[link to en.wikipedia.org] And it says: 3And ceased hath the fortress from Ephraim, And the kingdom from Damascus, And the remnant of Aram are as the honour of the sons of Israel, The affirmation of YHWH of Hosts! But "remnant" is only referring to Aram. There are about 700,000 Syrian Orthodox Christians in Syria. One of the oldest churches in Christianity, the Syrian Orthodox Church claims descent from Aram [Arameans.] Jesus spoke the Arameans' language, Aramaic. [link to en.wikipedia.org] [link to en.wikipedia.org] [link to en.wikipedia.org] . Hmmm... Then I wonder who Ephraim and Judah refer to? 15And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 16`And thou, son of man, take to thee one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the sons of Israel, his companions; and take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and all the house of Israel, his companions, 17and bring them near one unto another, to thee, for one stick, and they have become one in thy hand. 18`And when sons of thy people speak unto thee, saying, Dost thou not declare to us what these [are] to thee? 19Speak unto them, Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the stick of Joseph, that [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions, and have given them unto him, with the stick of Judah, and have made them become one stick, and they have been one in My hand. 20And the sticks on which thou writest have been in thy hand before thine eyes, 21and speak thou unto them: Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am taking the sons of Israel, From among the nations whither they have gone, And have gathered them from round about, And I have brought them in unto their land. 22And I have made them become one nation in the land, on mountains of Israel, And one king is to them all for king, And they are no more as two nations, Nor are they divided any more into two kingdoms again. 23Nor are they defiled any more with their idols, And with their abominations, And with any of their transgressions, And I have saved them out of all their dwellings, In which they have sinned, And I have cleansed them, And they have been to Me for a people, And I -- I am to them for God. 24And My servant David [is] king over them, And one shepherd have they all, And in My judgments they go, And My statutes they keep, and have done them. 25And they have dwelt on the land that I gave to My servant, to Jacob, In which your fathers have dwelt, And they have dwelt on it, they and their sons, And their son's sons -- unto the age, And David My servant [is] their prince -- to the age. Ezekiel 37 In the Old Testament the tribes of Israel had a civil war and Israel divided into two kingdoms. The Kingdom Of Israel was destroyed by the Assyrians, the Israelites were removed from Palestine and resettled in the "cities of the Medes." The Kingdom of Judah was destroyed by the Babylonians, most of the Israelites removed from Palestine - many taken to Babylon. 70 years later God's Anointed King of the Medes/Persians conquered Babylon. Cyrus decreed the return of some Israelites to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem. However, the vast majority of Israelites never returned to Palestine... and they became as the "gentiles." Jesus Christ said He came only to the lost sheep of Israel. He said His sheep know Him and follow Him. He said He had another flock [other than the Israelites in Palestine.] Jesus sent out His disciples to seek that which was lost. The Israelites both in Palestine and in the diaspora became Christian, just as Jesus said they would. " James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations: Greetings. " [link to bible.cc] . . Last Edited by AlasBabylon on 08/09/2011 12:10 PM |
