Matthew 15:24
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
For thou art an holy people unto the Yahweh: Yahweh thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.”
Deu 7:6
Yahweh did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:”
Deu 7:7
The Jews were Yahwah’s chosen people, this is because Yahwah promised Abraham that through his seed all nations would be blessed throughout the whole earth.
He chose us because we were the only righteous people in the earth and he dealt only with us and because we fell as a nation.
1. Judah.
The tribe of kings, and the most preeminent of the 12 tribes in the biblical narrative. Judah “prevailed over his brothers,” (1 Chronicles 5:2), and the tribe’s territory included the city of Jerusalem and the holy temple. King David was part of this tribe, and his royal line ruled in Jerusalem from around 1,000 BC until the city fell to Babylonian forces in 586 BC. Jerusalem was the capital of Israel and the capital of the Southern Kingdom after the nation divided. Jesus is of the tribe of Judah (Matthew 1:1–2). Notable tribesmen: Jesus, David, Mary, Solomon, Caleb
2. Reuben.
Descended from Jacob’s firstborn, whom Jacob said was as “uncontrolled as water” (Genesis 49:4). The tribe chose not to settle in the Promised Land, and instead asked Moses for some of the territory that they conquered east of the Jordan River. Moses agreed to this, on the condition that they assist the western tribes in conquering Canaan (Numbers 32:28–32). They did so, but they did not assist the other tribes in battle during the period of judges (Judges 5:16), and the tribe falls into scriptural obscurity.
3.Simeon
The man Simeon (with his brother Levi) slaughtered the men of an entire city to avenge his sister (Genesis 34:25–31). The tribe’s portion of land was within the midst of Judah’s territory (Joshua 19:1); however, Simeon did not grow as rapidly as Judah and seems to have dispersed across multiple territories (1 Chronicles 4:38–43; 2 Chronicles 15:8–9). This is consistent with Jacob’s prophecy concerning Simeon and his brother Levi: “I will disperse them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.”
4. Levi.
The tribe of the priesthood. The tribe of Levi stood by Moses (a Levite) during the golden calf incident at Mount Sinai (Exodus 32:25–29), and later took their place as ministers to the tabernacle, and later the Temple. Levi had no tribal territory—the Lord was the tribe’s inheritance (Numbers 18:19–20)—though they did receive pasture lands for their cattle (Joshua 21). Levitical duties were extensive (read Leviticus!), but Moses gives a brief summary of their significance in his blessing for the tribe (Deuteronomy 33:8–11).
Notable tribesmen: Moses, Aaron, John the Baptist, Barnabas
5. Zebulun.
Zebulun doesn’t get very much attention in the Bible. The tribe does boast a strong, loyal fighting force during the days of the judges and King David. In fact, Zebulun had the largest presence in the army that made David king of Israel at Hebron, and they served him with “an undivided heart” (1 Chronicles 12:33).
6. Issachar.
Issachar has even less biblical presence than Zebulun, but the tribe was loyal to Deborah and Barak (Judges 5:15). They’re also remembered as “men who understood the times, with knowledge of what Israel should do” (1 Chronicles 12:32).
7. Dan.
We don’t read much about the man Dan, but we do see his tribe up to no good in the book of Judges. The tribe did not secure their original portion of land (Judges 1:34; 18:1), and instead migrated northward. In the process, they took for themselves other gods (Judges 18:14–17) and set up a new priesthood (Judges 18–20). The tribe later joins Jeroboam in idolatry when the kingdom of Israel divides (1 Kings 12:28–29). Notable tribesman: Samson
8. Gad.
Little is said of Gad, the man or the tribe. They, like Reuben, settled east of the Jordan.
9. Asher.
Jacob prophesied that Asher’s tribe would enjoy rich foods (Genesis 49:20), and the tribe went on to possess a region of eastern Galilee which is still known for its olive groves.
10. Naphtali.
Naphtali, with Zebulun, is mentioned by the prophet Isaiah in a passage we read often during Christmastime: “For a child will be born to us . . . .” This promise was given concerning the land of Galilee, specifically, the “land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali.” You can read the whole prophecy in Isaiah 9.
11. Ephraim.
This tribe is named after Joseph’s son. Joseph received the birthright from Jacob, and instead of just one tribe, he is the ancestor of two (Manasseh is the other). After the kingdom divides, the Northern Kingdom’s capital is in Ephraim’s territory, and the prophets sometimes refer to the entire nation as “Ephraim” (Jeremiah 31:9, Hosea 5:3). Notable tribesmen: Joshua, Samuel
12. Benjamin.
This small tribe has played several important roles in Israel’s history. Benjamin stood against the rest of Israel in a national civil war (Judges 20:14–21:24). Saul, the first anointed king of Israel, was from Benjamin. The tribe was also loyal to David’s descendants when the northern tribes seceded (1 Kings 12:16–24). Notable tribesmen: King Saul, Mordecai, Paul
13. Manasseh.
This tribe descended from Joseph’s firstborn son, and uniquely settled on both sides of the Jordan River (Joshua 17:5–6). The eastern settlement is often referred to as the “half-tribe of Manasseh.”
Wait—13 tribes of Israel?
Kind of. Remember, Levi didn’t receive tribal territory like the other tribes. Also, Joseph’s sons were considered heads of their own tribes—both of which received an inheritance of land. In some lists, Joseph is counted as one of the 12 (Genesis 49; Deuteronomy 33). In others, Levi isn’t counted, and Ephraim and Manasseh are considered distinct tribes.
Here’s the math:
12 tribes – 1 (Levi) – 1 (Joseph) + 1 (Ephraim) + 1 (Manasseh) = 12 tribes
Got Info From..
The 12 tribes of Israel often quarreled and fought with one another just like Brothers...
Genesis 17:4-5 4
4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
Yahewh renamed Jacob "Israel" and favored him with 12 sons: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph, and Benjamin.
Each son became the leader of a tribe that bore his name. When Yahweh had Moses to rescued the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, they camped together in the desert, each tribe gathered in its own smaller camp.
After they built the desert tabernacle under Yahweh's command, the tribes camped around it to remind them Yahweh was their God and protector.
Even though they were divided into 12 tribes, when the time came to assign sections of the land, it was done by tribes.the Israelites recognized they were one unified people unde the Mighty God.
The number 12 Show off perfection, as well as Yahweh's pleased.
It stands for a solid foundation of completeness. Symbolic references to the 12 tribes of Israel abound goes throughout the Bible.
The high priest was the man appointed by God to oversee the tabernacle in the wilderness, a position of sacred responsibility. God chose Aaron, brother of Moses, to be his first high priest, and Aaron's sons to be priests to assist him.
However,God had decreed that the tribe of Levi was to be priests...Call Haiti..Aaron was from the tribe of Levi, one of the 12 sons of Jacob.The Levites were put in charge of the tabernacle and later the temple in Jerusalem.
Moses built an altar with 12 pillars, representing the tribes... Bible References to the 12 Tribes of Israel In the prophetic book of Revelation, an angel shows John the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven: It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates
.
On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel.
Revelation 21:19-20
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
Yahweh Loved His People So Dearly He Just Ask Them Just Love Me And Trust Me And Obey.

The Israelites Cursed?
DEUTERONOMY 28:45-46 “moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed;BECAUSE THOU HEARKENEDST NOT UNTO THE VOICE OF THE LORD THY GOD to KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS and his STATUTES which he COMMANDED THEE: 46And they shall be upon thee for a SIGN and for a wonder, and upon thy SEED for ever.”
The Israelites would be cursed because they refuse to obey their God in keeping the commandments, laws and statues as written in Deuteronomy 28:45-46. Furthermore, SIGN of all these CURSES would identity the Israelites are today.
DEUTERONOMY 28:48 "Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the LORD shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in WANT of ALL THINGS: and he shall put a YOKE of IRON UPON THY NECK; until he have destroyed thee.
Over the centuries, the 12 tribes of Israel fell apart by marrying foreigners but mainly through the conquests of hostile invaders.
The Assyrians overran part of the kingdom, then in 586 B.C. the Babylonians attacked, carrying thousands of Israelites into captivity in Babylon. After that, the Greek empire of Alexander the Great took over,
Followed by the Roman empire, which destroyed the temple in 70 A.D., dispersing most of the Jewish population throughout the world.
DEUTERONOMY 28:37 “And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a BYWORD, among all nations whither the LORD shall lead thee”
Negroes, Nigger, Afro-Colombians, Haitians, Jamaicans, Colored, Coon, Sambo, Afro-Brazilians, Porch Monkey, Afro Cubans, African-Americans, Blacks, Africans, Caribbeans, etc.
The People The Israelites are being destroyed By Aids, prison population, Abortion rates, no justice, been shot down in cold blood by the police, single women at the head of the house, high school dropout rates, crime, self-hate, no unity, poverty, treated as third class citizens,
It seem Israelites always be at the bottom of the economic, social, and political level in society.
Hosea 4:6
“My people”are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children”
"Until Some Israelites Start Obeying Yhawah Rules And Laws And The Curse Will Be Broken".
America is the new Egypt according to the Bible.
DEUTERONOMY 28:68 –“Yahweh shall bring thee into EGYPT AGAIN WITH SHIPS, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be SOLD UNTO YOUR ENEMIES (NOT FRIENDS) for BONDMEN and BONDWOMEN, and no man shall buy you.”
Yahweh will send the Israelite into Egypt again...Yahweh is punishing the Israelites and he is using the nation Gentiles as the rod in his hand to do it. The Israelite has disobey the law and a problem is between them and the Yahweh.
The Israelites did not need ships to go to Egypt because they could walk to Egypt to Israel or from Israel to Egypt however, the Israelites would need ships to go to the Americas New Egypt.
WHY ARE THE SYMBOLS OF EGYPT ON THE BACK OF THE AMERICAN DOLLAR?

James 1:1 1
James, a servant of Yahweh and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
Revelation 21:12 12
And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: Old Covenant:
Between God and Israel The Old Covenant was established between God and the people of Israel, after God freed them from slavery in Egypt. Moses, who led the people out, served as mediator of this contract, which was made at Mount Sinai.
God promised that the people of Israel would be his chosen people, and he would be their God (Exodus 6:7).
God issued the Ten Commandments and the laws in Leviticus to be obeyed by the Hebrews. If they complied, he pledged prosperity and protection in the Promised Land. Altogether, there were 613 laws, covering every aspect of human behavior.
Males had to be circumcised, sabbaths had to be observed, and people had to obey hundreds of dietary, social, and hygiene rules. All these regulations were intended to protect the Israelites from their neighbors' pagan influences, but no one could keep so many laws.
To address the people's sins, God set up a system of animal sacrifices, in which the people provided cattle, sheep, and doves to be killed. Sin required blood sacrifices.
Under the Old Covenant, those sacrifices were carried out at the desert tabernacle. God installed Moses' brother Aaron and Aaron's sons as priests, who slaughtered the animals.
Only Aaron, the high priest, could enter the Holy of Holies once a year on the Day of Atonement, to intercede for the people directly with God.
After the Israelites conquered Canaan, King Solomon built the first permanent temple in Jerusalem, where the animal sacrifices continued. Invaders eventually destroyed the temples, but when they were rebuilt, the sacrifices resumed
Exodus 28:6-8 The Holy Vest 6 “Use gold and blue, purple and red thread, and fine linen to make the holy vest. The craftsmen are to make this holy vest.
7 At each top corner of this holy vest there will be a pair of shoulder straps.
These are to be tied together over each shoulder.
8 “The craftsmen will very carefully weave a belt on the holy vest. Make the belt with gold and blue, purple and red thread, and fine linen.
Yahahua promised his twelve disciples that they will rule Israel’s twelve tribes when he comes as King....
27 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?
28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
This makes a connection between the twelve tribes and the twelve apostles in the Messianic age.
This is important because Rev. 21:19-20 lists twelve jewels with the apostles’ names engraved
on them.
Revelation 21:19-20
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
Apostle John evidently viewed New Jerusalem from all the four sides because he described the gates on each side; Rev. 21: 12-14.
It has a great, high wall with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates are inscribed the names of the ; on the east three gates; on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
And the wall of the city has twelve foundations, and on them are the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Exodus 24:4 4
And Moses wrote all the words of the Lord, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel..
Biblical jewels are impossible to identify in their Hebrew names, for they have
been unused and forgotten since many centuries ago.
1.Every jewel stone should be soft enough to engrave by the usual engraving
techniques known in ancient times.
Exodus 28:9-11
9 And thou shalt take two onyx stones, and grave on them the names of the children of Israel:
10 Six of their names on one stone, and the other six names of the rest on the other stone, according to their birth.
11 With the work of an engraver in stone, like the engravings of a signet, shalt thou engrave the two stones with the names of the children of Israel: thou shalt make them to be set in ouches of gold.
2. These jewel stones should be large enough to engrave names upon, to be easily readable from an arm-length distance.
3. The jewels must have been available in Egypt at about 1500 BCE, wheneverMoses led his people out of Egypt. The jewels came from Egypt
Exodus 12:35-36
35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:
36 And the Lord gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they lent unto them such things as they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians.
These are the jewels, as indicated in Rev. 21:19-20
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
History Of The Jews In Brazil The Tribe Asher
Kahal Zur Israel Synagogue, (founded 1636) in Recife was the first Jewish congregation in the Americas.
A synagogue in São Paulo.
History of the Jews in Brazil
The first Jews arrived in Brazil as cristãos-novos (New Christians) or conversos, names applied to Jews or Muslims who converted to Catholicism, most of them forcibly. According to the Inquisition reports, many New Christians living in Brazil during colonial times were condemned for secretly observing Jewish customs.
In 1630, the Dutch conquered portions of northeast Brazil and permitted the open practice of any religion. Many Jews came from the Netherlands to live in Brazil in the area dominated by the Dutch.
Most of them were descendants of the Portuguese Jews who had been expelled from Portugal in 1497. In 1636, the Kahal Zur Israel Synagogue, the first synagogue in the Americas was built in Recife, the capital of Dutch Brazil.
The original building remains to this day, but the Jews were forced to leave Brazil when the Portuguese-Brazilians retook the land in 1654.
The first Jews that stayed in Brazil and openly practiced their religion came when the first Brazilian constitution granted freedom of religion in 1824, just after the independence.
They were mainly Moroccan Jews, descendants of the Spanish and Portuguese Jews who had been expelled from Spain in 1492 and Portugal in 1497.
The first wave of Sephardic Jews was exceeded by the larger wave of immigration by Ashkenazi Jews that came at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, mainly from Russia, Poland, Belarus and Ukraine. A final significant group came, fleeing Nazism or the destruction that followed World War II.
Brazil has the 9th largest Jewish community in the world, about 107,329 by 2010, according to the IBGE Census. The Jewish Confederation of Brazil (CONIB) estimates that there are more than 120,000 Jews in Brazil, with the lower figure representing active practitioners
