1. "Kol HaTor"
In our book "Joseph. The Israelite Destiny of America"
http://www.britam.org/bkjoseph.html
There is a whole chapter on the Messiah Son of Joseph.
Much of this material is repeated in our article,
"Messiah son of Joseph"
http://www.britam.org/messiah.html
Some of our sources for this subject were derived from the book,
"Kol HaTor" ("Voice of the Turteldove") which is based on sayings of Eliyahu of Vilna (1720-1797).
This work is  available in English Translation on the Web
http://www.yedidnefesh.com/kaballah/kol-hator/3.htm
We have also seen an attractively presented English Translation of this work in the bookshops.
[If this work has commentary it could be valuable. We will check it again].
There is no secret about the book "Kol HaTor" and never was.
For decades it has been a favorite amongst Religious Zionists.
Brit-Am was the first to see the pertinence of this work to Lost Ten Tribe matters.
This was an outcome of our research in general  and complements references to "Messiah son of Joseph" in other sources
such as the Malbim.
One did not however need to be a "rocket scientist"
to see the connection.
Even so just to get to a basic level in "Brit-Am" matters of research can take years and even then
one needs a certain combination of  Divine Assistance, and dedication to get anywhere.
The chapter on
"Messiah son of Joseph"  in our book "Joseph" appears to cover most relevant references
http://www.britam.org/bkjoseph.html
pertinent to the Lost Ten Tribes at present available.

We are NOT claiming a monopoly on the connection between sources concerning the "Messiah son of Joseph",
the book "Kol HaTor", and the Lost Ten Tribes.
Anyone who has anything to add is welcome to do so.
So far, however, as far as we know, no-one yet has.

Much additional material certainly exists and could benefit from additional research.
We are constantly searching for new sources (or a deeper  expounding of old ones) and occasionally
we find them. Together with this we understand the need to keep everything simple, sane, truthful, and convincing.

We have the book "Kol HaTor" in Hebrew and have read most of it through more than once.
Contrary to certain reports,
There is nothing in "Kol HaTor" that could "help" promote Christian beliefs.
If you do not believe us go to the English translation above and check for yourselves!
There is also nothing much in this work (at its simple level at least) beyond what we
have already published that can be applied to "Brit-Am" type matters.
Other works however do exist.

3. The Hebrew Roots of English?
Question:
From: Jonathan Tillotson <jon_tillotson@yahoo.co.uk>
Subject: Re: "Brit-Am Now"-1022
Hi Yair,

What does Brit Am have to say about the notion that the English Language is directly related to Hebrew. I believe some linguists accept this, while most would reject it. Is that correct? Does Brit Am have a position?

Regards

Jonathan
================================================
Reply:
No conventionally-accepted Linguist considers English to be derived from Hebrew.

Dr Terry Blodgett however did present an academically valid explanation,
see:
The Hebrew Sources of Northern Tongues
http://britam.org/tongues.html

See also the Brit-Am articles on Linguistics in general:
http://www.britam.org/ContentsSubject.html#LINGUISTICS

Apart from that we doubt whether anyone who knows both Biblical Hebrew and English fairly well
can deny some kind of connection between the two.

Recently noticed possible word-links of interest include:
"Shade" - Hebrew "ghost" but related to "Tsad" =side
cf. English  "shadow"
Irish - "sidhe"

"Tsad" - Hebrew "side"
"tsido"- Hebrew "side of"
cf. English "side"

"Goi" -Hebrew "people", "heathen"
cf. English slang "guy" (man, fellow)

Hebrew "sabon"
cf. English "soap" ("b" and "p" interchange in Semitic languages)

"Sad", "sid" - Hebrew verb for breaking earth up into smaller segments
English "sod" (clump of earth usually with grass covering)

Hebrew: "hiSik, SaK" meaning "raise, go up" from which we have the Modern
Hebrew word "moSoK" meaning "helicopter" from the same (SK) root.
This could gives us the English word "sky".

"min" -Hebrew "type, kind of"
"man" - Aramaic "someone, person"
"man" - English, "male person".

English is a composite of Anglo-Saxon, French, Latin, and other languages
which in their turn are composites of tongues that went before them.
All European tongues have some similarity to Semitic ones.
Nevertheless, our impression (shared by others including those who do not necessarily
share Brit-Am beliefs) is that somehow English has retained in its vocabulary, grammar,
and "inner soul" stronger links with Hebrew than are found in most other languages.
