1. America in the Last Days
Question:
>What do your teachings mean for America in the Last Days?
>Thank You,

Answer:
We do not give specific interpretations of prophecy and are not qualified to do so.
In general it may be said that the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel are a
determining element amongst the North American population. They must be
made aware of their identity. Judah must also be made aware
as to who the Lost Ten Tribes really are. The two bodies must draw closer together.
How this is to be done we cannot say but it is obvious that the spreading
of right knowledge
needs to be first step.
2. Notice of Major Meeting
THE Major meeting of Brit-Am will be held on Tuesday, 14th October, 1930,
in the Meeting Room on the Second Floor of the Mount Zion Hotel, Derech
Hevron 17, in Jerusalem
(just around the corner from the Railway Station). If you are in Israel at
the time please come.
3. "Lost Israelite Identity" Now Available Once More!
Copies of our book "Lost Israelite Identity. The Hebrew Origin of Celtic
Peoples" that until now was considered out of print are now available in
limited numbers.
The book may be ordered from Brit-Am in Jerusalem and costs $30.
It is full of valuable information and well worth purchasing.
4. Changes to web-site
Some changes to our web-site have been made that are worth viewing:
Yair,
I made some changes/additions to the following:
The Home page at: http://britam.org
Biblical Truth [book} at: http://britam.org/truth.html
Origin at: http://britam.org/davidiyorigin.html
And added a new page on the Two Messiahs at: http://britam.org/messiah.html

5. Psychology.
Apart from all the Biblical and historical evidence an additional fact is
that only people from those identified by Brit-Am as Lost Israelites fit
the psychological profiles of Lost Israelites in general and of specific
tribes in particular
as identified by us.
6. Good product, good people
Our publications make for good reading. We produce a good product.
Our list grows slowly but steadily.
We have not been growing at a fantastic rate like some other groups may
have done
but the impression is that the quality of those who join us is very high.
7. "Ephraimites" speak on Arutz-7
Subject: Did you hear this Mr. Yair!
Wendy [Sutherland] speaking on Arutz Sheva about "Ephraim."
Windows media or real player will play it for you. Interesting.

8. Archaeology: The Four-roomed house
The Four-roomed house is a type of dwelling that according to archaeologists
was peculiar to Israelites in Biblical times.
The Hyksos who once ruled in Egypt also used the four roomed house.
In "Lost Israelite Identity" we identified the Hyksos with Israelites and
showed how both
archaeology, Rabbinical traditions, and Irish Mythology throw light on this
identification that also
has implications for identifying the Lost ten Tribes,
An interesting article from BAR magazine concerning the four-roomed house
may be seen at:

9. Biblical Proof no.34: Zarephath
[Obadiah 1:20] AND THE CAPTIVITY OF THIS HOST OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL
SHALL POSSESS THAT OF THE CANAANITES, EVEN UNTO ZAREPHATH; AND THE
CAPTIVITY OF JERUSALEM, WHICH IS IN SEPHARAD, SHALL POSSESS THE CITIES OF
THE SOUTH.
According to the Commentators, in the above verse Canaanites means Germany,
Zarephath means France and Britain, Sepharad means Spain. The verse should
be rendered from the Hebrew original and in accordance with the Major Commentators
as the following:
[Obadiah 1:20] AND THIS FIRST EXILE OF THE TEN TRIBES OF ISRAEL [Rashi] WHO
DWELL FROM GERMANY [=CANAANITES, Iben Ezra] AND HOLLAND [Jewish sources
quoted by Calvin], EVEN UNTO FRANCE [=ZAREPHATH, Rashi, Iben Ezra, Radak,
Abarbanel, Daat Sofrim] AND ENGLAND [= ZAREPHATH, Abarbanel] AND THE
CAPTIVITY OF THE JEWS OF JERUSALEM IN SPAIN [=SEPHARAD, Targum Yehonatan]
SHALL POSSESS THE CITIES OF THE SOUTH.
Taking the Classical Commentators as a whole we see that the Lost Ten Tribes
were considered to be in the west, especially in France and Britain. According
to the Geneva Bible of Calvin on Obadiah 1:20:
By the Canaanites, the Jews mean the Dutchmen, and by Zarephath, France, and by Sepharad, Spain.
At all events Zarephathmeant France (Rashi) and the north or France and Britain
(Abarbanel) together. The verse was understood as saying that the Lost Ten
tribes were in Zarephath (Rashi, Nachmanides).
In our book Ephraim and also in our Biblical Commentary on Obadiah we went
into this subject in some depth and gave some historical justifications
for the identifications made.
