So before you throw the baby out with the bath water, read the Old Testament before you say we are not one of the 10 lost tribes.

No. "Briton" comes from Bryttas. The word "British" is a 1600's construct.

No, Bryttisc/Brettisc is Old English. Predates 1600 by some centuries. From the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle:
"and se ylca Raulf wses Bryttisc on his moderhealfe. and his feeder waes Englisc Raulf hatte."
Just in case you didn't know, sc in OE is pronounced sh. You will also see Englisc, Fresic, Denisc, Scittisc, and Frencisc in the Chronicle. Are these all Masonically-encoded Hebrew phrases?

No lol, of course they're not. I don't think you get it...."British" never existed before the time I said...why? because it was created to serve our Royal families purpose.

Your making connections where none exist, namely because it is spelt with an -sh not the -sc at the end. Up until the 18th century, there were no rules for spelling or written english at all and there were wide variations depending on the region..
Fact of the matter is that the islands have been called Britain in one way or another for over 2,000 years. Just because the spelling changes slightly over the course of two millenia, during which there are waves of invaders, settlers, raiders and immigrants, that doesn't mean it's some Masonic/Illuminati scheme to hide in plain sight the fact we're all really Jewish.

An old Hebrew word when pronounced sounds like "Gawd". It's where the present day English word "God" came from.

Phoenician became one of the most widely used writing systems, spread by Phoenician merchants across the Mediterranean world, where it was assimilated by many other cultures and evolved. The Aramaic alphabet, a modified form of Phoenician, was the ancestor of the modern Arabic and Hebrew scripts. The Greek alphabet (and by extension its descendants such as the Latin, the Cyrillic and the Coptic), was a direct successor of Phoenician, though certain letter values were changed to represent vowels.
The Paleo-Hebrew alphabet, used to write early Hebrew, was a regional offshoot of, but was rooted in Phoenician; it is nearly identical to the Phoenician one. The Samaritan alphabet, used by the Samaritans, is a direct descendant of the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet.
English is a West Germanic language that originated from the Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders from various parts of what is now northwest Germany and the Netherlands. Initially, Old English was a diverse group of dialects, reflecting the varied origins of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of England. One of these dialects, Late West Saxon, eventually came to dominate.
This is a list of English words of Hebrew origin. Transliterated pronunciations not found in Merriam-Webster or the American Heritage Dictionary follow Sephardic/Modern Israeli pronunciations as opposed to Ashkenazi pronunciations, with the major difference being that the letter taw (ת) is transliterated as a 't' as opposed to an 's'.
There is a separate list of English words of Semitic origin other than those solely of Hebrew or Arabic origin.
