The name Ypper could possibly have been derived from

Orjan:
Nori and Osten could in my opinion have meant simply
North and East.
The area of Naphtali was located to the north in the
land of Israel and the area of Gad was located to the
east.
This could correspond to Norway being to the north of
Denmark and Sweden to the east.

2. Mark: "heard very colorful stories" Subject: The Postman came...
Yair, the Postman (no, not Kevin Costner) brought Birt-Am Truth #10 on Shabbat.
Sorry for "troubling" you (I must be a Rueben-son). I enjoyed the Churchill
article. I have heard very colorful stories about the Duke of Marlborough, that
would have had no appropriate place in Brit-Am Truth, but still show our Elohim
works in mysterious ways to bring His will to pass. Shalom and God bless you.

the Lost Ten Tribes will return. Disaster will have overtaken Ephraim but a
remnant will repent and be saved. Judah will suffer for not keeping the Law as

other enemies of Israel will be punished.

reconciliation. Judah will be compensated for its suffering. Do good and God
will reward you.
Isaiah Summary chs. 51 to 55
The Ten Tribes in the Isles will anticipate the Almighty. The Ten Tribes must
realize who they are and acknowledge the Almighty. The Jews bore the sins of

others.
