The Modern Ashkenazi Jews are Descendants of the Jewish Male Prisoners in 70 CE with the Female Descendants of the Lost Tribes of Israel in Europe
One of the key premises in Judaism is that to be a Jew your mother must be a Jew. This tribal standard was decreed by Ezra the Scribe when the Jewish people began their historical return to Jerusalem after their seventy year exile in Babylon and Persia. This decree was a critical fact in the preservation of the tribal and national identity of the Jewish people over the next 2,300 years.
Yet, as shocking as it may seem, it will be the theme of Destination Yisrael that guided by the hand of the Divine, this cleric decree was instituted in order to preserve the Jewish people, when once again they were again threatened with extermination when the Temple of Herod was destroyed in 70 CE. The Roman military forces under the command of the Roman General Titus sacrificed the Jewish mothers and children in a massive genocide and extermination and the Jewish fathers of military age were taken into captivity to Italy and their capital, the City of Rome.
In Part One of this series, we learned of a new genetic DNA study published in Nature Communications that postulated that 80 percent of the Ashkenazi maternal lineages came from European origins rather than Jewish mothers from the Near Eastern regions of the Roman Empire. According to Dr. Martin B Richards from the University of Huddersfield in England, four of these European lineages were assimilated into the Jewish communities that later became the Ashkenazi populations in northern Europe. As revealed in the Destination Yisrael article, titled, “Modern Ashkenazi Jew’s ancestral Matriarchs were not Jews but ancient European Women”, we read:
Destination Yisrael – “The Ashkenazim have four major female founding lineages that make up of 40% of the Ashkenazi mtDNA variations seen in ancient and prehistoric Europe rather than was assumed earlier to have come from the Near East or the regions of the Caucasus.
Even then, the remaining minor genetic foundational gene pools all shared a deep European ancestry, so as the scholars agreed upon, the maternal lineages did not come from the region of the Levant where the Land of Israel is today and all have concluded, came from woman that had assimilated and were part of the indigenous populations within Europe up to hundreds and thousands of years prior to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE. The conclusion of the scholars made an amazing and profound discovery as it may seem to be; to be a Jewish person and part of the Nation of Israel and a people’s of the G-d of Israel, one cannot also count on having a mother that is a Jew.
Yet as with all the premises of the ancient Torah law and their halakhic implications, to be a Jew, one must also agree to become part of the Jewish family of G-d and convert to Judaism. In the ancient days, 2000 years ago, as it now appears, the G-d of Israel scattered the Jewish fathers across the Europe and out of their loins, the vibrant Ashkenazi communities were founded by European and Italian matriarchs who chose Judaism as their spiritual life. Out of this came some of the most prominent Jewish rabbanim of Judaism in the last two millenniums.
The discoveries of these genetic lineages that became the foundational lineages of the Ashkenazi Jews today came by decoding the entire mitochondrial genomes of the people from Europe and the Near East surrounding the land of Israel today. It was an earlier DNA research that discovered that the Jewish communities that were scattered around the world were founded by Jewish men whose Y chromosomes bore the DNA patterns are were part of the larger gene pool found in the Near East.
Yet, it was the same geneticists, when they came to analyze the mitochondrial DNA, or the genetic elements that are separate from the main human genome and transferred through the female lineages, unlike the Y chromosomes of the male, the female mitochondrial DNA did not share a common pattern as the male Y chromosomes. The male Y Chromosomes were of Near Eastern origins but the mitochondrial DNA of the females came from European origins. This then suggested that the migration pattern of the Jewish males who entered Rome, Italy and then further to the north in Gaul (Europe) were not the same. It also depicted that the female lineages came from the indigenous population that were antecedent to the arrival of later male Jewish population.”
The Redemption and Restoration of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel
The historical documentation is overwhelming by the Orthodox Jewish Researcher, such as Yair Davidiy with Brit Am, with his numerous books and publications. His books and research collaborated with the Restoration and Redemption Vision of Kol Ha Tor in Israel; founded by Rabbi Avraham Feld and OvadYah Avrahami. This was highlighted in Rabbi Feld’s article titled, “Tracing the Lost Ten Tribes and preparing for their return”. Both rabbi and scholar are in agreement, plus numerous other scholars that there was an exile of the Northern Ten Tribes of the House of Israel, and that they virtually lost their identity that they fought each other as separate peoples, yet began to wander and move in massive migrations and multiple invasions from the east towards the continental lands in Europe to the north and west of Jerusalem. There at the time of the end, they would be living “in the land of their habitations” until a day in the future during an era of great crisis and catastrophic upheavals they would be “returned back” to the lands of their forefathers in the Land of Israel by the same great hand of G-d that took them out of captivity and oppression 3,600 years earlier in Egypt.
This Biblical evidence is astounding in the data collection alone of the biblical texts affirming such an exile as testified in Kol Ha Tor’s article titled, “Biblical Confirmations of the Return of the Tribes of Israel.” The clues are abundant in the regions of Central and Northern Europe called Gaul and in the Balkans called Galatia, that these tribes were so feared by the Romans for every time they encountered them on the battlefield, the Romans lost.
Here in the region of Gaul, a land that was virtually not inhabited became inhabited by peoples before the founding of Rome; at least by the 8th century BCE, and possibly as early as the 15th century BCE. They were the Lost Tribes of Israel and that the G-d of Israel was on a historical rescue mission that would take another 2000 years before the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel could be reclaimed, redeemed and restored back into fellowship with their ancient Jewish brothers and sisters of the House of Judah.
The traces of any other peoples outside of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel living in the ancient land of Gaul in Central and Northern Israel are scanty at best. The robust genetic and physical evidence of these early Israelites through the 12 tribal descendants of the Patriarchs Jacob is abundantly clear. These facts are also part of the historical traditions of the Jews, Christians and Muslims alike over the ages.
When we began to research the wanderings of the Lost Israelites, it is as if a veil began to evaporate before our eyes. As the Lost Tribes were sent into exile by the Assyrians to the region of the land of Media by the Assyrians, they lived, except for a remnant, for a small time in the land of their exile called the Land of Khurasan. During this time, they were the prime invasion force under Cyrus the Great, a lost Pasargadae Israelite, with his top general, Gobryas, a king of the Guti, from the Tribe of Gad. Yet the primary lands of their exile were located in the northeastern regions of Persia/Iran today plus eastern Afghanistan and western Pakistan.
We could imagine that the Lost Ten Tribes should look like peoples far different than we are today. But that is not necessarily so. When we take two photographs of two individuals, one an Afghani girl and the other a Golistan (Gaulistan) Iranian woman, we are faced with a shocking revelation.
The “Lost Israelite” “Tora Bora Girl” in the 2004 National Geographic who lived in the Pashtun Mountain regions in Afghanistan
Here is a picture of what was called the “Tora Bora Girl” who lived the Afghanistan mountainous regions of the “Tora Bora Mountain Range” where the American military and air force sought to snuff out Afghani mountaineer followers of Osama ben Laden. Osama and his fighters were trained by the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to be the American front line military forces to counter the Russian bid to take control of the Nation of Afghanistan.
The picture, taken by the National Geographic photographer, Reza, is a mere depiction of how the G-d of Israel has planted His people, the Lost Tribes of Israel and imbedded them within the nations of the earth. Change their clothes and put a different attire upon them, and they would fit into many of the northern European countries and America today, yet they are Lost Israelites.

And then we have the people classically known as the “red haired” Irish, British and Scottish in the western regions of modern Europe. They are also found in the eastern regions of Europe today; the major homeland of the Ashkenazi Jews. About 1% to 2% of the human populations across the globe have red hair. It occurs more frequently (between 2% and 6% of the population) in the descendants of the Northern and Western Europeans. It’s even scarcer in other regions around the world.
Red hair appears in people with two copies of a recessive gene on chromosome 16 which causes a change in the MC1R protein. It is associated with those people with fair colored skin, and then associated with freckles, and hyper-sensitivity to ultraviolet light. These peoples include the ancient Cymrics on the Isle of Britannia plus the Scottish and the Irish. They also included the Celtic peoples as the red haired Gaulish tribes of the Germanic and the Belgic people. They have all been identified as the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel.
In the year of 278 BCE, the Gaulish Lost Israelite settlers living in the Balkans were invited by Nicomedes I of Bithynia in a royal dynastic struggle with his brother for control of the throne. Over 10,000 Gauls plus their women and children were divided into three tribes called the Trocmi, Tolistobogii, and the Tectosages. They fought against the Seleucid King Antiochus I Soter (Savior) in 275 BCE when they used Seleucid war elephants and shocked the Israelite Galatian warriors.
Seven generations later, the Syrian King Antiochus Epiphanes IV was now ruler of the Seleucid throne. He took control of the Judean province, desecrated the Temple of Zerubabbel, forbad circumcision and the reading of the Torah in order to break the back of the Jewish people in the land of Israel called Judea in those days. The days of Antiochus IV Epiphanes were soon numbered when the fiery zeal of the Jewish Maccabee warriors took down the army of the Greek Seleucids. To this day, the Jews celebrate the Festival of Chanukah on the 25th day of Kislev; celebrating the day of their deliverance when they restored and rededicated their temple in Jerusalem and relit the new menorah with one day of Holy Oil that continued to light the menorah lamp for seven full days.
As a relic of the past, the dark red or reddish-tinged hair identified in other Caucasian populations can now be seen because of the war of the Lost Israelite Galatians in the year of 275 BCE, and today the modern State of Turkey have populations that have red hair and green eyes.
Then we have to consider the harbinger of threats of genocide to the Jews coming from the region of Iran today. This was especially from the former Jewish Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. And then we remember that in the northeastern regions of Iran, the region of Khurasan where in the land of Media, this region became the homeland of the Lost Tribes of Israel. In that same region live the “Galesh” people who live in the Province of Golestan (Gaulistan) or the “Land of Gol or Gaul”.
The Ancient Land of Khurasan or Khorasan (Ancient Media) in Northeastern Iran to the West of Afghanistan where the Lost Tribes of Israel were relocated in the 8th century BCE – the region of Golestan (Gaulistan) is located to the west of Northern Khorasan, northeast of Tehran on the Southeastern border of the Caspian Sea
The Guidance of the Hand of G-d assisting the Lost Israelites as they moved to a New Homeland
It was in the year of 2009, BibleSearchers Reflections, in researching the Lost Tribes of Israelites wrote the following article titled, “Finding a New Home for the Lost Tribes of Israel.” In this article, we learned that the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel who were part of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in Samaria were taken captive and transported to the region of Khurasan in Northern Iran, Eastern Afghanistan and Western Pakistan in the 8th century BCE. The remnants of these Lost Tribes who have become Islamic are living still there today, and known as the Pashtun tribes living still in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Their heritage and legacy has also been carefully preserved
As BibleSearchers Reflections was beginning its research on the Lost Tribes of Israel, an amateur Orthodox Jewish researcher on the Lost Tribes of Israel, Howard Bahr wrote to BibleSearchers the following:
Howard Bahr – “As you know, the re-unification of the "10 hidden tribes" with normative Jews is in fact a Scriptural teaching. The prophets allude to this re-unification. Here is an observation. I believe this will happen before the Revelation of Messiah.
According to Chazal (Sages of Judah), there is a well known teaching agreed upon by all Jewish Scholars and Expositors. There will be no converts to Judaism after the appearance of Messiah. Conversion will not be an option at that time. For that reason, it would appear that the "hidden tribes" will be re-united with normative Jews before the Redemption, i.e appearance of Messiah.
There would be a modified, abbreviated conversion process, perhaps similar to the process underwent by the black Jews, the Falashas. It would be somewhat different than the conversion process which gentiles undergo, i.e. for an authentic orthodox conversion. I am absolutely certain, though, there will be some sort of conversion process. Obviously, if such people in the millions were declared Jews, it would provoke unimaginable controversy…
The prophet Elijah is suppose to appear just before the Revelation of Moshiach, or to confirm his identity. Christianity utilizes this teaching by having John the Baptist, "baptising Jesus" and declaring him Messiah. Another function of Elijah will be to declare all authentic Jews from non-authentic people claiming to be Jewish. It would appear that this weighty mission of Elijah would have a direct impact on the authenticity of the hidden Jews who would have already emerged.”
In a separate communication with Rabbi Avraham Sutton, one of the Jew’s most revered rabbis with an understanding of the hidden knowledge of the Torah and Mystical Judaism once wrote:
Rabbi Avraham Sutton – “All Mankind will be elevated to the level of Yisrael, I emphasize that this will not be done by any force other than G-d Himself. Please understand that this elevation of the nations is a spiritual transformation. I am not talking about physical DNA. It isn’t to your benefit to believe that you are physical descendents of Israel.
The only way that you can honestly claim before G-d that you are “Israel,” at this point in history, is to dissociate from any and all idolatrous beliefs, go through Orthodox conversion, and enter Clal Yisrael (All Israel) as Jews, who are the only recognizable, verifiable remnant of the ancient tribes of Yehudah and Yisrael…There are three levels to the lost tribes.
- Those who went north (and then east or west), and became assimilated into the various nations and cultures of Asia and Europe.
- Those who re-incorporated back into Yehudah; such that although Yehudah is only one tribe, it is a microcosm, and therefore representative of the entire Israelite nation in and of itself.
- Those who live in another dimension which our tradition describes as "on the other side of the Sambatyon." It is this third group that has retained Prophecy, Kehunah (“Service” like Avodah or the priestly service in the temple), and Physical Prowess once had by all Israel.
We dream of the day when Mashiach ben Yoseph will return physically at the head of this third group. In the meantime, their souls are whispering into ours now. They are our connection to the upper worlds; a connection which is unknown to most Jews living today. At any rate, on a positive note, you need to know that, from the true Torah perspective, the powerful current of “connecting to Judaic roots” that is sweeping through the Xian (Christian) world at this time is FROM HASHEM. No question about it. It’s just that, if you continue to look at it thru the Xian mindset, you can’t help but distort it.
The Talmud says that one of the reasons for Israel being exiled to the four corners of the world was for the elevation of the nations. The fullness of the elevation of the nations will be fully manifested only when Hashem decides. Our job in the meantime is to live according to His Torah to the best of our abilities.”
The Exile of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel
As we have seen in this series, the ancient Lost Tribes of Israel were spread out over the ancient lands of the Medes and the Persians. They eventually, as our research continued, migrated in mass between the Caspian and Black Seal corridor as they traveled northwards from Uratu, the ancient homeland of Noah and Shem surrounding the mountains of Ararat up and through the land mass between the Caspian and the Black Sea where the State of Georgia today was once ruled as a Jewish state by Prince and Princess of King David.
The Lost Tribes then traveled over the Caucasus Mountains towards the land of the Sarmatians along the Volga River and under the Black Sea from Turkey, across the Bosphorus Strait through the Balkans and into European Gaul and the Isles of the West beyond. There they became known as the Celtic and Cymric peoples.
In the hiatus of merging and reemerging out of this amalgamation of Lost Tribes there rose a new people identified as the ancient Scythians, the horsemen of the North. The powerful horsemen and horsewomen of the North gilded their bodies and their horses with gold and eventually ended up populating the Scandinavian countries of Norway, Sweden and Finland in the Northern regions of Europe.
The Lost Tribes as the “Great Wanderers”
It is well known and accepted that the Jews including all the Israelites called the Hebrews, as a people were as ancient as the people of China. The question, we have to ask, why are the Jews not a billion strong as the Chinese? As also well known, of all the nations of the world, it was the Israelites and then the Jews that were hunted and murdered by pogroms, holocausts, genocide and ethnic cleansing, plus assimilated by coercion, enticement or expulsed into exile.
This is the same question we are impelled to ask today. The genetic DNA study published in Nature Communication postulated that 80 percent of the Ashkenazi maternal lineages came from European origins and that the four European lineages, according to Dr. Martin B Richards from the University of Huddersfield in England, were assimilated into the Jewish communities that later became the Ashkenazi populations in northern Europe.
Scholars for the last two centuries have been pouring over the ancient leads to the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. They also were not a people satisfied with the divine judgment given to them by the Almighty One of Israel. The Beni Israel (children of Israel) peoples each settled according to each Israelite tribe and today, the Pashtun royalty trace their Israelite royalty lineage to the loins of King Saul of the tribe of Benjamin. It was soon after they began to wander across the landscape of the earth, some to the east, and most to the west and hence became one of their names; “Great Wanderers”.
As good research has testified, a majority of the Lost Ten Israelites arrived in the European continent in the 8th century BCE to the 4th century CE, first by the early migrations of the Tribe of Dan, whose tribal homeland today is the Nation of Denmark (Danmark) and later the Germanic Tribes of the Ostrogoths, Visigoths, and the Vandals, who invaded Europe in the 3rd to the 5th century CE, toppled twice the city of Rome and left their legacy upon the early revolt of Protestant Christianity against the oppression of the Inquisition of Papal Rome.
The Gold Cuneiform Plate Inscriptions of King Darius at Persepolis
The Tribe of Dan as identified by numerous authors escaped earlier than the Assyrian Exile and followed the pathway of an even earlier migrations of the Children of Israel who scattered from the land of their oppression in Egypt about 1585 BCE during that year of long apocalyptic catastrophes that brought Moses, the Prince of Egypt to the international limelight.
These catastrophes destroyed the Imperial Nation of Pharaonic Egypt that precipitated the Great Exodus of the Children of Israel. Yet, during this year of plagues, dark days when earth stood still when the rotation of Planet Earth came to a screeching halt, numerous Lost Israelites fled to the north and west towards the Bosphorus Straits and beyond to Europe. According to many historians the Danites became participants in the famous Battle of Troy, from thence they continued to migrate into Europe.
The Legendary Hu the Mighty (Hu Gadaru Hysicion)
One of these most ancient of legends was centered upon the mysterious and legendary Hu Gadaru Hysicion, called Hu the Mighty, where “Hysicion” also meant Isaac’s Son (Isaacson). The legends of Hu the Mighty go all the way back to the year of 1800 BCE when Hu Gadaru Hysicion led the first of the Cymric peoples from the city of Defrobane that stood across the Bosphorus from where Constantinople later stood, and with his tribal peoples traversed across the Baltic Region towards the western coast of the Isle of Britannia called Wales.
But Hu the Mighty was more than a mighty warrior for in the Welsh Triads, he “mnemonically systemized the wisdom of the ancients of these peoples whom he led from “Summerland” in the Land of Israel. As the Welsh traditions account, Hu Gadaru was the originator of the use of memorization in what was called the “culture of the intellect.”
To Hu Gadaru, poetry was the “vehicle of memory” and today is remembered as the inventor of the Celtic Triads. This form of learning is still alive and well in the Orthodox Jewish Synagogues across the world, for it is the Orthodox Jew who treasures the pearls of great wisdom imbedded in the Torah that stimulates a young Jew to memorize the complete Torah by his or her twelfth birthday. So also the ancient Cymric from the Isles of the West increased their intellect by honoring HaShem’s creation of creating man in the “image of G-d.”

To other 19th century Lost Israelite antiquarians, Hu Gadara was also the architect of Stonehenge and through his great wisdom, established the Assembly of the Druids and Bards. His legendary mystique attributes him to the invention of glass-making plus the writing of the Ogham character scripts. Yet, it was Hu Gadaru, whose “standard” was also the representation of the “Ox” which was the tribal “Standard” of the Tribe of Ephraim, known for as one of the four “Chief Tribes” of the Children of Israel as they camped at the base of the Mount called Sinai in the four cardinal points of the globe surrounding the Sanctuary of the Dwelling.
At the time of the Great Revelation of HaShem (God of Israel), when the Torah was given upon the Mount called Sinai, the tribes of Israel, twelve in number were organized into the “Israelite Nation”. When encamped surrounding the “House of the Lord” called the “Wilderness Tabernacle” at the time of the Great Revelation of HaShem (G-d of Israel), when the Torah was given upon the Mount called Sinai, the tribes of Israel, twelve in number, were organized into a national force.
Numbers 2:2 – “Every one of the Children of Israel shall camp by his own standard, beside the emblems of his father’s house; they shall camp some distance from the tabernacle of meeting.”
A Large Portion of the Children of Israel in Goshen escaped before the Great Exodus from Egypt
From the traditions in Jewish lore, we today know that a large portion of the Israelites escaped on their own, fleeing northwest from Egypt during the midst of the plagues against the Pharaoh of Egypt. Analyzing the chronology of the Exodus, we appeal to the work of the Australian Astronomer, Barry Setterfield, in his historical analysis of the dating system of the ancient world in reference to atomic time (my) and historical or dynamical time (years) we discover that Moses was born during the reign of Pharaoh Palmanothes. His daughter Merris (‘Beloved’) adopted a Hebrew child by the name of Mousos, a prince of Egypt. Princess Merris married Pharaoh Khenephres (Kha’neferre meaning ‘Ra’s glory shines on the horizon’) whose personal name was Pharaoh Sobekhotep IV, meaning “Sobek is satisfied” (Sobek was the crocodile-headed god of the Egyptians) and became the 24th ruler of the 13th Dynasty in the Middle Kingdom of Egypt.
The Great Library in Alexandria, Egypt founded by Ptolemy I which held the largest collection of ancient texts from around the world was destroyed in a conflagration of fire. According to Setterfield, fortunately the Jewish historian Artapanus from the 3rd century BCE recorded portions of these texts of which portions of his texts are still extant. This gave us relevant dates to the era of the Great Exodus from Egypt at 1585 BCE. The entry into the Land of Canaan by the Children of Israel under Joshua the Mighty Warrior of G-d could now be determined as being about 1545 BCE +/- 6 years when they began conquering the key Canaanite cities at the close of the Middle Bronze IIC Age which ended about the year of 1550 BCE.
With this dating of the ‘Exodus’ in the year of 1585 BCE +/- 6 years, a Prince of Egypt called Mousos (Moses) led the Children of Israel out of Egypt in an era of great catastrophes. As such the birth of the Jewish Egyptian Prince Mousos (Moses) would have been about 1665 BCE, when he was adopted by the daughter of Pharaoh Kha'neferre (Sobekhotep IV), Princess Merris, an after an illustrious career as the prince regent heir to the Egyptian throne fled after he killed an Egyptian in defense of a Jew at the age of 40 in 1625 BCE. This was near to the close of the 12th Dynasty of the Middle Kingdom (see 'Atlas of Ancient Egypt', op. cit., p. 36). As Barry Setterfield wrote in the article, titled, “Creation and Catastrophe Chronology”, we read:
Barry Setterfield – “This is an interesting record from Artapanus. A Pharaoh in the mid to late 13th Dynasty is what the chronology presented above would suggest. But there are two things that make this a more positive identification of the Pharaoh to whom Moses (Mousos) was a prince. First, the only other record of a Kha’neferre is a mention of this name on an isolated fragment from the 10th Dynasty, and there is no other evidence for this particular king. In any case this is far too early, being in the Old Kingdom. There is certainly no other Pharaoh with the throne-name Kha'neferre in the Middle Kingdom, let alone in the 13th Dynasty: it is unique.
However, there is a second point of key interest. Artapanus writes that this Pharaoh appointed Prince Mousos to administer the land on his behalf. Even more importantly, Artapanus states that Prince Mousos led a military campaign against the Ethiopians to extend the frontiers of the Egyptian Empire into Upper Nubia. The records available to us reveal that, of all the Pharaohs of the 13th Dynasty, Kha'neferre was the only one to launch such an expedition. Indeed, a stela in the British Museum tells of this 13th Dynasty Campaign into Nubia in Kha'neferre's reign. The identification is therefore certain. Artapanus knew what he was writing about.
The outcome of the Campaign was interesting. According to Artapanus' understanding of ancient sources, Mousos was victorious against the Nubians. He extended Kha'neferre's jurisdiction at least 200 kilometers further south than any other 12th or 13th Dynasty ruler. This fact caused Egyptologist J. H. Breasted to label Kha'neferre (Sobekhotep IV) as the greatest Pharaoh of that era. At Kerma, beyond the 3rd Cataract of the Nile, a governor's residence was established to administer the province with a statue of Kha'neferre outside. Artapanus concludes his account by saying that this victory brought Mousos such popularity that Kha'neferre became jealous and forced Mousos to flee to Arabia. Then, after Kha'neferre was dead, Mousos returned to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.”
The Ipuwer Papyrus – Leiden 344
Amazingly archeologists discovered a parallel Egyptian Papyrus called the 'Ipuwer Papyrus – Leiden 344'. Here we see a parallel document from the close of the Middle Kingdom of the 13th dynasty of Egypt and the utmost chaos that led to the 2nd Intermediate Period just before the Hyksos (Amalekites) came and took over the country as foreign rulers. It was in early 19th Century that a papyrus dating from the end of the Middle Kingdom, was discovered in the land of Egypt. The Papyrus was taken to the Leiden Museum in Holland and there in the year of 1909, A.H. Gardiner interpreted the meaning of the papyrus and to their shock appeared to be a parallel document recording the same events as recorded in the Book of Exodus.
Today, the complete papyrus can be found in the book “Admonitions of an Egyptian from a heiratic papyrus in Leiden”. Here in graphic detail, the papyrus describes violent upheavals in Egypt, that included starvation, drought, death throughout the land plus the escape of slaves who left along with the wealth of the land of Egypt. The author of the papyrus was written by an Egyptian named Ipuwer. Today it is known as the Ipuwer Papyrus and it appears to be an eyewitness account of the effects of the Exodus plagues from the perspective of an average Egyptian.

As the Egyptian Empire began to crumple from the Ten Apocalypses upon the Land of Egypt, it doesn’t take any imagination to suggest that a part of the oppressed Egyptian Israelite slaves could have chosen to flee during the year that the great catastrophes fell upon the Land of Egypt and the Pharaonic Egyptian empire was devastated for their animal gods were helpless against the strong arm of the G-d of Israel.
Does this suggest that in this year of global holocausts that the ancient ancestors of the Celts and Cymric fled early from the Egyptian delta known as the Land of Goshen? That fact appears in part to be true, for later they left their “footprints” across the terrestrial landscape from Egypt to Gaul for others to follow. What we do know is that many of these ancient Israelites went directly to Britain, Scotland and Ireland in the Isles of the West and also fanned out over the continent of Europe and settled in the unknown and feared region which the Romans called the land of Gaul. This was the land in which the Romans feared to trod.
Hu Gardarn as Joshua the Mighty who chased Fleeing Canaanites to Cymric Regions of Western Wales (Welsh Cambria) on the British Isles
In the Welsh Triads, there is recorded the story about a mysterious man who was called Hu the Mighty. He led a group of Danites across the Hazy Sea from the Sumer Country to the Isles of the West in Britannia. He was the first of three chieftains who were to establish colonies at the furthest land to the west. Known as Hu Gardarn, he was known as a descendant of Abraham and as such, very early in earth’s history fulfilled the promise of the G-d of Israel to the Patriarch Yaakov (Jacob) when he departed from Beer-sheba and went to Haran. If so, then Hu Gardarn was the first Hebrew fulfill this promise given to of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob when he later led their descendants in a migration earlier to the Isles of the West in Britain, Scotland and Ireland:
Genesis 18:13-15 – “I am HaShem, G-d of Abraham your father and G-d of Isaac; the ground upon which you are lying, to you will I give it to your descendants. Your offspring shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall spread out powerfully westward, eastward, northward, and southward; and all the families of the earth shall bless themselves by you and by your offspring. Behold, I am with you; I will guard you wherever you go, and I will return you to this soil. For I will not forsake you until I will have done what I have spoke about you.”
As the Welsh Triads read, the Cymry known as the Cambrians, were the first who came with Hu Gardarn to Ynys Prydain (Isle of Britannia). According to the Triads of Britain as translated by Iolo Morganwg and translated by William Probert we read in the 4th and 5th Triads:
A Celtic Belt made of 2.8 kg (6.2 lbs) of Pure Gold in Guînes, France from the era of 200 years before or during the Era of the United Kingdom of Israel with Kings David and Solomon (1200-1000 BCE) - At the National Archeological Museum de Saint-Germain-en-Laye (Yvelines).
4th Triad of Britain – “There are three pillars of the nation of the Isle of Britain. The first was Hu the Mighty, who brought the nation of the Cambrians first to the Isle of Britain; and they came from the Summer Country, which is also called Defrobani; and they came over the Hazy Sea to the Isle of Britain, and to Armorica, where they settled. The second was Prydain the son of Aedd the Great, who first organized a social state of sovereignty in Britain; for before that time there was no justice but what was done by favour; nor any law, except that of superior force. The third was Dyvnwal Moelmud, for he first made arrangements respecting the laws, maxims, customs, and privileges of the country and tribe. And on account of these reasons, they were called the three pillars of the nation of the Cambrians.”
5th Triad of Britain – “There were three social tribes on the Isle of Britain. The first was the tribe of the Cambrians, who came to the Isle of Britain with Hu the Mighty, because he would not possess a country and lands by fighting and pursuit, but by justice and tranquility. The second was the tribe of the Lloegrians, who came from Gascony, and they were descended from the primitive tribe of the Cambrians. The third were the Brython, who came from Armorica, and who were descended from the primitive tribe of the Cambrians. These were called the three peaceful tribes because they came by mutual consent and tranquility; and these tribes were descended from the primitive tribe of the Cambrians, and all three tribes had the same language and speech.”
“Gardarn” in Gaelic means “Mighty”, and “Hu” was a shortened form of the Celtic name Hesus, whose Hebrew name was Joshua which in Hebrew was Yehoshua (YHVH is salvation). So, was the famous Israelite general, Joshua of the Tribe of Ephraim the same person as Hu Gardarn, later known as “Joshua the Mighty”? The colonization of Hu Gardarn to the land of Britannia preceded by over 420 years by the migration of Brutus of Troy to Britain in 1149 BCE after the famous city of Troy was destroyed. Strange as it may seem, the Aegean attackers have later been identified as being part of the Lost Israelites and Brutus’ name became the namesake for the land of Britain.

“Hu” was a shortened form of the Celtic name Hesus, whose Hebrew name was Joshua; or Yehoshua (YHVH is salvation). So Hu Gardarn could have been the famous Israelite warrior, Joshua the Ephraimite, who was chosen by Moses to finish the mandate of HaShem to “conquer the land of Canaan". Hu Gardarn could now have been one of the same; Joshua the Mighty. As the Welsh Triads record, in his later years, Hu Gardarn peaceable settled Israelite colonists in the British Isles.
When in later years the Welsh Cambrians did migrated to the European continent in the west, they became subject to the German Cymry who were descendants of the German king Cimbrus (1679-1635 BCE) (Reference: Compendium of World History. Pasadena, CA: Ambassador College, 1963. Pp. 48-49). It was later recorded in the third year of Romus (son of Testa and King of Spain) a man known as "Liber Pater" or Bacchus (Iacchus) conquered Spain and brought it under his sway. "He was from the East and his title belonged to "Hesus the Mighty". He pursued the Canaanites and drove them out of Western Europe in 1430 B.C. (See volume II of the Compendium of World History).
Now, if the Exodus was in 1585 BCE; and not including the year it took to get to the Jordan River when the Twelve Spies went on surveillance of the Land of Israel and ten of the spies gave an evil report to stop the invasion. Because of the lack of faith, in spite of the upbeat and valiant reports by Caleb and Joshua, the Children of Israel revolted and for their lack of faith had to continue to wander throughout the wilderness for another 40 years.
If the dating of the Exodus by the Australian Astronomer Barry Setterfield is correct, then the crossing of the Jordan and the attack on Jericho would have been in the year of 1444/45 BCE, only 110 years different to the above statement in the Compendium of World History. After conquering the major cities in the Land of Israel, could now the legendary Ephraimite General “Joshua the Mighty” could have takes a coalition of tribal military warriors and pursued the Canaanites all the way to Spain and driven the “Canaanites” out of Western Europe. It is not impossible!

- Was it Hue the Great who began the great Cymric exodus from Egypt, while Moses with the remaining Israelites headed towards the Promised Land?
- Was the Legendary Hu Gadaru Hysicion an Ephraimite Israelite as the famous Hebrew general, Joshua the Ephraimite, who led in the battles to conquer the Land of Israel.
- Or was Hu Gardarn a Danite Israelite who did migrated to the Isles of the West with a colony of the Children of Israel who included also tribal members of the Tribes of Dan and Ephraim?
These questions we still ponder today! One of the more astute researchers of the Lost Tribes of the House of Judah is the Orthodox Jewish researcher of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel, Yair Davidiy, who in his commentary on the “Book of Zechariah” wrote:
Yair Davidiy – “Welsh tradition claimed that their ancestors the Cymry (i.e. "Cimmerian") led by Hu Gadaru of the Sons of Dan had come across the "Lazy Sea" (i.e. Mediterranean) to the British isles from Defrobane which they said was just opposite Byzantium. In other words Defrobane stood on the Asiatic side of the Bosporus in the place where the port of Defen was reported to be. Defrobane may be some kind of linguistic derivation of Daphne.
The British Welsh who came from DEFROBANE opposite Byzantium called themselves CYMRY and the Scandinavian peoples contained an underlying ethnic stratum from the similarly named CIMBRI of Celtic culture. In Scandinavian mythology one version (reported by Saxo Grammaticus) concerning the origins of their ancestral gods said that they too came from the area of Byzantium, and that one of their ancestors ruled over a city in the nearby Hellespont called Dana!
In Celtic Britain the region of southern Wales, Devon, and Cornwall was referred to as Defenia and from this name comes the modern day appellation of "Devon"! This region of Defenia on Ptolemy's map of Britain is called Damnonia which is similar to the ethnic name Damnonii in Scotland within whose region was the northern Don River. There was another (second) Don River in Scotland further south and to the east upon his banks stood the city of Danum. Defenia (Damnonia) in the south was also known as Daunonia and as Dannonia. Defenia also encompassed or adjoined the Deni. Hu Gadaru who led the Cymry over the seas to Britain was descended from the Children of Dan who paralleled the Tribe of Dana in Irish legend.”
Here we are witnessing the great hand of the L-rd as He cast his wayward peoples out across the nations of the world. The Tribe of Dan was proud of its accomplishments as a global trader with his own fleet of ships along with those of the Tribe of Issachar as they migrated so far that they placed their name across the face of this planet from the Middle East to the Isles of the West in Britannia, Scotland, and Ireland. So does Yair Davidiy point out the obvious; Hu Gadaru was of the Tribe of Dana (Dan) and led the Tribe of Dan from the area of the Bosphorus Strait, near also to the ancient site of Troy, but was Hu Gadaru truly of the Tribe of Dan?
Others suggest that “Hu Gadarn” was of the Tribe of Ephraim. This would seem reasonable as it was Hu Gadarn, whose “standard” was already identified as an “Ox” which was later identified as the tribal “Standard” of the Tribe of Ephraim. His was one of the four “Chief Tribes” of the Children of Israel as they camped at the base of the Mount called Sinai in the four cardinal points of the globe surrounding the Sanctuary of the Dwelling. After the death of Moses, it was Joshua (Yehoshua) ben Nun who was Moses’ chief assistant that was anointed by Moses to became the leader the Children of Israel whose mission was to conquer the land of the Canaanites, and transform it into the land of Israel, for a people who would live the life of Torah and eventually become the “light to the world.”
As we witness now the migrations of the Lost Tribes of Israel, can we envision the Tribe of Ephraim migrating from the lands where the Assyrians displaced them to the Isles of ancient Britannia to the West, with Tribe of Manasseh continuing this migration to the farthest west into the wilderness of the Americas and evolve into the United States, Canada, and Mexico? Can we image the Tribe of Benjamin, who remained loyal to Judah from the apostasy of Dan, and eventually claim her inheritance from Bethlehem to the west of the Temple and Jerusalem towards Gaza and the Great Mediterranean Sea?

Can we also envision the Tribe of Dan, the great apostate, settling upon land surrounding the Seat of Satan at Pergamum to the north and become the prototype of apostasy through modern Rome and the Vatican? Were it not the Danites, who led with the apostasy of the “Golden Calf” with the Ten Northern Tribes? This worship of other gods was later transplanted into the Northern Kingdom of Israel with King Ahab and Queen Jezebel, a Princess from Phoenicia with the worship of Baal.
Yet, we see the traces of the Tribe of Dan as they migrated to the farther reaches of the north as the Tuatha Danan in Ireland, and leaving the legacy of their name in D(a)nmark in Scandinavia and to the outer reaches of the Danube and the D(a)nieper River to the north in the region of the Holy Roman Empire upon the European continent. Can we envision the Tribe of Reuben migrating from their lands of dispossession by the hands of the Assyrians conquerors and heading south of Jerusalem to Egypt, with the tribal remnants of Simeon and Gad through the gateway into the heartland of the South Continent of Africa?
This still does not answer the questions about the legendary identity of Hu Gadaru Hysicion coming to Britain during the years around 1800 BCE. It is easy to suggest that the ancients did not know their dating systems well and that a little over 215 years later, around the year of 1585 BCE, the plagues fell down over Egypt and precipitated the Great Exodus. Yet, is their still another Hu Gardarn even more ancient that could have led a group of the Tribe of Ephraim and escaped from bondage, left out of Egypt and headed to Britain? But why did they head to the Isle of Britannia on the other side of the visible “then known world?”
Hu Gadaru Hysicion as the Guardian of the Spiritual Life Culture of the Patriarch Seth
It was R.W. Morgan in the book titled, “St. Paul in Britain” who identified Hu Gadaru as associated with the Biblical Seth, the Melchizedek. The Patriarch Abram paid a tithe of the booty recovered from his defeat of the five kings from the East who raided Sodom and captured his nephew, Lot and his family. Yet Morgan added a new dimension. According to him, Hu Gadaru, took “Druidism”, the spiritual life system of the Patriarch Seth and his father, the Patriarch Noah, and established primitive Druidism as a worship of the Almighty Creator in the Isles of the far west in its most primitive and spiritual form. As Morgan wrote:
The Apis Bulls that were Mummified and Buried in the Sarcophagus at the Seraphim in Memphis, Egypt
R.W. Morgan – “Druidism was founded by Gwyddon Ganhebon, supposed to be the Seth of the Mosaic genealogy, in Asia, in the year when the equinox occurred in the first point of Taurus, or the constellation of the Bull…When the Druidic system was founded, the equinox on the 1st of May, occurred in the first point of Taurus, which first point is now, on the 1st of May, 80 degrees from this solstitial point. It requires 72 years to recede one degree. Eighty degrees multiplied by 72 gives 5,760, the exact date when Druidism commenced, i.e., 3,903 years before the Christian era, 181 years after the creation of man, and 50 years after the birth of Seth.
The astral bull of milk-white hue, its horns crowned with golden stars, became the symbol, or visible sacrament, of Druidism. In process of time the symbol, as usual, superseded in the East the thing signified, and Druidism became a tauric religion which gave the Crimea the appellation of the Tauric Chersonese.
Extending thence, this corruption became the religion of Mithras in Persia, of Baal in Syria, of Brahma in India, of Astarte or the Dea Syria in Syria, of Apis in Egypt, and in later ages, transferred from Egypt, of the two “Apis” (or calves as they are rendered in our version of the Scriptures) of the kingdom of Israel.
In all these religions the bull, or Taurus, was the sacred animal, and the symbol was preserved free, as far as we can judge, from idolatry by the Gomeridae of Britain. The bull was the sign and represented the great Druidic isle, and the name still, in common parlance, continued to indicate a Briton of Britain as distinguished from the rest of the world.” (R.W. Morgan, “St. Paul in Britain”, reprint from 1869 edition, pg. 12-13)
The Minotaur of the Labyrinthine Temple on the Island of Crete - Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete
According to Morgan, Hu Gadaru, the Mighty, was a contemporary of Abraham, during the patriarchal era. in which the Patriarch Shem, the son of Noah, lived so long that he lived to see, visit, and counsel Abraham’s grandson, Jacob (Israel), the 12th generation from their primal Patriarch, Noah. It was Hu the Mighty who took the spiritual life system of Druidism and transported it from the Middle East all the way to the Isles of Britannia. Druidism in Britain was perpetuated by its successors; Plannydd, Goron, Alawn, and Rhivon. It was instituted as both an ecclesiastical as well as a civil governance and the constitution of the island. (R.W. Morgan, “St. Paul in Britain”, reprint from 1869 edition, pg. 13)
The spiritual life system of the Patriarch Seth spread around the entire world. The traces of Druidism and the animal symbol of the bull and its eventual corruption were revealed in the Menw-tarw or Menw-bull found on Crete with the Minotaur in the Temple of the Labyrinth, the worship of the Bull in Baal of Phoenicia, the dual Golden Calves of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, the Golden Calf at Sinai, the sacred bull in Brahmanism, plus the Apis bulls at the Seraphim at Memphis Egypt. Yet to some scholars, corruption filtered into the spiritual life system of Shem, yet the purist remnant was found in Cymric Druidic Britain.
Is it not significance that Hu Gadaru, whose standard was the “Ox” could have been a tribal leader of the Tribe of Ephraim. Is it of any wonder that the land of Britain that lays to the west of Jerusalem is where Hu Gadaru took his Cymric exiles? Today, the Great Britain on the Isle of Britannia is noted as the land that is most identified with the identity of the Tribe of Ephraim. It was the famous English antiquarian, Isabel Hill Elder who in researching about the Druids of the Isles of the West wrote these words:
Isabel Hill Elder – “The truth about the Druids, to be found amongst fragments of literature and in folk-memory, is that they were men of culture, well-educated, equitable and impartial in the administration of justice. These ancient leaders of thought and instruction in our islands had lofty beliefs as to the character of the one God, Creator, and Preserver, and of man’s high origin and destiny. There is reason to believe that this doctrine included the need of atonement for sin (Yom Kippur) and the resurrection of the body…
It was the Druidic religious way of life that gave ancient Britain certain qualities not seen in any other place upon this earth. Their reverence for the Divine One was supreme, their abstinence from evil was meritorious and their ability to behave valiantly gained the admiration, envy and fear of every nation upon this planet, including Rome. Justice and patriotism were on the same page of their lives, because their lofty codes of moral behavior created and influenced in a profound way their national character. This character was inscribed in the motto of the Druids, “The Truth against the World”. Yet, the scholars bemoan that the history of the Druids was too scarce and obscure due to the paucity of literary manuscripts that proved the “wisdom of the teachers and the docility of the people.” (Isabel Hill Elder, “Celt, Druid, and Culdee” pg. 51- 52)
The Celt and the Cymric as written about in the Destination Yisrael article titled, “The Jewish Nazarene Culdee Ecclesia and the British Cymric Druids” were some of the earliest Israelites that settled in the Welsh region of the Isle of Britannia. There is no doubt that their educational system was the most advanced and far-reaching academic university system in the world. It was where the academic elite sent the crème of the Roman children to be educated for up to twenty years. With the understanding that the Druidic academic system was a Hebrew based scholastic system of education, we can begin to understand why. As written:
Destination Yisrael – “It was Adam Rutherford, in his 1934 book, published in London called “Anglo-Saxon Israel, or Israel-Britain”, he documented succinctly the fact that the first colonization of Britain came from people who wrote and spoke Hebrew. Scattered across the landscape of this ancient isle, Hebrew inscriptions have been found, both in England and Ireland. Rutherford, citing the studies by Jacob Tomlin, titled, “A comparative Vocabulary of Forty-Eight Languages, comprising One Hundred and Forty-Six Common English Words, with the Cognates in other Languages showing their Affinities with the English and Hebrew” demonstrated that early Cymric literature written in Britain was largely a modified version of ancient Hebrew. Even in our modern times, a traveling Jew, arriving in England and Ireland can communicate with a certain ease to native Brits who still speak the ancient Cymric language. As cited on the website called, “The Origins of our Western Heritage Category”, in the article titled, “The Westward Movement), we quote:
Origins of our Western Heritage Category – “The Welsh language, even today, closely resembles Hebrew. According to Rutherford, it is difficult to adduce a single article or form of construction in Hebrew grammar, but that the same can be found in Welsh. Many whole sentences of the two languages have exactly the same words. Rutherford notes that Dr. Davies, the author of a Welsh grammar book, says almost every page of the Welsh translation of the Bible is replete with Hebraisms in the time, sense, and spirit of the original. The Welsh is so close to Hebrew that the same syntax might serve both (Rutherford, 40). Historians place the arrival of the Hebrews in Ireland prior to the Exodus (ibid, 32-33, fn, cited on Origins of our Western Heritage Category, article, The Westward Movement)."
We then have to ask, were the early Cymric tribes with their ancient Israelite Druidic religion, albeit corrupted from their Hebrew Sinai Torah roots, actually a remnant of the pre-Sinai ancient Israelites? Or, did the Druidic roots come from greater antiquity, when they knew the G-d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but were clueless of the revelations of G-d as the Torah from the mount called Sinai? Were not the Jewish people destined to be the “remnant” of the greater Hebrew national movement who destinies were tied to the Torah revelation at Sinai?
Was it possible that the Welsh Cymric peoples were actually a “remnant” of the ancient tribes of Jacob who fled early before the Great Exodus? This was during the final end of the Egyptian slavery and oppression of the Hebrews as the Egyptian Imperial Pharaonic rule was weakening and crumbling from the vast destruction that was destroying the entire agrarian culture and imperial rule of the Egyptian pharaoh?
Were the Druids rather a remnant of the apostate priests that stayed with the Golden Calf religion of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, while amalgamating the Phoenician Baal worship imported by the Phoenician princess, Queen Jezebel during the rule of King Ahab in the Northern Kingdom of Israel. This was during the days of the Prophet Elijah and later they were sent into exile by the Assyrians for their corruption and rebellion against the Davidian rulers, the Temple of Solomon priestly worship and with their arrogance that said to the G-d of Israel; “We know best"!
Yet, the G-d of Israel already was instituting a spiritual reclamation program to eventually bring the Israelites back home to their Hebrew Torah roots. Yet, it would take over two thousand seven hundred years into their future to reach their spiritual elevation so that the Divine One of Israel could bring the final redemption of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel home, to participate as one family with the Jews in the “World to Come?” According to Isabel Hill Elder:
Isabel Hill Elder – “The primitive mind of the Brit was in the worship of the L-rd of hosts, who was the Creator of the Greater of the Great Lights, the Sun and the Moon. They used these two solar bodies, not as forms of worship but with the realization that through nature we learn about the G-d of Creation. Viewing the universe in the heavens was a source of spiritual inspiration from the Divine. There in the crisp day and nights, the sun and the moon were their reflection and inspiration. To view the starry heavens was to them the voice of the Almighty One. Like their ancestral forefathers whom they had lost contact, they knew not even their ancestral identity, even though each one of them knew their ancestral genealogies for nine generations.
They used the movements of the heavenly bodies to fix the order of their festivals and set the dates for their agricultural yearly calendar. It was Strabo who in his observation saw that the worship of the Supreme Being was exalted amongst the British nation. (Isabel Hill Elder, “Celt, Druid, and Culdee” pg. 61)
There are no historical traditions of any other peoples that carry such the volume of legends and legacies that can we matched out with hard archeological facts on the ground, that have been preserved over the centuries except about the role of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. It was they who wandered across the nations from Pakistan and India over and under the Black Sea until they wandered into the dense and virgin forests of central and northern Europe called Gaul. It was a swathe of land that was virtually unpopulated and ready, prepared by the hand of G-d for the final settling place of the Lost Ten Tribes.
According to the prophets, they would continue to live there until the era of man was over. Then they would reclaimed by G-d as His own, redeemed and restored by the spirit of HaShem with an elevated state of consciousness. This time in their restored state, Israel the “Battle Axe” will become one in alliance with the Jews as a coalition of nations seek to assalt the State of Israel in what will be the final GogUMogog war. This time they will seek to take possession of Jerusalem, G-d’s “Solar Rex” capital of our sun’s solar system for the dark forces of HaSatan.
Yet the evidence is still incomplete for larger and more powerful tribal migrations were still in the making, preparing the Northern Europe to become the new home of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. At the same time, the G-d of Israel was also making preparations for the restoration of the future Ashkenazi Jews in Europe whose “mothers of Judah” and families and children were slaughtered en mass by the Roman legions during the destruction of Jerusalem and the Holy Temple of King Herod in the decades after 70 CE and the later Bar Kokhba revolt. The last of the Jewish freedom fighting patriots went to their death by suicide rather than surrender in the “Last Stand” while sheltered in King Herod’s Palace at Masada overlooking the Dead Sea.
Even though, everything looked hopeless, it was the Prophet Jeremiah who gave them the words of hope, for the final redemption of Judah would also be the final redemption of the Lost House of Israel.
Jeremiah 3:14-18 – “Return, faithless people," declares HaShem, "for I am your Husband. I will choose you—one from a town and two from a clan—and bring you to Zion. Then I will give you shepherds after My own Heart, who will lead you with knowledge and understanding.
In those days, when your numbers have increased greatly in the land," declares HaShem, "men will no longer say, 'The Ark of the Covenant of HaShem.' It will never enter their minds or be remembered; it will not be missed, nor will another one be made. At that time they will call Jerusalem The Throne of HaShem, and all nations will gather in Jerusalem to honor the name of HaShem.
No longer will they follow the stubbornness of their evil hearts. In those days the House of Judah will join the House of Israel, and together they will come from a northern land to the land I gave your forefathers as an inheritance…"

Part Three – “The Hand of G-d placed the Lost Ten Tribes in Europe so that the Israelite Matriarchs could Preserve the “Seed” of Judah”
The G-d of Israel claimed that there are only two groups of people who will be restored back into covenant with Him, the Jews of the House of Israel and the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel. Both families, the Jews and the Israelites were scattered across the face of the earth and would become HaShem emissaries incognito sent to elevate the 70 nations of the world, so that even Righteous Gentiles would become part of the covenant. Even those children of Ishmael will be assimilated into the Jewish culture when deep in their hearts they are “safe to save” and willing to live in peace with their brothers, the descendants of Abraham. Only the G-d of Israel knows who they are.
We are quickly polarizing a world in which there will be only two choices; we are either for the Hebrew Israelites; both now part of the Jews of the house of Judah and the Lost Israelites of the House of Israel or we will be against them. This comes to one sobering conclusion, if you are a descendant of the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Israel and you still despise your brothers, the Jews, you will be left cohabitating with peoples who will have a genetic hatred to you even though you think you want to be a part of them.
So today, the G-d of Israel is whistling for you to come back home to the brotherhood of Klal Yisra’el (All Israel).
