The History of the Ten "Lost" Tribes: Anglo-Israelism Examined

by David Baron

Overview

The ten tribes of Israel that were driven out of their homeland by the Assyrian Empire in 722 BCE are examined in the book "The History of the Ten Lost Tribes" by David Baron. Baron examines different hypotheses and beliefs concerning the fate of the lost tribes, including the assumption that they merged into the cultures of the surrounding countries or were incorporated into the Jewish diaspora. He also takes into account the likelihood that some of the tribes may still survive in other places of the globe as separate ethnic groupings. Baron provides a thorough explanation of the circumstances leading up to the exile of the ten tribes and what happened after they vanished by examining historical data and scriptural scriptures. He contends that there is proof of the extinct tribes' ongoing presence in other locations throughout the globe, including India and Africa. Overall, Baron's book offers a thorough and well-researched examination of the past and present of Israel's ten lost tribes.
