, and on the crown of him that was separated from his brethren" (Genesis 49:6). Joseph has an ADDITIONAL TASK AND MERIT. "The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors..." (Genesis 49:6). Joseph had received an additional blessing and task beyond that of the other Tribes and BEYOND that promised to Abraham, Isaac, and the rest of the Tribes. Ephraim and Manasseh-Joseph had two sons, Ephraim and Menasseh. Both Ephraim and Menasseh received the status of full Tribes in their own right. Jacob said: # #THY TWO SONS, EPHRAIM AND MANASSEH, ARE MINE; AS REUBEN AND SIMEON, THEY SHALL BE MINE ## (Genesis 48:5). "And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh" (Genesis 48:20). The prevalence of Ephraim is repeated in Jeremiah (31:9), "I am a father to Israel, and EPHRAIM is my firstborn". Nevertheless, towards the End Times, Manasseh would be the greater party though it would acheive its greatness after that of Ephraim. See: Ephraim Comes First! Malbim on Joseph (Genesis chs 48 and 49). We identify Britain and its offshoots with Ephraim. The USA encompasses elements from all the Tribes but especially that of Joseph. Descendants of Ephraim in the USA may be numerically greater than those of Manasseh. Nevertheless the USA is the nation through which Manasseh has made its Tribal imprint in the world. See: Is the USA Ephraim or Manasseh? Why Did Things Happen This Way? The Division of the Tribes was from God: FOR THIS THING IS FROM ME (1-Kings 12:24). Rabbinical Thinkers (such as Rabbi Isaac Kook) said that Joseph and the Ten Tribes and others became assimilated amongst the Gentiles in order to elevate the heathen from inside. The Lost Israelites will constantly experience a subconscious drive to re-assert their Israelite identity and to draw closer. to the Almighty. In the process the Lost Ten Tribes will elevate not only themselves but also the non-Israelites they dwell amongst and alongside of. On the other hand Judah (the Jews) had the task of developing the Law and their inner religious world. (Now then I am beginning to see better his purpose to tie us in) The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel were to become "a light to the nations" (Isaiah 42:6 49:6): The Tribes of Jacob will have an enlightening influence over the Gentiles. They shall be a "Brit-Am" or covenant of peoples. They will be located at the ends of the earth meaning the geographical extremities of the Continental masses. They will have colonized relatively undeveloped lands and be found in the north and west (from the Land of Israel) and also in the Land of Sinim meaning Australia and New Zealand (Isaiah 49:5-12). Abraham was promised to become a great and mighty nation in whom all nations of the earth would be blessed. The descendants of Abraham would establish justice and judgment in the earth (Genesis ch.18). These predictions were unconditional and had to be fulfilled (Genesis 22:16). The Lost Tribes would rule over other peoples (Genesis 27:29 48:19). They would be a world power (Numbers 24:7-9 Micah ch.5:7-9); They would rule the waves (Numbers 23:7). They would control all major strategic areas (Genesis 22:17, 24:60). They were to become the richest and mightiest entities on earth (Genesis 49:25 Numbers 23:8-9). Aspects of these blessings were to be found in all of the Tribes but especially in those of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh. See: The Purpose of Exile and Loss of Identity-Scripture. It was prophesied that the Ten Tribes would be in mainly in the west. They would be in the west and north. They would be in the coastlands and the Isles of the Sea, and at the edges of the Continental Masses. They would be sea-goers. They would also be in the south and in the Land of Sinim which we identify with Australia and New Zealand. Their major center would be in the North in a Thigh or Peninsula such as North America is. They would be the police-man of the globe; the most powerful nation with bases in Many Oceans. They would fulfill more than a 100 specific conditions referring to the Ten Tribes. They would be the only ethnic groups that in all history met all of the said conditions. For more details, thespecific verses and links to a discussion about them see: List of 122 (was 110) Brit-Am Biblical Proofs Tribal Identifications.-Finland pertains to Issachar. Characteristics of Issachar are those of Finland. Switzerland also to Issachar. "Keeper of the times" (1-Chronicles 12:32). Sweden to Gad: Tribes that settled in Sweden were named after Gad and clans of Gad. Norway to Naphtali. The Naphtalite Huns were named after Naphtali. Tradition said they came from Naphtali and Dan. From Scythia the Naphtalite Huns moved to Norway and Denmark. Denmark to Dan. The name Denmark (Danmark in Danish) means "Border of Dan" and the Danes have a tradition that they descend from Dan. Netherlands to Zebulon. The Sabulingoi settled in the North Netherlands. Sabulingoi in Hebrew means "People [goi] of Zebulon". Genesis 49:13 in the Hebrew says that Zebulon will dwell on the shores of the sea. The Dutch with their dykes and dams and two-thirds of the country literally on the sea-shores fulfill this. The symbol of Zebulon was a ship which was also the official symbol of the Dutch republic and traditionally of Holland in general. Belgium to Benjamin. The Belgae came from Bela(g)h of Benjamin (Numbers 26:38). France to Reuben. Names of groups that settled in France are those of Reuben and clans of Reuben. The French had the characteristics of Reuben. The Tribe of Asher settled in great numbers in Scotland and Ireland. Asher was also found in Scandinavia where it is referred to as the ancestral heroes known as As (singular) and in plural Aseir. Ireland and Wales to Simeon and Dan (as well as to Joseph). Both Simuen and Dan are referred to as ancestors in Irish Mythology. Manasseh was also found in Scotland and Ireland and so was Ephraim and Judah. England (along with Canada, Australia, New Zealand) to Ephraim. The word England comes from Angle. In both Hebrew and ancient Germanic the term Angle could be rendered or pronounced as Aegel. Aegel in Hebrew means a young bull. Aegel in Biblical hebrew could also be pronounced like Angle. Ephraim was referred to as an Aegel or Angel i.e. young bull (Jeremiah 31:17). Ephraim was a tribe based on aristocracy as England still is. USA to Manasseh. The early settlers of the USA came from Britain but we have shown how they came from specific areas and social groupings where Manasseh had been dominant. Histroically, the name America is derived from the term "Ha-Macheri" (Numbers 26:29) meaning descendants of Machir the first-born son of Manasseh. A Repetition of Patterns: The Relative Tribal Positioning to each other in the Land of Israel is repeated in their present geographical locations. Conclusion. The Lost Ten Tribes are today amongst Western Peoples. Half of them appear to be in the USA. A quarter are amongst the British and offshoots of Britain. Another quarter are to be found in Western European nations. See: Statistics: Israelite-Dominated Nations and World Population. The Ten Tribes are destined to be made aware of their identity and to re-unite with Judah (Ezekiel 37). Judah is the Jews. More than 90% of the Jews are either in the State of Israel or amongst Israelite nations. Statistics: World Jewish Populations and the Ten Tribes. The return of the Jews to their Faith and to the Land of Israel in Rabbinical Commentaries is often linked with the Return of the Ten Lost Tribes. The preconditions are falling into place. The Descendants of the Ten Tribes of Israel have an obligation to learn the Bible and understand who they are and what is required of them. The knowledge gained through Brit-Am may be of help along the way. Concerning the Israelite Ancestry of Gentiles as individuals (as distinct from groups in general) a lack of certainty exists. This is how Divine Providence wanted things to be at the present. We all need to do as well as we can with what we have and with what we can come to know. http://by162w.bay162.mail.live.com/default.aspx?wa=wsignin1.0#n=1474997447&fid=1&fav=1&mid=a17f44f8-aa2f-11e1-9e35-00215ad80d1c&fv=1
