Hi Willie,
The file is not that large so let's try it this way.
The first part you have read, but three more parts

What Became Of The Throne Of David ?
‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑‑
How can we trace the footsteps of the Tribe of Judah,
and
the Sceptre of David ?
It is not as hard as you may think.. The answers are
accounted for
in the Holy Bible, secular history, inscriptions,
hereldry,
traditions, language, etc..
From the mouth of our Heavenly Father the nations of
Abraham, Isaac,
Jacob ‑ Israel descent, with the throne of David in
their midst,
would exist and function continuously from their
beginning to the
present day..

The TRIBE OF JUDAH;
Lets examine the record of the patriarch JUDAH'S
immediate family
for an explanation of the manner in which such
prophecieshave been
fulfilled...
This imformation is given in Gen.38; 46:12; Numbers
1:26; 26:19; 1
Chron., chap 2‑4..
JUDAH was the father of five sons: Er, Onan, and
Shelah by his
Canaanitish wife; and twins, PHAREZ and ZARAH, by
Tamar... Er and
Onan died in Canaan leaving no decendants.. Shelah,
PHAREZ and ZARAH
were the progenitors of large families numbering
76,500 according to
the census taken in the time of Moses... The Shelah ‑
Judahites,
called Shelanites, were half Israelite and half
Canaanite stock,
being the decendants of Judah and Shelah's Canaanite
mother...
Judah's royal line was not projected through Shelah;
that honor went
to PHAREZ, the ancestor of David, whose house our
Father established
over His throne in Israel by the terms of an
everlasting
covenant..... BUT WHAT ABOUT THE TWIN BROTHER, ZARAH
?
For now it is needful to look for the migrations of
ZARAH ‑
(sometimes spelled Zerah and Zara) ‑ the very
circumstances of whose
birth caused him to question the right of PHAREZ to
prevail over
him...
The following comes from the book, "Anglo ‑ Saxon
Israel", by Adam
Rutherford....
"The Irish people possess a very ancient document
called 'Leabhar
Gadhala' or the Book of Conquests, from which we
glean the first
inhabitants of Ireland, the Firbolgs, were IBERIANS,
a people who
came from Spain, and settling in Ireland, called it
IBERNE (later
abbreviated Erne, then Erin, and many centuries later
Latinized by
the Romans into HIBERNIA).. It will be observed that
their name
Ibernians is practically identical Iberii or
Hebrews... Hebrews are
the decendants of Heber or Eber a great grandson of
Shem and we have
definite knowledge that Hebrew colonies existed in
Spain from a very
early period.. In this connection John Dunham ‑
Massey states, page
4: 'There is evidence also that Hebrew was spoken
almost all over
Ireland at a very early period, as ancient
inscriptions in that
language have been unearthed not only on the coast
but even in the
very center of the country'...
The only natural route by which Hebrews coming from
the East could
cross the couped at the wrist' mountainous plateau of
Spain from the
Mediterranean to the north coast would be up the
great valley of the
River Ebro, and they stamped their name upon that
large river to the
present day, for Ebro is simply the Romance form of
Eber... In the
Bible, Hebrews are called 'the children of Eber'...
Furthermore, even at present day, the largest city in
the Ebro valley
is called SARAGOSSA, which in some maps and geography
books is
spelled ZARAGOSSA, that is, the stronghold of ZARA...
ZARAH being
one of the sons of Judah...
Notice that these early wanderers appeared to call
themselves
Hebrews, 'sons of Eber,' and not Israelites or any
subsequent
appelation, thus indicating that they lived in a time
when the
offspring of Jacob still called themselves Hebrews
before the term
Israelites came into general use.... That the period
of their
existence was very remote is evidenced by the fact
that historians
place their arrival prior to the time of the Exodus
of Israel from
Egypt... The fact also that they had a stronghold of
ZARA, Jacob's
grandson through Judah, corroborates the conclusion
of the
historians, and indicates that these Hebrews came
west during the
bondage of the Israelites in Egypt, and that they
were of the ZARAH
branch of the tribe of Judah, which branch is known
as 'the line of
the Scarlet Thread', because of the unsual
circumstances connected
with the birth of their progenitor, ZARAH, as
recorded in Gen. 38:27‑
30; in this connection it is remarkable that the
figure of a red
hand 'couped at the wrist' appears on the
Coat‑of‑Arms of Northern
Ireland (ULSTER)at the present day.. All this is
confirmed in
Camden's Historia Britannica that Calcol, great
grandson of ZARAH,
sailed from Egypt to Spain, and then from Spain to
Ireland, where he
founded Ulladh (ULSTER)...
It was from Calcol that subsequent kings of Ireland
and Ulster were
decended, as their genealogies show....
Other historians date the colonizing work of ZARAH'S
sons still
earlier.. With some evidence they say that ZARAH'S
sons broke away
from Jacob's family circle as early as 1700 B.C., and
never went into
Egypt at all... This view is deducted in part from
Gen. 46:8‑27
where the seventy who went into Egypt with Jacob are
listed by
name.. Both PHAREZ and Judah are named, and also the
sons of PHAREZ;
however, none of ZARAH'S sons ‑ Zimri, Ethan, Heman,
Calcol and
Darda ‑ are listed... Either they were not born yet,
or they did not
go into Egypt... The latter is far more probable,
especially as the
names of teo of the sons, Calcol and Darda, figure so
largely in the
early colonization of lands to the west of
Palestine...
This is the opinion of Brigadier General W.H. Fasken,
who says of
the twin branches of Judah: " ZARAH had five sons (1
Chron.2:6),
but they are not included among the names of those
who came into
Egypt (Gen.46:12), though ZARAH their father is
included, so it seems
that this important branch of the Judah Tribe must
have disappeared
at an early date... On the other hand, the posterity
of PHAREZ and
Hezron (1 Chron.2:5; and 4:1) is clearly indicated as
the main
element of Palestinian Judah...
What about the other brother PHAREZ ?
We have already learned that Zarah's twin brother
PHAREZ had became
proginitor to a kingline in Palestine, so what
happened then ? And
how did these two seperate kinglines come back
together in
Ireland ? This will be a bit lengthy, but lets find
out the rest
of the story...
Lets see what took place in the life of the great
prophet Jeremiah:
As Jeremiah looked upon the ruins of Jerusalem and
wttched the
legions of Babylon depart with what was left of its
citizens and the
treasures of its temple he must of felt that life was
over for
him.. Surely there was nothing more he could do
except to die in
heaviness of heart and defeat.. We see his grief and
hear the sobs
of his broken heart in his Lamentations.. "How does
the city sit
solitary, that was full of people! how is she become
a widow! she
that was great among the nations, and princess among
the provinces,
how is she become tributary!... Is it nothing to you,
all ye that
pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like
unto my
sorrow..... For these things I weep; mine eye, mine
eye runneth over
with water, because the comforter that should relieve
my soul is far
from me."‑(Lam.1)
Jeremiah was frustrated and crushed.. He was certain
that he had
failed his people and his God.. But our Father's ways
are not our
ways.. And, as strange as it may seem, the faithful
prophets chief
work had not yet been done.. When Jeremiah dried the
tearsand
analyzed his commission from the Lord he knew that
his work was not
finished... With beautiful simplicity he states it in
the first
chapter of his prophetic book ‑ Jeremiah: "Then the
Lord put forth
his hand, and touched my mouth... And the Lord said
unto me, Behold,
I have put my words in thy mouth.. See, I have this
day set thee
over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out,
and to pull
down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build and
plant."
Jeremiah had presided over the rooting out and
pulling down of the
throne of David in Jerusalem.. After all, Jeremiah
was human.. In
the first agonizing pain of destruction he forgot
that he was
also "to build and to plant" after the desolation..
So what became of the Throne of David? At last we
have came
around to the answer... Jeremiah removed it from
Jerusalem and
planted it in the new place which our Father told
David He would
appoint for His people Israel... Next, we will see
how it was
accomplished.. It is an extremely fascinating story
!!
Nebuchadnezzar 'thought' he had put an end to the
dynasty of David
when he captured Zedekiah and killed all of his
sons... Evidently he
did not know that Hebrew Law permitted the 'crown
princess' to
inherit the Throne when there were no male
decendants... So he did
not harm Zedekiah's daughters.. They did not even go
into Babylon...
According to Jeremiah 43:4 ‑7 they were taken to
Egypt with Jeremiah
and his secretary Baruch.. When they arrived at
Tahpanhes in Egypt
the Lord told Jeremiah that Babylon's king would soon
overrun Egypt
also, and destrot the remnant of Judah who sought
refuge there.
(Jer.43‑44)..
Naturally this warning led Jeremiah to seek a safer
land for the
Royal Princesses who were under his care... Where
then did they go?
Jeremiah does not tell us; but the answer is
concealed in the
peculiar riddle of Ezekiel
17...
The prophet Ezekiel was among the Judah deportees in
Babylon.. He
was visited there by a delegation of Israel deportees
from
Assyria.. "And not only did Ezekiel consult with
them, he also
recieved aprophetic message which he was commissioned
to deliver to
them.. It is interesting and important to know this
message, one of
the last to be uttered directly to Israel... The
address is clear ‑
it is sent to Israel, and in terms which Israel, and
no Babylonian
spy, would understand"....
"Son of man, put forth a riddle, and speak a parable
unto the house
of Israel; and say, Thus saith the Lord God; A great
eagle with
great wings, longwinged, full of feathers, which had
divers colors,
came into Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the
ceder: he
cropped off the top of his young twigs, and carried
it into a land of
traffick; he set it in a city of merchants."
(Ezek.17:2‑4)
The interpretation of this parable is in verse 12:
"Know ye
not what these things mean? tell them, Behold, the
king of Babylon is
come into Jerusalem, and has taken the king thereof,
and the princes
thereof, and led them with him to Babylon."
The meaning is now plain.. Nebuchadnezzar was the
"eagle";
Zedekiah's Royal Family was the "highest branch of
the ceder"; his
sons were the "young twigs" who were "cropped off"
and carried into
the "city of merchants" or Babylon...
The parable tells the same story as Jeremiah 39;
namely, the capture
of Zedekiah; the death of all his made heirs; and the
ceccation of
David's Throne in Jerusalem...
These facts we know from history; therefore, the real
purpose of the
first parable and its explanation is to serve as a
key to interpret
the riddle of the second parable in verses 22 ‑ 24:
"Thus saith the Lord God; I will also take of the
highest
branch of the ceder, and will set it; I will crop off
from the top of
his young twigs a tender one, and will plant it upon
an high mountain
and eminent; in the mountain of the height of Israel
will I plant it;
and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and
be a goodly
ceder; and under it shall dwell all fowl of every
wing; in the shadow
of the branches thereof shall they dwell."
With the first parable as an example it is a simple
matter to solve
the riddle... The "high ceder" was the Royal House of
David;
the "high branch" was Zedekiah; the "tender one" of
the "young twigs"
was the crown princess... Even the Hebrew word used
here
is 'feminine', in contrast to the 'masculine' form of
the same word
used in Isiah 53:2...
Now the Lord said through Ezekiel that when the
Throne of David was
uprooted in Jerusalem, He would crop off a daughter
from the family
of Zedekiah and "plant it in the mountain of the
height of Israel."
Note that the tender twig was not only to be planted
in Israel, but
in the "height of Israel," that is, in a Royal House
ruling over
Israel... After the transplanting this feminine twig
would "bring
forth boughs, bear fruit, and be a goodly ceder"; in
other words, it
would propagate a famous Dynasty and bear many Royal
Decendants who
would constitute the latter day House of David, under
whose shadowing
branches all races and colors of people would find
shelter...
The 'tender twig' was to be cut off and removed from
Jerusalem...
It was to be planted 'in Israel." But Israel had not
been in
Palestine for more that a century....
So where would the 'TENDER TWIG' be planted ?
End Of THE SCARLET THREAD part 2
Part 3 will reveal the 'coming together' of the TWIN
BROTHER
family....
So how could this 'Tender Twig' daughter of Zedekiah
carry the
Royal Family title on to Ireland ? Lets find out !
Surely it was destined to be far away from Palestine
in the new
land which our Father had in mind when He said to
David, "I will
appoint a place of their own, and plant them, that
they may dwell in
a place of their own and move no more."(2Sam.7:10)
Where, indeed, would one expect to find the covenant
Throne if not in
the place where the covenant people were to be
planted ? Without
doubt Ezekiel's important chapter revealed our
Father's plan to
transfer the Throne of David from Judah and Jerusalem
in the East, to
Israel and the Isles in the West..
Is there any history in the islands beyond the
Mediterranean
Sea which shed light on the movements of Jeremiah and
the king's
Daughters after their sojourn in Egypt ?
Do we find the history or traditions of any country
referring to the
arrival of a Hebrew prophet about that time ?
The history and traditions of Ireland are much older
than those of
England and Scotland....
Sir James McIntosh says, "The Irish nation possesses
genuine
history several centuries more ancient than any other
European nation
possesses in its present spoken language." These
ancient chronicles
of Ireland inform us that a sage came from Egypt by
way of Spain
about six centuries before the Christian era, and
that he landed on
the northeast coast of Ireland where Carrickfergus is
now... He
brought with him a princess and a secretary... They
came on a ship
belonging to the Iberian Danaan, and brought with
them a rough stone,
a banner and a large mysterious chest...
The name ascribed to the aged seer was Ollam Fodla,
meaning, "Wonderful Prophet";
the princess was called Tamar Tephi ‑ the Tender,
Beautiful; the
scribes name was Simon Brug or Bruch... Irish poetry
and folklore
identify Ollam Fodla as JEREMIAH and Tamar Tephi as
the DUAGHTER of
ZEDEKIAH... As to the latter, "ancient Irish poetry
is full of her
praises, of her lofty birth, her stormy life in
Jerusalem and at
Tahpanhes in Egypt, her voyage to Spain and thence to
Ireland."
We have already seen how parts of the tribes of Dan
and JUDAH
colonized the Isle of Erin, or IRELAND several
centuries before
Jeremiah's day... Consequently when Jeremiah and his
little party
came to Ireland they landed among their own kindred..
By the time they arrived the Israelites of Ireland
had a King
reigning over them called Eochaidh Heremon.. " The
ancient Irish
exercised great care in keeping record of the lines
of descent of
their Kings.. King Heremon was of the Tribe of JUDAH
and his
genealogy showing his descent from Judah, the son of
Jacob, has been
preserved....
These old Irish documents register one of the most
important
romances in all the world... KING HEREMON PROMPTLY
LOST HIS HEART TO
THE LOVELY TEA, as she was sometimes called, AND THEY
WERE
MARRIED!!!!!!!
In this manner the transplanted "Tender Twig" from
the branch of
Zedekiah and the ceder of Lebanon became Queen Tamar
Tephi over
Israel in Ireland...
As we have seen, Heremon was descended from JUDAH,
through ZARAH;
his Queen also was decended from JUDAH, but through
PHAREZ, the
ancestor of David's Royal Line...
"Thus both of the twin sons of JUDAH became
proginitors of
Kings ‑ the PHAREZ line ruling in Palestine and the
ZARAH line ruling
in Ireland.. After the overthrow of the PHAREZ line
in Palestine,
the TWO LINES became UNITED through the marriage of
Heremon and TEA
TEPHI, from which were decended a long line of Irish
monarchs
extending for a period of more than a thousand
years...
As it is well known, the Scottish monarchs were
descended from
Irish Kings... The last Scottish King, James VI of
Scotland, became
James I of England, and from him the next King of
Great Britain was
descended"...
