Where is this Levite I am not to forsake?
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
do you know who the physical tribes, decendents of Isreal the person is.
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah …” (Genesis 49:10).
But the birthright was Joseph’s” (1 Chronicles 5:2).
josephs name changed to Isreal,he passed name on to grandsons Manasseh and Ephraim
all the promises and the covenants of God, all the sonship and the glory, belong sole to Israel.
“And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were
born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into
Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine”
The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads;
and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers
Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the
midst of the earth” (verses 14-16).
“Joseph is a fruitful bough,even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches [margin,
daughters] run over the wall” (verse 22).
“[T]he Almighty … shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that
lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb: 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”
The promise of a future great nation and a company of
nations, together great for multitude, rich in national material
prosperity,fruits of the ground, possessing the “gates” of the Earth’s other nations,

nothing about septer promise of one seed or grace-only physical nations,multitudes in midst of earth
Jews are from Israel(only one tribe)and not called Isreal in the bible
first time jews are metioned in the bible they are going to war with Isreal
Wherever you see the name “Israel,” or “house of Israel,” or “Samaria,”
“Jacob,” or “Rachel,” or “Ephraim” and "Manasseh" used in prophecy, remember this:
It never refers to the Jews, but to Israel
For truly, the name “Israel” was named on the sons of Joseph! (Genesis 48:16)
the "house of Israel or nation - Jacob, Isreal, samaria, Ephraim and Manasseh
Wherever they are, the Bible calls them by the national name Israel.
To the world, their identity today is lost.
But, in biblical prophecy, it is they—not the Jews—who are called Israel!
the house or tribe of Judah” Jacob - Judah, or the Jews,Jerusalem
Each tribe occupied its own land, or district.
The Levites became the priestly tribe, mingling throughout the other tribes
having no inheritance in the land and no separate territory (except for cities) of their own.
To offset this, however, the children of Joseph were divided into two tribes
Ephraim and Manasseh, thus leaving 12 distinct and separate tribes, each occupying its own territory
or province, in addition to the Levites who were sprinkled among the tribes.
All these years the birthright and the scepter remained within the one nation—the birthright
of course, being handed down through the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, the scepter with Judah.
The Scriptures plainly tell us that Israel was to lose its identity,
its language, its religion, its land, and its name.
Isreal became slaves, then lost to the world, by deforce, becoming the lost 10 tribes,
notice Isaiah 8:17: “And I will wait upon the Lord,
that hideth his face from the house of Jacob?….”
