Boker tov Yair,
I understand the sentiments expressed above but it also raises the question
of how are we to know if God has opened the Door of opportunity to do this
or that unless we knock seeking a response or try to just walk forward in
faith and enter? Didn't religious Jews originally condemn the early
Zionists for "taking it upon themselves" to return to Zion before the
Messiah came? Yet later it was understood they prepared the way for others to follow.
As Rush Limbaugh states: "The pioneer gets the arrows." Those who are
willing and feel led to attempt to live in Israel before the official
reunification (like myself) must count the cost and be willing to suffer
for their beliefs. Those sufferings can be part of the birth pangs
necessary before the final deliverance (not that we're masochists), raising
awareness of our Israelite roots and responsibilities to an international level.
Joseph had to reveal himself to his brethren: "I am Joseph your brother."
Judah didn't reveal Joseph's identity. Those of us who are descended from
Joseph must become more active in revealing our Israelite identity without
apology. It is not our responsibility how others react, whether or not they
believe what we say, but it is our responsibility to proclaim these
powerful biblical truths. We are to join with anointed ones in Judah, such
as yourself, who are assisting in this great work that God has ordained to
restore the House of Israel as one nation under God, a truly united
Kingdom. You offer a unique approach to our Jewish brethren that is most
necessary and may our great Creator God publish your work and bless your
efforts a million-fold!

2. No Money?

Answer:
As you wish you are no longer on the list. I assume that is what you
wished and your remark about the money was only an incidental one.
On the other hand if there was something more to the remark you should be
aware that,
We have the merit and obligation to spread the Brit-Am message.
Anybody who is interested is welcome to receive our message. In doing so
they are
being helped (we hope) and also helping us to do what we should do.
We have to keep asking for money since we need it and usually need to ask
in order to receive it.
Most of our subscribers however either feel they cannot assist us or do not
wish to, and that is OK.
No-one should feel uneasy if they belong to this group and do not send
anything.
They certainly should not discontinue their subscription because of not
contributing.
We do not expect anything else.
We need to spread this message to as many Israelite (and other) people as
possible as well as possible.
Not everyone gives nor are they expected to do so.
Our messages concerning funding in a de facto sense are addressed to a
chosen few but we have to address them to everybody in order
to reach those few chosen ones who will respond.
3. Why are you trying to find the Lost Tribes?

Answer:
We are not trying to find the Lost Tribes. We believe they have been
found and that we have proof of it.
Some of our proofs were known to many others before we came along, some
were available but not generally known,
and some we merited to reveal. At all events we have something of our own
to contribute and a duty to attempt to do so.
This knowledge can help lead to:
Knowledge and understanding of the Bible and Prophecy
Reunification between Judah and "Joseph".
Recognition of "Joseph" as to his own Israelite origin and destiny.
Recognition by Judah as to who Joseph is.
Also in this age we are able to provide answers to many who experienced an
instinctive arousal
regarding the possibility of their Israelite origins.
4. Biblical History -Web Site
In our research and publications we have adopted the views of others and
sometimes proposed solutions of our own' not only regarding Scripture but also concerning
historical events and identities.
Some of our solutions have been quite revolutionary.
An academic paper that supports many of our Biblical History and related
research as well as much other valuable information may be seen at:
THE ARAB FRINGE
AN ENQUIRY CONCERNING Mu_ri, KUSH, MELUHHA AND MAGAN
by Michael Banyai
http://www.abara2.de/chronologie/fringe.php
He Identifies the Chaldeans with Kassites.
Supports the identification of Cush in both Africa and India.
Shows that there entities named Musri (Egypt) in several places in the
south and north including Urartu.
Idamaraz (maybe Idam Araz = sem. Land), in Gozan
[i.e. Land of Edom???] etc.
Banyai quotes from Egyptian and Assyrian sources.
The paper is long and technical and the English could be improved.
We do not necessarily agree with ALL his
conclusions but the information and sources are there.
Some of you may find the paper of interest.
5. Judaic roots of the Scots?
Another paper concerning the Lost Ten Tribes and justifying our conclusions
may be seen at:
http://www.originofnations.org/HRP_Papers/HRP_papers_index.htm
The paper concerns
The Judaic roots of the Scots and is by Craig White
The article is somewhat different in its conclusions from those who obtained
but nevertheless is worth viewing.
6. Ninth of Ab
This Thursday is the Ninth Day of the Month of Ab.
It is a Fast Day in which Jews mourn over the Destruction of the Temple.
It is one of the fast days spoken of by Zechariah:
[Zechariah 8:19] THUS SAITH THE LORD OF HOSTS; THE FAST OF THE FOURTH
MONTH, AND THE FAST OF THE FIFTH, AND THE FAST OF THE SEVENTH, AND THE FAST
OF THE TENTH, SHALL BE TO THE HOUSE OF JUDAH JOY AND GLADNESS, AND CHEERFUL
FEASTS; THEREFORE LOVE THE TRUTH AND PEACE.
THE FAST OF THE FOURTH MONTH, -17th Tammuz
THE FAST OF THE FIFTH, - 9th of Av
AND THE FAST OF THE SEVENTH, - 3rd of Tishrei (Gedaliah)
AND THE FAST OF THE TENTH, - 10th Tebeth (Tevet).
These four fasts are the four days of mourning associated with the
destruction of the Temple.
When the Temple is rebuilt they will become feast days.
Partly due to the Fast Day and partly for a combination of reasons this
week we may be slow in answering
individual queries and in posting messages. Next week we hope to renew
everything with greater vigor.
Quite a few people who have assisted us from time to time in the past seem
to have dropped out of sight.
Things seem to go in circles. Please send an offering to Brit-Am if you
feel able to and know that this is for good
and should bring a blessing upon those who give.
7. Biblical Proof no. 10. Be the Dominant World Power
The Lost Ten Tribes especially Joseph were to become a
Dominant World Power and towards the End of Days The most Powerful Nation
or National Grouping in the world.
This is evident from the implications of other identifying characteristics
that we mentioned in Biblical Proof no. 9 Rule over other Peoples, etc and
defeat Edom. It is also a sign in its own right.
This is described in the Prophecy of Bilaam, e.g.
[Numbers 24:7] HE SHALL POUR THE WATER OUT OF HIS BUCKETS, AND HIS SEED
SHALL BE IN MANY WATERS, AND HIS KING SHALL BE HIGHER THAN AGAG, AND HIS
KINGDOM SHALL BE EXALTED.
AGAG represents the most powerful ruler in the non-Israelite world. Israel
will surpass his might.
Many waters in all Oceans and on every sea. A powerful world-encompassing kingdom.
[Numbers 24:8] GOD BROUGHT HIM FORTH OUT OF EGYPT; HE HATH AS IT WERE THE
STRENGTH OF AN UNICORN: HE SHALL EAT UP THE NATIONS HIS ENEMIES, AND SHALL
BREAK THEIR BONES, AND PIERCE THEM THROUGH WITH HIS ARROWS.
A mighty nation defeating all its enemies. There is hardly a nation in the
world that at some stage or other was not defeated in battle by Britain
and/or the USA. Again we have the symbol of the Unicorn. The Midrash
(Numbers Rabah 2;7) says that the unicorn is the symbol of Manasseh. It is
true that the unicorn is now part of the symbolic coat of arms of the UK
but they derived it from Scotland which has two unicorns on its standard.
The USA is dominated by Manasseh. Is the above verse hinting that Manasseh
(symbolized by the unicorn) would end up being the most powerful tribe?
[Numbers 24:9] HE COUCHED, HE LAY DOWN AS A LION, AND AS A GREAT LION: WHO
SHALL STIR HIM UP? BLESSED IS HE THAT BLESSETH THEE, AND CURSED IS HE
THAT CURSETH THEE.
Also:
[Micah 5:7] AND THE REMNANT OF JACOB SHALL BE IN THE MIDST OF MANY PEOPLE
AS A DEW FROM THE LORD, AS THE SHOWERS UPON THE GRASS, THAT TARRIETH NOT
FOR MAN, NOR WAITETH FOR THE SONS OF MEN.
[Micah 5:8] AND THE REMNANT OF JACOB SHALL BE AMONG THE GENTILES IN THE
MIDST OF MANY PEOPLE AS A LION AMONG THE BEASTS OF THE FOREST, AS A YOUNG
LION AMONG THE FLOCKS OF SHEEP: WHO, IF HE GO THROUGH, BOTH TREADETH DOWN,
AND TEARETH IN PIECES, AND NONE CAN DELIVER.
[Micah 5:9] THINE HAND SHALL BE LIFTED UP UPON THINE ADVERSARIES, AND ALL
THINE ENEMIES SHALL BE CUT OFF.
