The royal husband of the Hebrew princess Tea was giv–

father. This Herremon has usually been confused with a
much earlier Gede the Herremon in David's day-who
married his uncle Ith's daughter Tea. The son of this later
king Herremon and Hebrew princess continued on the

Another interesting fact is that the crown worn by the
kings of the line of Herremon and the other sovereigns of
ancient Ireland had

Queen Ellzabeth on David's Throne
In view of the linking together of biblical history, prophe–
cy, and Irish history, can anyone deny that this Hebrew
princess was the daughter of King Zedekiah of Judah and
therefore heir to the throne of David? That the aged pa–
triarch was in fact Jeremiah, and bis companion was Jere–
miah's scribe, or secretary, Baruch? That King Herremon
was a descendant of Zarah, here married to the daughter
of Pharez, healing the ancient breach? That when the
throne of David was first overturned by J eremiah, it was
REPLANTEO in Ireland, later overturned a second time and
replanted in Scotland, overturned a third time and planted
in London? When Christ returns to earth to sit on that
throne, He shall take over a uvE,
existing
throne, not a
nonexistent one (Luke 1:32).

The United States ls Manasseh
From the prophetic blessings passed on by the dying Ja–
cob, it is apparent that Ephraim and Manasseh were in a
large measure to inherit the birthright jointly; to remain
together for a long time, finally separating.
In Gel}esis 48 Jacob first passed the birthright on to the
two sons of Joseph jointly, speaking of them both together.
Then, finally, he spoke of them separately- Manasseh
was to become the single GREAT nation; Ephraim, the
COMPANY of nations.
And in his propbecy for these latter days Jacob said,
"Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a

(Gen. 49:22). In
other words, Joseph-Ephraim and Manasseh jointly and
together- was to be a
co/onizing
people in this latter day,
their colonies branching out from the British Isles around
the earth.
Together Ephraim and Manasseh grew into a multi–
tude, then separated, according to J acob's prophetic
blessing of Genesis 48. Our people have fulfilled this
prophecy.
But how can we be Manasseh when a large part of our
people have come from many nations besides England?
The answer is this: A large part of Manasseh remained
with Ephraim until the separation of NEw England. But
our forefathers were to be sifted through many nations, as
corn through a sieve, yet nota grain to fall to the earth or
be lost (Amos 9:9). Our people did filter through many
nations. Ephraim and much of Manasseh finally immi–
grated to England together, but many others of Manasseh
who had filtered into and through other nations did not
leave them until they carne, as immigrants, to the United
States AFTER the New England colony had become the
separate nation. This does not mean that
a/1
foreigners
who have immigrated into this country are of the stock of
Manasseh, but undoubtedly many are. Israel, however ,
always did absorb Gentiles, who became Israelites
through living in lsrael 's land and intermarrying.
Thus we have become known as the "melting pot" of
the world. lnstead of refuting our Manasseh ancestry, this
fact actually confirms it. The proof that we are Manasseh
is overwhelming. Manasseh was to separate from Ephra–
im and become the greatest, wealthiest single nation of
earth's history. We alone have fulfilled this prophecy. Ma–
nasseh was in fact a
thirteenth
tribe. There were twelve
origi.nal tribes. Joseph was one of these twelve. But when
Joseph divided into two tribes and Manasseh separated
into an independent nation, it became a
thirteenth
tribe.
Could it be mere coincidence that it
started,
as a nation,
with
thirteen
colonies?
But what about the
other
tribes of the so-called "Lost
Ten Tribes"? While the
birthright
was
Joseph's,
and its
blessings have cometo the British Commonwealth of Na–
tions and the United States of America, yet the other
eight tribes of Israel were also God's chosen people. They,
too, have been blessed with a good measure of material
prosperity- but
not
the dominance of the birthright.
We lack space for a detailed explanation of the specific
identity of all of these other tribes in the nations of our
twentieth century. Suffice it to say here that there is am–
ple evidence that these other eight tribes have descended
into such northwestern European nations as Holland, Bel–
gium, Denmark, northern France, Luxembourg, Switzer–
land, Sweden, Norway. The people of lceland are also of
Viking stock. The political boundaries of Europe, as they
exist today, do not necessarily show lines of division be–
tween descendants of these original tribes of Israel.
