Was Tea Tephi really Tamar daughter of King David?

Hi all,
So you don't think Tea Tephi could be the Tamar raped by her brother, both of them being the children of King David?
That is what Herbert Armstrong published, possibly in The U.S. and British Commonwealth in Prophecy, but at the time they did not cite their references in publications. It also could have been in a separate Plain Truth article. They related the geographic spot Ariel of Ireland to Ariel in the Psalms.
It might make sense to marry off a slightly damaged princess/healer/prophetess to a prince who lived far away.

2. Steve Mathe: Where does Divine providence Figure in the History of Brit-Am?
Brit-Am Wrote:
During his Rabbinical Studies Yair came across sources indicating that there may be something to the belief that the Lost Ten Tribes were to be found amongst Western Peoples. Gradually an overwhelming urge developed to resolve the issue once and for all.================================================
After undertaking an intensive research program on the subject Yair was convinced that the concept was indeed true one and answered Biblical questions.
There followed many years of research, discussion, and learning on the subject. This resulted in the manuscripts for several books as well as a large quantity of research notes part of which was destined to also be published. With the help of learned Orthodox Jews and Rabbis "The Tribes" was published in 1993.
This work was followed over the years by at least nine other books, magazines, radio interviews and broadcasts, an active e-mail discussion list and a web-site that receives from 1200 to 1500 visits per day.
Brit-Am believes that Descendants of the Lost Ten Tribes are today found amongst Western Nations according to the Bible and Rabbinical Commentary supplemented by historical and related studies. It is in these countries that Israelite Tribes realized their Destined Ancestral Expression.
The USA especially (along with related nations) has an obligation as Israelite Nations to fulfill their destiny. The USA , UK, and their kinfolk are obligated by the Bible to be great nations, uplift humanity, internalize Biblical Consciousness, maintain Biblical values, and look after their own citizens. They should also support the Jews and the State of Israel.
Brit-Am has three main aims:
Research -finding where the Lost Ten Tribes went to.
Recognition -Bringing the Results of our Research to Public attention.
Reconciliation - Working towards the eventual re-unification of Joseph and Judah.

From Steve Mathe:
Perhaps you may want to add a few sentences re how Hashem's guidance, inspiration and revelation figured in all this for you and others that you have perceived on this path.

Brit-Am Reply:
This question touches on matters some of which are of a private nature.
Being born as I was, with the experiences I underwent, the gifts, impairments, weaknesses, and strengths I acquired or was born with, together with the strong intellectual curiosity in certain directions and other factors all came to fruition in the creation of Brit-Am.
Since then we were blessed by others who saw fit to help us just when we needed it.
This help includes financial assistance but it also extends to many other fields such as computer maintenance networking etc.
In our research work we saw the Hand of Divine Providence on numerous occasions.
The same applies to every other aspect of Brit-Am.
Rabbi Mordecai Machles of Jerusalem is a friend of ours.
Rabbi Machless emphasizes the existence of Divine Providence in the life of everybody. We only have to open our eyes to it. Sometimes (or rather more often than not) we take it for granted.
Rabbi Machles advocates that everybody keep a little notebook by themselves and write in it every day those occasions on which Divine Providence became most noticeable.
Apart from that, there is indeed something specifically chosen about Brit-Am to which our subscribers may well testify as well as us.
Brit-Am in our opinion has a special merit to it.
This is not always as self-evident (event to us) as it perhaps should be.
Nevertheless, we have received insights and research breakthroughs through Divine Providence and have been able to spread the message.
3. Books Received
GOD According to God. A Physicist Porves We've Been Wrong About God All Along
by Gerald L. Schroeder, 2009, USA
The Post American World by Fareed Zakaria, 2008, USA
[This is the book Barak Hussein Obama made a point of having it be seen in his hand.
The work is actually quite good and brings up several points of interest. We hope to publish a review of it.]
4. Alethea : multitude of nations is better translated as "commonwealth of nations"
Re Brit-Am Now no. 1394
From Genesis 48:19 The multitude of nations is better translated a "commonwealth of nations" When Jacob crossed his hands to pass the blessing on to Ephraim, he assured the British people of their greatness and even today this is true, the stone, "Jacobs Pillar" was under the coronation chair that all kings and queens of England are crowned upon - Ezekiel 21:27 I will overturn, overturn it and it shall be no more, until He come whose right it is; and I will give it to Him. First turn Jeremiah brought Scota one of King Zedekiah's daughters of Judah, to be married to King Heremon of Ireland - Second turn when Queen Mary tried to place the entire empire under the church of Rome - Third turn when King James IV of Scotland moved his throne to England and London became the capital of the British (covenant people) - Manasseh means "forgetful" in the Hebrew and the American people have forgotten their roots - they think they are gentiles but are the lost tribe of Israel. The British flag is a crossing of Jacobs hands when he passed the blessing to Josephs younger son. The flag was on the Hong Kong flag, to Canada, South Africa to all British established nations. Why do you think that this tiny island nation became so powerful - just like this tiny country Israel became powerful.
5. David Ramdhari: Question about European "intolerance" for Israel
Hello Yair,
I was pointed to the website by Tim McHyde whose book I purchased.
I was made aware of the American/British connection from articles by Herbert Armstrong of Worldwide Church.
Recently, my interest has been rekindled by Tim's book.
We now told that the lost tribes disappeared into the British and other European peoples. My question is:
Why, if their ancestry is Israeli, do most of the European countries not support Israel in the UN. They do very well at Israel bashing including people like Goldstone (South African judge and a Jew who "loves Israel"). Have they forgotten their roots?
Shalom,
