1. The Sanhedrin, New Moon Sighting, Brit-Am, Norman Willis
What was the Sanhedrin?
In ancient times Moses appointed 70 elders to assist him in ruling the Israelites.
Numbers 11:
16 The LORD therefore said to Moses, Gather for Me seventy men from the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and their officers and bring them to the tent of meeting, and let them take their stand there with you. 17 Then I will come down and speak with you there, and I will take of the Spirit who is upon you, and will put Him upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, so that you will not bear it all alone.
This was the first Sanhedrin.
The Romans persecuted the Jews and forbade the Sanhedrin to function killing sages who were appointed to it.
Attempt to renew the Sanhedrin 2004
An effort was made to renew the Sanhedrin in.2004. This received a little support among National Religious circles but little beyond that.
A portion of its members were recognized scholars. Even so, it has not flourished.
Despite much publicity, it did not receive widespread recognition. Nevertheless it continues to function. It no longer claims to be a Sanhedrin but rather a kind of Sanhedrin-in-Preparation.
Historically it may turn out to have been important or it could become disregarded as the idiosyncrasy of a few eccentrics. Time will tell.

2004 attempt to revive the Sanhedrin

The present Sanhedrin recognizes the Hebrew Calendar used by all Jews.
Apart from that they are preparing themselves for a time when the old method of corroborating the dates of the New Moon by witnesses will be re-instituted.
For this reason they have regular organized Sightings of the Moon.
See:
Committee concerning the fixing of the Calendar
http://www.thesanhedrin.org/en/index.php?title=Committee_concerning_the_fixing_of_the_Calendar
A special court has been established to accept evidence concerning the sighting of the New Moon, as required by Jewish Law. This court is made up of various justices who are assembled to hear evidence as the opportunity permits. The purpose of the court is to increase awareness, develop skills, and resolve halachic issues that arise when determining the Jewish Calendar according to testimony by witnesses. At this point there is no intention to supercede the mathematical calendar currently in use and fix the calendar on the basis of the testimony, such a step should be unacceptable to the public and spiritual leadership. Nevertheless, witnesses appear before the court and are investigated with precision according to what they saw. Sometimes the witnesses may also bring photographic evidence to support their testimony. Evidence is already being collected by the yiresh shomaim volunteers throughout the Land of Israel, with the intention that testimony can be presented before the court in a full legal fashion when the peoples' hearts are ready for it.
Norman Willis has established contact with the Sanhedrin.
He was invited to a Moon Sighting.
Norman send us his impression and some photos.
Here is the message we received from Norman:

Sanhedrin Sights New Moon: Happy New Year!
Above, the nascent Jewish Sanhedrin sights the first crescent sliver of the new moon from Mount Scopus in the land of Israel,. They are interested to transition back to the Aviv barley (Torah) calendar, when the time is right.
Because I know people will ask, the Sanhedrin took several copies of Yair Davidiy's Achim Aherim (The Other Brothers) for their study purposes. (Achim Aherim is an updated translation of Origin into Hebrew.) They said they will do their research, and get back to me regarding the book after they have had time to do their analysis.
At this time nothing is promised, but I was greatly encouraged and blessed to sight the new moon with the Sanhedrin's New Moon team (Nassi Hillel Weiss is third from the right, Secretary Dov Stein is fourth from the right.)

2. Beitar Ilit. Where does Yair Davidiy Now Live?
Beitar Illit
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beitar_Illit
Beitar Illit (...officially Betar Illit; "Illit" is pronounced "ee-leet"; ..) is an Israeli settlement and city in Gush Etzion, 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south of Jerusalem,[2] in the Judaean Mountains of the West Bank.[3] Beitar Illit is one of Israel's largest and most rapidly growing settlements,[4] and in 2015 had a population of 49,343.
It takes about 10 minutes [by car] to get to [the outskirts of] Jerusalem; Tel Aviv is around 60 minutes away.
With an annual birth rate of 1,800 births, Beitar Illit has the fastest population growth among the West Bank settlements.[10] Approximately 63 percent of the population is under the age of 18, which is the highest percentage of children in any Israeli settlement or city.[10] According to local authorities the population may reach 100,000 by 2020,[14] based on population growth and the building of new apartments to attract more Haredim from Bnei Brak and Jerusalem.
The population of Beitar Illit is 100% Haredi.[10][15] Approximately 50% of the population is Hasidic.[16] An estimated 10 percent of the population is English-speaking.
The city is well known for its landscaping and general cleanliness. There are 94 parks and hundreds of playgrounds in the city.[10] From 2000 to 2013, Beitar Illit earned five out of five stars in the Council for a Beautiful Israel's annual "Beautiful Town in a Beautiful Israel" contest, which recognizes a city's investment in environment, aesthetics, and maintenance of appearance and cleanliness. In 2005 the city won the Council for a Beautiful Israel's "Beauty Flag", which is awarded every five years.[10]

Those who are like-minded can find a Torah paradise where everything and everyone is Kosher. The town is an object of beauty. Obviously a blessing from HaKodesh Baruch Hu [The holy One Blessed Be He]. The town is incredibly secure and crime is almost non-existent. Here Torah is King.

3. Amnon Goldberg Writes to the Press About the Ten Tribes being in Western Nations!
They printed my letter below in today's London Jewish Tribune:
Dear Sir
Further to 'Seventy Nations Hundreds of Countries' (JT 9 March), a solid case can be made from the Tenach, Chazal, archeology, geography, symbology, national characteristics, historical role, folklore, linguistics, dna etc that the Ten Lost Tribes exiled by Sancherev migrated northwards and then westwards, and that representatives of Reuven are to be found in France, Shimon in Wales, Yissochor in Switzerland and Finland, Zevulun in Holland, Gad in Sweden, Asher in Ireland, Dan amongst the Danes and Celts, Naftoli in Norway,....and Ephraim and Menashe amongst the British, American, Australian, New Zealand and South African peoples!
In seeming fulfilment of numerous prophecies in the Tenach, the British and Americans in particular became world powers, were numerous, ruled over other peoples, became seafarers, were located at the 'Ends of the Earth', had agricultural plenty, displayed a relative lack of antisemitism, were symbolized by the lion and unicorn, "possessed the gates of their enemies" (eg the strategic choke points of the Suez canal, Dover straights, Ceylon, Gibraltar, Panama canal, Malta, Aden, Falklands, Cape of Good Hope, Cyprus, Hong Kong, Singapore etc), were the only nations able to defeat Esau (Germany and Italy) - 'Esau can only fall by the hands of the descendants of Yosef' (Bava Basra 123) etc.
Although the Ten Lost Tribes long ago lost awareness of their Ancient Israelite origins and have the status of complete gentiles (Yevamos 17), when British Prime Minister Theresa May recently told US President Donald Trump "Let's lead the world together once again!", she may have been echoing an Ephraimitic-Menashic truism! We hope that in the future we of Yehudah and those of the Ten Lost Tribes of Yisrael, whoever and wherever they are, will be reunited: 'In those days the House of Yehudah will walk with the House of Yisrael, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance to their fathers' (Yirmiyah 3:18), "Thus says the L-rd G-d: Behold, I will take the stick of Yosef which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Yisrael, his comrades, and I will place them together with the stick of Yehudah, to make one stick, and they shall be one in My hand" (Yechezkel 37:19)

5. New Article. End Times Signs?
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/endtimes.html
Extract:
Are the Following Three Points Indicative of Prophecy in the Process of Fulfillment?
(1) Most Jews not in the Land of Israel OR in Israelite Nations!
(2) In the End Times the Jews are destined to go to the Ten Tribes and Return with them.
(3) The Return of Judah to the Land of Israel is Prophesied to Precede the Return of the Other Tribes.
