Note: On this page I may show the four letter blessed *“Memorial
Name” of the Almighty in Ivrit - 
- Y-H-V-H, which
we usually pronounce as “Adonai” or “HaShem”.
At all times treat the most blessed Name with sanctity and when
we even see the Name, we should say “blessed be His
Sanctified Name.”
*“This
is My Name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.”
Shemot - Exodus 3:15.
On this
site I will mostly use a version based on the “Jewish
Publication Society”
Part One
From the image above of the Twelve Tribes of
Israel, which sets the theme of this important study I am sure
that by the time we reach the end we will have gained a great
deal from the wonderful Word of Elohim, blessed be His
Sanctified Name, and I know with certainty that you will have
learned some things that you may not have ever known before. As
of 2021 I have been aware of the truth of this matter now for
thirty years! If you have not heard any of what I will provide in
this study, obviously you may ask, how come you know this, whilst
others have not found this? Believe me, I am certainly not better
than anyone else, for I feel far from being superior, but it is
all due to having a Hebraic mind and loving to search out many
wonderful facts and words from the Ivrit - Hebrew from our
beloved Tanakh, as well as having an archaeological background, I
feel that I have been blessed by Elohim with an understanding of
ancient Hebrew times. Believe me it takes a great deal of prayer,
and loving studying the Tanakh! I wanted you to understand this
as we go on with this study for it is a vital link to
understanding the Tanakh.
As we undertake this study, we should understand that the Tanakh is packed with treasures, and all it takes is time reading it and looking at the root of some words and comprehending just what it is really saying!
Now here is one secret of understanding our Tanakh
better. And I have placed the secret below, for it is vital to
take note of the following information:
There are three very clear levels of
learning & understanding of the Tanakh as given by
These three points or steps are the most valuable guide and it will certainly provide you with guidance and they will illuminate the sheer beauty and the fullness that can be found in Elohim’s most Sanctified Word!
1…
When was the Word given to
2…
Who was Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified
Name, speaking to?
3…
How was His Word understood by
I stress once again, I do believe that these three points are most relevant to our understanding of what the Almighty was saying at the time it was given and what it means to you and me right now, for the past still has great meaning today as we learn from it!
But we also must learn the following, 1.
Never take the Tanakh out of its context, and 2. We
cannot read someone else’s letter and just assume that it
solely applies to us, for as we read it in our modern day
language rather than the original Ivrit, we should understand
that languages change greatly!
Let us turn to Tehillim - Psalm 105:7-10 for I
believe within these four verses you will discover an interesting
dilemma. There are some who have come to me over the years and
have asked “rabbi, is there not a contradiction in this
Tehillim?” Let me tell you this truth, there is never any
contradictions in the Tanakh of Elohim,
blessed be His Sanctified Name. The only contradiction is always
with those who do not comprehend, or checking what is actually
said, and why, and when! As history has proven man has so
frequently caused confusion because they refused to look back
when it was written, and how it was understood then! This
so-called problem is very easily solved, however we must look at
the original Ivrit - Hebrew for clarification! Thus let us now
look at this Tehillim and see what precious gem it will provide
us.
“He
is our
Elohim; His judgments are in all the earth. He hath remembered
His covenant forever, the word which He commanded to a
thousand generations; The covenant which He made with
Avraham, and His oath unto Yitzchak -
Let me transliterate part of verse 8 into
Hebrew.
“) remembers His
covenant forever, the Word He commanded, for a thousand
generations.” Verse 8.
You will note that two special words are used;
“forever” and “everlasting” in
verse 10 and obviously even in our understanding these words
should mean exactly what they say! However, this is not the case
according to some theologians, for they can mostly only see a
problem in these verses!
In Hebrew both the words “forever” and “everlasting” are the exact same Hebrew word, being “Olam” and it also translates as “eternity,” “eternal,” “universe,” “without end.” And there is much more, but I am sure that you get the picture!
However, there is one point in these verses that most simply cannot grasp, and thus it has been troublesome with the balance of these verses, thus I have been asked; “But rabbi, why does it state in the second part of verse 8 that it is only “for a thousand generations, does this not mean that there is an obvious time limit?”
Obviously, reading this with our current
understanding, on the face of it that would certainly be a very
good question, and to be honest I do not blame anyone for asking
it. The truth is, I am always delighted when I am asked, for it
gives me the opportunity to explain the sheer beauty in these
verses. But let me just quickly go back to the three points I
have already mentioned, and here they are once again.
1…
When was the Word given to
2…
Who was Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name
speaking to?
3…
How was His Word understood by
Therefore, we need to remember that Elohim was
speaking to B’Nai Yisroel through the Psalmist and the
people at the time of hearing had a certain understanding that
was obviously very different to our way of thinking both in the
past and today. I mean, if you would transport yourself back to
Of course the children of
It was for that very reason that
For beloved, I have another piece in this
remarkable puzzle and that is not just regarding Hebraic time
that we need to understand, BUT, we all know that the Hebrew
Alphabet are not just letters, for it is also the Hebrew
Numerical system. I am sure you will know the following, but
for those who may not, let me explain. For example A
(Aleph) = 1, and B (
At that time the Psalm was given, the
highest numerical denominator in the Hebrew alphabet was 1,000,
Thus it was just like Elohim was saying to His people Israel,
“My Covenant will be for you as far as you can possibly
count,” and one thousand to Israel was like saying as
far as the stars of heaven and more, it was like saying many
millions, billions, way beyond their comprehension. Considering
Elohim did not say 1,000 years, but He multiplied this 1,000 when
He said “a thousand generations” and we
know from the Word that one generation is 40 years! And
thus, what Elohim was saying to
Therefore, this Tehillim – Psalm 105:8
clearly proves that for example the Torah Mitzvah’s and the
Ten Commandments are FOREVER!
Remember, Elohim, blessed be He, spoke to His people in their understanding at that time!
This study will prove the following truth … that the so-called “Ten Lost Tribes of Israel” theory is a hideous and an outrageous lie, and I am sorry, but I will make my thoughts very clear on this! For the whole ideology is and has been a hideous lie! This is a lie that has so many Anglo Saxons, Europeans and Americans, as well as Australian’s and others so terribly misguided. They are “christians” of various beliefs, but most believe in an evil lie that the “Ten tribes were lost.” I have got bad news for them, WE ARE ALL STILL HERE.
Did you know that the Word of Elohim, blessed be He, clearly proves that ALL Twelve Tribes of Israel and they were also present at the time when the Romans controlled Judah and all Twelve Tribes are still with us today within our community’s who have been scattered unto “the four corners of the earth.” It is just sad we no longer remember from which Tribe we are.
Praise
The truth is that the Tanakh makes it so VERY CLEAR, but, I guess those British Israelites tends to skip the facts,
Part Two
“I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is upon the seashore” Bereshis - Genesis 22:17 (JPS).
We have been told that a faithful remnant of
“For
out of Yerushalayim - of
hosts (Heb; Tzaba) shall perform this” Melachim Bet - 2
Kings 19:31 (JPS).
Therefore it will be the faithful remnant that shall be counted as the Yisroel of Elohim, being all those who love His Torah, and live a life accordingly upon the earth.
And we need to understand that faithful Jews and ex Gentiles who have fully converted a “Ger” are both fully part of Yisroel

Part Four
There have been certain Christians who have
come to me over the years and said; “But does the Bible not
make it clear that God was so tired of His backsliding people
that He finally gave up and he divorced them, for it clearly
states that in the book of
The problem with all those so-called “good and faithful Bible readers and church goers” is that they simply do not know or understand those powerful 3 points I gave at the beginning of this study.
Let us look, read and study the verse from Yirmyahu
–
“And I saw, when, forasmuch as backsliding Yisroel had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a bill of divorcement, that yet treacherous Yehudah - Judah her sister feared not; but she also went and played the harlot” Yirmyahu - Jeremiah 3:8 (JPS).
Has , the Elohim of Avraham, Yitzchak -
Yes, the great I AM,
OK, you may ask, “How can you possibly deduct this line of reasoning for it sound’s very confusing?” It is really very simple, for it comes straight from Elohim’s wonderful Tanakh!
The tragedy these days there are countless
broken marriages and
Although Elohim had been the perfect Husband,
one could hardly term their relationship at that time as marital
bliss. Elohim was the first to admit that all was not well. In Yirmyahu
- sadly
declares “And I saw ... I had put her away, and given her
a
Let us look at the Word Elohim uses here for “DIVORCE.” In Hebrew, it is “KERITHUTH,” which literally translates to “SEPARATE.”
However you will find that in the Tanakh there is also another word for “divorce,” being “garash,” and that word means, “to be utterly removed” – to be “cut off,” “divorced forever.” In fact, this word also has the meaning to “expel,” and “to do away with.” This word is directly related to a “grave,” being “a scab.” As a scab is dead tissue, when it falls off it can never return. Thus, the “garash” type of divorce in the Tanakh means, “to be cast away forever.”
Praise that the word “garash”
was NOT used in Yirmyahu -
Scripture references for the word "Garash" are as follows, Vayikra - Leviticus 21:14, and 22:13. Bamidbar - Numbers 30:9. For "Kerith", Yirmyahu - Jeremiah 3:8, Devarim - Deuteronomy 24:1 & 3, and Yeshayahu - Isaiah 50:1.
In Devarim - Deuteronomy 24, verses 1 to 4,
where the word “kerithuth” is used, we will
obtain the full picture. If a man divorces his wife, she may
return to him at any time except if she has remarried and has
been divorced again.
Now let us look at another amazing scene that is given to us by our heavenly Father in His Word.
After Eliyahu - Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name.
Our Heavenly Father who gave

anger to fall upon you. For I am merciful, says , and I

Elohim insisted on one condition, “RETURN

- refers
to His status as that of marriage with

ordinances of the moon and the stars for a light by night, who

,
‘then the seed of : ‘If heaven above
can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out
beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of .”
It is imperative in these days that we rightly divide
’s
Word of truth which is found in our Tanakh. For we live in evil
and troubled times.

going back in history to this very day there are countless church
leaders and teachers teach that “the Church has taken

so-called “Ten Lost Tribes Theories”.
The question we should be asking ourselves, are the Ten

twelve tribes were well represented in Judea and
The following truths are found in the following reading, and I suggest that you read it and re-read it very carefully in order that you will gain a full understanding of what our Elohim is saying to you here, for it will astound you and provide the TRUTH of the WORD!
“In
the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa (king of Judah), Basha
the king of Yisrael - Israel came up against Judah and built
Ramah, to prevent anyone going out or coming in to Asa the king
of Judah. And Asa brought silver and gold from the treasuries of
the House of and of the king’s house and sent it
to Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who ruled in Damascus, saying,
‘Let there be a covenant between you and me, as there was
between my father and your father. See, I have sent you silver
and gold. Come, break your covenant with Basha king of

with the good king Asa of Yehudah -

simple fact that, when

completely out of context to justify their theories, and

Vayikra - Leviticus 26:44 & 45 (JPS version of the Torah).
“I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore.” Bereshis - Genesis 22:17.
Obviously the whole idea of the stars and the
sand, etc, would have seemed to be massive, but Avraham would
never have placed a number to it. But that was in Bereshis -
Genesis. Did you know that by the time we reach the Book of Devarim
- Deuteronomy chapter 1, Moshe -
Now, you ask, “How can that be possible,
