Both in History and in the reality of their identity. But the Lrd will collect them. Where did they go and how will they be Gathered in the End of Days. In Israel today we have Judah, Benjamin, and the Levites; among others. But the Lost Tribes are lost! But they are being gathered from among the nations and in this, they will be found.

End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

When talking about Ephraim, many churches in the western culture have no idea what it means. That is really! For me, this came about years from graduating from bible school, preaching, and teaching for the L-RD. There is no doubt, this is Revelation from the L-RD in these last days. The truth has always been there. It just is a fact that as Gentiles we were not taught nor was it revealed to us. I have covered some of this in our Torah teachings on Ephraim. As we go through Torah we find Ephraim in it. To Abraham, the L-rd said, “I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed.”

How would the nations be blessed? How could it come to pass that this G-d could in fact multiply Abraham’s seed to this number? Of course for man this is impossible, but for G-d nothing is impossible. We find in fact during Jacobs lifetime that Joseph was sold into slavery. He went from slave and in prison to being in the kings court, married, and the second in power. Only the Pharaoh was greater than he. To Joseph was born two sons, both of Hebrew and Gentile heritages. This is the first linking of the tribe of Israel with Gentile. Yet the promise was still given again to the seed of Abraham.

Abraham’s seed: “all Nations of the earth be blessed”

End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

Genesis 26:4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

Abraham

When Jacob was getting on in years and came to his end he prophesied and blessed his grandsons by Joseph. One was Manasseh and the other was Ephraim. It was the older who would receive the blessings and inheritance of the Father, yet it was to Ephraim the younger who was blessed with a blessing that would pronounce him greater than Manasseh. Jacob said of Manasseh “he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great”, then Jacob said of Ephraim “but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.”

Jacob prophesied: “Ephraim’s seed shall be a multitude of nations”

Genesis 48:19 And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.

Jacob

But this story is more than just the “salvation of Gentiles through the Messiah” which was to come. Indeed as the church knows and every believer, our Savior Jesus Christ, died for us. We were grafted in the vine, being wild and far from G-d. Paul speaks of this in Romans 11. Paul also reminds us in Ephesians 2:12 “That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without G-d in the world.” Gentiles who did not know G-d, for G-d had chosen Israel. Salvation came through the Jews and the line of David. We were, as Gentiles, truly wild, without G-d, and having no hope, nor knowledge of the promises found in the covenant of G-d. Today, through our Messiah, we have found these, yet for many Gentiles who were never taught, the true Jewish root of our faith was left out. Yet this is not about the Jewish root, per se, but about Ephraim, whose mix of Hebrew and Egyptian [or Gentile] came about as a result of the Union with Joseph and his Egyptian wife.

Furthermore, the real story of Ephraim is as of the Northern tribe of Israel. After the fall of Solomon’s faith and his departure from the true G-d, the kingdom fell into two kingdoms. The Northern Tribe called Israel or known as Ephraim and the Southern Kingdom known as Judah or the Jews. In Judah was also found Benjamin as well. Over the centuries, Judah or the Jews have always been in the land of Israel. Yes, some were deported, but not all. Yet Judah, even to this day in Israel can be found in the land G-d promised. Yet Judah is only one tribe. There are others, these of which, called Ephraim were scattered to the four winds as were most of Judah or the Jews.

Hosea in his prophecy speaks to Israel as being as the “sand of the sea”. This quote also is found in the Torah. G-d Continued to remind Israel and Judah of the promise he had made to Abraham. Yet we find in the Book, that sadly, Israel and Judah both departed from the L-rd G-d. Hosea was sent to remind and give warning to them regarding their sins. In the first part of the book of warning to these nations, G-d reminds them that one day he would re-gather them. They would not always be at odds with him. He would bring them to a place where this would said to them “Ye are sons of the living G-d.” Here also they are reminded that both the children of Judah and children of Israel [Ephraim] would be gathered together and appoint over themselves one head. This would be the day of Jezreel, or the day that G-d would sow! He would sow his seed over the land he promised. This would be an important reminder to them for Hosea was giving a warning of judgment to this people. A people whom G-d loved and this love was not returned. Therefore, they forsook him in Harlotry and whoredom, he would forsake them for a moment in judgment and then gather them.

Number of Israel: as Sand of the Sea!

Hosea 1:10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living G-d.

11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.

Israel

These passages have tremendous Messianic fulfillment. For all will be fulfilled totally when our L-rd Comes as King of Kings and L-rd of L-rds. This G-d would bring his people to a land where “God would Sow”. Here both the people and the land would benefit as all would grow. A time of plenty, of harvest, of bounty, of peace, and a picture of the millennium.

They shall hear Jezreel: G-d Sows!

Hosea 2:22 And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel.

23 And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; and they shall say, Thou art my G-d.

Thou art my people

Yet for Ephraim because of sins, G-d thrust them out. Jeremiah and Hosea both speaks to this. Here Jeremiah is speaking to Judah on coming judgment. Jeremiah says to them what G-d will do to them for their sins “ And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.” Here we find G-d plainly says he cast out the whole seed of Ephraim. As for Israel, they too would be cast out! But they did not learn from the lesson of Ephraim and what G-d did to them. They went the same way as Ephraim.

Ephraim: Cast out of his sight!

Jeremiah 7:15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.

16 ¶Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make

intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.

Rejected End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

Ephraim having been smitten their root was dried up. No fruit would come from them and even if it did, G-d would slay the beloved fruit of their womb. Further they were to be cast away because they would not listen to the L-rd their G-d. In fact scripture here says Ephraim “shall be wanderers among the nations.” They would be lost in the nations, scattered among them. In this they would lose all identity and understanding of their true roots. Over the centuries this continued to be the fact of the “lost tribes of Israel”, known as Ephraim. As many today believe, including the Jews themselves, these are ‘lost’, that is, the “lost tribes of Israel.”

Ephraim: Wanderers among the nations!

Hosea 9:16 Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb.

17 My G-d will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations

Wanderers End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

Yet as there is judgment which cometh for disobedience there is also a promise of restoration for repentance. For Hosea speaks of Jezreel in different contexts. One in which “G-d will scatter” and another in which “G-d would sow”. G-d has scattered both Israel and Ephraim to the four winds among the nations. Now G-d would ‘sow’ them again in the land of promise which he gave to Abraham. He would re gather them both. Jeremiah speaks to this and so does Hosea. Here we find Hosea quoting a future prophecy which says Ephraim shall say “What have I to do any more with idols?” Jeremiah meanwhile prophesies that both Israel and Ephraim would come with weeping, supplications, in repentance, G-d would lead them. A picture of a future time when this G-d would gather both houses of Israel from all nations on earth where they were dispersed.

Ephraim and Israel: There will be repentance!

Jeremiah 31:9 They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

Hosea 14:8 ¶Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found.

9 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the L-RD are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.

Ephraim End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

Not to leave Israel out, Hosea speaks to this in chapter 8:8 where he says “Israel is swallowed up, now they shall be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.” Jeremiah says “he that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.” Over the centuries both houses have been scattered. Today we have Israel, but within that tiny nation resides a people called Israel but it is of the tribe of Judah, and many called these Jews. Yet, this is one tribe. Among this nation also is found those of the Tribe of Benjamin and Levi as well. But the whole house is not gathered unto Israel yet! This is coming. But the lost tribes of Israel, called Ephraim, are lost! Many today don’t know they are Ephraim, in fact in many churches today and among the believers there are those who are Ephraim. G-d is calling Ephraim out from among the nations to gather them to himself.

Israel: Among the Gentiles!

Hosea 8:6 For from Israel was it also: the workman made it; therefore it is not G-d: but the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.

7 For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: it hath no stalk: the bud shall yield no meal: if so be it yield, the strangers shall swallow it up.

8 ¶Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.

Jeremiah 31:10 ¶Hear the word of the L-RD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock

Out of the Gentiles End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

But Ephraim had severe judgment. She lost all identity with her Hebrew roots. Add to this she is among the gentile nations and churches. Even many of those grafted in Gentiles who are repented and know the L-rd our G-d through the Messiah don’t know or understand their connection to the roots of Hebrew history, let alone the roots to the “lost tribes of Israel”. But deep inside the hearts of these lay the truth. Ephraim, who now rests in the bosom of the nations and the gentile churches are a Cake not turned. Ephraim having mixed with and among the people have no clue to this. But G-d does and is calling them out of all nations and churches for the greatest end time gathering of all time.

Ephraim: a Cake not Turned!

Hosea 7:8 ¶Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.

9 Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, yet he knoweth not.

Cake not turned End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

The major fulfillment of prophecy is spoken by Ezekiel in chapter 37. He took a stick one for Judah and for the children of Israel his companions. Then he took another stick for Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions: and join them one to another into one stick. They shall become one in thine hand. The meaning is that the L-rd G-d would take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim and the tribes of Israel his fellows and put them with him, even with the stick of Judah and make them one stick, they shall be one in mine hand. The L-rd G-d would gather them from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and would gather them on every side and bring them into their own land. He would in fact make these two, one nation. With both these nations also come the ‘strangers and foreigners’ who had joined to them. This also is part of the Torah, where G-d had included for the “heathen who wanted to serve him” to come and join with his people. Paul says it this way in Galatians 3:28; “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” But yet, the gathering of Ephraim and Israel in one is a major end time fulfillment of prophecy.

Stick of Ephraim and of Judah: United in ONE!

Ezekiel 37:16 Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:

17 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.

18 And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?

19 Say unto them, Thus saith the L-rd G-D; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.

20 And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.

21 And say unto them, Thus saith the L-rd G-D; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:

22 And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all:

23 Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their G-d.

Stick of Judah and Ephraim End of Days: The Gathering of Ephraim

This coming up from all nations is not done yet. It has just started! We read in the Torah that the gathering and deliverance of Israel from Egypt led by Moses as being the greatest feat of all time. Yet scripture says of this end time gathering, ”Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the L-RD, that they shall no more say, The L-RD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; But, The L-RD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.”

L-RD: Bringing up the Seed out of all Nations

Jeremiah 23:7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the L-RD, that they shall no more say, The L-RD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

8 But, The L-RD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.

Seed from all Nations The Gathering of Ephraim

Be prepared, this will be done in our day and they shall flow out from America and all other nations, being led by the Moses of this day. After they are Born again and have received Jesus according to John 1, they are given the “power to become the Sons of G-d.” Among these there are those who know they are Ephraim because of the inner witness of the Spirit. That when they keep the Torah, Sabbat, and the Feasts their heart leaps to knowledge of who they are. The soul is witnessed to the touch of G-ds Spirit. His Spirit bears witness with our Spirits we are the children of G-d. This keeping of the commandments, Jesus said, “if you love me, keep my commandments.” The keeping of this is of love, for Ephraim has been saved by Grace through Faith, through the Passover Lamb.

The Remnant of the Seed

The Book says the remnant of the seed of the woman [Israel] are those which keep the commandments of G-d and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. These are those who keep the commandments of G-d and the faith of Jesus. For they overcame the devil by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of G-d, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of G-d, and the faith of Jesus.
