This tells me a lot, that you know very little about the Nation of Israel in the bible, or
you are just hostile towards that little [current man made nation] of Judahs decendents.
So you never heard of [the house of Judah] and [the house of Israel] ?
Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come
concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
Isaiah 17:7,Psalms 135:4,1 Chronicles 14:2,Isaiah 54:5,
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt
very treacherously against me, saith the Lord.
For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced
cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will sow [the house of Israel]
and [the house of Judah] with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.

The sceptre shall not depart from Judah …” (Genesis 49:10).
But the birthright was Joseph’s” (1 Chronicles 5:2).
For truly, the name “Israel” was named on the sons of Joseph! (Genesis 48:16)

Moses wrote all the terms of this covenant—this agreement making these ex-slaves
God’s nation—this agreement which also was a marriage covenant,
with the Eternal as Husband, binding the wife (Israel) to obey her Husband.
Then they Rejected God as King as their civil Ruler.(1 Samuel 8) there greatest sin. They
suffered under Saul. They began prospering under King David, and in Solomon’s reign they
reached a considerable state of prosperity. And Solomon’s prosperity turned him to idolatry.
When Solomon’s son Rehoboam became king, he threatened to put still heavier tax burdens
on the people. Thereupon the nation rejected Rehoboam and set up Jeroboam, of the tribe
of Ephraim, as king. This caused division and Judah thereupon seceded. They formed a new
nation—the kingdom of Judah. No longer did they have the national name “Israel.”
Here's a short Bible history on the matter:
1. After Solomon, God split Israel into two kingdoms, one in the south with its capital
at Jerusalem (known as "kingdom of Judah" and "house of Judah"), and the other
in the northern holy lands with its capital at Samaria (known as "kingdom of Israel"
and "house of Israel").
God gave Jeroboam of the tribe of Ephraim to be king over the ten tribe house of
Israel at Samaria. Solomon's son Rehoboam became king over the two tribe house
of Judah at Jerusalem. See 1 Kings 11 forward.
2. Jeroboam, king of ten tribe house of Israel setup golden calf worship in two cities in the north, to keep peoples in the north from going down to Jerusalem to worship. He made common priests of the people instead allowing the Levite priests to do their duties as God had setup. Because of this, small portions of the northern ten tribes went south and joined with Judah and Benjamin. The Levites in the north also went down to Jerusalem and joined with Judah and Benjamin.
3. The two kingdoms had war against each other.
And there was war between Rehoboam (king of Judah)
and Jeroboam (king of Israel) all their days. 1 Kings 14:30
4. Because of what Jeroboam had done with setting up idol worship over the ten tribes,
God rent the "kingdom of Israel" from him, bringing the kings of Assyria upon the ten tribes,
and removed them all out of the northern lands to Assyria in the north.
The Behistun Rock in modern day Iraq still stands as a record of the ten tribes
in captivity there, it's a huge carving of several plates upon a mountain side.

called Israel!
