Re: Brit-Am Now no. 2130: Ten Tribes Studies
Shalom Brother Yair,
Liked the references to Sinim and Australia.
The Spanish rabbis and academics referred to the land as :
"Tierra Australis del Espiritu Santo" (Yes I am a fluent Spanish speaker.)
(Southern Land of the Holy Spirit/Ruarck Ha Kodesh)
I hope this is of help mate.
Shalom again and keep up the good work.
Brian

3. Mark Williams: Chief Commonwealth Rabbis Should be Informed of Brit-Am
Subject: Hey Yair. Here's a thought...
Shalom.
Have you considered sending some copies of your works to the amusingly
aptly named new Orthodox Chief Rabbi of the Commonwealth, _Ephraim_ Mirvis*?
Just an idea
*Who replaces the equally aptly named Lord _Sachs_

4. The Clouds, the Ten Tribes, and North America
In the talk by Glenn Beck equating the USA with the Ten Tribes
http://britam.org/beckon.html [Scroll Down to 2nd embedded video clip]
the clouds in US symbolism and around the head of the Statue of Liberty are likened to the Pillar of Cloud that went before the Israelites in their journey through the Wilderness.
Exodus 13:
21-22 By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people.
Numbers 14:
14 And they will tell the inhabitants of this land about it. They have already heard that you, O LORD, are with these people and that you, O Lord, have been seen face to face, that your cloud stays over them, and that you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.
Deuteronomy 1:
33 Who went in the way before you, to search you out a place to pitch your tents in, in fire by night, to shew you by what way ye should go, and in a cloud by day.
Psalms 99:
7 In a pillar of cloud He spoke to them; they kept His testimonies and the statute He gave them.
Nehemiah 9:
12 By day you led them with a pillar of cloud, and by night with a pillar of fire to give them light on the way they were to take.
Nehemiah 9:
19 "Because of your great compassion you did not abandon them in the desert. By day the pillar of cloud did not cease to guide them on their path, nor the pillar of fire by night to shine on the way they were to take.
The concept of clouds is also linked with the locations of the Ten Tribes, and with North America
cf.
Clouds of Darkness
One of the Three Places of Exile recalled by the Talmud
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/rabbi/sambation/clouds.html
Extracts:
Whatmore ("Insulae Britannicae", 1913) showed that in Classical Literature the Islands of Britain were considered the edge of the world, the last section of Scythia, and associated with Cimmerian darkness. The same characteristics were ascribed to Scandinavia and then later Scandinavian writers said the same things about North America wherein Viking Scandinavians attempted to settle!
   Leif Ericson in the 1100s CE visited the coasts of North America and an effort at colonization was made. A Chronicle of the event gave the names Helluland, Markland, and Vinland to the countries visited. Whatmore equated "Markland" with North America16. After drawing parallels between the Danish Norwegian word "merke" and the Russian "mrak", he said that the name "Markland" (given to North America) signified DARKNESS.
   The Scandinavian Chronicler was continuing the Classical tradition and Whatmore concludes that "Markland" (i.e. the name given to North America),
   "is quite as likely an echo of the dark Kimmerian world"17.
   Another word for "dark" in Hebrew is Kedar. "Kedar" was a son of Ishmael (Genesis 25:13). Part of the sons of Kedar assimilated amongst the Arabs, others became the Kidarites who were once important in Central Asia. Descendants of Kedar also reached North America and intermarried with the Red Indians.

God bless all of you,

7. Why the USA Needs Israel!!Â
http://www.britam.org/USNeedsI.html
This article was written some time ago. Nevertheless its message is still relevant.
It happens that "old" message may be initially overlooked and then later rediscovered. Maybe this deserves to be one of them?
Contents:
1. Introduction.
2. The Prototypical Intended Role of Joseph in Egypt.
3. Judah and the State of Israel.
4. The State of Israel is PREPARING THE WAY for all the other Tribes!
5. The USA is Manasseh. The USA is the Pioneer Ground-Breaking Force for all of the Ten Tribes.
6. Manasseh will be the first to return.
7. The USA Needs to Support the State of Israel because by Doing so it justifies its own reason for being and comes closer to realizing
its Biblical destiny.
8. Judah Needs Joseph therefore Joseph Should Stay "Close".
9. The Blessings and Tasks of Joseph.
Extracts:
... today the USA supports the State of Israel and that it has been doing so for some time.
The US supports Israel for numerous reasons. ...In our generation, amongst Americans there is a '"gut" feeling of brotherhood, of sympathy and identification for the Israelis.
In addition Israel is pro-American: Israel gives America a permanent foothold in this region; Jews and Israelis contribute in numerous ways to US pre-eminence; Israel is western and similar to America; ..
Perhaps the most important factor explaining why the USA supports Israel to the degree that it does is the belief in God and the Bible shared by many mainstream Americans. The State of Israel is identified with Biblical Promises and the Bible Message. Loyalty to Israel means Keeping faith with the Almighty. God is a Zionist. HE says so in the Bible.
The USA should realize that one of the reasons it reached its present position is in order to help the State of Israel.
This in our time is one of the main tasks of America. This is its job. This is why it is what it is and has what it has got.
Some of the reward (as explained below) has already been received in advance. With payment comes obligation.
You eat the meal, pay the bill and leave a tip. Next time around the food may be even better.
This is the will of God according to the Bible.
There are many Bible-Believers in the USA today who are aware that the Almighty wants the USA to help Israel.
Most of these Bible-Believers are not consciously aware that America is Joseph. For other reasons however they do know that the USA has a duty towards the State of Israel.
There are web-sites showing parallels between changes in the US attitude towards Israel and disasters that occurred.
We believe that this may be something worth noticing and taking to heart.
The English-speaking peoples are Joseph.
Joseph will be the first to be redeemed (Rabbaynu Bachye, Me'am Lo'ez to Deuteronomy 33:16).
This applies especially to elements from Mannaseh (Midrash Pirkei DeRabbi Eliezer, ch17; Yalkut Shimeoni 2:141 cf. Psalms 60; 1-Samuel 31:8-13).
The USA is Manasseh. Manasseh will be the first to benefit from the preparation of Judah and therefore should help at present.
Abraham was to become a "GREAT AND MIGHTY NATION" in order that ALL THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH SHALL BEÂ BLESSED IN HIM and that he do JUSTICE AND JUDGMENT...THAT THE LORD MAY BRING UPON ABRAHAM THAT WHICH HE HAS SPOKEN OF HIM. (Genesis 18:18-19).
Becoming great and mighty was a prerequisite for being able to fulfill the concomitant duties of doing Justice and judgment and then receiving even greater blessings.
....The Rabbi says that in order for Judah to bring on the Messiah, to help the Messiah come, and realize the promise given to his seed ('MY SERVANT DAVID SHALL BE THEIR PRINCE FOR EVER') Judah must first do as the Patriarch Judah did when he CAME NEAR UNTO Joseph and he acknowledged the authority of Joseph and initially was influenced from Joseph. ...Judah needs the Return of Samaria (Manasseh and Israel) both physically and spiritually for the sake of Its own Redemption (Ezekiel 16:53-55 37:15-28).
...Judah will teach Joseph (Ezekiel 16:61); The Ten Tribes will Return and Help Judah Rehabilitate the Land (Ezekiel 16:55) of Greater Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates. The Rest of Judah will then Return.
Sefat Emet (Commentary to Genesis, "YeYechi", Chapters 47:28Â to 50):
Judah said to Joseph. "OH MY LORD, LET THY SERVANT, I  PRAY THEE" [Genesis 44:18] . ... The Sefat Emat says that Judah was hinting to Joseph that his power of overlordship was "in me" i.e. in Judah. In other words Joseph was able to rule by virtue of the exertions of Judah.
... Joseph (representing secular success) is enabled to succeed by virtue of the Torah embodied by Judah.
Rabbi Kook said:
# There was a mixing-in by which a portion of the Israelites became assimilated amongst the peoples and swallowed up by them. ... [Their descendants] will be yearning and striving to declare the name of Israel on their inheritance. This will be a goal they will feel a need to achieve. ##
