Chapter 1: “Why Is Yeshua Mashiach Ben Yosef-Messiah Son of Joseph?”

Shalom and welcome from the house of Joseph (or Ephraim). I am Norman Willis, the acting head of the nascent Stick of Joseph of Ezekiel 37:16.

Ezekiel 37:16
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.’
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יחזקאל לז:טז
(16) וְאַתָּה בֶן אָדָם קַח לְךָ עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתֹב עָלָיו לִיהוּדָה וְלִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי] | וּלְקַח עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתוֹב עָלָיו לְיוֹסֵף עֵץ אֶפְרַיִם וְכָל בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי]:

I am also the acting head of the Min HaNetzerim, or the original first century Jewish and Israelite sect of the Nazarenes. (And this is not the Church of the Nazarene, but rather the original Jewish and Israelite sect of the Nazarenes that we read about in the book of Acts, that was later persecuted unto extinction, and is being revived in the modern day, according to prophesy!)

Ma’asei (Acts) 24:5
5 For we have found this man a plague, a creator of dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

And for those who have never heard of the Stick of Joseph, we want to take a few short chapters to orient you to the modern-day issues that we will cover in detail throughout this Bible documentary series.

Because the Stick of Joseph is the vehicle that will bring the Lost Ten Tribes (or the lost children of Joseph) together in exile, so that eventually they can unite with brother Judah in the land of Israel about 2 or 3 generations from now! (And we will show you the whole prophetic timeline as this video series progresses!)

Ezekiel 37:16-17
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
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יחזקאל לז:טז-יז
(16) וְאַתָּה בֶן אָדָם קַח לְךָ עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתֹב עָלָיו לִיהוּדָה וְלִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי] | וּלְקַח עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתוֹב עָלָיו לְיוֹסֵף עֵץ אֶפְרַיִם וְכָל בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי]: (17) וְקָרַב אֹתָם אֶחָד אֶל אֶחָד לְךָ לְעֵץ אֶחָד | וְהָיוּ לַאֲחָדִים בְּיָדֶךָ:

There are many issues to overcome before Joseph can return home—not the least of which is that the house of Judah is still engaged in a generations-old war against the sons of Joseph! And this war goes back long before the first century and the death of Yeshua (or “Jesus”).

Genesis 37:20
20 Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, ‘Some wild beast has devoured him.’ We shall see what will become of his dreams!”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
בראשית לז:כ
(20) וְעַתָּה לְכוּ וְנַהַרְגֵהוּ וְנַשְׁלִכֵהוּ בְּאַחַד הַבֹּרוֹת וְאָמַרְנוּ חַיָּה רָעָה אֲכָלָתְהוּ | וְנִרְאֶה מַה יִּהְיוּ חֲלֹמֹתָיו:

Tragically, we will also see that many Josephites are still lost inside the house of Esav—and that they need to come out of the house of Esav, and separate themselves from Esav’s ways, before they can organize in exile! And Joseph’s failure to properly separate from the Esavite system causes Judah to confuse the Josephites with Esav! Judah thinks Joseph and Esav are one in the same, at least partly because Joseph has not yet left the Esavite system! He still looks Esavite—so Judah cannot tell the difference!

And sadly, this leads Talmudic Orthodox Judah to pray for Joseph’s death three times each weekday, just like he prays for the death of Esav! And we are literally talking matters of life and death here!

“For the apostates [meaning anyone who has left Orthodox Judaism, such as Yeshua (or Jesus), and everyone who follows Him] let there be no hope! And uproot the kingdom of arrogance speedily and in our days! May the Nazarenes and [all] the [other] sectarians [“minim”] perish, as in a moment! Let them be blotted out of the Book of Life, and not be written together with the righteous! You are praised, O Adonai, who subdues the arrogant!”

Min HaNetzerim and the Stick of Joseph

Now, someone will ask, why is it Nazarene Israel is starting the Stick of Joseph! And the answer is that one of the main missions of the Min HaNetzerim was always to gather the lost sons of Joseph together, and then in the end times, to bring Joseph together to form a prophesied political organization called the Stick of Joseph!

Yochanan (John) 11:52
52 and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of Elohim who were scattered abroad.

This is the next step in establishing the Jewish Millennial Reign! (And as sad as it is to say, it is precisely because the Josephites [or Ephraimites] are still thinking like Esav, they have such a hard time understanding the need for this prophesied political organization!

Josephites have a difficult time taking this prophecy seriously. (And it is going to cost the majority of the Josephites their very lives)! But regardless, the point of the prophesied political Stick of Joseph is to form a transitional government for the house of Joseph, just like Judah also had to form a transitional self-government called the Zionist Congresses, before he could re-enter the land!

Joseph needs to realize that it is only after he takes this transitional kingdom step that he can be reunited with his brothers in Judah! And as ironic as it sounds, this prophesied political organization is the transitional vehicle that will also help lost Joseph to purify himself, so that Elohim will bring him home!

Yeshua and the three Mashiach roles

Now we have a lot of material to cover. And I promise you, you have never heard this message presented before—and this is something that you need to know if you want to survive the end times and come back home to the land of Israel!

But before we begin, we need to correct one longstanding mis-understanding that has kept the two houses of Israel apart until now! And that is, our one-and-only Rebbe, Yeshua ben Yosef (or “Jesus”) came at the end of the Second Temple Era not primarily in the role of Mashiach ben David (as most Notzrim [or Christians] think)!

Rather, we will show that there are three Mashiach (or Messiah roles), and that while Yeshua does fulfill all of them, He was not called to fulfill the Davidic Messiah role to its fullness in the first century! And this is a mystery that has been hidden until these end times! And this is critical to understand, because it changes the way both Jews and Christians should look at Yeshua and His three Mashiach roles!

We will talk about all of the details later, but what we will see is that Yeshua came in the first century, first as Mashiach Nagid (or Messiah the Director, or Messiah the Prince of Daniel 9:25-26).

Daniel 9:25
25 “Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times. 
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
דָּנִיֵּאל ט:כה
(25) וְתֵדַע וְתַשְׂכֵּל מִן מֹצָא דָבָר לְהָשִׁיב וְלִבְנוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִַם עַד מָשִׁיחַ נָגִיד שָׁבֻעִים שִׁבְעָה | וְשָׁבֻעִים שִׁשִּׁים וּשְׁנַיִם תָּשׁוּב וְנִבְנְתָה רְחוֹב וְחָרוּץ וּבְצוֹק הָעִתִּים:

And He also came in the fullness of His role as Mashiach ben Yosef (or the Messiah for the lost house of Joseph)!

Yochanan (John) 1:45
45 Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom Moshe in the law, and also the prophets, wrote—Yeshua of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

And most Christians have never heard of this! Most Christians (or Notzrim) think that Yeshua came in the fullness of the role of Mashiach ben David—but that is not right!

What we will see is that the role of the Messiah for the house of Joseph had to be fulfilled before the role of the Davidic Messiah for the house of Judah! And we are going to see that this changes Christian and Jewish understandings of Yeshua’s purpose completely!

(Tragically, most Notzrim [or Christians] have never even heard of the Messiah ben Yosef role, which is to regather the Lost Ten Tribes over many generations, and help them form their own separate nation in the end times! And this ignorance on the part of most Notzrim (or most Christians) has led to a great deal of horrific Catholic and Christian bloodshed and violence against brother Judah throughout the ages! And even today there is Catholic and Christian anti-Semitism, and it must stop! (And this is the teaching that can put a stop to it!)

In this study, we will see that this realization that Yeshua came primarily in the roles of Mashiach Nagid and Mashiach ben Yosef can open the gates of understanding and pave the way for peaceful and loving reunification between lost Joseph and Judah! Thus, fulfilling Bible prophecy, sot that all twelve tribes of Israel can dwell together as brothers once again.

Psalms 133:1
1 Song of Ascents. Of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
תְּהִלִים קלא:א
(1) שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלוֹת לְדָוִד | הִנֵּה מַה טּוֹב וּמַה נָּעִים שֶׁבֶת אַחִים גַּם יָחַד:

The key here is for both Judah and Joseph to realize that there are three Mashiach roles—and that Yeshua has a program for His people to enter into! And once Joseph does enter in, it will literally be a new Biblical era! It will be a “new dispensation” of re-unification, if we can use that term! This teaching can put an end to the hatred and violence that goes both ways, and it can lead to unity!

Hosea 14:8
8 “Ephraim shall say, ‘What have I to do anymore with idols?’ I have heard and observed him. I am like a green cypress tree; Your fruit is found in Me.”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
הושע יד:ט
(9) אֶפְרַיִם מַה לִּי עוֹד לָעֲצַבִּים | אֲנִי עָנִיתִי וַאֲשׁוּרֶנּוּ אֲנִי כִּבְרוֹשׁ רַעֲנָן מִמֶּנִּי פֶּרְיְךָ נִמְצָא:

According to B’reisheet (Genesis) 12:3 (and many other passages), Israelites are supposed to help each other, not curse or kill each other! This knowledge will help stop the hatred and start the brotherly love!

Genesis 12:3
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.”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
בְּרֵאשִׁית יב:ג
(3) וַאֲבָרֲכָה מְבָרְכֶיךָ וּמְקַלֶּלְךָ אָאֹר | וְנִבְרְכוּ בְךָ כֹּל מִשְׁפְּחֹת הָאֲדָמָה:

And we know that there will be questions, so we want to say this very carefully. But while Yeshua was Jewish, and while He did minister first to Judah, He also sent His Jewish disciples primarily to find and bring back the lost tribes of the northern house of Joseph (or the lost tribes of the house of Israel)!

Mattityahu (Matthew) 15:24
24 But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

Now, because someone will ask, clearly Yeshua had Davidic genealogy! (And Levitical genealogy!)

Mattityahu (Matthew) 1:1
1 The book of the genealogy of Yeshua Mashiach, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham:

Yet His mission on His first advent was to begin regathering the lost sheep of the northern house of Joseph (or the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel, also called Ephraim)!

Yochanan (John) 4:5
5 So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

And this confusion has brought about a lot of strife between Judah and Joseph over the years—and it is time for Judah and Joseph to submit to the words and the will of Elohim (or God).

Political union of Ezekiel 37

When we get to the Biblical Timeline (after these first few short chapters of orientation), we will see overwhelming evidence that the Lost Tribes of Joseph are today lost mostly inside of Protestant Christendom (although not exclusively)! (There are many Josephites still lost inside of Catholicism, and Eastern Orthodoxy, and really, in every population worldwide!)

Now we want to be crystal clear! It would be incorrect to say that the Christians are the Lost Ten Tribes of Joseph! We will show you the numbers in the Tanach Timeline. But in reality, Joseph constitutes only about 10% of greater Christendom as a whole [including the Catholics and Eastern Orthodox]!

What is more correct is to say that the Lost Ten Tribes of Joseph are lost inside of Christendom (and all other populations)!

In the Prophetic Timeline we will see that lost Israelites are to be found in literally all cultures, as the late Chabad Rebbe Schneerson also taught! And it is the job of the Min HaNetzerim to find the lost Josephites and reorient them back to the eternal marital covenant in Torah of Moshe (or the Law of Moses), and in the words of the prophets!

As we will see, this spiritual reorientation of Joseph would eventually lead to a political union, as found in Ezekiel 37:16!

Ezekiel 37:16
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.’ 
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְחֶזְקֵאל לז:טז
(16) וְאַתָּה בֶן אָדָם קַח לְךָ עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתֹב עָלָיו לִיהוּדָה וְלִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי] | וּלְקַח עֵץ אֶחָד וּכְתוֹב עָלָיו לְיוֹסֵף עֵץ אֶפְרַיִם וְכָל בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל חברו [חֲבֵרָיו קרי]:

And after Joseph establishes this political kingdom union in exile, then lost Joseph can approach brother Judah to initiate dialogue—and this will lead (ultimately) to the Ingathering of the Lost Ten Tribes of Joseph, (about 2 or 3 generations from now)! And this will lead to the Millennial Reign of the Mashiach!

Ezekiel 37:17
17 Then join them one to another for yourself into one stick, and they will become one in your hand
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְחֶזְקֵאל לז:יז
(17) וְקָרַב אֹתָם אֶחָד אֶל אֶחָד לְךָ לְעֵץ אֶחָד | וְהָיוּ לַאֲחָדִים בְּיָדֶךָ:

And, how shall I say this? With all the respect to our Orthodox brethren, from my personal experience with the rabbis, many in the Haredi community (especially in the Chabad and in the Sanhedrin), already know that the Lost Tribes of Joseph are lost primarily inside of Protestantism!

We will see that they have secret studies and teachings about this! Only, you would never know it, because Judah is very closed mouthed. Outwardly, the Haredi community will typically disavow any and all knowledge of their secret teachings, and they will also disavow any and all knowledge of the lost tribes of Joseph, or even of Mashiach ben Yosef! They will purposefully mislead you!

And how do I say this in love? Respectfully, because they consider themselves at war with Joseph, they will sometimes dissemble (meaning they will speak in half-truths)! They use wartime propaganda, and we intend to expose this practice in order to save Josephite lives!

Judah’s war against Joseph

As we will see, many (or even most) of the more knowledgeable rabbis will not tell you what they know, because the Talmud strictly forbids telling outsiders what either the Talmud or the Tanach (or the Old Testament) say!

(And that is why they do not want you to read these books for yourself)!

Sefaria: Talmud Tractate Chagigah 13a
And Rabbi Ami said further: The words of Torah may not be transmitted to a gentile, as it is stated: “He has not dealt so with any nation, and as for His ordinances, they have not known them” (Psalms 147:20).
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
וְאָמַר רַבִּי אַמֵּי: אֵין מוֹסְרִין דִּבְרֵי תוֹרָה לְגוֹי, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״לֹא עָשָׂה כֵן לְכׇל גּוֹי וּמִשְׁפָּטִים בַּל יְדָעוּם”.

And as bad as it might sound, Judah considers Joseph very much to be an outsider. Why? Because Joseph believes the entire Tanach (or the Older Covenant), including the Torah, the Neviim (or the prophets) and the Ketuvim (or the Writings).

And Joseph believes the entire Tanach, rather than the Talmud (which is a book written by men)! Joseph believes what the Psalms and the rest of the TNK teach us—which is that Mashiach ben Yosef would be a divine Mashiach! But Judah rejects the concept of a divine Mashiach as found in the Psalms. And as not-nice as it is to say, Judah is literally willing to kill over it!

Psalms 45:6
6 Your throne, O Elohim, is forever and ever; A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
תהילים מה:ז
(7) כִּסְאֲךָ אֱלֹהִים עוֹלָם וָעֶד | שֵׁבֶט מִישֹׁר שֵׁבֶט מַלְכוּתֶךָ:

And they will downplay it, but the net upshot is that Judah considers Joseph to be their sworn blood enemy! (And we will see that there is literally a plan to exterminate Joseph right along with Esav!)

And this is not an exaggeration: Esav and Joseph both are Judah’s target, because Judah refuses to publicly admit the difference between Joseph and Esav—and therefore Judah is still at war with Joseph! And we are sure that Judah and Levi will give us their reasons for keeping Joseph under information blackout, and feeding him disinformation, but what “information blackout” and disinformation means is that Judah is literally at war with Joseph!

Now, Joseph does need to leave the Esavite system completely—there can be no question about that! Joseph also needs to take the initiative to form the Stick of Joseph, in keeping with Ezekiel 37:16-17 if he wants to live, because the rabbis will continue to try blocking Joseph. And according to prophecy, most of Joseph will die!

And in the timeline, we will see that as shocking as it sounds, this is the rabbinical plan—and therefore, this is what will take place unless Joseph organizes and declares himself as a people! We will see that there is a clear and present danger!

Rabbinical opposition to Joseph

Now, back in 5764 (or 2004), I was living in Jerusalem, and one Haredi rabbi who was sympathetic to Joseph’s cause told me, “There will never be a time when the rabbis do not need to oppose you!” (Meaning, the rabbis will try to block Joseph from coming home!)

And for a long time, I marveled that he would say such a thing! What an amazing statement! “There will never be a time when the rabbis do not need to oppose you!

As we will see, no matter how nice they might be as people, the rabbis think Josephite Notzrim are Esavite Notzrim—and they refuse to acknowledge the difference! And that is why they take an adversarial role against not just Mashiach ben Yosef, but also against the returning sons of Joseph! (And in fact, their hatred of Joseph’s Messiah also has to do with their ancient hatred and jealousy towards Joseph!)

Isaiah 11:13 (LEB)
13 And the jealousy of Ephraim shall depart, and the enemies of Judah shall be cut off. Ephraim shall not be jealous of Judah, and Judah shall not be an enemy of Ephraim.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְשַׁעְיָהוּ יא:יג
(13) וְסָרָה קִנְאַת אֶפְרַיִם וְצֹרְרֵי יְהוּדָה יִכָּרֵתוּ | אֶפְרַיִם לֹא יְקַנֵּא אֶת יְהוּדָה וִיהוּדָה לֹא יָצֹר אֶת אֶפְרָיִם:

And as we will see in the Tanach timeline, Joseph can expect this war-based information blackout to continue until after Armageddon! And that is yet another reason why Joseph needs to do what his Mashiach and the prophecies say—because Judah will be against Joseph until after Armageddon! Until Armageddon, Judah will continue to try to stand in Joseph’s way, and undo everything that Joseph is doing! And undermine his inheritance!

Romim (Romans) 11:28
28 Concerning the Good News they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

The acts of the forefathers

Now we are going to cover a lot of information that you almost certainly will never hear anywhere else! As we will show in the Tanach Timeline, Judah’s adversarial role goes all the way back to B’reisheet (Genesis) 4 with the murder of the younger brother by the older brother!

Genesis 4:8
8 Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
בְּרֵאשִׁית ד:ח
(8) וַיֹּאמֶר קַיִן אֶל הֶבֶל אָחִיו | וַיְהִי בִּהְיוֹתָם בַּשָּׂדֶה וַיָּקָם קַיִן אֶל הֶבֶל אָחִיו וַיַּהַרְגֵהוּ:

And we will need to talk extensively about the saying of Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman (or Nachmanides, or the Ramban), that the acts of the forefathers give us a sign (or a portent, or a pattern for the children)!

Sefaria: Ramban on Gen. 12:6
It is indeed a great matter which our Rabbis mentioned briefly, saying: “Whatever has happened to the patriarchs is a sign to the children.”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
וְהוּא עִנְיָן גָּדוֹל הִזְכִּירוּהוּ רַבּוֹתֵינוּ בְּדֶרֶךְ קְצָרָה וְאָמְרוּ (תנחומא ט), כָּל מָה שֶׁאֵרַע לָאָבוֹת סִימָן לַבָּנִים.

That means that Yahweh works in patterns! Therefore, when we see the Patriarchs doing something in Scripture, this gives us a prophetic shadow picture (or a prophetic hint or a remez) that this kind of pattern will occur again and again throughout the rest of the NK!

Qorintim Aleph (First Corinthians) 10:11
11 Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

And it is essential to see and understand these Nachmanides patterns in Genesis 4 and in Genesis 37, where the older brother either slays or enslaves the younger. These Nachmanides patterns show us why Judah’s ongoing war against Joseph began back in Genesis 37 (in Parashat Vayeshev)! And it explains why the Orthodox rabbis (and other Talmudists) are still at war with the house of Joseph (ever since ancient times)!

Genesis 37:20
20 Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, ‘Some wild beast has devoured him.’ We shall see what will become of his dreams!”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
בְּרֵאשִׁית לז:כ
(20) וְעַתָּה לְכוּ וְנַהַרְגֵהוּ וְנַשְׁלִכֵהוּ בְּאַחַד הַבֹּרוֹת וְאָמַרְנוּ חַיָּה רָעָה אֲכָלָתְהוּ | וְנִרְאֶה מַה יִּהְיוּ חֲלֹמֹתָיו:

And the Orthodox at the lower levels may not know what they are doing, but the ones at the higher levels are aware!! And in love, this is not a joke! It is very real!

Joseph’s future

If Joseph values his life and the lives of his wives and children, what it means is that Joseph needs to take the initiative in forming his own self-government, as Ezekiel 37 says!

Amos 9:11
11 “On that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, And repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins, And rebuild it as in the days of old;
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
עָמוֹס ט:יא
(11) בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָקִים אֶת סֻכַּת דָּוִיד הַנֹּפֶלֶת | וְגָדַרְתִּי אֶת פִּרְצֵיהֶן וַהֲרִסֹתָיו אָקִים וּבְנִיתִיהָ כִּימֵי עוֹלָם:

Joseph needs to take a determined lead in his own self-determination, because the rabbis are in an oppositional role! The Talmudic rabbis have their own separate program in the Talmud that replaces the prophecies Yahweh gave over Joseph in the Tanach!

Sefaria: Tractate Sanhedrin 59a
And Rabbi Yoḥanan says: A gentile who engages in Torah study is liable to receive the death penalty; as it is stated: “Moses commanded us a law, an inheritance of the congregation of Jacob” (Deuteronomy 33:4), indicating that it is an inheritance for us, and not for them.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
וְאָמַר רַבִּי יוֹחָנָן: גּוֹי שֶׁעוֹסֵק בַּתּוֹרָה חַיָּיב מִיתָה, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר: ״תּוֹרָה צִוָּה לָנוּ מֹשֶׁה מוֹרָשָׁה״, לָנוּ מוֹרָשָׁה וְלֹא לָהֶם.

The Tanach says that Joseph will come home, but the rabbinic Talmud says, “No!” Therefore, if Joseph does not take the initiative to form his own government, he will not come home but will perish in the Dispersion. (Because the rabbis hate the sons of Joseph and the very concept of a Divine Messiah)!

And as we will see, many passages such as Isaiah 10:22 tell us that some 90% or more of Joseph will not take this seriously! And therefore, he will not organize—and thus some 90+% of Joseph will die in the Dispersion (outside the land of Israel)! So, in a very real sense, this teaching is life and death for the house of Joseph! (And for the house of Judah as well!)

Isaiah 10:22
22 For though your people, O Israel, be as the sand of the sea, A remnant of them will return; The destruction decreed shall overflow with righteousness.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְשַׁעְיָהוּ י:כב
(22) כִּי אִם יִהְיֶה עַמְּךָ יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּחוֹל הַיָּם שְׁאָר יָשׁוּב בּוֹ | כִּלָּיוֹן חָרוּץ שׁוֹטֵף צְדָקָה:
Personal experience

Now, I have faced massive skepticism from both Jews and Christians when I tell them that the Lost Ten Tribes of the House of Joseph are lost mainly inside of Protestantism (but also inside of all other populations).

However, near the end of this video series, I will tell you of how I first learned about Mashiach ben Yosef role and the covert war against Joseph when the Sanhedrin had my computer hijacked in 5776 (or 2016) with me on it!

I was threatened, and then they told me they wanted me to play the Mashiach ben Yosef role (and they have it pre-choreographed), so that I could bring the Lost Ten Tribes of Joseph home according to their Talmudic interpretation (rather than according to the prophecies in the Tanach)! It was utterly bewildering! And no one ever apologized—or even explained! Even today the rabbis will not talk with me about it, because Judah is at war with Joseph, and effectively has Joseph under wartime information blackout!

A warning to both houses

Well, what shall we say about Judah’s ongoing covert war on Joseph? Romans 8:28 tells us that all things work together for good for those who are called by Elohim according to His purposes, so we do not have any grudges! They meant it for evil, but Yahweh means it for good!

Romim (Romans) 8:28
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love Elohim, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

We recognize that Judah thinks he is doing a good thing by declaring hidden warfare on the divine Mashiach ben Yosef that the Tanach speaks of—and they think it is also a good thing to declare war against his Josephite followers! The only problem is that (like with Joseph), Judah is not following the words that Elohim gives in His Tanach (or the Older Covenant)! And no matter whether your name is Judah, or Levi, or Joseph, disobedience to Yahweh’s words will get you killed! And we Love brother Judah, and we do not want to see that for brother Judah!

Deuteronomy 27:26
26 ‘Cursed is the one who does not confirm all the words of this law.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!'”
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
דְּבָרִים כז:כו

Dangerous pre-choreographed errors

And for the members of the Sanhedrin, as someone who tried his best to follow the Talmudic choreography, I will show you why the rabbinic choreography of the Mashiach ben Yosef role is impossible (and can never work)! And then because we love Judah and want Judah to succeed in establishing the Jewish Millennial Reign, I will show you what can work instead!

Ezekiel 37:22
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.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְחֶזְקֵאל לז:כב
(22) וְעָשִׂיתִי אֹתָם לְגוֹי אֶחָד בָּאָרֶץ בְּהָרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וּמֶלֶךְ אֶחָד יִהְיֶה לְכֻלָּם לְמֶלֶךְ | וְלֹא יהיה [יִהְיוּ קרי] עוֹד לִשְׁנֵי גוֹיִם וְלֹא יֵחָצוּ עוֹד לִשְׁתֵּי מַמְלָכוֹת עוֹד:

Further, we want to make the Prime Minister and the IDF aware that the Talmudic eschatological picture of the end time wars does not match Elohim’s prophecies, as given in the Tanach!

Judah likes to pretend that the Talmud reflects the prophecies in the NK, but it does not! In fact, most rabbis are pretty much ignorant of the eschatological picture painted by the words of the prophets in the NK!

And while we cannot really change the rabbis, we hope to help the military leadership of Judah understand what the prophecies in the NK say, so that more Jews can survive the coming end-time wars! Because if Judah follows the Talmudic end time war scenario, they will get blindsided—and we do not want to see that!

The divinity division

Now, one big issue that we will see all throughout this study is that before the reunification can take place, the Two Houses will have to agree about the divinity of the Mashiach! And the divinity of Mashiach is attested all throughout the Tanach!

However, because the rabbis generally ignore the NK (or the Prophets and the Writings), Judah insists that all believers in a divine Mashiach are idol worshippers belonging to the house of Esav—(and that is not correct)!

Only if you cannot see the divinity of Mashiach because you do not accept the Tanach at its face value, then of course you will not be able to tell the difference between Joseph and Esav! And that is the case right now! And that is why Judah is planning the extermination or enslavement of the house of Joseph, right along with the house of Esav.

Opposing sects in both houses

But someone will ask, “What do you mean? What kinds of differences are there between Esavite and Josephite Christians? Both Esav and Joseph believe in a divine Mashiach, so how can there be any difference?” And that is a very good question! To answer that question, let us look at how it is in Judaism.

In Judaism, you have all kinds of Jews. There are secular Jews, reform (or reconstructionist) Jews, and there are Zionist and non-Zionist Jews. For example, you have religious groups such as the anti-Zionist Neturei Karta, who are clearly anti-Zionist, and who even meet with Palestinian terrorists! (In fact, it is reported that some Jews even give their tithes to Palestinian terror groups!) So, Esav might argue that “Both the anti-Zionist Neturei Karta and the Pro-Zionist Jewish community are both Jewish!” And many in Esav do not see a difference!

Neturei Karta, sects in Judaism, Jewish sects, Zionism, Anti-zionism

(And just to be clear, it is not Joseph’s job to say who is or is not a Jew!) We are just pointing out that Neturei Karta does photo ops and publicity marches with the Palestinian terror groups who ultimately call for the elimination of all Jews (Elohim forbid)!) And groups like the anti-Zionist Neturei Karta reject the Israeli Haredi community—and the Israeli Haredi community rejects the Neturei Karta!

So, let us just ask—are groups like Neturei Karta the same as the Israeli Haredi community? Do they belong to the same min (sect)? Do they build the same kingdom? (Of course not!)

If we are willing to receive it, the differences between Josephite Christians and Esavite Christians are similarly extreme! Josephites and Esavites are polar opposites—and that is because Esav’s version of Christianity is a deception! Catholicism (and even Protestant Christianity) are not what Yeshua said to do!

Consider: Esav is against a Jewish Millennial Reign, just like he is against Jewish and Israeli sovereignty over the land of Israel! Yet because the Esavite version of Christianity is easier to practice than the Josephite kind, there are many more Esavite Catholics and Christians than there are of the Josephite kind! This is perhaps for much the same reasons why there are more reform Jews than there are Haredim!

Esav vs Joseph

Today, most of Joseph is still mixed in with Esav, and he needs to separate himself! In fact, most of true Joseph is not yet aware of his identity! Because of that, it can be hard to separate Joseph from Esav! And because of that, Judah and Levi typically lump Joseph in with Esav, as if they are all Esav! In fact, this misunderstanding is codified in the Jewish Talmud, and in their daily death prayers over all believers in a Divine Mashiach!

“For the apostates [meaning anyone who has left Orthodox Judaism, such as Yeshua (or Jesus), and everyone who follows Him] let there be no hope! And uproot the kingdom of arrogance speedily and in our days! May the Nazarenes and [all] the [other] sectarians [“minim”] perish, as in a moment! Let them be blotted out of the Book of Life, and not be written together with the righteous! You are praised, O Adonai, who subdues the arrogant!”
[Wikipedia, Jerusalem Talmud-Birkat HaMinim]

But we will see that Judah’s assumption is not accurate! Further, it leads to a false understanding of end-time events! What is more, we will also see that the Sanhedrin, the Chabad, and many devout Haredi Jews know that it is not accurate—yet they do not want to admit what they know, because it would require them to end their ancient generational war on Joseph, and the divine Mashiach for the house of Joseph!

Lost tribes inside Protestant world

But if we think about it, the Lost Tribes of Israel must be somewhere—so who are they?

There are several small groups which claim to be the lost tribes (such as the Bnai Manasseh and others), and we do not deny any of their claims! However, according to Scripture, we are not looking for small groups! Rather, we are looking for one extremely large group who is as numerous as the sand of the sea and the stars of the heavens!

Hosea 1:10 (2:1 MT)
10 “Yet the number of the children of Israel Shall be as the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered. And it shall come to pass In the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ There it shall be said to them, ‘You are sons of the living Elohim.’
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
הושע ב:א
(1) וְהָיָה מִסְפַּר בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּחוֹל הַיָּם אֲשֶׁר לֹא יִמַּד וְלֹא יִסָּפֵר | וְהָיָה בִּמְקוֹם אֲשֶׁר יֵאָמֵר לָהֶם לֹא עַמִּי אַתֶּם יֵאָמֵר לָהֶם בְּנֵי אֵל חָי:

We are talking about billions, and there are only so many choices for groups that number in the billions! So, who are they?

Are they the Muslim people? With all due respect and love to Ishmael, Ishmael was born before Yaakov (or Israel), whereas the line of Israel comes through Yaakov (or Israel)—so the Lost Tribes cannot descend from Ishmael. (And to be clear, Ishmael has other prophecies over him, and we hope to bring him in after the reunification with Judah)!

With respect to the Hindu people, it cannot be the Hindu people, because they do not even read the same book—plus they are polytheists! The same goes true for the Buddhist peoples who are not monotheists, and who do not read the Bible!

The reality is that there are no other groups who number in the billions, and who are “lost” to their identity and the marital covenant in the TNK, and who worship the same Elohim (or God)! The Christians are the only logical choice, because they are the only Gentile people who number in the billions, and who call on the name of a Jewish Mashiach!

Roles: MbY vs MbD

We will cover the whole proof in the Tanach Timeline, but Judah treats Mashiach ben Yosef like a leper—and as we will show, this is mainly because of confusion about the roles assigned to Mashiach ben David, versus Mashiach ben Yosef! And both Christians and Jews have these points confused! That is why both Christians and Jews are presently violating the marital covenant!

One reason that Judah rejects Yeshua is that they say He was not a great military leader! However, what Judah does not realize is that because Yeshua came in the role of Mashiach ben Yosef, His strategy was to send out His disciples into all nations, to find the lost sheep and the lost sparks of the house of Joseph, in order to “call up the reserves” in support of Judah in the coming end time wars! (If you are going to have the biggest wars ever, then the very first thing that a great military leader needs to do is to call up the reserves!)

And we will talk later about the Genesis 35 Alliance. But when you see the Christian Zionists and the Christian Evangelical communities promoting political and military support for the Jews in Israel, what you are seeing is lost Josephites coming to support brother Judah in these end times, even though they will not know their Biblical identities for 2-3 more generations!

Further, those Christian nations who support Israel are of Joseph—while those who are against Israel are of Esav! (That is the easy litmus test!)

Knock, knock!  Stop neglecting the NK!

When we get to the Tanach Timeline, we will see that Jews and Christians are actually estranged brothers in the covenant, and this knowledge will change everything for Judah and Joseph!

Now, again, the Orthodox Sanhedrin, the upper echelons of Chabad, and much of the Haredi community already know that Joseph is hidden primarily amongst the Protestants—and yet they do not seem to care, because of the ancient hatred of Judah towards Joseph that has existed ever since Genesis 37 and Parashat Vayeshev! And as shocking as it is, later in this study, we will see that Talmudic Judah is only interested to take Joseph as converts to Orthodox Judaism, or as slaves (just as our forefather Joseph was sold into slavery)!

Due to time restraints and the enormous volume of material we have to cover, we wanted to topline this at a very high level (and at a rapid pace), for people who already read their Tanach! (However, sadly, that is not possible with Judah, because as we learned recently, most Orthodox rabbis have never even read the full Tanach once!)

We were stunned to learn that Orthodox rabbis do not require candidates for rabbinical ordination to read Elohim’s (or God’s) words even one time before receiving Shmikha (or rabbinic ordination)! They honestly do not think that they need to know the prophecies! (We were gobsmacked!)

“The No.1 thing”, he said, “I edited the commentary on the entire Tanach from beginning to end, which was my first time going through all of Tanach!
[Jerusalem Post interview, Rabbi Tuly Weisz]

If (as a child) you had told me that the Orthodox Jews do not read the Old Testament, I would have told you that you were wrong! But that is really how it is! They only read parts of the Tanach! You can become an elite rabbi without having any idea what the prophets say! And yet the rabbis insist that Joseph bow to Judah and defer to his guidance in the end times! (To us, that is like driving blindfolded!)

A big part of the problem is that most of Judah reads only the Torah (or the first five books of Moshe), but they do not read the NK (meaning the Prophets or the Writings)!

Another thing we have learned recently in our discussions with Orthodox advisors to the Sanhedrin is that certain opinions in the Talmud say that the prophecies are all past history (and not future prophecy)! Many in the Chabad think that the complex prophecies in the NK have already been fulfilled—and so they believe there is no reason to read or study the prophecies!

(Is that not like stopping up your ears to communications from your Boss?)

The goal

Our prayer is that one day, Judah and Joseph will finally be on the same page! But before we can be on the same page, first Judah and Joseph need to be in the same book! And that book must be the Tanach (or the “Older” Foundational Covenant), because it is the only book that both Judah and Joseph have in common!

And we will see that while this will take time, this much-neglected book of the words of Elohim holds the key to bringing Judah and Joseph back together as one in the land, in right order, to establish the Jewish Millennial Reign—and then we can extend membership in the kingdom to the remnant of Ishmael!

Depending on whose numbers you use, Israel’s history is some 3,500 years old—and the house of Joseph has been gone for almost 3,000 of those years! Think about that! Joseph has been gone for at least 77% of Israel’s history—maybe more! And the Two Houses have been on separate pathways all that time!

It will take time and a lot of respectful discussion and dialogue to bring the Two Houses together—but we are encouraged in this task, because the prophecies in the Tanach say it will happen! And Yeshayahu (or Isaiah) 55:11 tells us that Yahweh’s word will not return to Him void, but that it shall accomplish what He wants, and it shall prosper in the thing for which He sent it—so we know it will happen!

Isaiah 55:11
11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT)
יְשַׁעְיָהוּ נה:יא
(11) כֵּן יִהְיֶה דְבָרִי אֲשֶׁר יֵצֵא מִפִּי לֹא יָשׁוּב אֵלַי רֵיקָם | כִּי אִם עָשָׂה אֶת אֲשֶׁר חָפַצְתִּי וְהִצְלִיחַ אֲשֶׁר שְׁלַחְתִּיו:

But how will it happen?

We hope to cover all of these questions exhaustively and in-depth in this series, and from an angle that most Jews and Christians have never even considered! In fact, there is so much material that we will need to break it all down by chapters!

However, by the end of this study, you should know how the words of our Creator in the Tanach call for Judah and Joseph to come together in right order in the end times to help establish the Jewish Millennial Reign! And then after the Jewish Millennial Reign is formed according to Tanach prophecy, we can bring in the remnant of Ishmael!

We hope that this video will generate a lot of respectful discussion! (And we know how much Israelites love to agree on everything, without argument, right??)

There is an old saying that if you get two Jews in a room, you get at least three opinions! So how many opinions will we get when the Two Houses of Israel, Judah and Joseph, finally talk with each other again after almost 3,000 years of separation?

Our hearts and our prayers are with the house of Judah!
Please stay with us for Chapter 2!
