| Summary |
"The Lost Ten Tribes, and 1882" by Rev. Joseph Wild, D.D. is a historical and theological discussion likely written in the late 19th century. This work explores the fate of the ten lost tribes of Israel, proposing connections between these tribes and modern groups, particularly the Anglo-Saxon race. Wild's central thesis indicates that the promises and prophecies regarding Israel's future are still relevant and can be seen in the historical and contemporary events involving Great Britain and America. The opening portion of the text serves as a preface, wherein Wild outlines his journey and motivations for writing the discourses contained within. He emphasizes the importance of understanding Biblical prophecies, particularly those concerning Israel, and critiques traditional interpretations that conflate various Biblical groups. Wild expresses his conviction that God has a divine plan for the chosen people, which he believes includes present-day nations such as England and the United States. He suggests that these countries are fulfilling God's promises of expansion, prosperity, and a divine purpose as the descendants of the Ten Lost Tribes, and argues for a renewed understanding of their role in God's plan.
