This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1853 edition. Excerpt: ... lus during his shepherd life. A very different derivation may, perhaps, be assigned to the title of Rome's first king; and it may be treated as a compound of the words d njn, bvyin, romul, or, with the emphatic Win, romulu; A-shepherd-heretofore, the-quondam shepherd. On the last supposition, the appellation must have been assumed by the king himself, who, like God's servant David, had been taken from the sheepfolds and from following the ewes great with young; and it will bear testimony both to the humility and magnanimity of its royal author, and to the certainty of the legend of the she-wolf. The grand objection to this derivation of the name arises from the fact, that in the small store of Hebrew we possess, mul, (ante), is never used in respect of time, but has reference to place only. On the other hand, we have the word ethmul, with the signification heretofore, and this would appear to be a compound of mul and the particle eth (loviK); whence, perhaps, arises a strong presumption that mul itself, divested of this prefix, might also possess the meaning belonging to the compound word. In either case, romulus must, before the building of the city, have had some other designation; and his first name will, I imagine, be found in the appellation luperc. This name appears also in the word lupercal, (Luperc-ty), luperc'sheight, designating either the whole Mons Palatums, or that portion of it where the she-wolf came to the rescue of the sons of Rhea Silvia

"Strong evidence that the Roman Empire is of Edomite origin ... left our minds in bewilderment ... is one to be studied." -Church of England Quarterly Review William Beeston in his 1858 book "The Roman Empire the Empire of the Edomite" contends that the Roman Empire was of Edomite origin, displaying a great amount of research into ancient documents and traditions, and gives some sound expositions of a few obscure parts of the Sacred Oracles. The Hebrew word Edom means "red", and is derived from the name of its founder, Esau, the elder son of the Hebrew patriarch Isaac, because he was born "red all over". As a young adult, he sold his birthright to his brother Jacob for "red pottage". The Tanakh describes the Edomites as descendants of Esau. Perhaps referencing this familial connection, the Old Testament commands: "Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother." ~Deuteronomy 23:7 Edom was an ancient kingdom in Transjordan located between Moab to the northeast, the Arabah to the west and the Arabian Desert to the south and east. Most of its former territory is now divided between Israel and Jordan. Edom appears in written sources relating to the late Bronze Age and to the Iron Age in the Levant, such as the Hebrew Bible and Egyptian and Mesopotamian records. At the time of its publication, Beeston's research overturned in the minds of some long standing notions concerning the origin of the Roman empire or at least cast considerable doubt upon them. His scholarship, and peculiar line of investigation, enabled him to adduce some strong evidence that the Roman Empire is of Edomite origin. The grounds upon which he conducted his enquiry are, Jewish tradition, Hebrew and Phoenician etymology, and Scripture prophecy; bringing to bear upon each branch some confirmatory evidence from either heathen historians or Christian philologists. The book is worthy of attention, and is one to be studied, not glanced at. Black Hebrew Israelites (also called Black Hebrews, African Hebrew Israelites, and Hebrew Israelites) are groups of Black Americans who believe that they are descendants of the ancient Israelites. Black Hebrews adhere in varying degrees to the religious beliefs and practices of both Christianity and Judaism. One belief often expressed is a belief that Europeans are descendants of Israel's twin brother Esau, also known as Edom. (Genesis 25:25).
