Thank you, Willie, for that excellent historical account of the Israelites--proof that jews were never Israelites, nor could they ever be.
Sincerely,
John

Subject: [ZOGs_WAR] Blessings and Curses of Ancient Israel Found in
America's History - 6
For forty years Israel wandered in the wilderness and was schooled in
Kingdom administration. Under the leadership of Moses Israel came out of
slavery in Egypt and they entered the promised land under Joshua as a people
possessing perfect laws and a judicial and administrative system par
excellence. In Palestine Israel was first under judges, then under kings,
and finally the House of David was established to perpetuate the kingly line
in Israel forever.
Contemporary with Israel's history, recorded in the Bible from Egypt to
Palestine, is the history of the line of Zarah, a son of Judah, whose
descendants broke away from Israel, before the Exodus, and founded colonies
around the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. The record of this early
Milesian civilization, whose colonies reached the British Isles, is found in
secular history. Let us not forget these people are included in the
Abrahamic Covenant. The British Isles are one of the appointed places where
Nathan the prophet declares the throne and the people would be at rest:
"Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them,
that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall
the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime." ( 2 Samuel
7:10)
For a second witness:
"Also I will ordain a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and
they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall
the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning," (1
Chronicles 17:9)
This was not Palestine for when this was uttered all Israel was dwelling
there. At the very time the prophet was telling David of the appointed place
the advance outposts of Israel had already taken possession of the land to
which, later, the tribes of Israel migrated. It is Israel in the Isles to
whom Isaiah directs his message when he says:
"Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people from far." (Isaiah 49:1)
It was during the reign of King Rehoboam in Palestine that the Kingdom was
divided into the northern ten and ½ tribed Kingdom of Israel with Samaria as
their capital and the southern two ½ tribed Kingdom of Judah with Jerusalem
as their capital. The northern kingdom was known as the House of Israel
while the southern kingdom was the House of Judah. One tribe of the northern
kingdom, Benjamin, was lent to the House of David for the following purpose:
"That David my servant may have a light always before me in Jerusalem, the
city which I have chosen me to put my name there." (1 Kings 11:36)
This looks forward to a time to come when the Throne of David, removed from
Jerusalem, would need a light bearer to be informed of events which would
take place in the City of David.
"I CALL HEAVEN AND EARTH TO WITNESS AGAINST YOU THIS DAY, THAT YE SHALL SOON
UTTERLY PERISH FROM OFF THE LAND WHEREUNTO YE GO OVER JORDAN TO POSSESS IT;
YE SHALL NOT PROLONG YOUR DAYS UPON IT, BUT SHALL UTTERLY BE DESTROYED. And
the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in
number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you. And there ye
shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither
see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. But if from thence thou shalt seek the
LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and
with all thy soul. When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are
come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God,
and shalt be obedient unto his voice; (For the LORD thy God is a merciful
God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the
covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them." (Deuteronomy 4:26-31)
The first persecution of Christians under the Roman
Empire was instigated by the Jews. Until a few years ago
historians generally accepted the statement of Tacitus that
Nero had the followers of Christ thrown to the lions to
divert suspicion from himself after he had caused Rome to
be burned. But modern scholarship, availing tiself of other
sources (Suetonius Clement of Rome, Tertullian) has made it
appear that the persecution had nothing to do with the fire.
Pooppaea, the wife of Nero, is known to have protected the
Jews and was a Jewess. Several fairly recent historians
believe that the Jews of Rome, working through her and
others of their religion in the Imperial court, directed
Nero's attention to the Christians and persuaded him that
they were guilty of various crimes. Vide Leon Hardy Canfield,
The Early Persecution of the Christians, New York 1913;
J.F. Bacchus, The Neronian Peseuction, Dublin Review, 1908,
pp. 287 et seq; Allard, Histoire des persecutions pendant
les deux preieres siecles, Paris, 1903, pp. 43 et seq.;
E. Th. Klette, Die Christenkatastrophe unter Nero, Tubingen,
1907, p. 18, the other referenes given by Mr. Canfield in this
interesting and scholarly study. Jewish scholars admit the
animus of the Jews against the Christians and the extraordinary
favor shown to the former by Poppaea: for example, vide Ismar
Elbogen, History of the Jews, Berlin, English Translation,
Cincinnati, 1926)
