Beschreibung
"Dr. Grant was the first foreigner that had ever visited the Mountain Nestorians...he clearly establishes in our judgment the very important fact that the country where the Nestorians reside was the same to which the Ten Tribes of Israel upon their captivity by the Assyrians were transplanted." -Hartford Courant, July 9, 1841
Are the Assyrian, Syriac Nestorians the lost tribes of Israel?
Asahel Grant (1807 - April 24, 1844) has surprising evidence in his 1841 book "The Nestorians: Or, The Lost Tribes." It is this public domain book that has been republished here for the convenience of the interested reader.
Asahel Grant (August 17, 1807 - April 24, 1844) was one of the first American missionaries to Iraq, also doing work in Persia.
In introducing his book, Grant writes:
"If the facts and arguments embodied in this work should convince the candid reader, as I trust they will, that the Nestorian Christians are indeed the representatives and lineal descendants of the Ten Tribes, his attention will naturally revert to the prophecies which relate, either wholly or in part, to the house of Israel; and he will return to their perusal with increased interest, perhaps with clearer light.
