What do you all think of the idea that the nations of the West are mostly the descendants of the ten northern tribes of Israel that were exiled to Assyria?

Hi David,

I've never thought of that... what would it matter?

What do you think about it?

isukusa:
Bobby: The idea goes that following the Assyrian deportation of the northern 10 tribes in 722BC they eventually escaped, during the Babylonian invasion, to the black sea region and eventually migrated across Europe to eventually settle in Northwestern Europe. The ramifications are: that God kept his promises to Abraham (kings of many nations, many seed), Who is Israel...the western nations and/or the nation of Israel, If the western nations are Jacob this has great prophetical significance, the location of Joseph to eventually be reunited with Judah (Eze 37). I was just looking for the thoughts of others on this issue.

God Bless, David

I guess I have not looked at it physically before... but spiritually... that is being of Christ and of the circumcision we are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise.

Gal 3:29  And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Chris R:
For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:  But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God. Rom 2:28-29
