'Lost Jewish Tribe' From India Arrives in Israel

Santana Dec 5, 2006

Carmiel, Israel (CNSNews.com) - Moved by the desire to fulfill ancient Biblical prophecies and undaunted by bureaucratic stumbling blocks and security concerns in a volatile Middle East, more than 200 members of a "lost" Jewish tribe have arrived in Israel from India.

The Bnei Menashe (the children of Manasseh) have been acknowledged by Israel's religious establishment as descendants of one of the ancient 10 "lost tribes" of Israel exiled from the Holy Land 2,700 years ago.

Until about 15 years ago, none had returned to Israel. Since then, only about 1,000 Bnei Menashe had immigrated through various rigorous conversion/immigration plans. But last week, 218 Bnei Menashe new immigrants -- young and old -- arrived on four early morning flights to their new homeland....

Ya know... hadnt thought of this until right now, but dont ya suppose that in order for all the Jews to be reunited in their homeland that the American Indians should begin to migrate in that direction? After all... the Mormons believe the American Indians are Jews!

I'm part Cherokee. I think I'll stay right here. I'd love to visit Israel someday, tho.

I'm not sure, Santana, what prophecy the Jews are looking to fulfill. But the fact that Israel exists as a nation after 2,000 yrs of non-existence is a fulfillment of end time prophecy. Also, the migration of Jews from all corners of the earth back to the land of Israel is another fulfillment of end time prophecy.

Take courage! You will someday! Either before His return or with Him as He returns.
