The Footsteps from Gilgal

In 722 BCE, the ten tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel were taken into

captivity by the Assyrians—territory now comprising the current nations of

Syria, Lebanon and Iran. In 612 BCE, Assyria fell to the conquering Babylonians

and Assyria’s citizens are scattered along with the Ten Lost Tribes of

Israel. Prophecy states that all of Israel will be restored to their land before the

Messiah returns, but where are the Lost Tribes? Is there any way to find them

today?

In 2001, two scholars, Jacob Levi and Hannah Sanders, have inherited a

manuscript written by a scribe at Qumran that outlines markers for finding

the Lost Tribes of Israel. Problems arise for Jacob and Hannah as others in

Israel and America covet the manuscript for conflicting reasons involving

copyrights, patents, and the emerging DNA industry of 2001.
