If anyone has the December 15,1947 Watchtower, please post the statement about Beth Sarim.
This 1947 Beth-Sarim reference has not been published since then as far as I know (other than the small segment in the Proclaimers book)
It will be interesting to read exactly what they wrote in 1947, and compare it with what they wrote in 1929, when they published the deed assigning the house to Rutherford for his exclusive use, until the ancient worthies showed up to claim it! (People actually believed this???!!!) I still say that this was a scam, using the assets of a religious organization to benefit a single individual, Rutherford! I do not believe someone could get away with such a deal today. --VM44
