1. How Many Israelites Will There Be?
Query:

I Hate the World2
If they said Rebekah would be the mother of thousands of millions then that would be at least two billion people. That's a quarter of the world's population.?
Maybe you'd have to reduce the number a bit, but that still makes her a busy girl on the more blessed side of things.?
===============================
Brit-Am Reply:
The numbers could include ALL the Israelites who have ever lived PLUS they who are destined to do so. The Blessings have been only PARTIALLY fulfilled. The Lost Ten Tribes and Judah still have a prophetic and Historical role to play.
Note:
Genesis 24:
60Â And they blessed Rebekah and said to her,
'Our sister, may you become
thousands of ten thousands,
and may your offspring possess
the gate of those who hate him!' (ESV)
The ESV above says "thousands of ten thousands."
The KJ versions says, "thousands of millions" but "thousands of ten thousands," seems to reflect the Hebrew original "alfei revava" better, i.e. tens of millions???
alfei means "thousands of".
revavah means "ten thousands" though it may sometimes connote a greater number.
Other blessings speak of the seed of Israel becoming as the sand of the sea and as the stars in heaven for multitude.

2. "They will fear the name of the LORD from the west"?
Isaiah 59:
19 So they will fear the name of the LORD from the west
And His glory [Hebrew: "cavod" i.e. "honor"]Â from the rising of the sun,
For He will come like a rushing stream
Which the wind of the Lord drives.
20 A Redeemer will come to Zion.
[The word translated above as "glory" in Hebrew is "cavod" meaning "honor"]
Query:
This verse speaks of the Revelation of the Almighty in the Last Days. It mentions both east and west.
Knowledge of God  is in the west. In the east it  speaks of HIS honor.
Do you  find this significant?

This is something to keep in mind when considering other Biblical sources concerning the Lost Ten Tribes being in the West in the End Times.

3. Eastern Religions are a Disgrace! Tibet
Isaiah 2:
5 Come, house of Jacob, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.
6 For You have abandoned Your people, the house of Jacob,
Because they are filled with influences from the east,
And they are soothsayers like the Philistines,
And they strike bargains with the children of foreigners.
Isaiah predicts that in the End Times the Israelite nations will turn to eastern religions. This is already happening with our young peoples. It has been going on for decades now and has become respectable.
In effect it is a sham.
Tibet is often depicted as a leading example of eastern mysticism. And what were the practical manifestations of it in the past?
Tibet Buddhism is actually a mixture of Buddhism and Demon worship. Esoteric freaks, such as Himler, among the Nazis felt an empathy with Tibetan religion.

Annual expeditions of Nazi researchers are said to have visited Tibet from 1926 to 1943.The ruling elite of Tibet was declared to be Aryan in 1937.
 It has been claimed that a group of Tibetan monks were brought to Berlin. Their bodies, dressed in German uniforms, were reportedly found by the Russians when Berlin fell to them in 1945.
Before the Chinese conquest of Tibet in 1950 more than 90% of the populations were serfs or virtual slaves under a ruling elite.
They practised human sacrifices. They also used human physical organs in medicines, charms, and in ritual meals. In many cases it was required that the parts in question be taken from living persons.
Serfs were to be found throughout the country lacking arms and other organs having been forced to donate them to help the upper class indulge their superstitions.
