1. Being a True Ephraimite of the Lost Tribes of Israel.
In our opinion people who are convinced they are descended from Israelites should consider themselves as belonging to the Lost Ten Tribes.
This means living among others such as themselves, living upright, healthy, and successful lives as well as they can and where possibly spreading conscious of Lost Ten Tribes ancestry.
It would help to have others like themselves living close by and for them to be in contact.
"Ephraimites" who wish to live in the Land of Israel at the present time may be missing the mark.
They may in effect by saying that they went to live among Jews, be accepted as equal to Jews, but not obliged to Keep the Law in the same way if at all.
In other words they virtually want to say that they wish to be Jewish, or equal to Jews, living among Jews, but on their own terms.
Whether this is a legitimate desire or not is one thing.
Trying to pretend it is something else is another.
It is not necessarily connected per se to belief in the Lost Ten Tribes being in the west.

2. Issachar in Finland - Valuable Note by Steve Phillips.
# Tartessos (in Southwest Spain) is the Hebrew word "Tarshish,"
where the first occurrence of the letter "shin" (sh) has
become a t (T) in transliteration - hence Tart-iss-os. This is in the same way
that the name Bashan, the region in northern Israel, is transliterated as
Batanaian by both Josephus and Ptolemy. The Attacorae who settled in
Finland, a people called Tochari by Ptolemy, were likewise Issacharites.

4. Why did Israel or Jacob cross his arms when blessing Joseph's children? Why did he place his right hand on Ephraim and his left hand on Manasseh?
Brit-Am Answer:
Joseph brought his two sons to Jacob (also known as Israel) to be blessed. Manasseh was the first born and Ephraim the younger.
Genesis 48:
13 AND JOSEPH TOOK THEM BOTH, EPHRAIM IN HIS RIGHT HAND TOWARD ISRAEL'S LEFT HAND, AND MANASSEH IN HIS LEFT HAND TOWARD ISRAEL'S RIGHT HAND, AND BROUGHT THEM NEAR UNTO HIM.
14 AND ISRAEL STRETCHED OUT HIS RIGHT HAND, AND LAID IT UPON EPHRAIM'S HEAD, WHO WAS THE YOUNGER, AND HIS LEFT HAND UPON MANASSEH'S HEAD, GUIDING HIS HANDS WITTINGLY; FOR MANASSEH WAS THE FIRSTBORN.
The Bible (Genesis 48:8-17) tells us that Joseph brought his two sons Ephraim and Manasseh to receive a blessing from Jacob.
Manasseh was the older and Joseph placed him to his left facing the right-hand side of Jacob.
Ephraim was the younger so Joseph placed him to his right facing the left-hand side of Jacob.
Jacob however crossed his hands over. He placed his righthand on the head of Ephraim and his left on the hand of Manasseh. He placed Ephraim before Manasseh. He did not however change the position of the boys. Manasseh remained on his right and Ephraim on his left. There are Rabbinical explanations that say the crossing over of the hands did not change the relative importance of the two but it did change the time schedule. From now on Ephraim was to receive his blessing BEFORE Manasseh.
The "Bnei Yissachar" (Rabbi Tzvi Elimelech Shapira of Dinov, 1784-1840) writes:
# WHY DID JACOB NOT COMMAND THAT MANASSEH BE PLACED ON HIS LEFT SIDE AND EPHRAIM ON HIS RIGHT?
WHY DID JACOB HAVE TO CROSS HIS HANDS OVER?
THE TRUTH IS THAT MANASSEH IS THE FIRSTBORN!
THIS IS WHY IT SAYS "GUIDING HIS HAND WITTINGLY" (GENESIS 48:14). HE DID NOT CHANGE MANASSEH OVER TO THE LEFT SIDE) FOR IN TRUTH MANASSEH IS THE FIRSTBORN AND THE MOST IMPORTANT BUT HE PUT EPHRAIM BEFORE MANASSEH CONCERNING THE CHRONOLOGICAL PRECEDENCE #.
Rabbi Fishel Mael ("Hashevetim," a Hebrew-language work, p. 490, printed in Baltimore, USA) based on the above and other sources comments:
# THE ORDER OF PLACING OF THE SONS WAS IMPORTANT BOTH IN REGARDS TO THEIR POSITIONING CONCERNING JOSEPH AND IN THAT CONCERNING JACOB. CONCERNING JOSEPH .... EPHRAIM IS THE ONE WHO FULFILLS HIS PLACE (i.e. the place of Joseph) AND MOST CONTINUES HIS PATH ... THEREFORE JOSEPH SET EPHRAIM ON HIS RIGHT-HAND SIDE TO SHOW THAT EPHRAIM IS THE MAIN PRINCIPLE OF HIS MIGHT AND THE CONTINUER OF HIS PATH... HOWEVER CONCERNING JACOB IT IS JUST THE OPPOSITE. MANASSEH IS CLOSER ... TO THE PATH OF JACOB... JACOB HOWEVER GUIDED HIS HANDS WITTINGLY TO INDICATE THAT THE GREATNESS OF MANASSEH WOULD NOT BE REVEALED SO SOON ... JACOB AGREED ONLY THAT MANASSEH REMAIN AT HIS RIGHT-HAND SIDE FOR HE IS DESTINED TO COMPLETE THE QUALITY ...OF JACOB HIMSELF IN THE BUILDING OF THE THIRD TEMPLE #.
In Summary:
Ephraim - left-side of Jacob, right-hand side of Joseph, a Continuation of Joseph. Sooner to become great.
Manasseh- right side of Jacob, left-hand side of Joseph, a Continuation of Jacob. Later to become great.
We identify Ephraim with Britain and its daughters, Manasseh with the USA. Descendants of Jacob in the USA are nick-named 'Yank' which means Jacob. Historically the greatness of the British preceded that of the USA.

Palestine exists to oppose Israel.
The Palestinians descend from Arab populations who were in the area and close-by alongside relative newcomers who came in at a later date. The newer elements were from all over the Muslim World.
Their movement to Palestine had been encouraged by the Ottoman Empire. Later British and Zionist investment in the Land created a need for labor so many more moved in from Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, and other areas.
The idea of a national identity as distinct from Muslim self-identification did not exist. Even in our time it is, or was until recently, much weaker than expected. The Mufti who was the religious and ideological leader of Muslims in Palestine under the Mandate
was responsible more than any other in creating a "Palestinian" national identification in the modern sense. The Mufti was associated with the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt. Their ideology was similar to that of the Nazis.
Some of them idolized Hitler and still do.
Theyadvoated extermination of the Jews. This movement is also that of the ruling clique of Qatar and is influential throughout the Arab world.
Beginning with the Mufti and continuing with the others there is a pattern of priorities in which killing Jews takes first place. They may care about themselves, their families, their compatriots, to some degree but not necessarily more than enmity to Jewish existence.
The basically non-Muslim Alawi government in Syria in 2011 back by Russia engaged in Civil War against its Sunni-Muslim majority. Millions were displaced and about 5 million fled Syria and are now refugees.
The world does not care because Israel is not involved.
ISIS was one of the Muslim Brother offshoots. In 2016 Isis committed acts of extermination against the Yezidi Arab minority.

The world does not care because Israel is not involved.
Now some of the European nations have recognized "Palestine" despite the opposition of Israel. Why is that? Do they really care for "Palestine?"
They may or may not be otherwise good people but if Israel.
or the Jews were in need would they help them?
In the past some of these nations may have had a positive influence in certain areas. Their present anti-Israeli attitudes however suggest moral decrepitude and general
national generation. Sweden is the Rape Capital of the World. All the others are not necessarily models for emulation.
By backing Palestine against Israel they are the ones supporting genocidal intentions.

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 FATHERS HOUSEHOLD, THEN THE LORD WILL BE MY GOD
22 AND THIS STONE THAT I HAVE SET UP AS A PILLAR WILL BE GODS 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.
