1. Goths and Parthians?
From: Cam Rea <tragicpoet77@yahoo.com>
Subject: Re: Goths/ Parthia
It seems as if only a small portion of the Goths settled in Sweden. The rest seem to have settled north of the eastern half of the Roman empire. For we know the wars that took place around the end of third century ad. The Parthian Empire fell early in the 3rd century ad. So their is this gap of about 50 years in between, and reading from the Roman accounts they saw the Goths as a familiar host they had once fought, but couldn't put a thumb on it. It was said the Goths wore Iranian dress by the Roman accounts.
2. Proverbs 7:4-27
[Proverbs 7:4] SAY UNTO WISDOM, THOU ART MY SISTER; AND CALL UNDERSTANDING THY KINSWOMAN:
This is advice to be familiar with common sense.
Just as one would usually let his sister tell him what's what
and even pay attention to her criticism so too
should we let wise counsels be acceptable to us
and even disposition ourselves so that such advice comes to us.
[Proverbs 7:5] THAT THEY MAY KEEP THEE FROM THE STRANGE WOMAN, FROM THE STRANGER WHICH FLATTERETH WITH HER WORDS.
This is good advice at all times and should be taken literally.
In addition to its important literal sense it is also an allegory
not to let our pride or "foreign" considerations divert us from the truth.
[Proverbs 7:6] FOR AT THE WINDOW OF MY HOUSE I LOOKED THROUGH MY CASEMENT,
[Proverbs 7:7] AND BEHELD AMONG THE SIMPLE ONES, I DISCERNED AMONG THE YOUTHS, A YOUNG MAN VOID OF UNDERSTANDING,
[Proverbs 7:8] PASSING THROUGH THE STREET NEAR HER CORNER; AND HE WENT THE WAY TO HER HOUSE,
[Proverbs 7:9] IN THE TWILIGHT, IN THE EVENING, IN THE BLACK AND DARK NIGHT:
[Proverbs 7:10] AND, BEHOLD, THERE MET HIM A WOMAN WITH THE ATTIRE OF AN HARLOT, AND SUBTIL OF HEART.
[Proverbs 7:11] (SHE IS LOUD AND STUBBORN; HER FEET ABIDE NOT IN HER HOUSE:
[Proverbs 7:12] NOW IS SHE WITHOUT, NOW IN THE STREETS, AND LIETH IN WAIT AT EVERY CORNER.)
[Proverbs 7:13] SO SHE CAUGHT HIM, AND KISSED HIM, AND WITH AN IMPUDENT FACE SAID UNTO HIM,
[Proverbs 7:14] I HAVE PEACE OFFERINGS WITH ME; THIS DAY HAVE I PAYED MY VOWS.
She has finished a debt and feels the need to let herself go.
[Proverbs 7:15] THEREFORE CAME I FORTH TO MEET THEE, DILIGENTLY TO SEEK THY FACE, AND I HAVE FOUND THEE.
The young man does not realize the trap he is in.
If he think she has eyes only for him he should know that if not he then it will be somebody else.
If on the other hand he thinks that it may as well be him as anybody else since it is bound to be someone
he should realize that he is liable to be punished as if it was only he, as if he was entirely responsible.
he is being hunted down, quarried, and led to the kill.
His masculinity may lead him to believe that he is the one doing the staking
and maybe he is.
In certain border-line situations it may be difficult to apportion the blame after the
event. If however the youth had have listened to wise advice as he would have listened
to an elder sister or a kindly aunt then there would be no need for recriminations.
[Proverbs 7:16] I HAVE DECKED MY BED WITH COVERINGS OF TAPESTRY, WITH CARVED WORKS, WITH FINE LINEN OF EGYPT.
http://www.touregypt.net/magazine/mag01012001/magf4.htm
<<So what did the ancient Egyptians wear? Linen. Most everything men, women and children wore was made from linen. In fact, the ancient Egyptians believed the Gods wore linen. Linen is made from flax-a winter crop--and there are many tomb and relief scenes showing men and women pulling the flax from the ground. The ancient people also donned wool capes on cold evenings. Silk first came to Egypt during the Ptolemaic Period; the famed Cleopatra VII wore silk.>>
[Proverbs 7:17] I HAVE PERFUMED MY BED WITH MYRRH, ALOES, AND CINNAMON.
[Proverbs 7:18] COME, LET US TAKE OUR FILL OF LOVE UNTIL THE MORNING: LET US SOLACE OURSELVES WITH LOVES.
[Proverbs 7:19] FOR THE GOODMAN IS NOT AT HOME, HE IS GONE A LONG JOURNEY:
Her man has one away and left her alone she says, there is nothing to fear.
[Proverbs 7:20] HE HATH TAKEN A BAG OF MONEY WITH HIM, AND WILL COME HOME AT THE DAY APPOINTED.
[Proverbs 7:21] WITH HER MUCH FAIR SPEECH SHE CAUSED HIM TO YIELD, WITH THE FLATTERING OF HER LIPS SHE FORCED HIM.
[Proverbs 7:22] HE GOETH AFTER HER STRAIGHTWAY, AS AN OX GOETH TO THE SLAUGHTER, OR AS A FOOL TO THE CORRECTION OF THE STOCKS;
[Proverbs 7:23] TILL A DART STRIKE THROUGH HIS LIVER; AS A BIRD HASTETH TO THE SNARE, AND KNOWETH NOT THAT IT IS FOR HIS LIFE.
Even when punishment comes upon him he will not be aware of it.
He will not make the logical conclusion and realize the obvious cause and effect
sequence.
[Proverbs 7:24] HEARKEN UNTO ME NOW THEREFORE, O YE CHILDREN, AND ATTEND TO THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH.
[Proverbs 7:25] LET NOT THINE HEART DECLINE TO HER WAYS, GO NOT ASTRAY IN HER PATHS.
[Proverbs 7:26] FOR SHE HATH CAST DOWN MANY WOUNDED: YEA, MANY STRONG MEN HAVE BEEN SLAIN BY HER.
[Proverbs 7:27] HER HOUSE IS THE WAY TO HELL, GOING DOWN TO THE CHAMBERS OF DEATH.
We repeat this is an exhortation that is meant to be taken both literally
and as a parable.
Anything that takes one away from Biblical Truth such as anti-Semitism, Conspiracy Theories, or
New Age paganism may be represented by the harlot in the above parable.
3. Uncle Tom? Quisling?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Tom
<<Uncle Tom is a pejorative for a black person who is perceived by other blacks as subservient to white authority figures, or as seeking ingratiation with them by way of unnecessary accommodation. The term Uncle Tom comes from the title character of Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, though there is debate over whether the character himself is deserving of the pejorative he spawned.>>
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vidkun_Quisling
<<Vidkun Abraham Lauritz Jonssen Quisling (July 18, 1887October 24, 1945) was a Norwegian fascist politician and officer. He held the office of Minister President in occupied Norway from February 1942 to the end of World War II, while the elected social democratic cabinet of Johan Nygaardsvold was exiled in London. After the war he was tried for high treason and subsequently executed by firing squad. His name has become an eponym for traitor, especially a collaborationist.>>
Brit-Am believes that the Lost Ten Tribes are primarily
amongst Western Peoples.
Our emphasis is on Research, Revelation (i.e. spreading the message),
and Reconciliation between Judah and Joseph and Joseph and Judah.
We are Orthodox Jews in the religious sense.
Some people are hesitant in accepting us for religious reasons whereas
others find it an advantage to have someone like us spread
these beliefs.
We would prefer to simply have the matters judged on their own merits
but since we face prejudice anyway we accept whatever positive
aspects come our way. The most important point is to do
our duty concerning the Brit-Am message.
Recently Brit-Am has been going through a slightly difficult period
but it is not all negative. There are quite a few positive points working
in our favor and even getting stronger.
It is true that we are short of funds but there is nothing new about this.
Some people got the mistaken impression that we are more vulnerable
at present than is in fact the case.
A few people seemed to suggest that we should "objectively"
consider anti-Semitic doctrines.
One person wrote us saying that "Ephraimite" leaders were claiming we
were an "anti-Missionary" front (whatever that is).
A leading "Ephraimite" leader then contacted us and said it was not true.
The reason why we were in difficulties, he said, was because we had criticized
Barry Chamish. To our minds Chamish is only a "respectable"
cloak for anti-Semitism so when people start relating to his idiocy
with religious-like reverence it reflects on them, not on us.
To cut the subject short,
Brit-Am cannot tolerate any form of anti-Jewish message.
[We also, in case you have not noticed, are careful concerning
the integrity of "Joseph"].
Brit-Am cannot tolerate lies or compromise on what we are saying.
We regret losing anyone but it is a free world and they who
cannot accept Brit-Am have their own problem.
They who want Brit-Am around should support Brit-Am because the others are not going to
do so.
