"Time to Tell the World," by Alexander Zephyr
To much of the Jewish Public including many rabbis and scholars all Tribes of Jacob are Jews!
Really?
Jews are a distinct nation. They originated from one of the Jacob sons named Judah. The citizens of the Kingdom of Judah are called Jews. The other sons of Jacob in exile were called the “Ten Tribes of Israel”. Nothing is extraordinary here. The Bible gives us few examples of how of the same brothers come totally different nations: Ishmael and Isaac; Esau and Jacob. Judah and Israel are of the same category. This is a very simple and clear Biblical definition. The religion of the Jews is Judaism, but it does not conclusively consist of a Jewish race, as any people of the world may convert to Judaism and legally be called “Jew” and be treated as natural born Jew.
Originally, the term "Yehudi" (Jew) referred specifically to members of the Tribe of Judah, as distinguished from the other Tribes of Israel. To call Israelites of the Ten Tribes “Jews” would be appropriate if there would have been reliable profs of (a) their direct physical descent from Judah, Benjamin and Levy, collectively known to the World as a modern-day Jews; or (b) if the ‘Lost’ Tribes of Israel would have practiced Judaism as their way of life and faith. Since it is obvious that these two criteria have nothing to do with and are not applicable to the House of Joseph, to call them “Jews” is both incorrect and unscriptural. And it is also offensive to the ‘real’ Jews who keep the Laws and practice Judaism as a way of everyday life according to the Heavenly Torah and sometimes even sacrifice their life in order to maintain the faith and believe in the God of Israel.
In the words of the remarkable researcher of the Ten Tribes, Yair Davidiy, who devoted his life to find and identify them and whose ideas are well known to the world, “Knowing who you are and that you had Hebrew Ancestors to whom the Bible addresses its message is important. The Israelites consist of both the Jews of Judah and the Ten Tribes of Israel. They are the Chosen people of the Almighty. If you are not Jewish, you may still be an Israelite from the Ten Tribes. Even though in the End Times the Tribes will return to the worship of One God, they do not necessarily have to convert. They are in a category of their own.”

Why is this issue so important that I have devoted so much time and energy to promote it? Because acquiring this knowledge helps to understand the Biblical truth and serves as a crucial key to unlock prophecy of the “End Times”.
Modern Israelis, citizens of the State of Israel, and the majority of the Jews in the Diaspora, have no Biblical knowledge of the Ten Tribes and are indifferent on this matter. Rabbis and scholars are especially to be found in the mainstream of this trend. Replacing or renaming the Ten Tribes by the Jews sounds like Supersessionism or “Replacement theory” of Christians, who claim (albeit wrongly!) that God rejected Israel and Christians instead became “Spiritual Israel”.
In the Hebrew Bible there are so many prophecies for the latter years, pertaining to Judah and Israel separately, that our conclusion cannot be wrong – Judah and Israel are not synonymous! The Ten Tribes of Israel are not Jews!
Good to know that there are many people, Jews and Gentiles alike, who have understood prophecies of the End of Days; who find the Ten Tribes and rightfully identify the countries of Israelite origin. They are feverishly working towards the awakening and reunification of all the families of Israel in order to fulfill the prophecies of final Redemption and the Messianic Age.
The Jewish people depend on their Israelite brothers and sisters. Judah cannot fight God's wars alone. Judah and Joseph must reunite in order to face enormous challenges in these troublesome times of the end of our age (Isaiah 11:12-14).
“For a long time Israel had been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without Torah” (II Chronicles 15:3).
The Jewish people have a special mission to perform.
Judah should be that ‘Teaching Priest’, a watchman for the house of Israel (Ezekiel 3:17), who is destined, called by God to fulfill the Divine Mission – to bring his brothers and sisters of the Ten Tribes to the ‘true God’ of Israel; to His Torah and to the Holy Land. “For Torah will go forth from Zion” (Isaiah 2:3). The sooner they repent, the sooner they will be reunited and redeemed by the Almighty.
The Jewish people have to take the initiative, to awaken this giant Joseph. They must go to the Ten Tribes wherever they live and bring to them the light of Torah and knowledge of the ‘true God’ of Israel. That is exactly what HaShem wishes them to do: “In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers (Jeremiah 3:18). ‘Walk with the house of Israel’ some translators understood as saying ‘go unto’. “Judah and Benyamin (i.e. the present-day Jews) are destined to go unto the Ten Tribes in exile and bring them back in order to merit with them the Messianic Era and life in the World-To-Come” (Midrash Yalkut Shimeoni, Song of Solomon 905). “For on My holy mountain, on the high mountain of Israel,” declares the Lord GOD, “there the whole House of Israel, all of them, will serve Me in the Land; I will accept you as fragrant incense when I bring you out from the nations and gather you from the countries where you have been scattered, and I will show Myself holy among you in the sight of the nations; and then you will know that I am the Lord'' (Ezekiel 20:40-42). Unless and until all Israel repents, turns back to the God of their fathers, accepts His Divine Torah and is restored to the Land, with Judah and Joseph joined as one, there will be no Messianic fulfillment, no Redemption and there will be no realization of the Kingdom of God.
Then, united together and redeemed by God, they will become again one Holy nation of God and one Kingdom of Priests, a light to the World. Together they will merit the Messianic Era and life in the World-To-Come as it says, “Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered” (Joel 2:32).
