Who is Israel? Are the Jews Israel? Jacob was Israel, so lets see what Jacob has to say. We pick up with Israel about to die. Genesis 48:1 And it came to pass after these things, that [one] told Joseph, Behold, thy father [is] sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. Joseph's father was Jacob, our Father named him israel, he was old and about to past. Genesis 48:2 And [one] told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed. Israel knew it was about to be his time to be with the Lord. He is going to bless his twelve sons before he dies, but first he will bless Joseph's two sons. Genesis 48:3 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, Our Father blessed Jacob with being the one in which the nations of Israel would come from, thru his twelve sons. Genesis 48:4 And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee [for] an everlasting possession. The nations of Israel own the land from the Nile river in Egypt to the Euphrates river in Iraq forever. Genesis 48:5 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.
Genesis 48:6 And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, [and] shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance. Genesis 48:7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet [there was] but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same [is] Bethlehem. Genesis 48:8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who [are] these? Israel will give Joseph's two sons the birthright blessing, which is national power. Genesis 48:9 And Joseph said unto his father, They [are] my sons, whom God hath given me in this [place]. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them. Israel has not yet blessed his other 11 sons, he blesses joseph's two sons first. Genesis 48:10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, [so that] he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them. Israel is about to make Joseph's sons the most powerful nations on earth, the birthright nations of Israel. Can you think of a more powerful birthright, then these two nations will lead the world. Genesis 48:11 And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed. Genesis 48:12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth. Genesis 48:13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought [them] near unto him. Israel's left hand is next to Ephraim and his right hand is next to Manasseh, that is the way it should be because of the order by birth. Genesis 48:14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid [it] upon Ephraim's head, who [was] the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh [was] the firstborn. I hope you see that israel crossed his arms and put his hands on the boys heads. Genesis 48:15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day, Genesis 48:16 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. Israel says let my name be on them, Ephraim and Manasseh. This means that Joseph's two sons are now two tribes, Joseph was the 11th of 12 sons, Ephraim will be the 11th tribe for Joseph, Manasseh becomes the 13th tribe of Israel. Lets not forget that Ephraim and Manasseh were named ISRAEL. As you can see Ephraim and Manasseh are true Israel. Wonder why more people don't know this? Genesis 48:17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head. Joseph has a problem with this crossed arm blessing, he knows that Israel's right hand should be on Manasseh's head, the first born son. Genesis 48:18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this [is] the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head. Joseph wants this by order of birth but our Father has other plans. This crossed arm blessing makes me think of the flag of the United Kingdom with its big X on it. Genesis 48:19 And his father refused, and said, I know [it], my son, I know [it]: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations. Israel was doing our Father's will and making Manasseh a great nation, the 13th tribe of Israel. The United States is marked with the number 13, 13 colonies, 13 stripes on the flag, 13 arrows on the seal, 13 olive leaves on the seal, the pyramid on the seal has 13 steps. Ephraim will become a multitude of nations or a commonwealth of nations. The British colonized most of the world and became the multitude of nations, The British Commonwealth of Nations. Friend you can only colonize the world once, the British did this, no other nation can claim this. Genesis 48:20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh. Ephraim was before Manasseh, The United Kingdom was the greatest nation on earth before the United States was. Genesis 48:21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers. This is by birthright and it is unconditional. The multitude of nations is the British Commonwealth of nations and the United States is the great nation. Genesis 48:22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow. Ephraim and Manasseh will be blessed double portion above the other 11 tribes or nations of Israel. It is amazing that the world is still trying to put all 13 tribes as the Jews. Lets go to 1Chronicles. 1Chronicles 5:1 Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he [was] the firstborn; but, forasmuch as he defiled his father's bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright. 1Chronicles 5:2 For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him [came] the chief ruler; but the birthright [was] Joseph's: I guess the world thinks the Bible is just covering pages, but if you can see look around at the nations of the world. There is a reason the United States is the super power of the world. Manasseh means forgetful and they have forgot who they are. Deuteronomy 33:17 His glory [is like] the firstling of his bullock, and his horns [are like] the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they [are] the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they [are] the thousands of Manasseh. The seal of the United Kingdom has a unicorn on the front and a lion for the king line of Judah. At the apex of the covenant blessings the US and the UK controlled about 75% of the world's surface, it is history. Today we are going into captivity to Babylon, The New World Order.
