1. Division.
The Hebrew Peoples are divided into Two Sections:
1. The Jews, i.e. "Judah" in the Bible;
and
2. The Lost Ten Tribes, i.e. "Joseph," "Ephraim," or in some contexts simply "Israel" in the Bible

House of Israel. Terminology. When did this term apply ONLY to the Ten Tribes and When Not?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
2. The Task of Judah.
The task of Judah is to Learn Torah and Keep the Law, and also, in our time, to build up the Land of Israel.
The Jews kept the Law as it had been prophesied that Judah would:
Psalms 60:7, 108:90; Genesis 49:10; Zechariah 8:19, 23.
PSALMS (NKJV) 60:
7 GILEAD IS MINE, AND MANASSEH IS MINE; EPHRAIM ALSO IS THE HELMET FOR MY HEAD; JUDAH IS MY LAWGIVER.
HOSEA (NKJV) 6:
11 ALSO, O JUDAH, A HARVEST IS APPOINTED FOR YOU, WHEN I RETURN THE CAPTIVES OF MY PEOPLE.
CF.
HOSEA (ARPE) 6:
11 ALSO YEHUDA, MAKE FOR YOURSELF A HARVEST WHENEVER I TURN AROUND THE CAPTIVITY OF MY PEOPLE
GENESIS 49:
10 THE SCEPTRE [HEBREW: SHEVET] SHALL NOT DEPART FROM JUDAH, NOR A LAWGIVER FROM BETWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL SHILOH COME; AND UNTO HIM SHALL THE GATHERING OF THE PEOPLE[S] BE.

3. The Task of Joseph - The Lost Ten Tribes.
The Task of the Lost Ten Tribes is that of a part of the Western peoples headed by "Joseph" meaning Britain and America.
The Tribes of Joseph will become the richest and most powerful nations on earth.
GENESIS 27: 29 LET PEOPLES SERVE YOU, AND NATIONS BOW DOWN TO YOU. BE LORD OVER YOUR BRETHREN, AND LET YOUR MOTHER'S SONS BOW DOWN TO YOU. CURSED BE EVERY ONE THAT CURSES YOU, AND BLESSED BE EVERY ONE THAT BLESSES YOU.
NUMBERS 24:
8 GOD BRINGS HIM OUT OF EGYPT, HE IS FOR HIM LIKE THE HORN OF THE RAEM. HE WILL DEVOUR THE NATIONS WHO ARE HIS ADVERSARIES, AND WILL CRUSH THEIR BONES IN PIECES, AND SHATTER THEM WITH HIS ARROWS.
PSALMS 47:
1 O CLAP YOUR HANDS, ALL PEOPLES; SHOUT TO GOD WITH THE VOICE OF JOY. 2 FOR THE LORD MOST HIGH IS TO BE FEARED, A GREAT KING OVER ALL THE EARTH. 3 HE SUBDUES PEOPLES UNDER US AND NATIONS UNDER OUR FEET. 4 HE CHOOSES OUR INHERITANCE FOR US, THE GLORY OF JACOB WHOM HE LOVES.
JEREMIAH 51:
20 HE SAYS, YOU ARE MY WAR-CLUB, MY WEAPON OF WAR; AND WITH YOU I SHATTER NATIONS, AND WITH YOU I DESTROY KINGDOMS.
MICAH 5:
8 THE REMNANT OF JACOB WILL BE AMONG THE NATIONS, AMONG MANY PEOPLES LIKE A LION AMONG THE BEASTS OF THE FOREST, LIKE A YOUNG LION AMONG FLOCKS OF SHEEP, WHICH, IF HE PASSES THROUGH, TRAMPLES DOWN AND TEARS, AND THERE IS NONE TO RESCUE.
The Ten Tribes (especially Joseph)_ will also fulfill the Blessing given to Abraham to civilize and upgrade the rest of humanity.
GENESIS (NKJV) 12:
2 I WILL MAKE YOU A GREAT NATION;
I WILL BLESS YOU
AND MAKE YOUR NAME GREAT;
AND YOU SHALL BE A BLESSING.
3 I WILL BLESS THOSE WHO BLESS YOU,
AND I WILL CURSE HIM WHO CURSES YOU;
AND IN YOU ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH SHALL BE BLESSED.
GENESIS (NKJV) 18:
17 AND THE LORD SAID, SHALL I HIDE FROM ABRAHAM WHAT I AM DOING, 18 SINCE ABRAHAM SHALL SURELY BECOME A GREAT AND MIGHTY NATION, AND ALL THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH SHALL BE BLESSED IN HIM? 19 FOR I HAVE KNOWN HIM, IN ORDER THAT HE MAY COMMAND HIS CHILDREN AND HIS HOUSEHOLD AFTER HIM, THAT THEY KEEP THE WAY OF THE LORD, TO DO RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE, THAT THE LORD MAY BRING TO ABRAHAM WHAT HE HAS SPOKEN TO HIM.

4. Future Unification
JEREMIAH 33:
14 THE DAYS ARE SURELY COMING, SAYS THE LORD, WHEN I WILL FULFILL THE PROMISE I MADE TO THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND THE HOUSE OF JUDAH.
15 IN THOSE DAYS AND AT THAT TIME I WILL CAUSE A RIGHTEOUS BRANCH TO SPRING UP FOR DAVID; AND HE SHALL EXECUTE JUSTICE AND RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE LAND.
EZEKIEL (NKJV) 37:
15 AGAIN THE WORD OF THE LORD CAME TO ME, SAYING, 16 AS FOR YOU, SON OF MAN, TAKE A STICK FOR YOURSELF AND WRITE ON IT: FOR JUDAH AND FOR THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL, HIS COMPANIONS. THEN TAKE ANOTHER STICK AND WRITE ON IT, FOR JOSEPH, THE STICK OF EPHRAIM, AND FOR ALL THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL, HIS COMPANIONS. 17 THEN JOIN THEM ONE TO ANOTHER FOR YOURSELF INTO ONE STICK, AND THEY WILL BECOME ONE IN YOUR HAND.
18 AND WHEN THE CHILDREN OF YOUR PEOPLE SPEAK TO YOU, SAYING, WILL YOU NOT SHOW US WHAT YOU MEAN BY THESE? 19 SAY TO THEM, THUS SAYS THE LORD GOD: SURELY I WILL TAKE THE STICK OF JOSEPH, WHICH IS IN THE HAND OF EPHRAIM, AND THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL, HIS COMPANIONS; AND I WILL JOIN THEM WITH IT, WITH THE STICK OF JUDAH, AND MAKE THEM ONE STICK, AND THEY WILL BE ONE IN MY HAND. 20 AND THE STICKS ON WHICH YOU WRITE WILL BE IN YOUR HAND BEFORE THEIR EYES.
21 THEN SAY TO THEM, THUS SAYS THE LORD GOD: SURELY I WILL TAKE THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL FROM AMONG THE NATIONS, WHEREVER THEY HAVE GONE, AND WILL GATHER THEM FROM EVERY SIDE AND BRING THEM INTO THEIR OWN LAND; 22 AND I WILL MAKE THEM ONE NATION IN THE LAND, ON THE MOUNTAINS OF ISRAEL; AND ONE KING SHALL BE KING OVER THEM ALL; THEY SHALL NO LONGER BE TWO NATIONS, NOR SHALL THEY EVER BE DIVIDED INTO TWO KINGDOMS AGAIN. 23 THEY SHALL NOT DEFILE THEMSELVES ANYMORE WITH THEIR IDOLS, NOR WITH THEIR DETESTABLE THINGS, NOR WITH ANY OF THEIR TRANSGRESSIONS; BUT I WILL DELIVER THEM FROM ALL THEIR DWELLING PLACES IN WHICH THEY HAVE SINNED, AND WILL CLEANSE THEM. THEN THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD.
24 DAVID MY SERVANT SHALL BE KING OVER THEM, AND THEY SHALL ALL HAVE ONE SHEPHERD; THEY SHALL ALSO WALK IN MY JUDGMENTS AND OBSERVE MY STATUTES, AND DO THEM. 25 THEN THEY SHALL DWELL IN THE LAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN TO JACOB MY SERVANT, WHERE YOUR FATHERS DWELT; AND THEY SHALL DWELL THERE, THEY, THEIR CHILDREN, AND THEIR CHILDRENS CHILDREN, FOREVER; AND MY SERVANT DAVID SHALL BE THEIR PRINCE FOREVER. 26 MOREOVER I WILL MAKE A COVENANT OF PEACE WITH THEM, AND IT SHALL BE AN EVERLASTING COVENANT WITH THEM; I WILL ESTABLISH THEM AND MULTIPLY THEM, AND I WILL SET MY SANCTUARY IN THEIR MIDST FOREVERMORE. 27 MY TABERNACLE ALSO SHALL BE WITH THEM; INDEED I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. 28 THE NATIONS ALSO WILL KNOW THAT I, THE LORD, SANCTIFY ISRAEL, WHEN MY SANCTUARY IS IN THEIR MIDST FOREVERMORE.

5. The Solution - Brit-Am/Hebrew Awareness.
To help bring about the future Redemption of Israel it is needed that knowledge of these matters be spread.
Brit-Am/Hebrew Awareness works both to uncover what the BIBLE says ion these matters and to this spread this knowledge.
Brit-Am/Hebrew Awareness needs to be supported!
Who ever helps Brit-Am will be blessed from on High.
GENESIS (NKJV) 28:
18 EARLY THE NEXT MORNING JACOB TOOK THE STONE HE HAD PLACED UNDER HIS HEAD AND SET IT UP AS A PILLAR AND POURED OIL ON TOP OF IT.
19 HE CALLED THAT PLACE BETHEL, THOUGH THE CITY USED TO BE CALLED LUZ.
20 THEN JACOB MADE A VOW, SAYING, IF GOD WILL BE WITH ME AND WILL WATCH OVER ME ON THIS JOURNEY I AM TAKING AND WILL GIVE ME FOOD TO EAT AND CLOTHES TO WEAR
21 SO THAT I RETURN SAFELY TO MY FATHERS HOUSEHOLD, THEN THE LORD WILL BE MY GOD
22 AND THIS STONE THAT I HAVE SET UP AS A PILLAR WILL BE GODS HOUSE, AND OF ALL THAT YOU GIVE ME I WILL GIVE YOU A TENTH.
MALACHI 3:
10 BRING ALL THE TITHES INTO THE STOREHOUSE,
THAT THERE MAY BE FOOD IN MY HOUSE,
AND TRY ME NOW IN THIS,
SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS,
'IF I WILL NOT OPEN FOR YOU THE WINDOWS OF HEAVEN
AND POUR OUT FOR YOU SUCH BLESSING
THAT THERE WILL NOT BE ROOM ENOUGH TO RECEIVE IT.
PROVERBS 3:
9 HONOR THE LORD WITH YOUR WEALTH
AND WITH THE FIRST OF ALL YOUR PRODUCE,
10 SO YOUR BARNS WILL BE FILLED WITH ABUNDANCE,
AND YOUR VATS WILL BURST OPEN WITH NEW WINE.
