Judah and the English-Speaking Peoples. 20 June 2025, 24 Sivan, 5785.
Adapted from, "Hebrew Bride," by Yair Davidiy, 2018.
In the world today two of the major players are the English-speaking peoples and the Jews. The so-called Anglo-Saxon nations possess a good portion of the available wealth and power available. Not only that but related nations such as France, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, etc., all contribute to the sum-total of civilized endeavour to a degree well beyond their relative numbers.
And then we have the Jews. The Jews excel in intellectual activities marked by a greatly disproportional number of awards, inventions recorded, and palpable results of cerebral activity. They also have the State of Israel which with its small population punches much above its level in nearly every field. The interests of the Jews and of the English-speaking peoples frequently overlap. We believe that the two groups are related to each other. DNA at a simple popular-newspaper grade level will not show this relationship. That could be because DNA is not as well understood or reliable as we like to imagine. Changes in our appreciation of DNA may yet come to show us that the Jews and "Joes" are closer to each other than was once felt possible.
How do we know that the Jews really are the offspring of the ancient Jews of Judah?
The Bible says they are!
Scripture tells us that in the End Times Judah will be identifiable by the following points:
1. Judah will always have been recognized as Judah (Genesis 49:10).
Genesis (TCT) 49:
10 THE SCEPTER SHALL NOT DEPART FROM JUDAH, NOR THE STUDENT OF THE LAW FROM BETWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL SHILOH COMES, AND TO HIM WILL BE A GATHERING OF PEOPLES.
The word translated above as "sceptre" in Hebrew is "shevet". Rabbi Manasseh ben Israel (1604-1657) in his book "Conciliator," pointed out that this Hebrew word "shevet" also means 'Tribe' and that, unlike the Lost Ten Tribes, the Jews (i.e. Judah) will always be recognizable for who they are.
So too, "THE STUDENT OF THE LAW" still exists among the Jews. I see them every day and every night. They never stop, still studying.
The Ten Tribes would get Lost, not Judah (Genesis 34:10 cf. Isaiah 24:3, 49:13-14, 21 Hosea 1:8, Jeremiah 3:6-7).
2. The Jews of Judah will be incorrectly known as Israel (Isaiah 48:1).
3. The Jews will have kept the Law (Psalms 60:9, 108:90; Genesis 49:10; Zechariah 8:23).
4. The Jews will have kept the Four Fasts (Zechariah 8:19) as they still do today as they mourn the destruction of the Temple on four days of the year, every year!
5. The Jews will have been persecuted (Zechariah 1:15, Zechariah 8:13, Isaiah ch.53, Isaiah 42:10, Psalm 44:22).
6. In their Places of Exile Judah will have been defenceless (Hosea 1:7, Psalm 44:22).
7. An old lion and a new one.
In the End Times Judah will assert himself (Isaiah 63).
When the Jews return (as they have begun to do) they will be like lions, cf.
Genesis (CTC) 49:
9 THE CUB (of a lion) [and] A GROWN LION (Aryeh) IS JUDAH. FROM THE PREY, MY SON, YOU WITHDREW. HE CROUCHED, RESTED LIKE A LION ("Aryeh"), AND LIKE A MATURE LION ("Lavi"), WHO WILL ROUSE HIM?
Judah will be an Old-New Nation as the State of Israel now is ("Atlneuland," cf. Genesis 49: 8-12).
8. Judah will possess the coast lands of Palestine (Zephaniah ch.2).
9. Judah will dwell in Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:14).
10. The Jews of Judah will Return before the Ten Tribes (Micah 4:8 cf. Hosea 6:10).
The other side of the coin involves the Lost Ten Tribes (among Western Peoples) for which we have numerous other identifying sources and proofs.
