I think the Ten Tribes or the Western European peoples have their trial coming just like the Holocaust came for the Jewish people. As the Bible says though they be as the sand of the sea, a remnant will remain. Also demographically they have stopped having children.
@JudySnyder-dv5ld
Thank you for your research.
@michaelmessenger5742 All 613 mitzvot are to be kept/fulfilled by HaShem's holy ones , those who seek to understand the spiritual aspects of the whole Torah, including Kabbalah .. when the 3rd temple is here, sure we will also fulfill many of the commands in the flesh,, but until then, we fulfill the Mitzvot through rectification of our souls and understanding the spiritual Torah in our daily life .. if a certain mitzvah does not apply to you in the physical realm (perhaps your a man and female impurity laws don't apply), their mystical meanings still apply. seek to understand the mystical meaning of the Mitzvah, and you thus fulfill that mitzvah in the spiritual realm. the most obvious of which is "sacrifice and offering" , if your not keeping that commandment daily, your missing out. Your stealing food from God if your not participating in this Mitzvah as you partake of the food given to you . and many more examples can be given
@scruffyscrubs5468
Hilarious that people think they are descendents from the Lost Tribes. That's thousands of years ago mixed with goy! Not everybody would be. Are we so sure that the Lost Tribes is all physical? Perhaps it is soul incarnate. We know tribes scattered to many places but truly, there is no individual proof as of yet.

3. More Proof from Names etc, may be possible!
re

@Saturne98
can we be more precise about the representation of cities for example the location of the tribe of Reuben included several cities and place so if the tribe of Reuben geographically represents France today places and cities belonging to this tribe in the Bible would have their spatial reality in the France .city forest land etc
Brit-Am Reply:
This is a possibility. In our work "The Tribes" we compared the Names of the Tribes and the 70 Tribal Clans with those of Tribes and Peoples we believe were descended from Israelites. A correspondence was found. It should be possible to go beyond there but it involves much more work.

4. Yom Kippur Message.
Tishrei, 5785 - 2024.
Adapted (with slight additions) from:
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/ca/free.html
https://hebrewnations.com/articles/ca/kippur.html
Yom Kippur follows after Rosh HaShannah (New Years Day) which fell on the first day of Tishrei. The name of the month of Tishrei is from the root TeSheR related to the word Teshurah meaning gift. On this month we have been judged and given the rest of our lives back as a free gift. Let us take advantage of it and use the gift well for the glory of God Almighty and the Israelite Nations.
This day, Yom Kippur, is a Fastday for Observant Jews and for most Jews in the State of Israel.
Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) is mentioned in the Bible.
It was given to the Hebrews, or rather to those of the Hebrews who knew who they were and were known as such.
This means in our time to the Jews.
In the future this will change but we have not reached the future yet.
Meanwhile we may all still lean those aspects of the Biblical message pertinent to us.
Leviticus 23:
26 AND THE LORD SPOKE TO MOSES, SAYING: 27 ALSO THE TENTH DAY OF THIS SEVENTH MONTH SHALL BE THE DAY OF ATONEMENT. IT SHALL BE A HOLY CONVOCATION FOR YOU; YOU SHALL AFFLICT YOUR SOULS, AND OFFER AN OFFERING MADE BY FIRE TO THE LORD. 28 YOU SHALL DO NO CUSTOMARY WORK ON IT; AND YOU SHALL OFFER AN OFFERING MADE BY FIRE TO THE LORD.
Yom Kippur is a DAY OF ATONEMENT.
All Israelites need to repent. Do good and good will come unto you. Do bad and evil will be befall you. It may be said that good should be done because by definition it is the right thing to do. This however is not enough. The Almighty created us as human beings with legitimate needs and wants.
God HIMSELF also promised us that if we obey HIM HE will reward us in a physical material sense as well as in a spiritual one.
We are justified in bribing our physical beings that if we are good we shall be rewarded. This is how we are made and it is a legitimate consideration.
It can be seen quite openly that most of the time most good people have it "good". In the long run they live longer, healthier, and happier. They also, relatively speaking, often have larger happier and healthier families.
God is good.
The same person being good has it better than they would have if they were bad.
There are exceptions. The Book of Job also speaks of exceptions. The hero of the Book of Job was an exception. Even though he was righteous there was a period when he was made to endure trials and tribulations.
Nevertheless the principle still holds.
Doing good brings reward.
Evil incurs punishment.
If we have sinned and deserve to be punished through Repentance we may mitigate the punishment or even avoid it altogether and receive a blessing instead.
We need to repent, and to make ourselves better people as well as we can.

5. Answer to Quora Query:
Were the Israelites actually set free, or is it a mere fictional story?
https://www.quora.com/Were-the-Israelites-actually-set-free-or-is-it-a-mere-fictional-story/answer/Yair-Davidiy
Illustration shows 'Retenu' possibly from the Israelite Tribe of Reuben bringing gifts to Egypt.
Here is a closer view at a section of this picture:
Where the Israelites in Egypt and later delivered from it as the Bible tells us? The Bible says it was so therefore such it was. The Bible is a God-given text and therefore must be true.
In addition to that the Bible has proven itself. If someone brings an argument or piece of evidence that seems to contradict Scripture (as sometimes happens) then further examination and more investigation invariably shows the Bible was correct. Concerning the Exodus and its historicity we may have a problem of chronology. Present day dating of events may be mistaken.
Nevertheless, working (perhaps mistakenly) with academic understanding we have an earlier period in Egyptian History says around 1500 BCE in conventional terms in which Egypt is controlled by the Hyksos who are associated with the Habiru (Apiru) who are later identified as Hebrews. The Hyksos and Habiru are also characterized by a "four-room" type house. This house disappears from Egypt and re-appears in Canaan after the Hebrew conquest. The Hyksos used Hebrew names such as "Jacob." The Hyksos according to the Egyptians were overthrown and expelled. The previous widespread uses of Hebrew slaves was recorded. The Egyptians later identify the Hebrews in Canaan with the Hyksos. The Hyksos are identified by Egyptologists either with a foreign people from Canaan who settled in Egypt, or they were an Egyptian elite that adopted a Canaanite type culture. They were defeated in war and driven out of the country. Either way it fits the Biblical Story. Egyptian records corroborate the plague and a hiatus during with the Hyksos and Habiru disappear and new Egyptian native elements take over. Meanwhile in Canaan the Hebrew replace many of the locals and destroy most of the cities. This is in accordance with the Biblical tale and archaeological findings. Egyptian records often contradict each other. They are less reliable than the Bible.
Compare these extracts from Wikipedia, October, 2024:
# In the Aegyptiaca, a history of Egypt written by the Greco-Egyptian priest and historian Manetho in the 3rd century BC, the term Hyksos is used ethnically to designate people of probable West Semitic, Levantine origin.#
# Josephus gives the name as meaning "shepherd kings" or "captive shepherds" in his Contra Apion (Against Apion), where he describes the Hyksos as Jews as they appeared in the Hellenistic Egyptian historian Manetho.[23][24] ... The Hyksos' personal names indicate that they spoke a Western Semitic language and "may be called for convenience sake Canaanites."#
Hyksos - Wikipedia
Academic and Archaeological studies do not confirm the Biblical story but neither do they nullify it. The Academics provide insights of value despite drastically contradicting each other. The Biblical Story enables us to resolve the Contradictions. Rabbinical Midrashim also at times
provide insights of value on these issues.

6. Psalm - Tehilim (TCT Tanakh - Chabad) 63.
1 A SONG OF DAVID WHEN HE WAS IN THE DESERT OF JUDAH.
2 O GOD, YOU ARE MY GOD, I SEEK YOU. MY SOUL THIRSTS FOR YOU; MY FLESH LONGS FOR YOU, IN AN ARID AND THIRSTY LAND, WITHOUT WATER.
3 AS I SAW YOU IN THE SANCTUARY, [SO DO I LONG] TO SEE YOUR STRENGTH AND YOUR GLORY.
4 FOR YOUR KINDNESS IS BETTER THAN LIFE; MY LIPS WILL PRAISE YOU.
5 THEN I SHALL BLESS YOU IN MY LIFETIME; IN YOUR NAME I SHALL LIFT MY HANDS.
6 [AS] WITH CHOICE FOODS AND FAT, MY SOUL WILL BE SATED, WHEN MY MOUTH PRAISES WITH EXPRESSIONS OF SONG.
7 WHEN I REMEMBER YOU ON MY COUCH; IN THE WATCHES I MEDITATE ABOUT YOU.
8 FOR YOU WERE MY HELP, AND IN THE SHADOW OF YOUR WINGS I SHALL PRAISE.
9 MY SOUL HAS CLUNG AFTER YOU; YOUR RIGHT HAND HAS SUPPORTED ME.
10 BUT THEY SEEK MY SOUL TO MAKE IT DESOLATE; MAY THEY COME INTO THE DEPTHS OF THE EARTH.
11 MAY HE BE DRAGGED BY THE SWORD; THEY WILL BE THE PORTION OF FOXES.
12 AND MAY THE KING REJOICE WITH GOD; MAY ALL WHO SWEAR BY HIM BOAST, FOR THE MOUTH OF THOSE WHO SPEAK LIES WILL BE CLOSED.

7. Some English Words with Hebrew Sources. Letter E.3.
ERR Old French errer "go astray, lose one's way; make a mistake; transgress." cf. Hebrew "aer" trouble disturb.
Trouble, disturb
ERROR See ERR, also Hebrew "orayr, era," challenge, protest, upset. Hebrew "Irur", in need of correction.
EVE, EVENING Old English aefen cf. Hebrew "erev" evening.
ERRANT see See ERR.
EVEN Old English efen "level," cf. Old Saxon eban,
Hebrew "even" stone, rock, weight, valley (topography),
Mattatiyahu CLARK, 'Etymological Dictionary of Biblical Hebrew, Based on the Commentaries of Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch,' USA, 1999,
links this Hebrew word to the root 'BON, bayin' connoting mediate.
It is interesting that in Old English there was a related word EMN meaning "even, equal, like, level, just, impartial, true." This too may be related to the Hebrew. In the Hebrew Bible the terms "amen" and "even" meaning "valley," interchange.
We also have the Hebrew word root AMN indicating truth, affirmation, faith, trust. This is where we get the word Amen at the end of prayers from.
EVER Old English aefre "ever, at any time, always;" cf. Hebrew "aver," past, gone by., over.

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.
