Esau was also known as "Edom." Esau was the twin brother and prime adversary of Israel meaning Judah and the Lost Ten Tribes. Edom gave rise to several nations and to ruling military elites among different peoples. We find Edomites among the Germans, Russians, Ukrainians, Japanese, Chinese, and others. Edom was also prominent among the Ancient Romans.

Heinrich Graetz, "Readmission"
How the Jews in Recent Times were allowed back into England
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/guest/graetz.html
Extract:
Cromwell had called together a new parliament, the so-called Short, or Barebones, Parliament, which was composed wholly of Saints, i. e., Puritan preachers, officers with a Biblical bias, and Millennium visionaries. The partiality of Cromwell's officers for the old Jewish system is shown by the serious proposition that the Council of State should consist of seventy members, after the number of the Jewish
Sanhedrin. In Parliament sat General Harrison, a Baptist, who, with his party, wished to see the Mosaic law introduced into England.

4. Explaining the Division, Exile, and Loss of Identity
The Task of the Ten Tribes
Avigdor asked:
1. Can you direct me to an article of yours that breaks down the chronology of the dispersed tribes in a concise manner along with the reasons for their dispersion per 1 and 2 Kings?
2. Can you direct me to an article of yours that combines all the prophecies of Yisrael coming home?
3. Is there an article out there that shows an approximate timeline when Yisrael is awakened and comes home?
May HaShem bless you mightily for your faith in these turbulent times
Avigdor

1. Here are links concerning the States of Initial Exile and the Migrations that followed it.

2. The Prophets (Isaiah, Jeremiah, Exekiel, Hosea, Amos, etc.) spoke of the return of Israel.
The Commentators Abarbanell and others put together the various prophecies concerning the End Times in an ordered way.
Our Online Commentaries on those books also speak of this.
We have not however yet attempted a coherent systematic analysis of the relevant verses.
We have concentrated more on using the verses to help us confirm our identifications of the Lost Ten Tribes and to understand the reasons behind what happened.
3. We do not have a Timeline concerning prophecy and the End Times. We do not really even have a clear consecutive ordering of what will happen e.g. which event follows which.
Perhaps we should work on it?
At all events our understanding is frequently growing. We are on the right track.
The Simple message of the Bible is that the Exiles were punishment primarily for the sin of idolatry.
BUT when we look at the passages more closely we find the following:
1. The Israelites were divided into 2 sections, Judah and Israel.
2. Both Judah and Israel sinned. Israel (the Ten Tribes) worshipped idols and so did Judah but in the passage below Judah is recalled as sinning but idolatry (on the part of Judah) is not expressly mentioned
3. Judah was punished for worshipping idols by having "Israel" separate and leave,
cf.
2-Kings (NKJV) 17:19 Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made..... 21 For He tore Israel from the house of David, and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king..... 22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them, 23 until the LORD removed Israel out of His sight, as He had said by all His servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away from their own land to Assyria, as it is to this day.
It appears that being separated from the Ten Tribes was also a PUNISHMENT for Judah!
Having the Ten Tribes return will likewise be a 'healing experience" for Judah!
4. Israel (i.e. the 10 Tribes) was punished by being exiled
e.g.
2-Kings (NKJV) 17:
5 Now the king of Assyria went throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria and besieged it for three years. 6 In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria and carried Israel away to Assyria, and placed them in Halah and by the Habor, the River of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 For so it was that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, who had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and they had feared other gods, 8 and had walked in the statutes of the nations whom the LORD had cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made. 9 Also the children of Israel secretly did against the LORD their God things that were not right, and they built for themselves high places in all their cities, from watchtower to fortified city. 10 They set up for themselves sacred pillars and wooden images on every high hill and under every green tree. 11 There they burned incense on all the high places, like the nations whom the LORD had carried away before them; and they did wicked things to provoke the Lord to anger, 12 for they served idols, of which the LORD had said to them, “You shall not do this thing.”
13 Yet the LORD testified against Israel and against Judah, by all of His prophets, every seer, saying, “Turn from your evil ways, and keep My commandments and My statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by My servants the prophets.” 14 Nevertheless they would not hear, but stiffened their necks, like the necks of their fathers, who did not believe in the LORD their God. 15 And they rejected His statutes and His covenant that He had made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He had testified against them; they followed idols, became idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them that they should not do like them. 16 So they left all the commandments of the Lord their God, made for themselves a molded image and two calves, made a wooden image and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. 17 And they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, practiced witchcraft and soothsaying, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him to anger. 18 Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them from His sight; there was none left but the tribe of Judah alone.
19 Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made. 20 And the LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel, afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of plunderers, until He had cast them from His sight. 21 For He tore Israel from the house of David, and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king. Then Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them commit a great sin. 22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them, 23 until the LORD removed Israel out of His sight, as He had said by all His servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away from their own land to Assyria, as it is to this day.
An analysis of other passages and related sources indicates that in addition to Scenario 1 there was also Scenario 2.
Scenario 1 is that outlined above, i.e.
The Tribes sinned. They were separated with the Separation being part of the punishment for sin.
The Ten Tribes were exiled (and got lost) whereas Judah did not get lost.
Scenario 2.
In addition to Scenario 1 we find other reasons for what happened being involved.
The initial preferred option was that (a) Judah and Israel together keep the Torah and (b) both participate in civilizing the rest of humanity.
Something like this will indeed take place in the Time of the Messiah.
Meanwhile the two tasks were divided. Judah has been primarily responsible for (a) and the Ten Tribes for (b).

Blessings to Abraham. Multitudes of people, Universal Power, the Promised Land
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/biblical-proof/blessings/abraham.html
Extracts:
Abraham will become a great and might nation.
All the nations of the earth will be blessed in him.
They will "keep the way of the LORD by doing righteousness and justice."
Both Following this and as a Prerequisite to do this they shall receive the blessings.
In other words he shall
"become a great and might nation"
in order that
"All the nations of the earth will be blessed in him."
After which he will be further rewarded.
The blessing concerning becoming exceedingly populous, possessing strategic seagates and thoroughfares, and bringing a blessing to all the peoples of the earth is NOW given unconditionally.
"By Myself I have sworn," i.e. without condition.
The Land is NOT mentioned since the Land is still conditional on worshipping God, the Covenant of Circumcision and Keeping the Law.
The Ten Tribes were to receive one aspect of the Blessings and its concomitant tasks and rewards whereas Judah was to receive the other.
Master Plan. An Outline

The Purpose of the Exile
https://britam.org/tape3.html
Extract:
Some part of the Twelve Tribes of Israel had to fulfill the role of becoming a nation no matter what the cost. Part of the task of the Israelite Tribes was to be become a great and mighty nation. This was unconditional and had to be fulfilled. The Lost Ten Tribes took this task upon themselves. In order to fulfill this task they had to loose their identity.
Rabbi Valle, "Ephraim to Return!"
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/hosea/valle.html
Rabbi Moshe David VALI (1697- 1776):
# It is a known matter that Israel [i.e. the Ten Trbies] did not descend into the Realms of Pollution other than for the Need to Clarify his Destiny. He needed to fulfill the will of God and reform the world through redirecting its forces. When this is done they shall return to their Source. There will be no need to remain in that situation any more. This is the meaning of, 'Ephraim shall say, 'What have I to do anymore with idols?'" (Hosea 14:8). #

Early English Jews. An Historical Outline
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/16/britain/earlyjews.html
A village of probable converts to Judaism was wiped out. In 1290, at the demand of the Pope, in the reign of Edward-1 it was decided to expel them. Their preoccupation with money-lending (which may no longer have been necessary) as well as the threat of them influencing the religion of the common people were officially given as reasons.
The Tudor Dynasty
A Civil War known as the Wars of the Roses ended with the accession to the throne of Henry Tudor who became Henry-7 in 1485. The symbol of the Tudor Dynasty and henceforth of England was a red and white rose surrounded by green petals. This according to the Zorah symbolized all the Tribes of Israel! The Zorah is a mystical Jewish book of great authority. It appeared in Spain in the 1200s though it was based largely on sources from centuries beforehand. Many Religious Jews consider this work inspired, at least to some degree.

Jacob (aka Israel) Kept the Law of Tithing: Jacob linked his tithing to a Return to the House of his Father. We can do the same.
Genesis (NIV) 28:
18 Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it.
19 He called that place Bethel, though the city used to be called Luz.
20 Then Jacob made a vow, saying, 'If God will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give me food to eat and clothes to wear
21 so that I return safely to my father's household, then the LORD will be my God
22 and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be God's House, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth.'
Malachi 3:
10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,
That there may be food in My house,
And try Me now in this,
Says the LORD of hosts,
'If I will not open for you the windows of heaven
And pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.
Proverbs 3:
9 Honor the LORD with your wealth
and with the first of all your produce,
10 so your barns will be filled with abundance,
and your vats will burst open with new wine.
