1. House of David and other Families
From: Aram Paquin <yarnia@charter.net>
Subject: An interesting new website

Yair,
Are you familiar with this movement?
http://members.aol.com/rdavidh218/davidicdynasty.html
Looks interesting.

Also, read http://www.davidicdynasty.org/
especially: "Now I understand why I am so passionate about helping the Jewish people."
That rings a bell.

Aram Paquin

Brit-Am Comment: These web-sites are interesting and research in the said direction is important.
This does not necessarily mean that we agree with everything these sites propose.
We wish to begin collecting basic data concerning all family names in the west.
Even prosaic names (such as trade names, e.g. Smith. Taylor) can tell us quite a bit.

3. Biblical Proof no. 25: FIRES IN THE ISLES

[Isaiah 24:14]
"THEY SHALL LIFT UP THEIR VOICE; THEY SHALL SING FOR THE MAJESTY OF THE
LORD, THEY SHALL CRY ALOUD FROM THE SEA."

<<FROM THE SEA>>: In Hebrew, Me-Yam, also meaning 'from the west'. The
Aramaic Translation and Rabbinical Commentators say it means THE EXILES
WILL BE IN THE WEST IN THE LAST DAYS! Then it goes on to speak of Britain.

   [Isaiah 24:15]
"WHEREFORE GLORIFY YE THE LORD IN THE FIRES, EVEN THE NAME OF THE LORD GOD
O ISRAEL IN THE ISLES OF THE SEA."


   Piotr Gasiorowski: <<I think the tradition of erecting hilltop cairns
and mounds as orientation marks, and of using beacon fires for
long-distance communication was very strong in Celtic (also Roman) Britain;
the landscape of much of the country is as suitable for this purpose as
could be. One trace of that is the occurrence of the Brythonic element tan
- 'fire' (Welsh tan) in hill names (there are many Tan Hills in England).
-- not only in ancient times but all through history down to the invention
of the telegraph. For example, a network of beacons set up on hilltops was
used in England in 1588 to signal the approach of the Spanish Armada, and
once it was spotted off the Scillies the news reached the English
commanders in no time at all.>>

Adapted from "Lost Israelite Identity", by Yair Davidiy

<<"The Chronicles of Eri, being the history of the Gaal Sciot Iber, or the
Irish People, translated from the Phoenician dialect of the Scythian
language" by Roger O' Connor, were published in London in two volumes in
1822. It is not certain what sources this work is based upon but internal
evidence indicates that it derived from similar ancient traditions as those
known elsewhere from Irish sources. The Irish had Oral traditions, written
Chronicles of their own, and also were privy to Early Medieval scholarship
that developed from Latin records and much of which was genuine and most of
which has been lost.  They also had oral traditions and there were
individuals who would consider it a privilege, and duty, to commit to
memory the traditions of their region. The Chronicles of Eri do not
expressly say that their ancestors were Hebraic but they talk around the
subject so that Hebrew origins are the logical conclusion to be drawn even
though such may not have been the intention of the editor or "translator"
who attempts to date the described events long before the time of Israelite exile.

<<The Chronicle says that the Gaali had been in Armenia, and the Caucasus.
They were traders and metallurgists, and archers. Oppressed by the
Assyrians they fled via Hamath in northern Syria [-Which incidentally was
known later as "Daphne of Antiochia" and was considered one of three
regions through which the Lost Ten Tribes were taken into exile, according
to the Midrash. The Jewish historian Nahum Slouschz (1909) regarded the
Exile of Daphne of Antiochea to represent those Israelites who were
associated with the Phoenicians].

The Chronicles tells how the Gaali sail to Spain which was then ruled by
the Phoenicians who in turn were directed from (Assyrian-controlled?)
Hamath. In Spain at first they are forced to work for Phoenician overseers.
They move from the southern area of Tartessos to Galatia in the northwest
and shake off Phoenician control. Together with the Phoenicians from their
base in Spain they establish mining operations in Cornwall, in Britain.
Some of them move to Aquitaine in Gaul. Due to war and famine, those in
Spanish Galatia all eventually immigrate to Ireland. Though not Phoenicians
they worship God under the form of Baal, receive instruction in Phoenician
ways, bear Hebrew-sounding names and seem to have Israelite-values such as
an aversion to images and other characteristics.

These people (the Gaal of Sciot) had the custom of lighting beacon fires on the coasts.

"All the headlands and promontories belonging to the Gaal of Sciot on the
northwest coast of Spain  were called in the Phoenician language Breoccean,
that is, The Land of Flaming Fires, because of the blaze that was kept up
and could be seen at a great distance out to sea. The same custom was
observed on the coast of Cornwall and Devonshire after the Gaal of Sciot
joined with the Phoenicians in their mining operations there, and that land
was called Breotan, Breo meaning Flaming Fire" [cf. "BIAR" = burn in Hebrew].

(Isaiah 24:14-15)

  "They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the
LORD. They shall cry aloud from the sea. Wherefore, glorify the LORD in the
fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea."
