1. Thank You  for your  support and encouragement
Brit-Am wishes to thank all those who recently sent us letters of support
and encouragement.
Instead of replying to each letter individually at this stage I just want  you to know
that we appreciate your trust in us and are happy that Providence has
enabled us to be of some benefit to all our peoples.

2. Steven Collins: Roman ship
From: scollins <scollins@ll.net>
Shalom Yair,

The item in your recent Jerusalem News about the Roman shipwreck found in
Brazil was most interesting. The article mentions the existence of a
blue-eyed, blonde tribe of "Indians" in Brazil. My own view is that they
are more likely descended from the Israelite/Phoenicians who were in the
New World by design rather than the Romans were there by accident. Since
having blue-eyes is a recessive genetic gene, it had to come from a group
which was dominant in that characteristic. Many Goths were known for this
same trait, which indicates a common Israelite genetic origin. The physical
evidence that the Israelite/Phoenicians were present in the Americas long
before the Romans is overwhelming.

Consider Ecclesiastes 1:6 wherein Solomon wrote about the circular trade
winds which are found over the oceans. Knowing about these circular trade
winds greatly facilitates transatlantic travel as sailors then know how to
save much time by traveling westward across the southern Atlantic toward
Brazil and then eastward toward Europe via the westerly winds and the Gulf
Coast current. II Chronicles 8:18 confirms that King Hiram of Tyre gave the
Israelite mariners the "secrets of the sea" and that the "Phoenician"
fleets were jointly crewed by Israelites and sailors from Tyre and Sidon
from Solomon's time onward. Since the Israelites had been recipients of the
Phoenician maritime secrets, it would be natural for Solomon, the overall
King of the Phoenician alliance during his lifetime, to write about some of
the maritime knowledge which then existed.

3. Conspiracy Theories
Many otherwise good people have been misled by Conspiracy Theories.
These are wrong and in nearly all cases formulated by enemies of the Israelite
peoples especially those of  Judah and Joseph.
For an exposure of these theories  see
http://www.endtimesnetwork.com/oldnews/origmyth.html

I myself have a 'fundamentalist" type outlook.  I believe in Biblical values
and am suspicious of liberals and against one-world government etc.
Nevertheless the truth is not to be served by dealing in lies.
[Exodus 23:7] KEEP THEE FAR FROM A FALSE MATTER;
AND THE INNOCENT AND RIGHTEOUS SLAY THOU NOT: FOR I WILL NOT JUSTIFY THE
WICKED.

These Conspiracy people are not our friends. They are not on the side
of  truth and righteousness.

4. "Biblical Truth"; Worth Reading
Just finished reading the 2nd book "Biblical Truth"! (questions will follow
in different e-mails!!!!) This is even better written than "Origin", in my
view. Thank you. S.


5. Question about Ten Tribes in the East
>Question:
>Yair,
>I'd like to know if there is any grain of truth to the claims of the
>people from India claiming descent from Manasseh.  If so, how do you prove
>it.  If not, how do you disprove it?
>A&E put out a DVD/Video concerning the "Lost Tribes of Israel" based on
>the research/findings of Simcha Jacobovici (
><http://www.al-qiyamah.org/children_of_israel_gathered_(al_isra').htm>http://www.al-qiyamah.org/children_of_israel_gathered_(al_isra').htm.
>Jacobovici's A&E presentation also claims the Ethiopian Jews are from the
>tribe of Dan.  Can this claim be proven or disproven?  It would seem odd
>if this claim was true, unless it could be proven that Dan or one of his
>descendents married an Ethiopian woman.  We do know that Solomon gave
>gifts to the Queen of Sheba and might have given her a bundle of joy
>(might being the operative word).  Moses was married to an Ethiopian
>woman, but the Bible doesn't say if she gave him children or not.  If
>Solomon did sire a child with the Queen of Sheba (and if she was
>Ethiopian) and if Moses sired a child with his Ethiopian bride, that would
>make the Ethiopian Jews from Levi or Judah, wouldn't it?
>B.J.

Answer:
Peoples of Israelite descent such as the Scythians, Goths, and Naphtalites,
and others mainly went westward but offshoots from them did to some degree
remain in the east and  penetrated India.
We do not know how many of the 'Scythians" etc who went to India were real
"Scythians" from the original stock or subject tribes who had become
identified with them as frequently happened.
At all events we have not gone into this subject. The historical trail is
not so clear and the Biblical evidence is not really there as it is for Israelites on the west.
On the other hand there are verses (e.g. Isaiah 11:11) saying that
Israelites will also return from "Cush" and "Cush" in some instances does mean India and  neighboring areas.
Ethiopian Jews are descendants of  Israelites (possibly from Dan), of  Judahites, and of converts,
and others. In my opinion they are to be regarded as part of Judah and
Judah is treating them correctly. We speak at length about the Ethiopian Jews in our book "Ephraim".

The Lost Ten Tribes are primarily in the west and that is the region that
Brit-Am has concentrated upon and can be consulted about.
People who are genuinely interested in the truth concerning the Lost Ten
Tribes should study Brit-Am literature and support Brit-Am.
Our group is probably the closest of all to the truth yet we receive
relatively little support and not much publicity.

6. Did the Bubonic Plague Originate in Ancient Egypt?
see Plague originated in Egypt?
http://www.geotimes.org/may04/NN_plague.html
cf.
[Exodus 15:26] AND SAID, IF THOU WILT DILIGENTLY HEARKEN TO THE VOICE OF
THE LORD THY GOD, AND WILT DO THAT WHICH IS RIGHT IN HIS SIGHT, AND WILT
GIVE EAR TO HIS COMMANDMENTS, AND KEEP ALL HIS STATUTES, I WILL PUT NONE OF
THESE DISEASES UPON THEE, WHICH I HAVE  BROUGHT UPON THE EGYPTIANS: FOR I
AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE.


7. The Bible is the True National Heritage of English-Speaking Peoples.
Our magazine "Brit-Am Truth" no. 8 is still at the press but will probably
be ready by early next week.
This issue contains some very valuable articles including:
"Is Beowulf an Israelite Work?" by David Jackson.
David Jackson makes a point that should be realized by everyone.
He says:
The Bible is the Most Genuine Tradition of the English speaking world!
<<Tolkien said he wrote his Rings Trilogy to provide the English speaking
world with a mythology that they lacked.  Like others, he believed and
wrote that Beowulf was a Christianized story.
Commenting on the Rings, De Santillana and Von Descend wrote in their book
Hamlet's Mill:
  "Tolkien's efforts at reviving the genre, whatever the talent employed,
carry as much conviction as the traditional three-dollar bill."
They label it, bluntly, a "deliberate lie".
It may be that the Scandinavians and the closely related Anglo-Saxons have
a much more interesting past than they will admit to themselves - that they
have even lied to themselves.
The basic tenet of Hamlet's Mill is that mythology is a means to transmit
knowledge.
Beowulf contains non-historical elements.  But if examined objectively, it
may provide a path to the true past. Perhaps the anonymous poet preserved
the knowledge our people once had. Maybe we've known our "mythic" past all
along. Maybe the Hebrew Patriarchs, the 12 tribes of Jacob, and the
kingdoms of Judah and Israel we've heard about in Sunday school as children
are in fact our common ancestry. We never had a Homer or Virgil (and
apparently even lost a lost a written language in the past), but the Bible
was restored to us.>>
