De första bröder som Gadman samlade i Davis Lane i Trenchtown var Naphtali the first och Dan the first. Sedan rullade allting på som jag beskrivit tidigare. I Shashamene, det landområde som Selassie I ursprungligen skänkte till rasta startades ett hus men Vernon grundade även Jamaican RasTaFarian Development Community där som är en organisation som har medlemmar av ; Nyahbingi, Bobo Shanti och Twelve Tribes of Israel.
Här fortsätter intervjun! Ge tack och pris till den högste, Selassie I!
How does this fit in with the teaching of, not necessarily of the 12 Tribes of Israel, but of Rastafarians in general, who, because of the (well, at first you answered that anyway about the divinity of Haile Selassie and you've actually made a distinction between Haile Selassie and Jesus Christ). But many Rastafarians don't see anything outside of Haile Selassie which means that he is the final king to sit upon the throne, how do we resolve that?
"Well, I have said before, he's not the final king, but I strongly believe that Christ is going to sit upon the throne, but HIM His Majesty is not the final king, you have more kings, because Amha Selassie is there, he is not there, and then you have Yacob supposed to be seated shortly."
Do you see the monarchy being restored in Ethiopia, as a matter of fact, because what is happening in Ethiopia now, we know that Amha Selassie tried to go back recently, we don't know what happened with that, he didn't go back but do you see the restoration of the monarchy in Ethiopia?
"At Now they don't accept the monarchy, but at least there is an amount of people is there that looking forward, because that is the only person they believe could able to get back the unity of the Ethiopian people."
How do you see it happening, the restoration of the monarchy?
"When the time come, you know, we will overturn and overturn, and who's right it is them will give it to them, so, when the fullness of time come, we don't know when , but we're sure that it must happen."
Is this according to prophecy? That the monarchy must be restored?
"Oh yes, Oh yes."
Is the monarchy a dinosaur in the age of democracy do you think? and could it be could it be anything more than a constitutional monarchy?
"Well I don't fully overstand that,"
Right now, when Amha Selassie was trying to return, the last time, he was told that he could only come back as a constitutional monarch with no powers whatsoever. Do you see anything else happening apart from that, or do you see the monarchy restored at such a point, where the monarchy is once again as it was in the days of Haile Selassie, ruling in Ethiopia
"Well, I keep saying over and over that when the time come, then we sure that we are going to have a king to seat up. It is going to take some time, but he is going to be seated for sure."
Rumors have been circulating that Prince Zere Yacob is mentally deranged and therefore not fit to succeed. What light can you shed on this matter?
"Well I bredda Gad don't know him as somebody that is mentally disturbed. He was here the last time and nobody see him and such a like, him is functioning normal as far as I understand, when I left him in Manchester. But I don't see him as a deranged person. It really, you know, unbelievable."
I must point out at this point, I don't know if you want me to do this, but Zere Yacob is very close to the 12 tribes of Israel.
"Oh yes he is very close. He's .... with bredrin them and sister in Manchester."
Is he a member of the 12 Tribes of Israel?
"He's a member of the 12 Tribes of Israel yes"
he future of the monarchy. Is it a part of the doctrine of 12 Tribes of Israel, that the monarchy must be physical restored, you're touched on that before that it is prophecy, but is it a part of your teaching?
"Yes, that is a part our teaching that the monarchy must be restored, just like how the sun and the moon and the stars is there, that nobody can remove them, same way, monarchy must restore."
The 12 Tribes of Israel currently has the largest settlement on Shashamane. Is Ethiopia the final home and what about the rest of Africa?
"Just Shashamane is not the final home. The whole of Africa, because One King shall rule over them all. And also, the whole of Africa, especially Jerusalem."
Okay, you say the whole of Africa, especially Jerusalem, and I am sure a lot of people are saying "but Jerusalem is not Africa".
"Yeah, Jerusalem is Africa. Jerusalem is a part of Africa is only certain things happen, and it break away. But there is no argument that Jerusalem is not a part of Africa, we are sure!"
So when we speak of a new Jerusalem, what are we talking of?
"When we are talking about a new Jerusalem, we are talking about Jerusalem in Asia Minor. New Jerusalem is a different thing all entirely, definition."
I wanted to look just a little bit more at that, Jerusalem being the final home, all of Africa, especially Jerusalem. How is that, if you will, how will that work? How will that happen?
"Consider they take out a lot of Ethiopians there if you notice the history show you that they always were saying that the people in Ethiopia is not the Jews. Alright? But then suddenly there is a changes, that them is the Jews, them take out most of them and carry them Jerusalem. So we see everything clear there that the people who is Israel and was in Ethiopia, them ancestor was from Jerusalem, and them send them back. So here is some of us out here, now it was quite interesting that, those who them take from there, and they carried there, they say they are the tribe of Dan, so them might then identify themself, as one of the tribes, of Dan. The people them who leave and go to Jerusalem, that them take out from Eritria, Falashas, yeah."

Han är iskall.. den där Gad.. här för övrigt träffat honom vettu.. yes.. det är sant..
Lite Off fråga.. men vad anser du om den koptiska kyrkan?
Ah, isåfall gissar jag att vi känner delvis samma människor. Träffade du honom i Stockholm när det begav sig? Det var innan jag vart engagerad.
Varför lämnade du rörelsen?
Koptiska kyrkan är mycket intressant. Ska återkomma till den senare! Nu är det filmdags :)
Länge leve vår älskade Profet Gadman. The angels rejoice in heaven! Låt oss fortsätta detta arbete som är laggt framför oss alla av denna lilla stora man. Give thanks. Rastafari!
Well.. detta hände i början på 90-talet.. 94 tror jag bestämt..
Jag var aldrig med i rörelsen.. men drogs till den och hängde med dem på blixtvägen ett litet tag..
Du vet.. jag var för ung och gled sakta men säkert tillbaka in i likgiltighetens feg-ateism..
Men det vore nog inte fel att säga att twelwe tribes sådde ett litet frö som senare skulle ge rik frukt :)
Ah, men då har vi iaf garanterat gemensamma bekanta! Vad jag förstår så är du nu katolik, vilken är din syn på Gadman idag?
Strul med mitt nick.. men det är jag Tubbo..
Jag har bara bra minnen av den kvällen och ser honom som en viktig och framstående teolog..
Han har ju betytt väldigt mycket för väldigt många..
Jag när en väldigt stor respekt för rörelsen :)
Jag änvänder fortfarande det stickade( eller virkade eller nåt) bokmärke jag fick då.. med stammarnas färger..
Själv fick jag veta att jag tillhörde Ruben.. silver alltså..
