  1. Assumption

  2. Illogical ramblings

  3. Total disregard of the 12 tribes

 

Not so good anon

 

Abraham begot Isaac. Isaac begot Jacob.

 

To be an Israelite by blood, a person must be a descendent of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Jacob begot 12 sons who are listed herein in subsequent sections.

 

The 12 sons of Jacob are the patriarchs of the 12 Tribes of Israel.

For example, Jacob's son Benjamin is the patriarch of the Tribe of Benjamin. Jacob's son Reuben is the patriarch of the Tribe of Reuben. And so forth.

Well-known descendants of certain Tribes

 

Tribe of Benjamin - King Saul, Paul the apostle [a.k.a. Saul of Tarsus]

Tribe of Levi - Moses, Aaron

Tribe of Judah - King David, King Solomon, many other kings; Lord Jesus, the Messiah

 

The Promised Land [Canaan], plus an area on the east side of the Jordan River, was allocated among the 12 Tribes. [Num 33.54; Num 36.3-9]

 

As the priestly Tribe, Levi was given no land. [Num 18.20, 18.24] Instead of land, God gave Levi the tithes of the people of Israel.

Jacob's son Joseph had two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.

By Jacob's command [Gen 48.5], Joseph's sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, were regarded as de facto "Tribes" of Israel.

Thus, the land allocations of Joseph and Levi were given instead to Ephraim and Manasseh, preserving twelve as the number of tribes. [Josh 14.3-4]

There is no such thing as "10 lost tribes of Israel." [Mt 10.6, Acts 26.7, Jam 1.1, Rev 7.1-8; Ezek 37]
