This is a good point and I have studied this type of thing quite a bit, there seems to be an older grid system than the one we currently use, and the accuracy you could navigate by it is quite amazing considering what we imagine about the past.

On the subject of the British stone rings, do you think they had any connection to the earlier Canaanite flat stone rings?

Brit-Am Comment: By British Grid System etc I am not sure what you are referring to.
Perhaps I should not hurry to admit it but I know nothing about this.
If anybody can provide a brief and clear explanation both I and quite a few of our subscribers
would be grateful.

2. Overjoyed to find Brit-Am Web Site

I have been alone in my beliefs now for many years and

4. WHAT ARE THE DUTIES OF EPHRAIM?
DUTIES OF EPHRAIM INCLUDE:

Reconciliation with Judah
Physical Reproduction
Justice and Judgment
Patriotism
Becoming a Blessing to Others
Bible Learning and an interest in the Temple
Prayer
No Substance Abuse
No Sexual Immorality
Honesty
Studying Your Israelite Origins and supporting
those (such as Brit-Am) engaged in such studies.
Other Points
[[Despite the above remarks Brit-Am is not a religion nor a religious ministry.
We are not qualified to give religious or personal advice
NOR do we want to.
Our task is that of the Brit-Am three Rs:
The three Rs of Brit-Am:

a. Research
b. Revelation to Others.
c. Reconciliation and Recognition Judah and Joseph.

"Brit-Am Now"-316:
http://britam.org/now/now316.html

Extracts with Adaptation:

In the Messianic Era the religious difference between Judah and Joseph will
be resolved.

In the meantime each section has its own obligations.

Whether or not Joseph should draw close to the Law at present, and if so,
how, are debatable points outside of our sphere. I personally believe they
should do so but the question is not essential from the Brit-Am point of view.

What then according to the Bible are the duties of Ephraim (the Lost Ten
Tribes) today?

God chose Abraham to be blessed and to bring a blessing upon all the
peoples of the earth (Genesis 12:2-3, 18:18-19, 22:18 cf. 24:4). Abraham
was promised that his seed would be extremely numerous (15:5, 22:17). One
of the purposes of the promises was that through the blessings the
descendants of Abraham would be enabled to do justice and judgment (18:19).

Patriotism: It is the will of the Almighty that the national blessings be
fulfilled and if on our level we can do anything to further that aim we
should do so.
The blessings are not only gifts but also goals.
Those who can have children should do so.

On both the national and personal levels we should strive to do justice and
judgment and be a source of blessing to everyone.

In our commentary on Numbers -see our book Biblical Truth
http://britam.org/truth.html
Balaam intended to separate the aspects of
Jacob from Israel (Numbers 23:7). Jacob and Israel represent in Scripture the
two bodies of Judah and the Ten Lost Tribes. Division is a curse. The two
halves of Israel (headed by Judah and Joseph) need to be united.

We should do what we can to further the cause of re-unification between
Judah and Joseph.

Israel will exist separately from other nations (Numbers 23:9). We can be
beneficial without losing our uniqueness.

Isaiah (9:21) also recalls situations in which the various sections of Israel will
be opposed to each other:

[Isaiah 9:21] MANASSEH EPHRAIM, AND EPHRAIM MANASSEH, AND TOGETHER THEY ARE
AGAINST JUDAH. FOR ALL THIS HIS ANGER IS NOT TURNED AWAY AND HIS HAND IS
STRETCHED OUT STILL.

Manasseh is identifiable with the USA, Ephraim with Britain and her
daughters, Judah with the Jewish people. There will be some degree of
fiction between the divisions of Israel until the Last Days.

In the future there will be an end to anti-Semitism on the part of Ephraim
and fiction with Judah:

[Isaiah 11:13] THE JEALOUSY OF EPHRAIM SHALL DEPART, AND THOSE WHO HARASS
JUDAH SHALL BE CUT OFF; EPHRAIM SHALL NOT BE JEALOUS OF JUDAH, AND JUDAH
SHALL NOT HARASS EPHRAIM.

Antagonism between the different sections of the Israelite nation is
described as negative and should be avoided. Judah should help the USA and
the West. The West and the USA (Ephraim) should not be anti-Semitic but in
favor of Judah.

The returnees will worship God in the Holy Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
(Isaiah 27:13). Isaiah described the drunkards of Ephraim negatively (28:1).
Amos condemned the sexual immorality of Ephraim
(Amos 2:7), and business dishonesty (Amos 2:8).

"Joseph" should study his hebrew Roots and prove them to himself and others:
[Jeremiah 31:21] SET THEE UP WAYMARKS, MAKE THEE HIGH HEAPS: SET THINE
HEART TOWARD THE HIGHWAY, EVEN THE WAY WHICH THOU WENTEST: TURN AGAIN, O
VIRGIN OF ISRAEL, TURN AGAIN TO THESE THY CITIES.

Abarbanel: "The prophet therefore spoke concerning the
Kingdom of Israel [of the Ten Tribes] SET THEE UP WAYMARKS saying that when
you go into Exile make signs by the routes and waymarks like piles of rocks
[i.e. cairns] or stone monuments [Hebrew: Matzavah, i.e. dolmen] so that
you may set your heart to the route and remember in order that you may
return in the way you went in, return to your city.""

Joseph should study and learn his Israelite origins. He should internalize
them. These studies should include supporting the whole Brit-Am program of
Biblical and secular researches.

As a descendant of Israel you have a Biblical obligation to study your
origins and also spread this knowledge to your community.

The Children of Israel and the Children of Judah in the Last Days will seek
the LORD their God (Jeremiah 50:4).
Pray, and learn, and do what you can in this regard.

Ezekiel (37:15-28) saw the return of the Ten Tribes as an indispensable
requirement for the deliverance of Israel and Judah.

Ezekiel says that Judah has an obligation to help the Lost Ten
Tribes return. The complete return of Judah is dependent upon the return of
Samaria (16:53, 55, 61) meaning the Ten Tribes especially Manasseh.

Redemption will come through righteousness, judgment, loving-kindness, and
mercies (Hosea 2:19).

In the Last Days the Lost Israelites shall Return to God and seek the
Kingdom of David (Hosea 3:5).

[Micah 6:8] HE HATH SHEWED THEE, O MAN, WHAT IS GOOD; AND WHAT DOTH THE
LORD REQUIRE OF THEE, BUT TO DO JUSTLY, AND TO LOVE MERCY, AND TO WALK
HUMBLY WITH THY GOD.

[Amos 5:14] SEEK GOOD, AND NOT EVIL, THAT YE MAY LIVE: AND SO THE LORD, THE
GOD OF HOSTS, SHALL BE WITH YOU, AS YE HAVE SPOKEN.
[Amos 5:15] HATE THE EVIL, AND LOVE THE GOOD, AND ESTABLISH JUDGMENT IN
THE GATE: IT MAY BE THAT THE LORD GOD OF HOSTS WILL BE GRACIOUS UNTO THE
REMNANT OF JOSEPH.
"THE REMNANT OF JOSEPH" is exhorted to seek good and ESTABLISH JUDGMENT IN
THE GATE.
"JUSTICE" and everything connected with it is what is required of
the Lost Ten Tribes.

If we do all these things we will be blessed.

[Malachi 4:5] BEHOLD, I WILL SEND YOU ELIJAH THE PROPHET BEFORE THE COMING
OF THE GREAT AND DREADFUL DAY OF THE LORD:
[Malachi 4:6] AND HE SHALL TURN THE HEART OF THE FATHERS TO THE CHILDREN,
AND THE HEART OF THE CHILDREN TO THEIR FATHERS, LEST I COME AND SMITE THE
EARTH WITH A CURSE.
"THE HEART OF THE CHILDREN TO THEIR FATHERS": We have an obligation to
honor our parents and also to enable our children to honor us.

This verse also refers to the Lost Ten Tribes
returning and identifying their ancestral fore-fathers from the Tribes of
Israel. The Lost Ten Tribes of Israel must be made aware of their
Brit-Am Hebrew identity. Judah must also know. This should be accompanied by
a mutual arousal towards repentance, reconciliation, and re-unification.
