I saw this topic being talked about and thought it deserves its own thread:

"British Israelism (also called Anglo-Israelism) is a pseudoarchaeological belief that the people of the British Isles are "genetically, racially, and linguistically the direct descendants" of the Ten Lost Tribes of ancient Israel. With roots in the 16th century, British Israelism was inspired by several 19th-century English writings such as John Wilson's 1840 Our Israelitish Origin. Various British Israelite organisations were set up throughout the British Empire as well as in America from the 1870s; a number of these organisations are active independently as of the early 21st century. In America, the idea gave rise to the Christian Identity movement."

Is this summary from Wikipedia accurate? Is BI a pseudoarchaeological belief? Also there's another related thread for those interested:

The Heraldic Symbolism of the Unicorn on the British Coat-of-Arms.

The British Coat-of-Arms is the Coat-of-Arms of the 12 tribed Kingdom of Israel and Christ their Rightful KING.

1574365649536.png

The TRUE Israel People have, on their "Coat-of-Arms", a Lion and a Unicorn which is shown as a white horse" rampant" with one horn. The amber Lion "rampant" on the left-side is the emblem of the two-tribed "House ofJudah" and the Unicorn or white Wild-Ox"rampant" on the right-side is the emblem of the ten-tribed "House of Israel", collectively making the 12-tribed "Kingdom of Israel".

The word British is Hebrew. It means "the People of the Covenant"or in other words "the People Israel", whose written Constitution; under that Covenant, that they have rejected to their own loss; is written in the Bible (Israel's Book) that they still swear on to tell the Truth, but whose Constitution, under which there are no poor people, is then foolishly rejected by almost everyone, in favour of inferior and unjust, man-made legislation and economics which cause poverty and therefore also crime brought about by deprivation and desperation.

The Israelite tribe of Joseph (of the coat of many Colours/Coats-of-Arms) to whom Jacob/Israel gave his new name Israel and his Unicorn-Emblem (Deuteronomy 33:16-17) and the "Coat of Many Colours (many Coats-of-Arms*)", is, in fact, divided into two:- Ephraim andManasseh.

Deuteronomy 33:16 And for the precious things of the earth and fullness thereof, and [for] the good Will of Him that dwelt in the bush: let ["The Blessing"] come upon the head of Joseph, and the CROWN upon the head of him [that was] separated from his brethren (Gen. 49:10 & 22-24).
33:17 His glory [is like] the firstling of his bullock, and his horns[are like] the horns of UNICORNS: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they [are] the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they [are] the thousands of Manasseh.

* To see the "Colours" from whichJoseph's coat was made, please read the Article/Booklet called "Gibraltar - British or Spanish? The TRUE Historical FACTS will surprise you"

Joseph had two sons, called Ephraim and Manasseh, whose descendants, today, are the English and English-Americans respectively and they are the TRUE Israel, because Jacob/Israel gave them alone the name Israel, and the sole Right to use the name Israel (Genesis 48:16):-

Genesis 48:16 The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless thelads; and let my name [Israel] be named on them (let Ephraim and Manassehbe called Israel), and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth. Note well that Jacob/Israel did not give his name Israel to Judah/Jew-dah or any of his other sons.

Abraham, Joseph's great-grandad, was told by God that, "in Isaac shall yourseed be called" (Genesis 21 v 12) - Isaac's sons - Saac's sons - Saxons. The British-English andthe English-Americans are Engel-o'-Saxons or Anglo-Saxons. God's Word is ever TRUE.

The Unicorn-white horse (Engel) represents the horse upon which God's Witnesses(Rev./Apoc. 1 v 5) (Isaiah 43 v 12; Rev./Apoc. 11:3) ride, as in Revelation/Apocalypse 19 v11. In England there are white horses that have been carved into hillsides, etc.

The Unicorn inScriptural Code-language:-

HORN is the code-word for kingdom.

UNICORN symbolizes a Unique horn - "One Kingdom , world without end" - God's Kingdom on Earth - soon.

On the Coat-of-Arms, the belt surrounding the shield; with which thepeople were to gird up their loins with great strength; has writtenon it, "Honi soit qui mal y pense".

"Honi soit qui mal y pense" is Old French and itis one of God's rules concerning His advice and Divine-Justice and means "Evil be to him who thinks it".

Under it, in French, is written "Dieu et Mon Droit" - "God and MyRight" - the Birth-Right of Israel (the British and related-nations), given to Ephraim - the Engel-ish.

The Unicorn (or Wild-ox - the Engel) has the Crown of Israel aroundits neck so that it is not possible to remove it. The crown ischained to the words "Mon Droit", which means "My Right" and refers to the Birthright given to Ephraim, which, like the crown to which it and the Unicorn (Engel) is chained, can never be removed from Ephraim- the Engel-ish.

The Lion "rampant" represents the "House of Judah" wearing a crownthat can and will be removed, when Shiloh (from Ephraim) takes His Rightful* British Throne (Genesis 49:10, 22-24), soon, from the "House of Windsor", which is, like Elizabeth 2, descended from the "House of Judah" and the royal-line of David:-

Genesis 49:10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah [to Joseph], nor a law-giver from between his feet, UNTIL Shiloh comes [from Joseph-Ephraim v 22-24]; and unto him [shall] the gathering of the people [be].
49:22 Joseph [is] a fruitful bough, [even] a fruitful bough by awell; [whose] branches run over the wall:
49:23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot [at him], and hated him:
49:24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; (from THERE [is] The Shepherd, The [Corner] Stone of Israel - Daniel 2:34-5; 45)

* Ezekiel 21:26Thus saith the Lord "I AM"; Remove the diadem (sovereignty), and take off the crown: this [shall] not [be] the same: exalt [him that is] low (Line ofJudah/Zarah), and abase [him that is] high (Line of Judah/Pharez).
21:27 I will overturn (1), overturn (2), overturn (3), it: and it shall be no [more], [overturned] UNTIL he come whose Right it is; and (4) I will give it[him - Shiloh/Christ (Genesis 49 v 10)].

1. From Judah/Pharez in Jerusalem to Judah/Zarah (of the "Red Hand" - Genesis 38:28-30) at Tara, County Royal Meath, Ireland, constituting the abasing of the high ones (Pharez) and the exalting of the lowones (Zarah).
2. From Tara to Scotland and Fergus the Great.
3. From Scotland to England, with Edward "Longshanks".

4. The fourth overturn began on 25/12/50 when Ian Hamilton and friends kindly removed the Stone of Destiny from Westminster Abbey and took it from David, who was from both the Judah line of David (Gen. 49:10) and also was called prince David, who had become king Edward the 8th and outlived his stand-in - George the 6th, fulfilling, exactly, Christ's own prophecy to his Apostle John in his Revelation to John:-

22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the communities. I am the root (source) and the successor of David (Ezekiel 21:27), [and] the bright and Morning Star.

The Silver Lion standing firmly on all four feet - Supreme on top ofthe king's crowned-helmet and wearing a crown higher than all theothers, symbolizes Christ the Rightful King of Israel, who on the Second-Coming, as Prophesied by God, will use a new body from the tribe of Ephraim - the Engel-ish.

The helmet itself with the king's crown on it and Christ standing upon the top of it, to guide the wearer's thoughts, symbolizes the"Helmet of Salvation" referred to in Paul's letter to the Ephesians in chapter 6 verse 17.

Ephesians 6:17 "And take the Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God (John 1:14):"

The shield which is surrounded by the belt, shows, in the bottom left-hand quarter, the Harp of David who was king of Israel and whose harp has been adopted by Ireland, the inhabitants of which are a mixture of Danites and Judah/Zarahites of the Red hand (Gen. 38:28, 30) that is superimposed on the "Star of David", which is superimposed on the "Cross of Sacrifice", on the Northern Ireland flag. The Irish people have been wrongfully divided by their "blind" priests with their Organised, Ritualised Religions even though they are both descended from Jacob's sons and are therefore both Israelite nations and brothers and both claim allegiance to Christ.

The shield also shows, in the top right-hand quarter, the Red lion"rampant" of Scotland, which country is named after Scota theirmother, who was a princess from Judah/Zarah of the Red hand. TheScots are descended from the same stock as the Northern Irish peopleof Judah/Zarah, who migrated from Ireland to Scotland.

The lion emblem, as already explained, is the emblem of Judah, who had twin sons called Pharez, and, Zarah of the Red hand. Therefore it is only logical that the lion emblem, when used by Judah/Zarah of the Red hand, should also be Red in colour.

The shield shows, in the top left-hand and bottom right-handquarters, six lions "couchant" symbolizing England;Wales* and all the young lions of the British Commonwealth.

* Wales also adopted the Harp of David as an emblem and their national musical-instrument. Another "Sign" of the British-Hebrew/Israelite ancestry and heritage is the fact that, as in Hebrew, Berit or Brit means "Covenant" in the Welsh language.

the master Rene Guenon in his masterpiece
'THE REIGN OF QUANTITY
AND THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES' have a chapter entitled 'THE DECEPTIVNESS OF PROPHECIES'

THE MIXTURE OF TRUTH AND FALSEHOOD met within the 'pseudo-traditions' of modern manufacture is found again in the so-called 'prophecies' that have been propagated and exploited in every way, especially in the last few years, for ends of which the least that can be said is that they are highly enigmatic.

The way in which this group of predictions is presented by the 'seers' in question, who are very often the subjects of 'suggestions', 3 makes a near approach to certain very dark and 'underground' matters, the astonishing ramifications of which, at least since the beginning of the nineteenth century, would be particularly interesting to follow for anyone who wanted to write a history of those times, a history would certainly be very different from the one that is taught 'officially'. But needless to say there can be no question of going into the detail of these matters, and it must suffice simply to have mentioned this very complex affair, which has obviously been intentionally confused in all its aspects;4 for it could not have been passed over in silence without leaving too big a blank in the list of the principal elements characteristic of the modern period, since it constitutes one of the most significant symptoms of the second phase of anti-traditional action.

The predictions used in this way are more particularly those that are based on certain forms of traditional knowledge, and then it is their obscurity that is chiefly taken advantage of for the purpose in view;5 some of the Biblical prophecies themselves are for the same reason the objects of this kind of 'tendentious' interpretation, the authors of which are incidentally often acting in good faith, but can only be regarded· as the victims of 'suggestion and as being made use of to apply 'suggestion' to others.It is as if there were a sort of highly contagious psychic 'epidemic', but it fits too neatly into the plan of subversion to be 'spontaneous'; on the contrary, like all other manifestations of the modern disorder (including the revolutions, which the ingenuous also believe to be 'spontaneous') it necessarily presupposes a conscious will at its starting-point. The worst form of blindness would be to see nothing more in all this but a mere question of 'fashion' without real importance.

Use is also made, along with appropriate interpretations, of predictions more suspect in origin but nonetheless fairly old; these were perhaps not originally made in order to be of use in present circumstances, although the powers of subversion had evidently acquired some considerable influence at the time of their origin (the time in question being that at which the modern deviation may be said to have begun, from the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries), and it is not impossible that those powers then had in view, not only some more special and immediate objective, but also the preparation for a work not intended to be accomplished until after a long interval. 8 This preparation has in fact never ceased: it has been carried out in other modalities, of which the 'suggestion' applied to modern 'seers' and the organization of 'apparitions' of a very unorthodox kind represent an aspect in which the direct intervention of subtle influences is most clearly shown; but this aspect is not the only one, and, even when it is a question of predictions apparently manufactured 'from start to finish', similar influences may very well come into play to no less an extent, firstly for the very reason that their original inspiration emanates from a 'counter-initiatic' source, and secondly because of the nature of the elements that are taken to serve as 'supports' to their elaboration.
These last words are written with an example in mind that is quite astonishing, as much in itself as in the success it has had in many quarters; for those reasons it deserves rather more than a mere mention: the example is that of the so-called 'prophecies of the Great Pyramid', widely disseminated in England and thence to the whole world for ends that are perhaps in part political, but which certainly go beyond politics in the ordinary sense of the word. They are closely linked to another piece of work undertaken in order to persuade the English that they are the descendants of the 'lost tribes of Israel', but here again it would be impossible to go into details without getting involved in developments that would be out of place here. However that may be, here is the gist of the matter in a few words: by measuring, in a manner not wholly free from arbitrariness (all the more so because nobody is in fact quite sure about the measures actually used by the ancient Egyptians), the various parts of the corridors and chambers of the Great Pyramid,9 an attempt has been made to discover 'prophecies' in the form of correspondences between the numbers thus obtained and the dates of history. There is in this an absurdity so manifest that one cannot but wonder how it is that nobody seems to notice it; it only shows the extent to which our contemporaries are victims of 'suggestion', for even supposing that the constructors of the Pyramid really did build some sort of 'prophecies' into it, there are two things that would on the whole be plausible: either that the 'prophecies', which would necessarily have to be based on some knowledge of cyclic laws, should be related to the history of the world in general and of humanity, or that they should be adapted so as to deal more particularly with Egypt; but in fact neither turns out to be the case, for all the information extracted is in a form related to the point of view of Judaism in the first place, and of Christianity in the second, so that the only logical conclusion would be that the Pyramid is not an Egyptian monument at all, but a 'Judea-Christian' monument! This alone should be enough to put this unlikely story into its proper place, but it is worth adding that the whole is conceived in accordance with a so-called 'chronology' of the Bible that is highly contestable and conforms to the narrowest and most Protestant 'literalism', doubtless because the material had to be adapted to the special mentality of the environment in which it was to be chiefly circulated in the first place. Many other curious features could be noted: thus it appears that no date since the beginning of the Christian era can have been of sufficient interest to be recorded before that of the invention of railways; if that were so one would have to believe that these ancient builders brought a very modern perspective to bear on their appreciation of the importance of events; in this appears the element of the grotesque never lacking in that sort of thing, and it is precisely that which betrays their real origin: the devil is no doubt very clever, but he can never help being ridiculous in one way or another!

But this is still not all: from time to time, on the strength of the 'prophecies of the Great Pyramid' or of other predictions, and as a result of calculations of which the basis is never very clearly defined, it is announced that such and such an exact date will mark 'the entry of humanity into a new era' or else 'the coming of a spiritual renewal' (we shall see later on how this must really be understood); several of these dates are already past, and it does not appear that anything very notable has happened; but what does all that sort of thing really signify? In fact, it is just another way of making use of predictions (additional, that is, to their use for increasing the disorder of our times by broadcasting seeds of trouble and disorganization), and perhaps not the least important, for it turns them into an instrument of direct suggestion, thus contributing to the effective determination of the course of certain future events; for instance, to take a simple and easily understood example, does anyone believe that the repeated announcement of a revolution in a particular country at a particular time will not assist those who have an interest in its breaking out at that time? Underlying the present situation is the fact that certain people want to create a 'state of mind' favorable to the realization of 'something' that is part of their plans; this 'something' can no doubt be modified by the action of contrary influences, but they hope that their methods will serve to bring it about a little sooner or a little later. It remains to be shown more exactly to what this 'pseudo-spiritual' enterprise is leading, and it is necessary to say, without meaning to be in any way 'pessimistic' (all the more so because, as has been explained on other occasions, 'optimism' and 'pessimism' are opposed sentimental attitudes which as such, must remain wholly outside the strictly traditional point of view adopted here), that the outlook for the fairly near future is anything but reassuring.

Sorry I'm not able to respond to all of your post, but still want to reply. I read the Wiki entry and a few other sites and have to say it isn't my thing. If modern Britons are descendants of the Israelites they are far enough distant relatives for it to be a meaningless connection. I do commend the underlying ideals, that we all can choose to be children of God. People should move toward holiness and righteousness no matter the form.

I've been much more interested in the Afrocentric perspective of searching history, and Afro-Asiatic roots of the ancient cultures of the East. Investigating proto-Hebrew and Arabic this map shows the distribution of other Afro-Asiatic languages:



For authentic research into the descendants of Israel I recommend this small paper entitled- "The Ark of the Covenant: Evidence Supporting the Ethiopian Traditions".

The writing is exciting. Leeman begins by explaining the history of OT related archaeological study, that until now its been funded and focused primarily on the Levant (which has been highly disappointing with almost no corroborating evidence). Newer theories have considered south-western Arabia as a possible location of a Solomonic Kingdom but there remains a heavy prejudice in academic and religious institutions against honest inquiry.

In Ethiopia they have a tribe called "Beta (House of) Israel" that trace their history to the tribe of Dan. There is a document known as the Sheba-Menelik Cycle containing parts dated to before the 6th Century BC. The most inscriptional evidence of the Cycle is from two Sabean incense burners that describe a Kingdom inhabited by a Semitic and Cushitic population. The inscriptions at Adi Kaweh are the oldest mention of the Hebrew people.

There are unique characteristics of the Beta Israel. Their culture (and contemporary Christianity) is centered around the Ark of the Covenant and a form of Torah/Orit that is believed to be older (also more simple) than the common Jewish version. An interesting note is that the term for "ark" in Geez is "tabot", a word one scholar believes came from the Median area of Arabia c. 900 BC.

As I've said to @bible_student, I find it slightly disrespectful of British Israelism to ignore the millennium old traditions within Africa. I just ran across writings by the devil John Hawkings... it's not a good look. They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery, but we have give homage to the original keepers.

Thank-you for your reply and interest in the subject DavidSon. There is no disrespect intended to any other race of people on Earth in pointing out who the true Israelite people are today. It's a very simple matter of looking at ALL of the prophetic descriptions given in Scripture of the people Israel, which provide some amazing details.

Reviewing the 70 or more "marks" of true Israel in Scripture, and comparing those descriptions to known historical records, should remove any reasonable doubt of who they really are. Some of these can be listed in a follow-up post to provide a start at looking into the rest of them.

Before sharing any of that information though, it's important to understand why such information is being shared, and what it means.

Isra-El literally means "champion of God". Israel was supposed to be a demonstration people (NOT a master race) to the rest of the world of how wonderful it is to keep God's Law/Commandments. The rest of the world in seeing the blessings bestowed upon Israel for their good behavior would in turn desire those same blessings, and be allowed to join Israel under the sole condition that they too keep The Law. In that manner the Kingdom would have grown, until eventually the entire world would have become the Kingdom of heaven here on earth.

But that didn't happen, because Israel decided it would rather take after the example of its neighbors than set the example they promised Father (God) they would set by keeping The Law. In fact, and very unfortunately, in many if not most respects, Israel has set an example of how NOT to be. It's very unfortunate because Israel is about to be punished severely for these extremely poor choices.

Which brings us to the present-day, and should explain why Christ said the following:-

Matthew 8:11-12
8:11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the East and West, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the Kingdom of heaven.
8:12 But many of the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

However, without a solid understanding of who the true people of Israel really are, it is impossible to understand prophecy, all of which was written about Israel.

You mentioned the document known as the Sheba-Menelik Cycle containing parts dated to before the 6th Century BC, which has been used to purportedly (and falsely) place the whereabouts of the Ark of The Covenant in Ethiopia.

This false claim, i.e. that The Ark was taken to Ethiopia during the time of Solomon and Menelik, simply doesn't hold up to scrutiny. The Bible itself states that The Ark was still in Jerusalem c. 400 years AFTER the time of Solomon and Menelik.

There are others, like the Knights Templar, who also claim to possess The Ark, in Rosslyn Chapel, Scotland. The Templars supposedly went to Ethiopia to search for The Ark, after first searching for it in Jerusalem. They did not find it there either, because the Ethiopian claim is untrue, as is proved by The Bible. If the Templars actually found the Ark of The Covenant in Jerusalem, as they falsely claim today, why did they then go to Ethiopia to look for it?

On the other hand, we have rock-solid proof that the Ark of The Covenant was brought to Ireland, along with exactly who brought it there and when. And that rock-solid proof is the Stone of Destiny, aka Jacob's Pillar Stone, the Bethel Stone, the Coronation Stone, the Lia Fail, and the Stone of Israel, which accompanied the Ark of The Covenant from Jerusalem, to Tanis, Egypt before continuing on to Ireland via Gibraltar, Breogan in Spain, and Marazion in Cornwall. The Israelites did not move one of these important artifacts without the other, as they go hand-in-hand*, which is one of the reasons why they're referred to as the two hostages (2 Chron. 25:24).

*The Ark of The Covenant and the Stone of Destiny went hand-in-hand because the monarch is coronated on the Stone (the Davidic Throne), and COMMANDED to administer God's Law ONLY, the original scrolls of which are found in the side of the Ark.

Deuteronomy 17:18-20
17:18 And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this Law in a book out of [that which is] before the priests the Levites:
17:19 And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the "I AM" his God, to keep all the words of this Law and these Statutes, to DO them:
17:20 That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the Commandment, [to] the right hand, or [to] the left: to the end that he may prolong [his] days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.

Hopefully this helps explain why maintaining The Laws of God is included in the British coronation oath, which took place over Jacob's Pillar Stone, until it was repatriated by the Scots on December 25, 1950.

Excerpt from the Coronation Oath:

Archbishop:Will you to the utmost of your power MAINTAIN THE LAWS OF GOD and the true profession of the Gospel?

Monarch: All this I promise to do.

The following is a logical place to start one's search into who the true people Israel are today.

Father (God) made an everlasting promise to David that David would never lack one of his descendants to SIT upon the Throne of Israel, right up to the time when the Throne WILL be given to Christ.

Psalm 89:34-36
89:34 My Covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
89:35 Once have I sworn by My holiness that I will not lie unto David.
89:36 His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as "the sun" before me.

Jeremiah 33:17 For thus saith the "I AM"; David shall never want (lack) a man to sit upon the throne of the House of Israel;

(See also: 2 Samuel 7:25-26, 1 Kings 11:36, 2 Kings 8:19).

These prophecies about the Throne of David can mean only one thing: that current-day Israel MUST likewise have a monarchy.

As of 2019, there are 44 sovereign states in the world with a monarch as Head of state. 13 in Asia, 12 in Europe, 10 in North America, 6 in Oceania and 3 in Africa.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_current_monarchies

As can be seen from the link above, 16 of the 44 sovereign states are under the British monarchy. Please note well that beside the British monarchy, none of the other monarchs rule over more than one sovereign state.

This fact alone reduces the search possibilities for the Davidic Throne of Israel down to ONE: Great Britain. The British Throne. Why? Because Israel was prophesied to become not only a nation, but a company of nations (Gen. 35:11).

Of course there's more.

So what else can we use to determine who TRUE Israel is during these end-times? There are literally dozens and dozens of marks in Scripture describing the PEOPLE Israel during the latter days, which leave NO DOUBT that the one tiny little country in the Middle East could not possibly be true Israel. The following are a dozen of the many marks of true Israel:-

1. Israel's NAME will be “Great” (Gen. 12:2). GREAT BRITAIN.

2. Israel's NAME will be upon the sons of Joseph: Ephraim and Manasseh (Gen. 48:16), NOT Judah.

3. The House of Israel is to be multiplied like “the sands of the sea” and “the stars of heaven” (Gen. 22:17, Hos. 1:10, Rom. 9:27, Heb. 11:12), while at the very same time the House of Judah is to be reduced to a mere remnant.

4. The House of Israel and the House of Judah will remain SEPARATED until the return of The Messiah/Christ/Shiloh (Eze. 37:15-28), Who will be using a body from Joseph-Ephraim this time, NOT from Judah (Gen. 49:10,22-26). Until Christ is RULING over BOTH Houses, it is impossible for them to be reunited.

5. Israel is to migrate from the Holy Land to "the isles afar off" (Jer. 31:10, Isa. 66:19) to wait for God's Law (Isa. 42:4).

6. Israel is then to spread to the West (America), then to the East (India/Australasia), then to the North (Canada) and finally to the South (Africa) in that specific order (Gen. 28:14).

7. Israel is to become a nation AND a COMPANY of nations (Gen. 35:11) and to GROW into a MULTITUDE (Commonwealth) of nations in the midst of the Earth (Gen. 48:16-19).

8. Israel is to be defended by God while spreading His Gospel to the rest of the world (Isa. 43:10-12, 21,Zech. 4, Mark 13:10, Rev. 11:3-6).

9. Israel is to become a global, maritime power (Num. 24:7-9) and possess the sea-gates of its enemies (Gen. 22:17).

10. Israel is to have a everlasting monarchy,with a descendant of David sitting on his throne (Jer. 33:17, Psalm 89:34-36) until Christ comes from Joseph-Ephraim (the English), with the final king being The King of kings: Christ at His Second Coming.

11. The Stone of Israel, in this case referring to the physical Throne of Israel, is Jacob's Pillar-Stone—aka the Bethel Stone, the Davidic British-Israelite Throne, the Coronation Stone, and the Lia Failwhich is soon to be given to Christ(Eze. 21:26-27).

12. The body used by the Chief-Cornerstone, i.e. Christ at His Second Coming, is to come from Joseph-Ephraim NOT Judah (Gen. 49:10, 22-26), because Joseph was promised both the birthright and the crown (Deut. 33:16-17, 1 Chron. 5:1-2).

It should also be pointed out that "British" is NOT an English word; it is HEBREW and means "the people of the Covenant", i.e. the people Israel, with whom God made His Everlasting Covenant.

Where on Earth is there a monarchy that has crowned its kings and queens over a rough stone for centuries that can trace its origin back to Bethel in Israel? AND which nation's NAME is GREAT other than Great Britain?AND which nation has grown into a company/multitude/commonwealth of nations in the midst of the Earth? AND who liberated Jerusalem from Gentile rule as prophesied (Dan. 12:7)?

NONE of the above descriptions of TRUE Israel fit the counterfeit Jewish state in Israel in the Middle East, which is home to roughly 0.12% of the world's population and doesn't have a monarchy of any kind, much less an uninterrupted one.

Question: "What is British Israelism and is it biblical?"

Answer: British Israelism, also known as Anglo-Israelism, is the belief that the "lost ten tribes" of Israel migrated to Europe and then to England and became the primary ancestors of the British people and, thereby, the United States. British Israelism was made popular by the Worldwide Church of God and Herbert Armstrong, but other groups have held the doctrine as well.

Is British Israelism true and biblical? In order to determine this, we need to examine the two primary claims: (1) The ten tribes were lost, and (2) the ten tribes migrated to England.

(1) 2 Kings 17:18 states that Israel was deported to Assyria in 722 B.C. After this time, mention of the ten northern tribes (Israel) is rare in Scripture. However, other Scriptures (and historical records) indicate that some of the people of the northern ten tribes remained in the land. Second Chronicles 35:18 records Israel celebrating the Passover with Judah approximately 90 years after the Assyrian deportation. It is likely that many people of the northern ten tribes fled to Judah to escape the Assyrians, and even more fled to the safety of Judah after the Assyrians had ransacked Israel. Second Chronicles 15:9 records people from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon settling in Judah long before the Assyrian invasion. In the New Testament, the prophetess Anna is said to be from the tribe of Asher (Luke 2:36), one of the supposed ten lost tribes. So, yes, many people from the northern ten tribes were deported to Assyria, never to be mentioned again. At the same time, there is sufficient evidence in Scripture to prove that the ten tribes were not lost, but rather rejoined with Judah in the south. It is likely that when Judah was deported by the Babylonians, the people would have sought out the Israelites in Assyria (very near Babylon) and joined with them. In the returns to Israel recorded in Ezra and Nehemiah, the Scriptures nowhere limit the returnees as being entirely from the tribe of Judah.

(2) Is it possible that some of the deported Israelites emigrated to Europe, even England? Yes. It is likely? No. A journey from Assyria to England would have been exceedingly difficult in ancient times, especially for a large number of people. Geographically speaking, Afghan-Israelism and even Japanese-Israelism have a greater possibility of truth. Further, why would Assyria, or later Babylon, or later Persia allow the Israelites to migrate outside of their territories? Further, if the Israelites had the ability to migrate, why would they travel to Europe / England instead of back to their ancestral homeland? So, while it is possible that some Israelites migrated to Europe / England, it is highly unlikely that this occurred to any significant degree.

The primary goal behind British Israelism is to claim that England and the United States have inherited the covenant promises God made to Israel. While England and the United States have been blessed by God in many ways, it is not because God's promises to Israel have been transferred to those two nations. God's covenants with Israel always involved the specific land of Israel. Abraham's descendants would inherit the land. The blessings of God to Israel were always in connection with the specific land that was promised. These promises, therefore, cannot apply to England or the United States, as those two nations do not possess the promised land. Further, while a significant number of Americans have English heritage, there are far more American immigrants from other nations combined than from England.

British Israelism (and other forms of Israelism) should be rejected because it does not have a solid basis biblically or historically.

Genesis 48:16-19
48:16 The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name [Israel] be named on them (let Ephraim and Manasseh be called Israel), and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
48:17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head.
48:18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this [is] the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.
48:19 And his father refused, and said, I know [it], my son, I know [it]: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude (Commonwealth) of nations.

The Celts are one of the Tribes of Israel... The Roman and Viking invader culture destroyed the Celtic mysteries and the Brits of today have little in common with their distant ancestors, who possessed a remarkable level of spiritual culture. There are some very sacred sites in the British land, Glastonbury for example, which it is said Joseph of Arimathia visited. The King Arthur mythology is the British redeemer hero myth, every culture has it's own.

Nowadays though it's Babylon, a center of the powers of finance.

lol @ the british coat of arms
the britons aren't to be confused with the anglo saxon majority of modern Britain. The britons were celts, an ancient race of people who crossed over from europe, with little known about them.
Is it possible they were Israelites? we don't know for sure.

Here's what we know
-The israelites were enslaved by the Assyrians and taken across the Jordan river.
-in end times prophecy it says the israelites will return, crossing the jordan river ON FOOT. In otherwords, they went east and will return from the east.
-it's kind of like in hadith where we're told an army of 70000 BANI ISRAEL will conquer Constantinople (this is connected with the conquest of rome/the beast theme in that back then Constantinople was the city of romans/byzantines, so it doesn't necessarily literally refer to Constantinople/Istanbul). This particular army will come from the east, they will be muslim in religioun BUT after their victory they'll learn about the false messiah and go to follow him.
In other hadith it says dajjal will have 70000 JEWS from isfahan. There's aren't 70000 jews in the whole of iran anymore. What is likely is you have crypto-jews (for example Ahmadinejad is a crypto jew).
-The bible tells us the israelites would lose their identity amongst alien races. The celts didnt lose their identity, they were celts and remain celts till today (the scottish and welsh people are celtic).
It makes far more sense that they merged into ancient babylonian/persian society and beyond.
-one example of the lost tribes that's become popular is the Pashtun origin theory.

The word "Hadith" is Arabic and means "the traditions of the fathers/elders".

The word "Talmud" is Hebrew and also means "the traditions of the fathers/elders".

Both of these texts were made up in direct contradiction to the Bible and Koran, to promote their own religious agendas. Neither of these texts therefore are the inspired word of our Creator, nor are they lawful, nor should anything they say be trusted.

The word "Brit" is Hebrew and means "Covenant", and "-ish" means the same thing in Hebrew as it does in English or Welsh: "the people of". Therefore the term "British" means "people of the Covenant" or the people Israel, since the only people God ever made a Covenant with are the people Israel.

There is no other nation on earth that has a continuous monarchy that can trace its roots back to Jerusalem.

There is no other nation on earth that crowns its monarchs over a purplish, porphyry stone from the Bethel area in Israel.

There is no other people that have become a nation and a company of nations, growing into a multitude in the midst of the earth.

There is no other nation whose NAME is "Great" other than "Great Britain".

There is no other nation that fits ALL of the more than 70 scriptural marks used to identify the Israelite people during the end-times.

The book of Daniel speaks of 4 kingdoms (Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Greek and Roman) that will rise and fall BEFORE the final "Stone" Kingdom, which shall have no end.

Daniel 2:34-45
2:34 Thou sawest till that a Stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet [that were] of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the "Stone" that smote the image became a great "mountain", and filled the whole earth.
2:36 This [is] the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.
2:37 Thou, O king, [art] a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
2:38 And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath He given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou [art] this head of gold (the Babylonian Empire).
2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee (Cyrus and the Medo-Persian Empire), and another third kingdom of brass (Alexander the Great's Greek Empire), which shall bear rule over all the earth.
2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron (the Roman Empire): forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all [things]: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.
2:41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided (into the Eastern and Western Roman Empires); but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
2:42 And [as] the toes of the feet [were] part of iron, and part of clay (Rev. 13:1; 17:12), [so] the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
2:43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
2:44 And in the days of these kings (Rev. 17:12-14) shall the God of heaven set up a Kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the Kingdom shall not be left to other people, [but] it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the "Stone" was cut out of the "mountain" without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream [is] certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.

The "Stone" has a two-fold meaning, as it refers to both Jacob's Pillar Stone, used as the Davidic Throne, and also to Christ, Who is the Chief Corner-Stone of Israel.

At the turn of the 19th century the British Empire ruled over 3/4 of the world, which earned them the description as "the empire on which the sun never sets" (Psalm 89:34-36). There simply is no other empire today that has been blessed in this way since the fall of the Roman Empire, nor is there any other nation that can fit the rest of the prophecies about the people Israel.

Of course everyone's entitled to their opinions, but these are the facts, and they are irrefutable, as Daniel told Nebuchadnezzar almost 2600 years ago.

Another interesting country that has to do with this topic is Spain.

Spain is known as the IBERIAN Peninsula - WHY?

Why isn't it called the Spanish Peninsula?

The word Iberia is a corruption of the word "Eber"ia / Heberia which means "Hebrew's Land".

The legendary "King Solomon's mines" were in the Iberian Peninsula where Solomon sent his famous miners, to mine minerals to increase his legendary wealth.

There is a tomb-stone in Sagunto, Spain, bearing the epitaph, in HEBREW, "This is the tomb of Adoniram (1 kings 4:6), an officer of Solomon, who came to collect Tribute (taxes) and died the (illegible) day." Tribute (tax) is only collected from subjects not foreigners.
