Extracts:
[Genesis 37:21] AND REUBEN HEARD IT, AND HE DELIVERED HIM OUT OF THEIR HANDS; AND SAID, LET US NOT KILL HIM.
Reuben saved Joseph. Reuben put himself out to help his brother.
Reuben is dominant in France.
France has helped the USA, Britain, and Israel.
In WW1 the French did a lot and made great sacrifices and after the War may well not have received from her former Allies an attitude as sympathetic and helpful as was necessary.
In the Second World War it is true that France collapsed early and that Vichy France cooperated with the Nazis. On the other hand the French Army displayed great courage and self-sacrifice in its attempts to protect the British escape at Dunkirk. The French also (on the whole despite numerous exceptions) went out of their way to save the Jews and almost 80% of French Jewry were saved. This was probably (after Denmark) the highest percentage in Occupied Europe. In the 1950s and early 1960s French quite a few French government ministers and officials dedicated themselves wholeheartedly to the cause of the State of Israel. The French helped Israel arm and defend itself and develop a nuclear capability. The attitude of French officialdom and the French people has since changed drastically. There are still many pro-Israel elements in France today but anti-Semites have also began to take over and have been doing so for some time.
John Hulley tells me that the French people as a whole (relatively speaking) have a very high degree of natural empathy for the feelings of others.
French Protestants are mainly Calvinists and these identify very strongly with Biblical themes and often also with the Jewish people. The French Protestants were very active in helping to save Jews in the 2nd World War. Whole villages as one body participated in this activity.Â
My grandmother came from Alsace in France. Alsace is on the border between France and Germany. It has a large and ancient Jewish community. The non-Jewish people of Alsace speak a German dialect but on the whole identify with the French. Anti-Semitism however was always very strong in this area with notable exceptions.
[Genesis 38:28] AND IT CAME TO PASS, WHEN SHE TRAVAILED, THAT THE ONE PUT OUT HIS HAND: AND THE MIDWIFE TOOK AND BOUND UPON HIS HAND A SCARLET THREAD, SAYING, THIS CAME OUT FIRST.
Some say that this explains the Red Hand and Red Thread on the Coat of Arms of Ulster. Others attribute the Ulster signs to a legend concerning one of the early kings of Ulster. Whatever the case there are a lot of traditions in Ulster linking them to the Lost Tribes. Supporters of Brit-Am who visited Ulster say that per head of population Ulster has the most potentially supportive population for the Brit-Am message. Statistically however most of our customers and subscribers are in the USA especially on the West Coast or nearby and also in the Southern "Bible Belt". Brit-Am support appears to be strongest so far in Gilead land and the "Ephraimite" section of the USA. This is also the area that according to a Midrash will be the first to return in the Last Days.
