The Lost Tribes of Israel Claims by Herbert Armstrong

By the year 1000 B.C.E the Jews had founded Israel as their national state (“Jews”). They actively practiced a very distinctive religion, Judaism. Israel was conquered several times and eventually came under the rule of the Roman Empire (“Jews”). During this time, Jews were legal citizens of the Empire. However, the Jews and Christians diverged quickly; the Jews were marginalized for being different and strange. They rejected the belief that Jesus is the Messiah and other christian laws. Eventually the Jewish revolt in 135 C.E. drove the Jews out of Jerusalem (“Jews”). They then lived throughout the Roman Empire and the materializing medieval states. They lived in their own communities called ghettos because they were not allowed to own land

The Jewish were led to Israel by one of their patriarchs, Abraham, around 1950 B.C.E. Throughout time, the Israelites were captured numerous times by the Assyrians, Babylonians, and Phoenicians. The

Neighboring countries to Israel are trying to rip the Jews from their home, even though it is made clear that they have a deep historical connection to the land. In a recent speech from Benjamin Netanyahu, he explains some of the historical connection of the Jewish people to Israel: “I have on display a signet ring that was loaned to me by Israel’s Department of Antiquities...it dates back some 2,800 years ago, two hundred years after King David turned Jerusalem into our capital city. The ring is a seal of a Jewish official, and inscribed on it is his name: Netanyahu...Ladies and Gentlemen, The connection between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel cannot be denied.” Netanyahu is revealing the historic relation of his name to a Jewish official in Israel thousands of years ago. The connection with the Jews and the State of Israel is truly undeniable.

Before Palestine, thee land was known as the land of Canaan. The Philistines, who were known to be great enemies of the Israelites, established Philistia, which is the biblical name of modern day Palestine (Novak 176). In the Bible, King Abimelech rules the Philistines during the age of Abraham (Gen. 20:32; 26:8). According to additional biblical sources, however, “the Philistines were a “Sea People” from the region of Crete who invaded the Levant toward the end of the Late Bronze/Iron I Ages a time generally identified with the Exodus and conquest of Canaan” (Novak 176). The Hebrews of the time migrated to the land of Canaan, modern day Israel and

Jews, nickname Jewish people, also called the Jewish people, belongs to the Sumerian, race to Europa Semitic race - including milt subspecies, is widely distributed in many countries around the world for a nation.According to Jewish law "card", the definition of all the people who were converted to Judaism (religious meaning), and by the son of a Jewish mother (national) belong to the Jews.The land of Israel, or Hebrew Jews originated in western Asia. The Jewish nation, has a strong correlation between culture and religion, Judaism is to maintain all the Jewish identity between traditional religion.Judaism does not welcome foreign converts to foreigners must pass the test can be converted to Judaism, though in the history of the world, there

In a way they were right. We were not ‘typically Jewish,’ we did not conform to the image that phrase evoked for them. It did not matter that they had perhaps never encountered anyone who did conform to the image. That was irrelevant. They simply treated us as an exception, which allowed them to keep their anti-Semitism intact. (Tec,

Before we can totally dive into how the Temple destruction changed Judaism, we must gain some knowledge of the Jewish faith itself, as well as Jewish terms. One of the first ideas many people may discover about the term “Jew” is its lack of use in the Old Testament scriptures.

Despide having no set borders, the Jewish people lived on as a nation after thousands of not having a homeland. Countries had given up on the idea of assimilation and so had the Jewish people-- even if the Jews did choose to assimilate, they were never treated as equals. According to Wilhelm Marr, Jews were a “flexible, tenacious, intelligent, foreign tribe that knows how to bring abstract reality into play in many different ways.” Even in this sentence there are at least two contradictions about the generality of the Jewish people. This was one of the reasons why Zionism was created-- the Jewish people needed a homeland and what better land then the land that they became a nation. The Jews already had their own land, customs (that varied), as well as official written language (Hebrew), all that was left was for Yiddish, the spoken language of the Jews, to become

When we think of Israelites we typically think of Christian Bale on God and Kings or even the everyday Rabbi walking the streets of Gaza. In this paper I will tell a story of an African that was born in America in the city of Chicago. Leading 48 families to the Promised land of Dimona, Israel, free of sickness or disease, free of crime, and honoring the Father of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Questions you might ask are who is Ben Ammi? Who are the Hebrew Isarelites? Who are the Jewish will be answered in this paper.

Chapter 26 discusses occupations patterns of Jewish occupation during the Middle Ages. Between the years of 632 and 711 90% percent of Jewry lived in a single empire. Chapter 27 goes over the effects of religious animosity toward the Jews. Ever since Christians and Muslim broke off from their Jewish roots, they have both held the Jews in contempt. Originally, the prophet Mohammed of the Muslim faith wished to find his main support with the Jews, when this was not the case and he lashed

So far all the ethnic groups we have discussed have been linked to some type of defined homeland. This is not the case for Jews who over the past two thousand years have lived in virtually every part of the world. Are they or are they not an identifiable ethnic group? Why or why not? In my opinion Jews are not identified as a ethnic group because Judaism is a practice a “religion”that now a days we see people from different ethnicities and background in their religion are changing to Jew. So the food, ceremonies, holidays that they practice is part of their religion on the contrary is hard to say that Judaism is rooted in a specific country; according to theories it develops in Israel but there is the issue with Palestinians that according

The nation of Israel was originally a nation of nomadic people who were isolated and oppressed. After the horrific events of the Holocaust some Jewish people made homes in Israel. The people who made their homes came to be known as Israelites. They were given this name because the nation was named after Israel who was originally known as Jacob (Fisher, 2005). The nation of Israel has always been in a state of disorder and confusion, and in 1947 the United Nations gave Israel to the Jewish people who declared it an independent state in 1948. Israel’s Arabic neighbors did not support this decision and war followed. Battles are still being fought today. Tension also exists within the Jewish community in Israel. There have been many Jewish people who have settled in Israel. These settlers have diverse backgrounds. Some are orthodox and some are not which can bring tension. Even

Jews migrated from Europe in the 19th century and onward and landed in Israel, bringing their experiences, thoughts, and ideas to the Land of Israel. Ashkenazi Jews are the people of European decent and indeed one of the main contributors to the main cultural aspects that are currently present in Israel. One of the ways that the Ashkenazi Jews contributed to society was their artistic perspectives in the form of theatre.

This is further complicated by the fact that many names of peoples were used interchangeably (the Bible does this too). It is helpful to read texts such as the inscription of Merneptah, it is not clear if they are speaking of the same “Israel” that the Bible speaks of.

The Chaldeans deported the Jews after they had conquered Jerusalem. Many people were forced to relocate to the city of Babylon, the capital of the Chaldean empire. Judah no longer existed as a kingdom, and the earlier deportees found themselves without a homeland. This period is called the exile in Jewish history; it ends when the Persians overthrow the Chaldeans.
