Come on, Rob, Jews are not and can not be Judah. And Rahab wasn't a whore, she was an Innkeeper. ISRAEL DIDN'T "BECOME A NATION" in 1948 – people can't become a nation, they can become a state or country, but nations arise through birth – it's literally in the name.
nation (n.) c. 1300, nacioun, "a race of people, large group of people with common ancestry and language," from Old French nacion "birth, rank; descendants, relatives; country, homeland" (12c.) and directly from Latin nationem (nominative natio) "birth, origin; breed, stock, kind, species; race of people, tribe," literally "that which has been born," from natus, past participle of nasci "be born" (Old Latin gnasci), from PIE root *gene- "give birth, beget," with derivatives referring to procreation and familial and tribal groups.
Jews can't claim to be Judah AND Israel, Israel was the 10 northern tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, Dan, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Naphtali, Issachar, Reuben, and Simeon. Judah was the 2 southern tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The tribe of Judah is NEVER called Jews in the bible btw, it's always called Judah.
Jews are an ethno-religious group, the Judah of the bible is a multi tribed kingdom. It's physically IMPOSSIBLE for them to be the kingdom of Judah.
You said the reason Jews didn't follow Jesus was because he didn't wipe out their enemies, Jesus said it was because they weren't his sheep (Israelites) and their father is the devil.
"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed…
…Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word.
Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." -Jn 8:31, 40-44
Where do you think all the Canaanites and Edomites living in Judea at that time went after its destruction? They didn't just disappear and they couldn't follow Christ since they can't hear his voice.
"Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." -Jn 10:24-27
You need to research this topic more.
"And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they slew the Canaanites that inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. And the name of the city was called Hormah.
Also Judah took Gaza with the coast thereof, and Askelon with the coast thereof, and Ekron with the coast thereof.
And the LORD was with Judah; and he drave out [the inhabitants of] the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.
And the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites that inhabited Jerusalem; but the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem unto this day." -Judg 1:17-21
"Hyrcanus took also Dora and Marissa, cities of Idumea (Edom), and subdued all the Idumeans; and permitted them to stay in that country, if they would circumcise their genitals, and make use of the laws of the Jews; and they were so desirous of living in the country of their forefathers, that they submitted to the use of circumcision, and of the rest of the Jewish ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, that they were hereafter no other than Jews." -Josephus, Antiquities 13.9.1
"After the conquest of Judah by the Babylonians, the Edomites were allowed to settle in southern Palestine. At the same time they were driven by the Nabatæans from Idumea…Judas Maccabeus conquered their territory for a time (B.C. 163). They were again subdued by John Hyrcanus (c. 125 B.C.), by whom they were forced to observe Jewish rites and laws. They were then incorporated with the Jewish nation, and their country was called by the Greeks and Romans "Idumea".
From this time the Idumeans ceased to be a separate people, though the name "Idumea" still existed the time of Jerome." -Edox/Idumea, The Jewish Encyclopedia
Rob, my daughter Natalie and I have enjoyed many of your videos and have learned quite a lot which we love to regularly share with others. We are also following you on FB and receiving many of your posts on. I was wondering how we could view the comment button, so we could respond to some of your posts. We are surely not among those who would be attacking you. Blessings in Jesus!!!
