No 3 Ten Lost Tribes. &LECTURE DELIVERED BY THE REV, J. It, GLINDY, IN THE METHODIST CHURCH, EXETER, AUG. 19t1i 1880. [CIONTINUED mom LAST WEEK] . (L) The second position assumed by the advocates of the Anglo:Israel theory is that the ten tribes did not :shred in the return of Judah and Benjamin from eaptivity, but remained iu exile, and in some way„ which is not made clear, found their way to the British LICA, and from them has sprang the Anglo- Saxou race. Now, I am prepared to show that the "'Ian Tribes," or. Israel- itish portion of the nation did retut n frouyeantivity and became permanently "tutted with the Jewish portion as one ki gdom It will be necessary first of all to re- fer as bristly as possible to the history of the two nations from the time of their segeretiou to that of their final During the reigu ef David and Solo- man thet4raelitish nation attained its greatest extent and power ; then the promise of God to Abraham that they possess the land front the"River of Egypt to the great river Euphrates" Was fulfilled. • Solomon "reigned over all the hinge of the river even unto the land of thePhilistines,and the border of Egypt:" --2 Chron., 9 o. 26 v. Bat when, after a splendid reign of forty yeart,Sol- otnon slept with his fathers, and his son Rehoboam ascended the throne, ell Israel came to him and 8aid, "Thy father meile our yoke grievous: now, therefore, eo.se thou somewhat the grievous servitude of thy father and his heavy yoke that he put npon no and we will serve thee." After three days, Rehoboam, who had foolishly listened to the advice of hie younger councillors, answered them ; "My father," said he, "made year yoke heavy, t will ad l to, your yoke ; my father chastised you with whips,but I will chastise yon with soorpions." Immediately the cry was raised, "To your tante. 0 brae)," the, nation was rent asunder, Judah andl Benjamin remained faithful to Rtho boar and the remaining ten tribes made Jeroboam their king, B. C. 075. But this division was not by any means 00 exact as might at first be sopposed. There were many of 'dire children of Israel who dwelt in the eitiee of,Tudah, and Reholmatu reignedever them t."-2 (Aron., 10 o. 17 v.

"For the Livites left their suburbs and their poerietsione and came to Judah and jernsidern. for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executiug the priest's office unto the Lord," elnd after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the Lord God of Israel came to Ternsalein, to encrifice unto the Lord God of their fathers. So they et, ength- eried the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehotrain, the son of Soloman strong. three years :"-2 Citron., 11 e. 13, 14, 16, 17 v. It will thus be seen that during the first three years of the reign of Rehoboam the entire tribe of Levi, and after them the more godly out of all the other tribes placed themselves under the government of Rehoboam and thtts ereatly strengthened the kingdom nf Judah, while the kingdom of Israel was! made oorreepo»dingly weeker. But it will also be seen that this process was continued during the whole period ef the sepersttion, being especially inenifest during the lder) of some of Jndalds moat righteous kings.

"And Hezeldah sent to all Israel and Jrulah and wrote letters also to Bahrain; and Manasseh that they should come to the 'louse of the Lord at Jerusalem, to keep the pessover un- do the Lord God of Israel." In re- sponse to this invitation, "divers 'of Asher and Maeassah and of Zebulon humbled themselvesouid came to Jeru- ealem." Also a "multitude of people even many of Ephrairreaud Manasseh, Isachar and Zeleilona were present, "And all the congregation of Judah with the priests and Levites and all the congregation that came out of the land of Israel, and 'the strangers that oatne oat of the laud of Israel, and that dwelt in Judah rejoiced, So there VMS great joy in Jerusalem ; for since the time of Solomon, the sou of David, King of Israel, there was not the like in Jerusalem :" -2 Ohron.,30 o., 1, 11, 18, 25, 26 v, B.

BTJIJLEN, matpor Loudon. out, The Kingdom of Judah continued for a period of more than a hundred years longer, during which they, en- joyed a large share of prosperity, es- pecially in the reams of Hezekiah and dosiali, the first of whom reigned twenty five years and the latter thirty- nine. During the reigu of Josiah an- other importaot passover was celebrat- ed, of which it was said, "There was no passover like unto that kept in Is- rael froto the days of Samuel the pro - plait; neither did all the Kings of Israel keep snch a passover its Josiah kept, aud the priests and the Levites, and all .Tudah and Israel tbat were present aud the inhabitants of Jerusalem :-2 Chron., 35 o., 17, 18 v. it will thus be seen that even theta when Israel as a nation had been for a period of one hundred years in captivity, there was sill to be iound a sufficient number, and they the most God-fealiug, of that part of the nation wbich was called "fame'," to form a most , important factor in this grand passover celebra- tion at Jerusalem. 16 will also be seen that the jealousy which existed in the first place against Judah and which had been largely tbe cause of the disruption had been greatly modified, if not eutirely reineveil, so that the temple at Jerusalem 'was once more a rallying point for the eoattered tribes, and those who still remembered the divine promises and tie chums which God had ou theirservice, gladly availed themselves with thd privilege of unit- ing with their brethaen of Jedali in the worship of the true God, and shared with them in the offerings of his house. And thus was the slaty erepared for the anal amalgamation of Judah and Israel at the time of the restoratiou. for, and there shall be none, and the sins of Judah. and they shall not be found ; for I will pardon them whom reserve t"—Jer., SO 6., 17-20 v. Here Israel and latish are represented as sharing together the blessings of par- don and restoration,the tribes of Israel having their location fixed in their former habitations on Carmel,Basham, Mount Ephraim and Gilead. Isaiah porphesying of this restoration says : "And it shall come to pave iu that day that the Lord shall set his 'hand again the second time to recover the rennet* of Ms people which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egyyt, and from Patbros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from ahinar, and from Hamath; and from the islands of the sea. Art'd shall set up an ensign for the natioille, and shall assemble the outcasts of Lintel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah • feom the four corners et the earth. The euvy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the ad- versaries of Judali shall be cut off ; Ephraim shall not etre/ Judah and Judah shall not vex Bahraini :"-Isaiah 11 o., 11-13 v. The meaning of this prophecy cannot be misunderstood. The localities mentioned are those to which Israel and Judith were removed. The cauae of the former division is taken away, "the envy of Ephraim shall depart," and the subsequent bar - molly subsisting between the two sec- tion now united is spoken of; •LEphraim shall not envy Judah and Judah shall not vex Ephraim." The prophet Hosea also declares, "Then shall the children of Judah and the "children of Israel be gathered together, and ap- point themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land td— Hosea, 1 di., 11 v. Propheeiesaf shed. lar import might be greatly milltplied. I will only refer to one more and that is by far the most important for several reasons.- Eatektel was himself one of the captivity, his location was with those captives who were by the river Chebar, and he was thus brought Into' close relationship with the Israelitieh portion of the captivity, and much of his prophecy was addressed to them personally. As a prophet and priest of tbe Lord, he was enteutted by God with a special message to this portion of the captivity, and any oue who reads his prophecy will see that his televise was to bring about a moral reformation aud to excite in them snob hopes, that when the opportunity came they might be prepared to return to their own land. That porion of his prophesy to whieli I would specially calf your at- tention you will find in the thirty- seventh chapter. The prophet having been carried by the spirit was laelveatel in a valley full of bones, very dry, r.nd was asked, "can these bones live 21' He was then constaauded to prophesy unto these bones and say "0 ye dry bouas, hear the word of the Lord," and as he prophesied there was asheilliug,. "arid the bones earns together, bone to bis bone." and they were clothed with sinews and flesh, and finally breath oame into them, "aud they stood up_ upou their feet an exceeding great army." "Then be said unto me,. son of man.thsee bones:are the whole house of Israel ; behold, they say our bones are dried and our hope is lost ; we are cut off for our parts. Therefore pro- phesy and say unto them, thus saitb the Lord God: Behold, 0 My people, I will open your graves, and enuse you to come up out of your graver', and bring you into the hind of Israel :" —Ezekiel, 87 o., 11, 12 v. Again,"the word of the Lord" came to the prophet, sayiug : "Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, aud write mom it, For Judah, aud for the children of Israel his companions ; then take an - I shall now proceed to prove that other stick, and write upon it, For Israel shared in the return from the Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for captivity with Judith and were united rill the house of Israel his companions. to them as one Dation. And first I lud join them one to auother into oue will refer you to those prophecies which stick, and they shall become oue in declared that this should be the case. thine hand. And when the children of thy peopletshall speak unto thee,say- ing : Wilt thou not show ns what thou meanest by these ? Say «n unto them, thus says the Lord God : Behold I will take the fain of Joseph which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes land. And I will make them one na- tion in the land upon the mountains of Israel ; and one king stied be king to them all ; and they ellen he no mot s two nations, neither shallthey be divid- ed into two kingdoms any more at all:" 3—ttzekiel,.37 o., 11-22 v. Looking at this prophecy in the light of the fact that Ezekiel was specially corn- miesioned as a prophet to the Israel- itish portirn of the captivity, that °- pi be DO doubt as to its meaning. It 4 - was addressed to them lust fifty-one years prior to the first return of the captives, it was intended, to inspire then with the hope of return,it pointed out them God's purpose as to the re- union with Judah, and to their future identity as "ane 'laden," it doolaros emphatically that God "will gather them from a:nong tbe heathen whither they bo gone, and bring them into, their own land." We might safely rest the whole question of the return, of Israel to their own land and their amalgamation with Judah. as "one nation'' on this prophecy alone,but it will be instructive to glance for a few momenta at those hitetorical portions of the sacred record in whioli ie fulfilment et those prophecies is clearly set forth. We shall then find that what the prophets declared during a period a 250,yearseshouldtake plaoe. actually Rid take place,. that.
