Two other verses wrenched from the context and applied to the Anglo-Saxon race are Deuteronomy 8:18 and 28:12:. “ But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is he- that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may estab­ lish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. “ The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.” These words are supposed to be ful­ filled in the Anglo-Saxon race, the mem­ bers of which are recognized as the world’s greatest bankers, lending to many nations, and borrowing from none. We shall not mention the war debts of the Anglo-Saxon race, for that would be too embarrassing. We ask only for a careful reading of the text, which re­ veals that the statement refers to Israel in the land, and not the British in Eng­ land. “ The Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit, of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee. The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his sea­ son, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shall not borrow.” (Deut. 28:11,12). A word should be said concerning the philological and ethnological claims which have been advanced in support of this theory. It is asserted that the word British is derived from two Hebrew words, Brith, meaning covenant, and ish meaning man, thus' making Brit­ ish—the covenant man. Every Britisher is a Brithish or a covenant man. A careful study, however, of the Hebrew language, under the guidance of real Hebrew scholars, will show the error in such translations. David Baron, the great Christian Hebrew scholar, said, “ This suggestion of the word British being derived from the two words, Brith and ish deserved no other characterization than that of being childlSH.” The British Isles were originally called “ Barantanic,” which means the “tin islands,” because great quantities of tin came from England’s mines in Corn­ wall. The word British finds its de­ rivation from this original word. Still more ridiculous is the explana­ tion that the word Saxon is also He­ brew and that it has the meaning, of Isaac’s sons. An outstanding Hebrew scholar has said, “ Anyone claiming correspondence between the Hebrew term Isaac’s son and Saxon is woefully ignorant of the

Hebrew. Isaac in Hebrew is Yits-hok, and son is ben so then Isaac’s son would be Ben Yitshok.' “A religious system that seeks to jus­ tify its claims by an appeal to resem­ blances in words of different languages, succeeds only in displaying the poverty of its proofs.” The interpretation given to Numbers 23:9 is strange indeed: “ Lo, the people shall dwell alone, and shall not be reckoned among the na­ tions.” ' This prophecy by Balaam is made to mean that a portion of Israel was to be an isolated or an island nation, and is fulfilled in the location of the British Isles. This reference cannot apply to Britain, however, because Britain is reckoned among the present nations. She was in the Roman Empire, and is a member of the United Nations today. When the Times of the Gentiles close she will be found in the revived Roman Empire, How gullible people must be when they accept such interpretation of Scriptures which are so clear in their meaning! When were the following prophecies in Deuteronomy ever fulfilled in the his­ tory of Great Britain or the United States? Read Deuteronomy 28:29: “ Thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore.” 28:37: “And thou shalt become an astonishment, a pro­ verb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee.” 28:48: “ Therefore shalt thou serve thine ene­ mies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck.” 28:62: “And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude.” 28:64 and 65: “ And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other . . . among these nations shalt thou find no ease.” 28:53: “ Thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons, and of thy daughters.” Thus scattered and punished Israel is to be the tail and not the head as stated in Deuteronomy 28:44. Let us bear in mind that this was spoken to all Israel. Note carefully these verses and then read the historical ac­ count of the destruction of Jerusalem in the year 70 A.D., and you will find the fulfillment in part of Deuteronomy 28, as to eating the flesh of sons and daugh­ ters. If you have read the history of Great Britain and the United States, you know that neither of these nations ever fulfilled the twenty-eighth chapter of Deuteronomy.
