1/1, 1875-vol. 8, October 20, 1880. This was a name change from Hine’s weekly Leading the Nation to Glory, started on February 10, 1875, and was published conjointly with his monthly Life from the Dead until the collapse of his British Identity Corporation in 1880. Edward E. Hine (1825-1891), was a bank manager who turned to British-Israel after hearing John Wilson speak when he was 15 years old and spent the remainder of his life propagating the doctrine that the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel had found refuge in Britain as the Anglo-Saxons. These more restrictive views of the inheritance of Israel lost ground to the more ecumenical views of John Wilson and “Philo-Israel” (Edward Wheler Bird, 1823-1891) that Israel was distributed among the Northern European nations, although the Anglo-Saxons held the pre-eminent place of honor. He left for the United States in October 1884 to spread his Anglo-Saxon exclusivity theories there. On him and British-Israel generally see the note under Banner of Israel.
The issues of the journal were prefaced with the blosk notice:
“NOTE. WE DO NOT SEEK TO IDENTIFY THE JEWS, WHO ARE ONLY TWO TRIBES OUT OF TWELVE: HAVE NEVER BEEN LOST, BUT ALWAYS KNOWN. WE ONLY IDENTIFY OUR NATION WITH THE TEN LOST TRIBES; WHICH IS A PARAMOUNT GLORY, AND BENEFIT TO THE EMPIRE, DOING MORE TO SUBSTANTIATE THE TRUTH OF SCRIPTURE THAN ANY OTHER SUBJECT, AND IS MAGNIFICENTLY GRAND.”
The journal carried regular contributions by C. Piazzi Smyth, “Philo-Israel,” F.R.A. Glover, and most of the other leading lights of British-Israel of the time. The journal also carried reviews of books like John Williams’ Claudia and Pudens: An Attempt to Shew that Claudia, mentioned in St. Paul’s Second Epistle to Temothy, was a British Princess and sheet music for anthems like “England and Cabul”:
“Why do the heathen wish to fight, or look with evil eye askance, Where ‘Heaven’s light’ shines clear and bright, On Israel’s inheritance.”
