Brit Am Israel

[David Ben-Ariel]

I'm convinced about our Hebrew roots, the Israelite origins of the West, and much of what I believe (as taught by Herbert W. Armstrong) has been confirmed by Brit Am Israel:


Brit-Am is an organization centered in Jerusalem capital of Israel and comprised of Jews and non-Jews.

Brit-Am traces the Lost Ten Tribes to Western Nations. The evidence that Brit-Am relies upon is Biblical in the light of Rabbinical Commentary supplemented by secular studies.

Brit-Am avoids the discussion of religious differences between Judah (the present-day Jews) and the Lost Ten Tribes represented by "Joseph".

Unfortunately for that theory, DNA evidence trumps the bible, and that says that we came from Africa.

You going to present your evidence or are you here purely to SPAM?

One should be careful when trying to reinvent a history, I remember it didnt quite work out for some Germans wandering around the Himalayas. Cuddles is perfectly correct, DNA can be used to trace gene migration over continents.

It's not a theory, but the idea that we all came from Africa is a theory. Get it right. Nothing trumps the Bible, as the Bible consists of divine revelation, superior insight and understanding.

The bible is the word of god because the bible says so.

Circular reasoning at it's finest folks!

You do realise that the bible is only a theory don't you?

Straegies of Attrition

[David Ben-Ariel]

Against the odds, the Anglo-Saxons and white peoples of Northwestern Europe have fulfilled these remarkable prophecies, proof of divine revelation, extraterrestrial intellgence:

"DID YOU KNOW THAT....."

According to the Bible ten out of the twelve tribes of Israel split away (1-Kings 12:19), formed their own kingdom of "Israel" (1-Kings 12:20) and were exiled by the Assyrians (2-Kings 17:18). They forget their identity (Hosea 1:9 7:8 Isaiah 49:21) and became the Lost Ten Tribes. In the future they will re-unite with the Jews (Ezekiel 37, Isaiah 11:13 Jeremiah 3:18) of "Judah", but until then they have a role of their own to fulfill. They were destined to be situated at the continental extremities of the earth such as North America, the British Isles, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa (Deuteronomy 33:13 Isaiah 24:16 26:15 41:8-9 49:6), to be the richest (Genesis 27:28 49:25 Deuteronomy 33:13-16 Hosea 2:8), and most powerful (Numbers 24:8-7 Micah 5:7-9) nations on earth and to control major international strategic bases (Genesis 22:16-17 24:60). All of these points together with numerous others show that descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes can only be found amongst Western Nations especially the English-speaking ones. The correctness of our interpretation of the relevant verses, and your destiny, may depend upon this information. You need to know!

You do realize that "the Bible is only a theory" is a theory, don't you? Whether or not you're convinced of its divine revelation, supernatural inspiration as proven by fulfilled prophecies that transcend mortal men's capabilities to foretell or bring to pass, I'm convinced of it because of prophecies, answered prayers, and God-given faith. If you fail to believe this, that's your prerogative, but when only God will be able to save mankind soon from utter destruction, perhaps seeing will be believing (even though the Bible says the nations will oppose the return of the King and their armies will fight against Him - perhaps fearing it's an "invasion" from Outer Space rather than divine intervention to SAVE MANKIND).

[bobdezon]

I originally thought you posts were sort of a rabbinical essay into the possible decendants or the 12 tribes of judea, but I can plainly see you are only another conspiracy theorist, with little to no understanding of the real world. Consequently I feel it is my duty to declare you batshit insane, but if you have anything that is based on fact then Id be happy to discuss it with you.

Oh come on, this is cobblers (these are cobblers?). The Deuteronomy reference doesn't mention anything relevant at all, and the only geographical locations mentioned in the others are "the uttermost part of the earth", "all the ends of the earth", "the ends of the earth", and "the end of the earth". Who would have known what any of those meant at the time of writing? I didn't see The Netherlands or New Zealand mentioned once.

Could you be reading slightly more detail into this than is actually there?

M.???

So tell me, do you stone adulterers to death? How about slaying unbelievers? Have you never trimmed the corners of your beard? Are all your garments white and of single material only (no mixed fabrics)?

If not, then it looks like you've broken some of god's rules and are as accursed as the rest of us.

A nutter? A troll? Both?

The idea that our ancestors came out of Africa at some stage of our evolution is a well established fact. The jury is still out on the details but the evidence of our Africa origins is incontrovertible.

In contrast the Ten Lost Tribes idea has little going for it at all.

Given that there's no evidence outside the bible for any part of the Jewish origin stories, even the starting point of this hypothesis is unreliable. And if the starting point is unreliable, what is the point of extending those ideas with what can only be described as the wildest of speculation? There's no evidence for any of it.
