February 24, 2011 journal, I am from the 13th Tribe of Manasseh but not called Jewish. I have now discovered a book entitled 13th Tribe telling of the Khazar Russian converts that converted to Judaism in the seventh century which are the moneylenders of today and the red shield or the Red 'Star of David', a practice known in Germany in recent centuries. Nobody seems to know if the name Jewish came from the tribe of Judah or Jerusalem but we do know that no J existed prior to the 17th century. Before that it was Y or I as the original King James Bible was released in 1611 A.D. spelling the name of Jesus as Iesus. My wave of books from Amazon following up to the book Thirteenth Tribe are coming in and one is entitled The Jews and Their Lies by Martin Luther the father of the Protestant Church. I had copied something similar earlier but it soon disappeared from my website. The introduction to the book reads as following "In preparing to read this book you are about to view some of most sensational and thought arresting language ever to be put into print. The publishers of this treatise by Dr. Martin Luther, the pioneer of Protestantism, do not necessarily present this work as an accurate expression of their opinion. The chief reason for its publication is to give the reader an accurate translation of Luther's treatment of one of the most delicate and dangerous subjects for a public man to discuss-the "Jews". This translation is not presented as a sectarian work or a partisan treatise. When we set out to find the book in its original language and when we proceeded to have it translated, we were shocked and amazed at the interference we encountered from a wide variety of sources. Two different translators were made the victims of intimidation, and only after a rather dramatic experience were we able to complete its translation in spite of its brevity. In effecting the translation of this work we became increasingly convinced that a well organized plot to keep this book hidden exists. Luther's experience with the J-e-ws was very disappointing. He spent many years trying to convert them, like St. Paul, he gave the Jews the first chance at the gospel, but concluded in later years, as the reader will soon see, that his efforts in this direction were futile. This book is published only in the interest of accuracy. If it falls into the hands of any highly technical student of the 16th century German, the publishers will appreciate any correction which might improve the next edition of this work. The demand for this little book is so great that we expect it to go into numerous editions. We find among sincere Christian people a deep resentment over the fact that the work of one as prominent as Martin Luther has been kept so scientifically and so deliberately away from the eyes of his millions of admirers. Some of Dr. Luther's language will shock the reader, but it is our business to give you the exact words of the reformer just as he wrote them, and not on the basis of our agreement or disagreement. Regardless of any other purpose that this translation may serve, it will serve one good and fundamental purpose; namely, this generation is not the first generation which has faced a Jewish problem. Yes, it will serve a second purpose; namely, an alertness to the Jewish problem does not necessarily indicate that the individuals who are alerted are depraved or unchristian. The publishers note: The readers of this work are warned not to conclude that the Luther viewpoint concerning the Jews is necessarily Protestant. Numerous Popes used language as strong and if not stronger, than the language used by Dr. Luther. In fact, the ghettos were established by papal edict, and the congregation of Christian communities from Jewish communities originated in edicts coming out of Rome. The purpose of this note is to inform the readers that the Jew problem has never been uniquely Protestant or Catholic or in any way sectarian. Men of all faiths have agreed with Luther and men of all faiths have disagreed with Luther". If it were not truth they would not keep it secret.
