1. More Emphasis on Brit-Am Priorities
and their Implications. The Lost Ten Tribes are in the West and that is where they must be sought
for.
All indications are that the present directions of Brit-Am Research are correct.
Most people however are not aware of it.
The majority are not interested in hearing of it.
Even when they do hear of it or read something about it they often dismiss it.
This applies both to Judah and tot he Ten tribes.
It is even more pertinent to the Ten Tribes than to Judah.
Brit-Am, Movement of the Ten Tribes has been working on this issue for quite
some time and quite intensively.
Our impression is that the possibility exists to get through to the public and
to obtain a fair hearing.
This will be despite much prejudice and opposition.
Groups and individuals who increase prejudice against us by associating with
extraneous negative elements
or who interfere with our research, publicity, and other efforts are not allies
of ours.
If one wants to do something serious usually it must be done by stages.
Sometimes short-cuts are possible but do not count on it.
Brit-Am concentrates on its three main principles:
RESEARCH: Finding and Proving where the Ten Tribes are.
RECOGNITION: Publicizing the Results of Research.
RECONCILIATION: Bringing Together Judah and the Ten Ten Tribes.
This is what we do and what, God willing ,we will continue to do.
2. New Regular Feature
Brit-Am Tribal Researches (BATR)
Table of Contents
http://www.britam.org/BATR/BATRContents.html
Introduction.
We already have an off-and-ongoing regular feature known as Tribal Reports.
http://www.britam.org/TR/TRDirectory.html
The Tribal Reports (TR) are valuable and perhaps in the future we should develop
this feature more.
Tribal Reports concentrates on new items and matters of interest concerning
different ethnic and national groups we consider to be of substantial Israelite
origin.
Alongside of and in addition to TR we are now starting a new feature Brit-Am
Tribal Researches (BATR).
This will give information concerning the individual Israelite Tribes as we come
across it.
This will not only assist our research efforts in the long run but also at the
same time be for the benefit and enjoyment of our subscribers many of whom may
find much of interest in this new feature.

3. The Re-Union in Ezekiel and the Name
Israel.
Ezekiel 37 describes the future Re-Union of Judah and the Ten Tribes.
Ezekiel 37:
15 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 16 ?As for you, son of man,
take a stick for yourself and write on it: 'For Judah and for the children of
Israel, his companions.' Then take another stick and write on it, 'For Joseph,
the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel, his companions.' 17 Then
join them one to another for yourself into one stick, and they will become one
in your hand.
Notice the expressions above: # For Judah and for the children of
Israel...For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel...#
Both Judah and Joseph are associated with Israel.
This may seem obvious but at times there is confusion on this matter.
When Judah and Israel are juxtaposed then Judah means the Jews and Israel the
Ten Tribes.
Otherwise "Israel" may refer to the Ten Tribes alone or "Israel" may mean Judah
and the Ten Tribes together OR
in some cases Israel may mean only Judah.
The Brit-Am enterprise is a Biblical work. God willing, they who assist Brit-Am will be blessed.
Brit-Am depends on contributions alongside purchases of our publications.
