Location, Numbers, International Power Identify who are the Ten Tribes (8 January, 2013, Tevet 26, 5773)
Three Main Points prove the Lost Ten Tribes today to be found amongst Western Peoples: Their Vast Numbers; Their location at geographical extremities; Their Power and Influence on the International Scene. Numerous other proofs confirm this but these three are simple to demonstrate and directly apparent in black and white from Scripture.

We have more than 120 Biblical Proofs showing that the Lost Ten Tribes are now to be found amongst Western Nations.
We also have Rabbinical Evidence supplementing and confirming our Biblical Proofs.
In addition we have Proof from various Secular Sources.
All of this (and much, much more) is correct.
It is the Truth.
Sometimes however it might be too much. It could be a case of Overkill.
Much of our proofs are straightforward and prove the case in black and white. Some of the evidence however is involved and requires words of explanation and initial persuasion to make it understandable and acceptable.
In addition, some of our Biblical Proofs overlap with, and run into, each other. Many could be condensed under one heading.
For example, the Seventy Nations showing how each of the 70 sons and grandsons of Jacob became forefathers to Tribal and national entities in Western History have each and every one listed as one proof in their own right. [See The Tribes] This is what they deserve since each one is important in itself when properly taken into consideration. Nevertheless, they could also ALL be listed as one.
At all events it could be some of our followers and those interested in what we have to say may not be able to see the wood for the trees.
We therefore think it might be worthwhile to present the case under a few main headings and those who wish may continue further from there.
We have chosen Three Main Points encompassing several items.
The items chosen are the simplest and least complicated though not necessarily the most conclusive.
The Three Main Points are Numbers, Location, International Power.

2. Numbers
It was prophesied that the Lost Ten Tribes would be extremely numerous and would become a major proportion of world population.
We must therefore look for an ethnic group (in which the different members are related to each other) of significance.
Inhabitants of the British Isles together with West Europeans are one historical continuum. They are all more or less interrelated.
Numerous: Genesis 15:5, 22:17, 24:60, 32:12, Numbers 23:10, Isaiah 10:22, 24:16, 26:15, Hosea 1:10
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them (Genesis 24:60).
5 Then He brought him outside and said, 'Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.' And He said to him, 'So shall your descendants be' [Genesis 15:5].
17 blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies [Genesis 22:17].

3. Location
Israelites from the Lost Ten Tribes were destined to be located at the ends of the earth (Isaiah 24:16, 26:15, 41:8-9, 43:6, 49:6) meaning the geographical extremities of the Continental masses. They were to be found all over the world BUT it is especially emphasized that they were to be to the north (Jeremiah 3:18 31: 6-10) and the west (Isaiah 24:14, Hosea 1:10) and northwest (Isaiah 49:12) of the Land of Israel. They were also to be found in several Oceans (Numbers 24:7). We identify certain West European peoples in general with the Lost Ten Tribes . The British Isles and nations that emerged from them (such as the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa) we identify with the Tribes of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh. These nations are to be found at the geographical extremities of continental masses. They are concentrated to the north and west of the Land of Israel but also elsewhere. They are in Several Oceans.

4. Power
The Lost Ten Tribes were to become the most powerful nations on earth (Numbers 24:7-9, Micah 5:7-9) to rule the oceans (Numbers 24:7)., to control major strategic passage ways (Genesis 22:17, 24:60), to be the police-man of the globe (Jeremiah 51:20, Zechariah 10:7).
This what the Western Nations did. France and the Netherlands had important Empires spread all over the world. They were followed by the British and they by the Americans. The British and Americans especially based their foreign policy and long-range military strategy on possessing strategic points allowing them potential access to vital areas of those antagonistic to them i.e. the gates of their Enemies and of those who hate them.
The Gates of their Enemies:
17 blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies [Genesis 22:17].
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them (Genesis 24:60).
Jeremiah 51:
19 The Portion of Jacob is not like them,
For He is the Maker of all things;
And Israel is the tribe of His inheritance.
The LORD of hosts is His name.
20 You are My battle-ax and weapons of war:
For with you I will break the nation in pieces;
With you I will destroy kingdoms;
21 With you I will break in pieces the horse and its rider;
With you I will break in pieces the chariot and its rider;
22 With you also I will break in pieces man and woman;
With you I will break in pieces old and young;
With you I will break in pieces the young man and the maiden;
23 With you also I will break in pieces the shepherd and his flock;
With you I will break in pieces the farmer and his yoke of oxen;
And with you I will break in pieces governors and rulers.
Micah 5:
7 Then the remnant of Jacob
Shall be in the midst of many peoples,
Like dew from the LORD,
Like showers on the grass,
That tarry for no man
Nor wait for the sons of men.
8 And the remnant of Jacob
Shall be among the Gentiles,
In the midst of many peoples,
Like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Who, if he passes through,
Both treads down and tears in pieces,
And none can deliver.
9 Your hand shall be lifted against your adversaries,
And all your enemies shall be cut off.

We therefore see that the Three Points we chose: Locations, Vast Numbers, National Power all apply to Western Peoples and ONLY to them. This in itself is quite clear. The Biblical Verses correspond exactly with the reality. In addition to this we have hundreds of other proofs from numerous fields all of which confirm and strengthen our conclusions.
