Dear Friend:

This information is from Theosophical literature and may not be " from a
standard Biblical point of view."

As there are various standards and modern scholars are constantly
reviewing them, let these figures stand on the merit of The SECRET
DOCTRINE and its records le[pt by the Adepts ( S D I 272-3)

It might be of some help:

in knowledge, for he was well gifted with spirit and

him in the secret knowledge." but the King, Janneus, having 
given orders to slay all the initiates (innocents), Jehosuah 
Ben Perachiah, fled to Alexandria, in Egypt, taking the boy 
with him. ... Jesus supplemented his initiation in the Jewish

Subject: [bn-study] A question for bible experts


Can someone tell me when the ten tribes of Jews got lost. Some dates I
have from a Bible are: 

Birth of Abram - - - - 2166 B.C
Abraham's Death ---- 1991 B.C
Birth of Moses ------ 1526 B.C
Exodus -------------- 1446 B.C

The tribes must have been lost after Moses. So I am placing this around
1400 B.C. Does anyone agree or disagree with my dates. 


I am asking from a standard Biblical point of view.
