Newsletter 0401: ISRAEL, THE HEAD OF THE NATIONS
The ancient people of Israel has a call to become the head of the nations. Although it was long time cast out of his land and went through massive judgments because of his disobedience, the promises and callings persisted and never changed. Meanwhile YAHWEH has already repatriated a bigger part of the Jews to Israel, but the ten tribes still remain mainly in Asia, the region to whereto they was displaced two millenniums ago. The scripture calls them Ephraim, according to the name of their leading tribe. However Ephraim is the hereditary firstborn of God. Without his return Israel will not receive his heritage completely and neither the Christians will, since they are their join heirs. Therefore the scripture calls us on to
publish ye,
praise ye, and say,
O YAHWEH, save thy people,
the remnant of Israel!
