1. "For it is evident that our Lord (Jesus) sprang out of Juda (was Jewish); of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood."-Heb 7:14
"For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph's"-1 Chron 5:2
2. If the BIRTHRIGHT was not very important, we would not have the story of Esau selling it to Jacob(Israel) in Gen 25:29-34 and of Jacob tricking his father Isaac to get the blessing in Genesis 27:1-29- "God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth"(v 28)
3. So Jacob's son Judah would have the sceptre promise (kingly line culminating in the Messiah), while Jacob's son Joseph would be blessed with fabulous material prosperity and power - Genesis 48:15-22.
4. Looking at Genesis 49, what people fits this description of power and prosperity "in the last days"(verse 1)? "Joseph🇬🇧🇺🇸 is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose BRANCHES (Heb-daughters) run over the wall(a colonizing people)"-verse 22 .....
5. "his bow abode in strength(a military power), and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob...who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under.."-v 24-25
6. "The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren."-verse 26.
7. Joseph was a blessing to the world in his time, and fed the world through convincing Pharaoh to store up grain during the 7 years of plenty right before the 7 years of famine (Genesis 41). What people has been a similar blessing to the world in the latter days?
8. Read 1 Kings 12. When Solomon's son Rehoboam refused to lower taxes, the "Northern Ten Tribes" (including Joseph-the birthright) seceded and formed the House of Israel. The southern Kingdom (Judah, Benjamin, and Levi) formed the House of Judah. Two separate nations.
9. "So Israel rebelled (or 'fell away'-KJV margin note) against the house of David unto this day...there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only"-1 Kings 12:19-20. Verse 23 shows Benjamin went with Judah, as did eventually Levi (2 Chron 11:13-14).
10. The House of Israel (northern 10 tribes) was taken captive by Assyria around 720 BC and became "lost". The House of Judah was finally taken captive by the Babylonians around 585BC but the Jews did NOT lose their identity en masse.
11. The lost 10 tribes eventually migrated to NW of Jerusalem (Is 49:12, Jer 31:8, Hosea 11:8,10) to the "isles afar off" (Jer 31:10). They would be "the chief of the nations" (Jer 31:7). They 'lost' their identity but left traces. Dan was one of the tribes of Kingdom of Israel.
12. Denmark means "mark of Dan". Danites settled there & in Ireland where early settlers were known as "Tuatha de Danaan" ("tribe of Dan").
Also, Isaiah 49:12-"these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim"-Vulgate translates 'Sinim' as "australi"🇦🇺
13. Hebrew word for covenant is "berith" (i.e. Baal-berith). Hebrew word for man is "ish". So is it a coincidence that berith-ish (Hebrew has no vowels so "berith" could be "brith") is so similar to "british"? And that "saxons" probably comes from "Isaac's sons" or "Saac's sons"?
14. David was promised (Psalm 89:20-37) that he would always have a descendant ruling on a throne over Israelites (throne would be "in the sea"-v 25).
See also 2 Samuel 7:12-16 for same promise to David. Queen Elizabeth II rules in the British ISLES on that throne today.
15. Isaac's descendants would be "thousands of millions" and possess the gates of their enemies (Gen24:60) such as Suez and Panama Canals and Strait of Gibralter.
"A nation🇺🇸and a company (or commonwealth) of nations🇬🇧shall be of thee"-Gen 35:11.
16. The people of Joseph eventually migrated to the British Isles & from there to the USA and other colonies. Why would people from a small island nation (England) become by far the most prosperous, powerful, & benevolent people the world has ever seen? Because of God's promises!
17. Reading the Old Testament we see the people of Israel were FAR from perfect. They constantly complained and disobeyed, even after seeing miracle upon miracle. But they were still God's chosen people (chosen for a purpose they, through sinning, failed to perform).
18. In like manner, we've had moral stains on our nation's history (slavery, abortion) and we are in no way racially superior to other people. But we (US/UK) are clearly God's people, and the most prosperous and benevolent people the world has ever seen-a blessing to the world.
19. Look at reverse of a dollar bill. Is the Star of David above the eagle a coincidence? Could the broken pyramid be related to Israel's God destroying the Egyptians? Why the unique relationship between the state of Israel (from Jacob's son Judah) and the USA (people of Joseph)?
20. Joseph's sons Ephraim🇬🇧and Manasseh🇺🇸became two independent tribes, and since Ephraim was set before Manasseh (Genesis 48:20) that makes Manasseh the 13th tribe. Is it a coincidence that the United States began with 13 colonies?
21. Summing up, no other people has fit the description of a greatly blessed, wealthy, and powerful people as the Americans and British have. We fit the description to a "T". This is the GREATEST PROOF of the inspiration of Scripture and therefore of the existence of God!
22. "With the great harbour of Scapa Flow in the north and the narrow straits of Dover in the south, there is no doubt, sir, that we are God's chosen people"-Britain's Admiral Fisher speaking to King George V.
23. Migrations of House of Israel from the Middle East to Europe, Britain and America (From "America and Britain in Prophecy" by Raymond F McNair). The people of Joseph 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 inherited the birthright (1 Chr 5:2) and its blessings (Gen 49:22-26).
#UnitedStatesInProphecy
24. "the ten tribes are beyond Euphrates till now, and are an immense multitude, and not to be estimated by numbers"
-Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, Book XI, Chapter V, sec 2.
In other words, they were in Parthia.
25. Remember-the Jews are indeed Israelites but not all Israelites were Jewish (just like not all Americans are Californians).
After Solomon, the Northern Ten Tribes SPLIT from Judah (only Levi and Benjamin stayed with Judah). Northern tribes were not Jewish. But Jesus WAS Jewish
26. "That educated Parthians were ready to visit and worship the Messiah at the time of Christ's birth indicates they were also familiar with the prophecies of the Old Testament. Who but transplanted Israelites would have been looking for the Messiah at that time?...
27. ...The fact that God was working intimately with the Parthian nobility confirms that the Parthians were the House of Israel in Asia, and supports the conclusion that the Parthian Magi (their priests) were Levites."
-"The 'Lost' Ten Tribes of Israel...Found!"-Steven M Collins
28. Pillar of fire (which led Israel by night) devastating Egypt on the left, and a Star of David inside the Pillar of a cloud (which led Israel by day) on the right (Ex 13:21).
“There is no such thing as a coincidence.”-Gibbs Rule #39
29. The Americans and British were blessed only because they received the birthright of Joseph. Why does this matter? The Bible shows the descendants of Israel in dire straits and in captivity when Jesus returns (Jeremiah 30 - especially verse 7 - “Time of Jacob’s Trouble”).
🇺🇸🇬🇧
30. "'The Tribes' produces evidence that most of the ancient Israelites assimilated to foreign cultures and forgot their origins. In the course of time they reached the British Isles and NW Europe whence related nations (such as the U.S.A.) were founded."-Yair Davidy "The Tribes"
