ISRAEL was not only to be high above the Gentiles, but, as a nation, a separate people from the Gentiles, and that for ever. " I am the Lord your God, which have separated you from other people" (Lev. xx. 24). "I have severed you from other people, that you should be mine" (verse 26). "You only have I known of all the families of the earth " (Amos iii. 2). " Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the Lord ; yet I loved Jacob and I hated Esau" (Mal. 1, 2). Hence it becomes an utter impossibility for the seed of the lost Ten Tribes to have become amalgamated with any Gentile people. There must ever exist a marked and well-defined line of difference between them and the Gentiles. Gentiles may amalgamate with Gentiles and lose all trace of their nationality, but the seed of Israel must ever remain separated; they must exist a people that cannot become naturalised among other nations-i.e., of course to any appreciable extent. There may be individual exceptions, as in the case of Esau, who took to wife Judith,, the Hittite, "which was a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah" (Gen. xxvi. 35). But Israel, even in their separate tribeships, must exist as long as time exists. This is sufficiently proved. by the' fact that upon their return the land is already apportioned with :divisions for each tribe (see the 48th chapter of Ezekiel), where the land is divided in a way, by the Almighty, that it never was before. The sealing has not taken place. ''When it does, 12,000 from each of the Twelve Tribes mentioned by name will be sealed (Rev. vii. 4-8), showing that the tribes,' therefore the nation, must yet exist, separated from the Gentiles. The gates of the New Jerusalem prove this, for each gate is named after a tribe (Rev. xxi. 12), so that it must be a violation of truth, to assert that the. tribes of Israel are non-existent.

THE IDENTITY maintains that the British people are a separated people-that neither Scotchmen, Englishmen, nor British can ever lose their Identity-that it ' is not our Custom to naturalise elsewhere. Hosts of foreigners do with us; but we, as a rule, never with them. There may be Esaus, but they are the exception, and generally regret it. Gentiles may merge with other Gentiles and lose trace Of their nationality, but a foreigner can never merge into the British stock so as to become unknown as being of foreign extract.

This is surely an Anthropological Identity.
