Matthew 15:24
But he answered and
said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
The house of Israel,
not just the house of Judah as many may think. After the death of Solomon the Kingdom of
Israel was split into the Northern House of Israel, (Samaria is based on the borders of this
Northern Kingdom) and the Southern House
of Judah, hence Judea. As a Canaanite
woman approach him for help, though Yeshua was sent to the lost sheep of the
house of Israel, in Isaiah 49:6, it appears the Father says to the Son:
"It is too
small a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob,
and to restore the preserved ones of Israel: I will also give you for a light
to the Gentiles, that you may be my salvation unto the ends of the earth."
But it was the
mission of the 12 to preach this Gospel to the House of Israel and that would
include the lost tribes of Israel who were exiles 130 years before Judah (the
Jews). Taken to Assyria in mass, there
is no record I am aware of they had returned.
But Assyria sent it's own to take over the Samarian cities and culture,
even sending back one Levi priest to teach those transplants the Eternal's
Word, which they would not keep or do.
Meanwhile the tribes in exile became know as the Scythians and they were
eventually driven out by another race from the east and they made their way
northwest, through the Caucuses further into Europe. One source says into the German area of
northwest Europe. Those that drove
out the genuine Scythians were then called Scythians also. So the House of Israel Scythians were named
by the Romans as 'Germans', that is, 'Genuine' Scythians to differentiate those people
from the Scythian invaders. From Germany
they migrated to the British Isles. British= Covenant People.
Another source says
when the house of Israel Scythians were driven out by the invaders, they went
directly to the British Isles. Its possible that it happened both ways. Some went to the British Isles and others
to Germany and then to the British Isles.
That former source also believes that some from the House of Israel
settled in the British Isles before the tribes were carried away out of Samaria
and that the Assyrians not of the House of Israel migrated to Germany giving Germany it's
Assyrian heritage. I don't doubt all are
right but not just one scenario is exclusive as the people of the House of Israel
were to be sifted among the nations, Amos 9:9 might apply here:
For, lo, I will
command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like grain is
sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
Note here Amos did not just say the house of Judah, but the house of Israel.
It was not (is not) known to them who they were (are), the house of Israel, yet some knew and remembered or came to know at some
period of time and so begins the story of
Britain, her Common Wealth Nations
and America:
And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of you, and kings shall spring forth from you; Genesis 35:11
There is only one
Jewish nation not many, but there are many nations from the House of Israel.
The question is now, will the House of Israel be
driven out of these nations and if so to where?
