TEN LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL
"In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria captured Samaria. He
carried the Israelites to Assyria and settled them in Halah, at the
River Habor, at the River Gozan, and in the towns of Media." [2 Kings
(Melakhim Bet) 17. 6 Tanakh, Nevi'im; also see 18. 9-12]

Ever since the ten tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel were taken
to Assyria in captivity by the Assyrian king, there has been wide-spread
speculations and various clans of people claiming to be the lost tribes
of Israel. However, if one would diligently read the WRITTEN WORD OF
GOD, they would see clearly the coming together of all Twelve Israelite
Tribes forming one Jewish Nation.

The other two tribes, Judah and Benjamin, were later taken captive to
Babylon, but eventually they returned to rebuild Jerusalem and establish
their nation in the Land of Promised once again. "Then he (Asa)
assembled all the people of Judah and Benjamin and those of Ephraim,
Manasseh, and Simeon who sojourned among them, for many in Israel came
over to him when they saw that the LORD GOD was with him. They assembled
together in Jerusalem...and brought sacrifices to the LORD that day.
They entered into a covenant to worship the LORD GOD of their fathers
with all their heart and with all their soul." [2 Chronicles (Dibre
Hayamin Bet) 15. 9 - 12 Tanakh, Kethuvim]

{An interesting thought regarding Judah and Benjamin: Ever since Judah
stood as surety for Benjamin - Genesis/Bereshith 43. 9, they have been
together. . . their boarders in the Land of Israel, even in captivity.
Ezra 4.1;10. 9; Nehemiah/Nechemah 11. 4}

There were many GOD-fearing Israelites within the ten tribes who
decidedly chose to stay with Jerusalem, after Jeroboam led the ten
tribes away from Rehoboam to establish his Northern Kingdom. "The
priests and the Levites, from all their territories throughout Israel,
took their stand with him (Rehoboam)...for Jeroboam and his sons had
prevented them from serving the LORD... From all the tribes of Israel,
those who set their heart to seek the LORD GOD OF ISRAEL followed the
Levites to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD GOD of their fathers." [2
Chronicles (Dibre Hayamin Bet) 11. 13, 15 - 16 Tanakh, Kethuvim]

GOD'S RECORD OF EVIDENCE gives numerous accounts that most of the
deported ten tribes, or their descendants, eventually came back to the
Land of Promise and were all called Jews (from the name Judah) in the
time of MESSIAH YESHUA. Such as, the prophetess Anna (Hannah),
Phanuel's daughter, of the tribe of Asher. [Luke 2. 36]

Though most Jews cannot trace their lineage since the time the Temple
was destroyed and all records burned. However, the ALL-WISE, OMNISCIENT
MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, still has a people who are called according to
HIS will. HE knows those who are HIS and of what tribe they are from.
As recorded in the last book of HOLY SCRIPTURE: "And I heard the number
of those who were sealed; and there were sealed one hundred and
forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel."
[Revelation 7. 4] Although Dan and Ephraim are not shown in this
numbering (deliberately for a specific reason), the tribes are accounted
for, the ten tribes were never lost at all. Our GREAT & MIGHTY GOD is
still in control, and HIS WORD is accurate, faithful, perfect, exact and
completely reliable. . . Believe It!


Sha'alu (Pray) for the shalom (Peace) of Jerusalem and all of
Israel!
"Return, O LORD, to the ten thousands of the families of Israel."
[Numbers/B'Midvar 10. 36]
O LORD GOD, keep my tongue from evil and my lips from speaking guile. Be
my SUPPORT when grief silences my voice, and my COMFORT when anguish
bends my spirit. Plant humility in my soul, and strengthen my heart with
perfect faith in YOU. Guide me by the light of YOUR counsel, and let me
ever find rest in YOU, my ROCK, my REDEEMER and my PORTION.

Praying for the peace of Jerusalem is praying for the return of Messiah
Jesus and His Kingdom.
