Arsereth; Other Land, Archêr-‘Erets; Seafaring Tribes; A Year and a Half Journey

In studying the true Israelites, we want to look at a place called Arsereth. Either the word of the Lord is true and Yahweh scattered his people because of the curses they chose, or Yahweh was only threatening and wasn’t really going to uproot the Israelites from the land that he gave them. Yahweh’s words are more true than we know. The Hollywood version of the Israelites is not actually accurate. Maybe the people who say that they are Jews but are not are cashing in on the stories of the poor wandering Jews. Maybe it is more lucrative for them to claim an Israelite heritage than to claim an Assyrian, Babylonian, Philistine, or Egyptian heritage. We know that the people who promote all the evil rituals and worship of false gods would like to take over the world and it seems that hiding behind the name “Jew” makes their evil religion more acceptable to the world. If they are rich and not sitting on donuts then they are probably not real Jews. It is also possible that they believe their defilement of the land prevents the Messiah from coming back on the Day of the Lord. Maybe they believe it hinders the numbers of people from the nations entering in. The people who say that they are Jews but are not create an obscure religion and promote it to the world, then the nations look at them and reject Yahweh altogether. Nothing will hinder the the nations entering into the sheepfold or hinder the Day of the Lord. 

Joh 10:16  And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

After Moses’ prophecy of the blessings or curses that the Israelites were to choose between, and all the consequences associated with choosing curses, Moses tells them what else will happen to them. Moses tells them that the people will have their names blotted out of heaven and the land will become too harsh to grow food. Then the nations will claim that Yahweh rooted them out of their land and threw them into another land.

 

Deu 29:18  Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the LORD our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood;

Deu 29:19  And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst:

Deu 29:20  The LORD will not spare him, but then the anger of the LORD and his jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the LORD shall blot out his name from under heaven.

Deu 29:21  And the LORD shall separate him unto evil out of all the tribes of Israel, according to all the curses of the covenant that are written in this book of the law:

Deu 29:22  So that the generation to come of your children that shall rise up after you, and the stranger that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses which the LORD hath laid upon it;

Deu 29:23  And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:

The evil people walking away from Yahweh will have their names blotted out from heaven. The evil people will be separated from the tribes of Israel. Their children and strangers will see what a harsh land Israel is because Yahweh overthrew it like Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim. Remember that there was a constant pushing and pulling, back and forth from the majority leaning toward evil then the majority leaning toward good. 

Deu 29:24  Even all nations shall say, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this land? what meaneth the heat of this great anger?

Deu 29:25  Then men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt:

Deu 29:26  For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them:

Deu 29:27  And the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book:

Deu 29:28  And the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as it is this day.

Deu 29:29  The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

Deuteronomy 29:28 G2532 And G1808 [²lifted G1473 ³them G2962 ¹ the lord] G575 from G3588   G1093 their land G1473   G1722 in G2372 rage G2532 and G3709 anger, G2532 and G3948 [³fit of temper G3173 ²great G4970 ¹an exceedingly], G2532 and G1544 cast G1473 them G1519 into G1093 [²land G2087 ¹another] G5616 as G3568 now.

ἕτερος 

heteros het'-er-os Of uncertain affinity; (an-, the) other or different

KJV Usage: altered, else, next (day), one, (an-) other, some, strange.

As we see here, in the Greek the word for land means “earth”, γῆ gē, and it is used twice. The second time it is combined with heteros, gē heteros, meaning “another of a different kind of land”. In the Hebrew however there are two different words for land. The first is ‘ădâmâh, or “soil”, and the second is ‘erets meaning “earth or country”.  The word archêr means “hinder, next, or other”. The word ‘erets is used with archêr , reading archêr ‘erets. Since Hebrew is a later translation taken from the Greek Septuagint we can see that the Masoretes were trying to point out something they believed was true and that is that the people would be in another country, or a hinterland, a place beyond the coast. This is one of the problems we have with the Masoretic text because they altered so much scripture to erase Jesus as Messiah that we can hardly trust anything they say. Nonetheless we see how archêr-‘erets can become Arsereth/Arsareth/Arzareth due to the lack of vowels in Hebrew.

The last two words of verse 28 are translated “as now” and should read “just as now”. The context is that the nations and the men will say that in Yahweh’s anger he threw them out into another different land, just as the present time. The nations recognize that Israel has become a riddle and and an enigma because Yahweh, who delivered them out of Egypt, has sent them to another different land.  

Another aspect that we should look at is that the people who came out of Egypt were not all people from each of the tribes. Moses’ mother stayed behind, being too old and weak to leave. We may think that the Hollywood version of the exodus is factual but it is not. While the tribes were in Goshen they worked and traded, bought and sold normally for nearly four hundred years. They had established business relationships and visited other nations regularly. They knew of other places to live besides Egypt and Israel.

The tribe of Dan in particular were experienced merchants. They traveled and traded all over the region. The tribe of Dan were skilled sailors. They had established themselves in several nations and many people from the tribe of Dan did not participate in the wandering in the desert but instead at the time of the exodus they moved to Greece, Spain, and eventually north into the British Isles. They also migrated to the Black Sea and were also known as Scythians. They became known as the Anglo’s and the Saxon’s, Danes and Scots (see Dan Pioneer of Israel  by Colonel J.C. Gawler). The part of the tribe that went into Israel was small but when constant struggles came during the time of the Judges another Danite exodus occurred. 

Judges 5:17 G* Gilead G1722 [²on G3588 ³the G4008 ⁴other side G3588 ⁵of the G* ⁶Jordan G2681 ¹encamped]. G2532 And G* Dan -- G2444 why G3939 does he sojourn G4143 in boats? G* Asher G3939 sojourns G3844 by G123 the shore G2281 of seas, G2532 and G1909 at G3588   G1249.1 his breaches G1473   G2681 he will encamp.

Paul visited the British Isles with the gospel message on one of his last journeys. The archeological evidence of the tribe of Dan, and the Danite ensign of a snake is found all over the world. They weren’t the only tribe that moved west instead of east after entering the promised land. Issacharians  were also known to be in Spain. While the Zebulunites were hearty sailors who could sail anywhere. The ten northern tribes went even further from Israel ending up in the Americas or Arsereth. 

In Ezras prophetic dream he sees the tribulation period when the beast rises up to overtake the world. He also sees a Messiah who comes to save the people. 

2Es 13:32  And the time shall be when these things shall come to pass, and the signs shall happen which I shewed thee before, and then shall my Son be declared, whom thou sawest as a man ascending.

2Es 13:33  And when all the people hear his voice, every man shall in their own land leave the battle they have one against another.

2Es 13:34  And an innumerable multitude shall be gathered together, as thou sawest them, willing to come, and to overcome him by fighting.

2Es 13:35  But he shall stand upon the top of the mount Sion.

2Es 13:36  And Sion shall come, and shall be shewed to all men, being prepared and builded, like as thou sawest the hill graven without hands.

2Es 13:37  And this my Son shall rebuke the wicked inventions of those nations, which for their wicked life are fallen into the tempest;

2Es 13:38  And shall lay before them their evil thoughts, and the torments wherewith they shall begin to be tormented, which are like unto a flame: and he shall destroy them without labour by the law which is like unto me.

Ezra sees that the people who love Yahweh will gather to Jesus the Messiah and that Jesus will rebuke the wicked. Jesus will gather another group of people  to himself in Israel. We know from the books of Matthew and Deuteronomy that those people will be gathered from all four corners of heaven and earth. 

2Es 13:39  And whereas thou sawest that he gathered another peaceable multitude unto him;

2Es 13:40  Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Osea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land.

This is the time that the northern kingdom went into captivity in Assyria. They went into captivity as prisoners but then left on their own accord. Josephus adds some details. 

Antiquities of the Jews 9:14:1

How Shalmaneser Took Samaria by Force, and How He Transplanted the Ten Tribes into Media, and Brought the Nation of the Cutheans into Their Country [in Their Room]

1. (277) When Shalmaneser, the king of Assyria, had it told him, that [Hoshea] the king of Israel had sent privately to So, the king of Egypt, desiring his assistance against him, he was very angry, and made an expedition against Samaria, in the seventh year of the reign of Hoshea; (278) but when he was not admitted [into the city] by the king, he besieged Samaria three years, and took it by force in the ninth year of the reign of Hoshea, and in the seventh year of Hezekiah, king of Jerusalem, and quite demolished the government of the Israelites, and transplanted all the people into Media and Persia, among whom he took king Hoshea alive; (279) and when he had removed these people out of this their land, he transplanted other nations out of Cuthah, a place so called (for there is [still] a river of that name in Persia), into Samaria, and into the country of the Israelites. (280) So the ten tribes of the Israelites were removed out of Judea, nine hundred and forty-seven years after their forefathers were come out of the land of Egypt, and possessed themselves of this country, but eight hundred years after Joshua had been their leader, and, as I have already observed, two hundred and forty years, seven months, and seven days, after they had revolted from Rehoboam, the grandson of David, and had given the kingdom to Jeroboam. (281) And such a conclusion overtook the Israelites, when they had transgressed the laws, and would not hearken to the prophets, who foretold that this calamity would come upon them, if they would not leave off their evil doings. (282) What gave birth to these evil doings, was that sedition which they raised against Rehoboam, the grandson of David, when they set up Jeroboam, his servant, to be their king, who, by sinning against God, and bringing them to imitate his bad example, made God to be their enemy, while Jeroboam underwent that punishment which he justly deserved. 

 Flavius Josephus and William Whiston, The Works of Josephus: Complete and Unabridged (Peabody: Hendrickson, 1987), 264–265.

This is interesting. Shalmaneser transplanted the people from the northern kingdom in Media, Persia, and then took people from Cuthah and moved them into Samaria. Some of the Israelite people mixed with the Cuthahites creating a half breed of partly Hebraic and partly non-Hebraic people in the land. What precipitated this is the splitting of the kingdom and making Jeroboam king. Rehoboam was getting bad advice from his young friends and young advisors. He wanted to tax the citizens more and make them work harder than Solomon his father did. People always revolt when they are over taxed and can see that the elites are living lavish lives while the regular people sweat for the rich. If we think about the logic here, it is one thing to build a Temple for Yahweh and a palace for the king, but the constant building and development from back breaking sweat of the people goes too far. The people escaped Egypt with Yahweh’s help after being made into slaves there. No one wants to be enslaved in their own country.

2Ki 17:1  In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.

2Ki 17:2  And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him.

2Ki 17:3  Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.

Leaders of nations can become vassals for other nations. In this case Hoshea became a vassal servant for Shalmaneser.

2Ki 17:4  And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.

2Ki 17:5  Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.

2Ki 17:6  In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.

Why did the people suffer? If it was just a bad king then the bad king would bear his own sins, but the people were sinning all on their own. Just as in the time of the Judges, the pushing and pulling of evil in the land kept the majority swaying between good and evil. 

2Ki 17:7  For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,

2Ki 17:8  And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.

2Ki 17:9  And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.

2Ki 17:10  And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:

2Ki 17:11  And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger:

2Ki 17:12  For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.

2Ki 17:13  Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.

2Ki 17:14  Notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in the LORD their God.

2Ki 17:15  And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them.

2Ki 17:16  And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.

2Ki 17:17  And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

2Ki 17:18  Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.

There was none left but the tribe of Judah. This is why everyone wants to call themselves a “Jew”. People try to align themselves with the less sinful region rather than the more sinful region. But Judah is not innocent. 

2Ki 17:19  Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.

2Ki 17:20  And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.

2Ki 17:21  For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.

2Ki 17:22  For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;

2Ki 17:23  Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.

Israel influenced Judah. The northern kingdom’s sins influenced the southern kingdom to sin. Both kingdoms ended up in captivity, because both kingdoms followed false heathen gods and practiced evil rituals. 

2Es 13:40  Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Osea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land.

2Es 13:41  But they took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, where never mankind dwelt,

2Es 13:42  That they might there keep their statutes, which they never kept in their own land.

When we read this we get the impression that the word they means “everyone in Israel”. This is not the case. Many in Israel wanted to continue to practice their spiritualism. The majority of people pushed the country into captivity because of their evil practices. Therefore understand that they is less than fifty percent of the population. The they could be less than thirty percent of the population because it had to be people who could handle the journey. Not the old and feeble but the young and strong. The people who took this journey wanted to worship Yahweh or at the very least they didn’t want to worship idols. They did not want to be part of the sinners. Yahweh then had to make a way for them to leave. 

2Es 13:43  And they entered into Euphrates by the narrow places of the river.

2Es 13:44  For the most High then shewed signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over.

2Es 13:45  For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth.

It took the people a year and a half to get to Arsareth. It took Columbus between 60 and 70 days to reach the Americas from Spain. Now think about this. Some of the Israelite tribes were great seafarers such as Dan and Zebulun. Solomon created a navy. Jonah tried to head to Spain instead of Ninevah on a boat. Joseph, Mary, and Jesus, took a boat to Alexandria to escape Herod. If the Israelites knew that their relatives were in different parts of the world as the tribe of Dan was at this time, wouldn’t it be reasonable to think that the “they” who wanted to leave Assyria knew who to hook up with to make a journey to another continent? Wouldn’t the merchant tribe of Dan be a good resource for information as to what lands were a good place to travel to. Even if the Israelite tribes split up with some traveling over land bridges into North America, or some by boat into the Caribbean Islands and South and Central America, it would explain who those natives were. Either route would take a long time to complete, so a year and a half is not out of the question. 

We think it was a hard journey for Columbus or the pilgrims on the Mayflower, but the Vikings were exploring the Americas years before Columbus did. There are some scholars who suggest that in the days of Jared, when the sons of Seth were on the mountains and the sons of Cain were in the valleys trying to lure the sons of Seth down with various sins, that the people who left the mountain made their way by boat (before the flood of Noah) to the Americas. Certainly that could be a stretch but by the time period of the exile of the ten tribes people were sailing all over. This is why Moses prophesied that they would be sent out in ships and be sold because the technology to sail on ships from port to port was available. It took the Mayflower pilgrims 66 days to reach Cape Cod. Wouldn’t it be possible for other people to make the journey too if they traveled in the summer? Maybe they took a route from the Canary Islands to the Azores or from the Canary Islands to Cape Verde and then to South America. Or maybe they went to the British Isles and headed to North America or Canada. 

We have had our history stolen from us because we have been led to believe that people in the ancient times thought the world was flat. No one thought the world was flat. In fact the disinformation was drilled into us to make us think that no Israelites migrated from the region of Israel and the middle east. The Egyptians were building ships six thousand years ago. Where were they going?

The book Lost Tribes and Promised Lands by Ronald Sanders gives us a history of America’s racism by explaining the native tribes, the Spanish inquisition, and the slave trades. What we see is people speaking Hebrew in south America’s jungles but also in what is now known as upstate New York. People had fled their homelands for centuries to escape religious persecutions. The ten tribes were no longer connected by tribe but by their journey, where and when it took place, and where the people all stayed to settle. The forming of new tribes was now due to people being settlers not being connected to Israel or Jacob.

When Yahweh brought the Israelites out of Egypt he protected them and arranged the elements, the water and the wind, to make their way easy. Why wouldn’t Yahweh do it again for the people who wanted to worship him but were forced into exile by their corrupt leaders and fellow citizens? What if Yahweh has been hiding some of the heirs of Jacob in plain site? Doesn’t Yahweh know how to save the righteous from out of the unrighteous? Noah built a boat. When Sodom was hit with brimstone Lot and his daughters were spared. When Daniel was thrown into the lions den he was saved. Ananias, Sedrach; and to Misael were thrown in the burning fiery furnace yet they walked out unharmed. When David was surrounded by enemies he was delivered. Is it possible that Yahweh protected the journey of the people from the ten tribes?

2Es 13:46  Then dwelt they there until the latter time; and now when they shall begin to come,

2Es 13:47  The Highest shall stay the springs of the stream again, that they may go through: therefore sawest thou the multitude with peace.

The ten tribes are dwelling there, in Arsereth, until the latter time. They will come out of Arsereth when Jesus the Messiah establishes his millennial kingdom on the earth. 

2Es 13:48  But those that be left behind of thy people are they that are found within my borders.

2Es 13:49  Now when he destroyeth the multitude of the nations that are gathered together, he shall defend his people that remain.

2Es 13:50  And then shall he shew them great wonders.

2Es 13:51  Then said I, O Lord that bearest rule, shew me this: Wherefore have I seen the man coming up from the midst of the sea?

2Es 13:52  And he said unto me, Like as thou canst neither seek out nor know the things that are in the deep of the sea: even so can no man upon earth see my Son, or those that be with him, but in the day time.

2Es 13:53  This is the interpretation of the dream which thou sawest, and whereby thou only art here lightened.

2Es 13:54  For thou hast forsaken thine own way, and applied thy diligence unto my law, and sought it.

2Es 13:55  Thy life hast thou ordered in wisdom, and hast called understanding thy mother.

2Es 13:56  And therefore have I shewed thee the treasures of the Highest: after other three days I will speak other things unto thee, and declare unto thee mighty and wondrous things.

We see that the true Israelites are all over the world until the end of the tribulation and Yahweh brings them out of heaven and earth. Josephus tells us something interesting regarding Ezra. Xerxes wrote an epistle or letter for Ezra to take to the king of Syria for Ezra so that he would not be harmed for traveling and which also allowed Ezra to make sacrifices in Israel for Xerxes. 

Josephus 11:5:2 2. (131) When Esdras had received this epistle, he was very joyful, and began to worship God, and confessed that he had been the cause of the king’s great favor to him, and that for the same reason he gave all the thanks to God. So he read the epistle at Babylon to those Jews that were there; but he kept the epistle itself, (132) and sent a copy of it to all those of his own nation that were in Media; and when these Jews had understood what piety the king had towards God, and what kindness he had for Esdras, they were all greatly pleased; nay, many of them took their effects with them, (133) and came to Babylon, as very desirous of going down to Jerusalem; but then the entire body of the people of Israel remained in that country; wherefore there are but two tribes in Asia and Europe subject to the Romans, while the ten tribes are beyond Euphrates till now, and are an immense multitude, and not to be estimated by numbers. 

 Flavius Josephus and William Whiston, The Works of Josephus: Complete and Unabridged (Peabody: Hendrickson, 1987), 294.

Josephus notes tribes in Media, then two tribes in Asia and Europe, and ten tribes beyond the Euphrates. Josephus tells us that the tribes had spread out. We also know that in Peter’s time there was a large group of Israelites still in Babylon. Paul was from the Island of Tarsus. Luke was from Greece.

Now let’s think about this. Who would have stayed in the land of Israel after the Israelites were driven out? Whoever conquered it. Why then is it so important for people to claim Israel as their land who may not have actually originated from Israel? Especially since the other people groups brought idolatry and evil rituals to Israel. Isn’t it because the angels who sinned and left their first estate came down to Mount Hermon? Are they hoping for a return? What could these people hope to gain from calling themselves Jews when they are not? How about the sympathy of the world. How about donations and money for the forlorn Jews. Yet all the while that they are on the sympathy tour they are still sacrificing to Moloch, trafficking people, allowing booths for the male and female prostitutes, and all without a national passover or a national temple. So, while there are people in Israel who are doing their best to worship Yahweh and who believe that they are Jews, but are not accepting Jesus as their Lord, we want to guard against the cut and dry, black and white idea that all people in Israel are not original Israelites. We simply do not know. 

The conclusion of the matter is that the people of the first century and prior understood that the the tribes were not glued to the middle east and Israel. They understood that the people traveled and moved around just like people do today. Yet there are elite world dominators who pretend to be Jews to gain the world’s sympathies, and confidence, that they can be leaders because of their connection to Yahweh. However the opposite is true. While the worshippers of Satanas claim they are Jews but are not, the people of the world drift back and forth between evil and good. There is more depth here than we have recognized, and it is time for us to wake up and see Satanas’ evil plan.

The Cursed; Slave Trade; Nations in the Sheepfold; Nullified Curses

There are some curses that last for a specific time period and some curses that have been nulled. The curse of the Jews who chose curses over the blessings, as per Moses, is still in effect for the Jews. Familial generational curses that were put upon children due to the sins of their parents have been nullified. It would seem that people who preach about generational curses may not understand which curses are still in effect and which are not. If we are curious as to who the “true Jews” are today we may want to look at Moses’ words. Moses gave us a timeline as to how long these curses would last upon the people. They will last into the ages, until Yahweh brings them back to Israel from heaven and earth. As far as I know, no one has come out of heaven to occupy Israel, therefore we are speaking about a future time after the Day of the Lord. This curse is one that the people put upon themselves by rejecting Yahweh Elohim and his laws. However Jesus the Messiah redeemed all of us from the curse of the law. 

Look around at the different people in our nations. Some people live rich luxurious lives, most people live average lives, while some others live seemingly poor oppressed lives. Why? In every people group, in every tribe, there are poor and needy people. There are people who cannot seem to pick themselves up and work hard enough to get themselves out of poverty. There are white people, black people, yellow people, brown people, pink people, blue people, or bicolored people in this state. These impoverished people match Moses’ description of who the true heirs of Jacob are. While some groups claim that they are Jews because of their skin color, genetic lines have been mixed so often over the generations that no one knows what “original” color they derive from their ancestry six thousand years ago. Basically, those who were from Japheth lived in the northern hemisphere, Shem in the middle hemisphere, and Ham in the southern hemisphere. Depending on where people lived, migrated, and settled depends on who the people available for marriage were. 

Ezekiel tells us that the responsibility of sins is now on the individual. No child is held responsible for their fathers sins. This nullification was in preparation for the Messiah. The spiritual payment for parental sins is no longer something that the children pay for. Everyone pays for their own sins unless Jesus paid for them.

Eze 18:1  And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

Eze 18:2  Son of man, what mean ye by this parable among the children of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten unripe grapes, and the children's teeth have been set on edge?

Eze 18:3  As I live, saith the Lord, surely this parable shall no more be spoken in Israel.

Eze 18:4  For all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son, they are mine: the soul that sins, it shall die.

Ezekiel is speaking of eternal life or eternal death.

Eze 18:19  But ye will say, Why has not the son borne the iniquity of the father? Because the son has wrought judgment and mercy, has kept all my statues, and done them, he shall surely live.

Eze 18:20  But the soul that sins shall die: and the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, nor shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the iniquity of the transgressor shall be upon him.

This is the nullified curse. We do not have to go backward into our family line to figure out why we are struggling. We are struggling because we are not living rightly before Yahweh, or Satanas has tricked us into believing that we are cursed and that this is our lot in life so that we live out the lie. Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law. The curse of the law is that not many people followed the law correctly from the beginning of entering the Promised Land. People today cannot follow the law because there is no temple and without a temple there is no redemption for sin. 

Gal 3:10  For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

Gal 3:11  But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

Gal 3:12  And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

Gal 3:13  Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Gal 3:14  That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

What did Moses say about blessing and cursing? If we look at his words closely we will be able to identify the Jews in every nation and every society. 

Deu 28:15 (Brenton) But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe all his commandments, as many as I charge thee this day, then all these curses shall come on thee, and overtake thee.

Deu 28:16  Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.

Deu 28:17  Cursed shall be thy barns and thy stores.

Deu 28:18  Cursed shall be the offspring of thy body, and the fruits of thy land, the herds of thine oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep.

Deu 28:19  Cursed shalt thou be in thy coming in, and cursed shalt thou be in thy going out.

Deu 28:20  The Lord send upon thee want, and famine, and consumption of all things on which thou shalt put thy hand, until he shall have utterly destroyed thee, and until he shall have consumed thee quickly because of thine evil devices, because thou hast forsaken me.

Deu 28:21  The Lord cause the pestilence to cleave to thee, until he shall have consumed thee off the land into which thou goest to inherit it.

The Promised Land would become a harsh place to live if they reject Yahweh. This is why people were migrating early on. Naomi’s family migrated to escape famine. They were not the only ones. The land has been an extremely hard place to grow food until recently when rich elites sunk a lot of money into the nation. But we should notice that it is Yahweh causing the problems for these people. 

Deu 28:22  The Lord smite thee with distress, and fever, and cold, and inflammation, and blighting, and paleness, and they shall pursue thee until they have destroyed thee.

Distress is anxiety. We know what a fever is, but the word cold is actually “shivering”. What happens when we get a high fever? We shiver. We all have inflammation, and we know that certain foods or products will increase our inflammation, such as using a lotion that gives a rash or eating a fruit that causes hives. Wind-blown is “wind pollution” and paleness is actually referring to the word “ocher”. Ocher is an amber/yellow color. We are talking about dust storms or the pollution from burning fires, to factory pollution and the burning off of chemicals in train derailments. Air pollution can make us sick. What else is airborne? Germs/viruses. People turn yellow from hepatitis, auto immune disorders, jaundice, and other liver diseases. These sicknesses will destroy or kill people. 

Let’s ask a rational question. Is there any sickness or disease that we can “cure” with an injection if the ailment comes from Yahweh? Can we create a vaccine against Yahweh’s curses?

Deu 28:23  And thou shalt have over thine head a sky of brass, and the earth under thee shall be iron.

Deu 28:24  The Lord thy God make the rain of thy land dust; and dust shall come down from heaven, until it shall have destroyed thee, and until it shall have quickly consumed thee.

Deu 28:25  The Lord give thee up for slaughter before thine enemies: thou shalt go out against them one way, and flee from their face seven ways; and thou shalt be a dispersion in all the kingdoms of the earth.

Given up for slaughter by Yahweh. If we remember all the years of captivity that the people of Israel endured, there were many times when under captivity they tried to rebel against the domineering nation but could not overcome them.

Deb 28:26  And your dead men shall be food to the birds of the sky, and to the beasts of the earth; and there shall be none to scare them away.

Deu 28:27  The Lord smite thee with the botch of Egypt in the seat, and with a malignant scab, and itch, so that thou canst not be healed.

Deu 28:28  The Lord smite thee with insanity, and blindness, and astonishment of mind.

The botch of Egypt in the seat is another way of saying “anal issues, like sores and hemorrhoids”. Malignant scab is referring to “scabies”. Itch is the word “knife meaning painful itch, or stabbing pain”. Because it comes from Yahweh they are not able to heal. Insanity is actually the word παραπληξία meaning “paraplegia, or lower body paralysis”. This sounds like spina bifida which at that time would have been undetectable until it caused a spinal problem after birth. Bewilderment of intellect means “people cannot think clearly”. We see more and more mental illness in society. 

Deu 28:29  And thou shalt grope at mid-day, as a blind man would grope in the darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways; and then thou shalt be unjustly treated, and plundered continually, and there shall be no helper.

Many people who are impoverished are unjustly treated. It is almost like they are cursed. 

Deu 28:30  thou shalt take a wife, and another man shall have her; thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell in it; thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes of it.

Deu 28:31  Thy calf shall be slain before thee, and thou shalt not eat of it; thine ass shall be violently taken away from thee, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given to thine enemies, and thou shalt have no helper.

What they have worked for will be taken from them before they can use it.

Deu 28:32  Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given to another nation, and thine eyes wasting away shall look for them: thine hand shall have no strength.

Children will be trafficked and no one will be able to find them. Samuel warned of this when the people were calling for a king. 

Deu 28:33  A nation which thou knowest not shall eat the produce of thy land, and all thy labours; and thou shalt be injured and crushed always.

Deu 28:34  And thou shalt be distracted, because of the sights of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

Deu 28:35  The Lord smite thee with an evil sore, on the knees and the legs, so that thou shalt not be able to be healed from the sole of thy foot to the crown of thy head.

Venous skin ulcers is what will not be healed like eczema or psoriasis. Leprosy is also a skin aliment.  

Deu 28:36  The Lord carry away thee and thy princes, whom thou shalt set over thee, to a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers know; and thou shalt there serve other gods, wood and stone.

This happened when the southern kingdom went into captivity, Daniel was among them.

Deu 28:37  An thou shalt be there for a wonder, and a parable, and a tale, among all the nations, to which the Lord thy God shall carry thee away.

The Heirs of Jacob have become an enigma, or a dark saying, or a riddle. They are a juxtaposition or a comparison and a short story in every nation. Even in every nation that they migrate to. Why? Because wherever they go it seems like this curse follows them. Everyone in the other nations will tell their children about the riddle of the Jews, who were led out of Egypt by their God, but who rejected their God and are now cursed. We have an entire book written about their problem. 

People will know who the Jews are by the way they look, by the sicknesses they have, and by their poverty. 

Deu 28:38  Thou shalt carry forth much seed into the field, and thou shalt bring in little, because the locust shall devour it.

Deu 28:39  Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and dress it, and shalt not drink the wine, neither shalt thou delight thyself with it, because the worm shall devour it.

Deu 28:40  Thou shalt have olive trees in all thy borders, and thou shalt not anoint thee with oil, because thine olive shall utterly cast its fruit.

No matter how much they sow they will not reap. 

Deu 28:41  Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, and they shall not be thine, for they shall depart into captivity.

This has been the case with every nation that took rulership over Israel. Children were bought and sold as commodities. It happens today as well.

Deu 28:42  All thy trees and the fruits of thy land shall the blight consume.

Deu 28:43  The stranger that is within thee shall get up very high, and thou shalt come down very low.

Strangers in the land prosper, but the Hebrews don’t. When Israel was resettled in 1948 by people who said that they were Jews but were not, they brought in various farming technologies so that the land would grow food. The rich people saying they are Jews but are not, invested a lot of money into the country to make it function. Before this time at the turn of the 1900’s, Israel was a wasteland and the Jewish people had the reputation that they were not hard workers, they were not able to farm and grow food. They would then leave the region because it was too hard to produce food. Had it not been for the rich benefactors, who say they are Jews but are not, Israel would still be a deserted wasteland. 

Deu 28:44  He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.

The Hebrews will allow others to monetarily dominate them. This is even in effect today, the rich elite who say that they are Jews but are not, are the overlords in Israel.

Deu 28:45  And all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and shall overtake thee, until he shall have consumed thee, and until he shall have destroyed thee; because thou didst not hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commands, and his ordinances which he has commanded thee.

Deu 28:46  And these things shall be signs in thee, and wonders among thy seed for ever;

Deu 28:47  because thou didst not serve the Lord thy God with gladness and a good heart, because of the abundance of all things.

These things are going to continue among their future generations because these original Israelites in the Promised Land rejected Yahweh Elohim. This is a curse that is not lifted. The responsibility of bearing the new sins of their parents is nullified but this sin or rejecting Yahweh Elohim is not lifted. 

There are many countries dealing with migrants flooding their borders. If we look at the migratory pattern of the Israelites we will notice that there are people who have been poor and destitute in those countries moving to other countries. On a short note, at the time of the Spanish inquisition and just before, in the years of the explorers, we see people in South America living in tribes who spoke Hebrew. As the explorers wondered about this, people who did speak Hebrew found out that these tribes migrated there many years before from Israel. The poorest people living in those nations are trying to find a new place to live. The abject poverty of the Jews will be for a mark and a marvel for their seed into the ages. 

Deu 28:48  And thou shalt serve thine enemies, which the Lord will send forth against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in the want of all things; and thou shalt wear upon thy neck a yoke of iron until he shall have destroyed thee.

Deu 28:49  The Lord shall bring upon thee a nation from the extremity of the earth, like the swift flying of an eagle, a nation whose voice thou shalt not understand;

Deu 28:50  a nation bold in countenance, which shall not respect the person of the aged and shall not pity the young.

Deu 28:51  And it shall eat up the young of thy cattle, and the fruits of thy land, so as not to leave to thee corn, wine, oil, the herds of thine oxen, and the flocks of thy sheep, until it shall have destroyed thee;

Deu 28:52  and have utterly crushed thee in thy cities, until the high and strong walls be destroyed, in which thou trustest, in all thy land; and it shall afflict thee in thy cities, which he has given to thee.

The heirs of Jacob will serve their enemies and Yahweh will bring an enemy that will wipe out their nation. Didn’t the Ottoman empire overtake the entire region?

Deu 28:53  And thou shalt eat the fruit of thy body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, all that he has given thee, in thy straitness and thy affliction, with which thine enemy shall afflict thee.

The Jews will turn to cannibalism. 

Deu 28:54  He that is tender and very delicate within thee shall look with an evil eye upon his brother, and the wife in his bosom, and the children that are left, which may have been left to him;

Deu 28:55  so as not to give to one of them of the flesh of his children, whom he shall eat, because of his having nothing left him in thy straitness, and in thy affliction, with which thine enemies shall afflict thee in all thy cities.

The soft and delicate men will curse or give the evil eye to their brother’s family because they want to eat their nieces and nephews. 

Deu 28:56  And she that is tender and delicate among you, whose foot has not assayed to go upon the earth for delicacy and tenderness, shall look with an evil eye on her husband in her bosom, and her son and her daughter,

Deu 28:57  and her offspring that comes out between her feet, and the child which she shall bear; for she shall eat them because of the want of all things, secretly in thy straitness, and in thy affliction, with which thine enemy shall afflict thee in thy cities.

The women who are soft and delicate will curse or give an evil eye to their husbands and eat their children.

Deu 28:58  If thou wilt not hearken to do all the words of this law, which have been written in this book, to fear this glorious and wonderful name, the Lord thy God;

Deu 28:59  then the Lord shall magnify thy plagues, and the plagues of thy seed, great and wonderful plagues, and evil and abiding diseases.

Deu 28:60  And he shall bring upon thee all the evil pain of Egypt, of which thou wast afraid, and they shall cleave to thee.

Deu 28:61  And the Lord shall bring upon thee every sickness, and every plague that is not written, and every one that is written in the book of this law, until he shall have destroyed thee.

Deu 28:62  And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of the sky in multitude; because thou didst not hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God.

Yahweh is warning them via Moses, but as we know, the majority of Israelites still did not adhere to the law. Yet Jesus redeems everyone from the curse of the law. 

Deu 28:63  And it shall come to pass that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you; and ye shall be quickly removed from the land, into which ye go to inherit it.

Deu 28:64  And the Lord thy God shall scatter thee among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other; and thou shalt there serve other gods, wood and stone, which thou hast not known, nor thy fathers.

They will be scattered from one end of the earth to the other. They truly didn’t rule in their own land very long. They were under foreign rule from the beginning upon entering the Promised Land. The Jews were scattered and would serve false gods in the countries they end up in. 

Deu 28:65  Moreover among those nations he will not give thee quiet, neither by any means shall the sole of thy foot have rest; and the Lord shall give thee there another and a misgiving heart, and failing eyes, and a wasting soul.

Deu 28:66  And thy life shall be in suspense before thine eyes; and thou shalt be afraid by day and by night, and thou shalt have no assurance of thy life.

Deu 28:67  In the morning thou shalt say, Would it were evening! and in the evening thou shalt say, Would it were morning! for the fear of thine heart with which thou shalt fear, and for the sights of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

No matter what nation they go into they will not have quiet or rest. They will have a heteros, “another of a different kind” of heart. They will have a despondent heart or spiritless heart, and their eyes will fail, or the eyes of their heart will fail. They will be hanging by a thread. 

Deu 28:68  And the Lord shall bring thee back to Egypt in ships, by the way of which I said, Thou shalt not see it again; and ye shall be sold there to your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and none shall buy you.

They will go back to Egypt on ships. Alexandria Egypt was a very active port and people being sold as commodities went out in ships to Egypt to be sold as slaves. During the ages through the time of the explorers, people were bought and sold, as well as kidnapped and sold all over Africa as slaves. When the African tribal leaders sold people into slavery they didn’t sell their own people they sold their slaves. This is what the slave trade was about. Tribal leaders sold their own slaves and made money. Who were the slaves? Moses just told us. If they did not follow Yahweh’s laws then they would be sent on ships and become slaves throughout the world. 

We see that some Israelites migrated before they were sold as slaves, but they did not prosper, but instead live in poverty anywhere they went. Those who stayed in Israel were bought and sold, put on ships and sold over and over again. The true Israelites are slaves. The true Israelites are poor. The true Israelites are impoverished in whatever country they live in. 

Look around. Who are the poor and impoverished peoples. They are in every country. Some may work very hard, manual laborers, while some do not work at all but live on government assistance. Either way, none of the true Israelites get ahead. This will last until Yahweh brings them out of the nations and out of heaven. However there is remedy for this curse. 

Deu 30:1  And it shall come to pass when all these things shall have come upon thee, the blessing and the curse, which I have set before thy face, and thou shalt call them to mind among all the nations, wherein the Lord shall have scattered thee,

Deu 30:2  and shalt return to the Lord thy God, and shalt hearken to his voice, according to all things which I charge thee this day, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul;

Deu 30:3  then the Lord shall heal thine iniquities, and shall pity thee, and shall again gather thee out from all the nations, among which the Lord has scattered thee.

Deu 30:4  If thy dispersion be from one end of heaven to the other, thence will the Lord thy God gather thee, and thence will the Lord thy God take thee.

Has Yahweh Elohim gathered anyone yet? No. Why? Because the Day of the Lord has not happened yet. Jesus is not ruling and reigning from Jerusalem. He will bring them back, not a charity, not a religious group. Seriously, if someone wants to send the Jews somewhere, send them to the Amazon Jungle until after the tribulation, otherwise we are just sending them to torture and death in Israel. We all know what it says in Revelation.

Mat 24:30  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Mat 24:31  And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

The angels bring the people back from one end of heaven to the other; not humans, not politicians, not wars. Angels bring the people back after the tribulation and after the Day of the Lord.

We also know that this has not taken place, even though many people want to cite 1948 as Israel regaining the nation, because the enemies of the Israelites have not been cursed yet.

Deu 30:5  And the Lord thy God shall bring thee in from thence into the land which thy fathers have inherited, and thou shalt inherit it; and he will do thee good, and multiply thee above thy fathers.

Deu 30:6  And the Lord shall purge thy heart, and the heart of thy seed, to love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

Deu 30:7  And the Lord thy God will put these curses upon thine enemies, and upon those that hate thee, who have persecuted thee.

Deu 30:8  And thou shalt return and hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and shall keep his commands, all that I charge thee this day.

Deu 30:9  And the Lord thy God shall bless thee in every work of thine hands, in the offspring of thy body, and in the offspring of thy cattle, and in the fruits of thy land, because the Lord thy God will again rejoice over thee for good, as he rejoiced over thy fathers:

Deu 30:10  if thou wilt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments, and his ordinances, and his judgments written in the book of this law, if thou turn to the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul.

There isn’t even a temple in Jerusalem, no one can be redeemed in Israel unless they receive Jesus as Lord and Messiah. Jesus redeems everyone from the curse of the law. The Jews cannot even attempt to cleanse themselves from their sins without the temple sacrifices. While on the outside it looks like in 1948 Israel became a nation, she did not become a nation unto herself, but instead is ruled by rich elites with a pushing and pulling from other nations. Wait, didn’t Moses tell us that the true Jews would always be impoverished? Didn’t Moses say that they would never prosper no matter what nation they were dispersed to? Didn’t Moses say that they would be sickly and fearful all the time? How can these rich elites ruling in Israel be true Israelites? They say they are Jews but they are not. 

Again if we see rich Jews, attempting to promote socialism/communism in the world today, we know that they are not truly heirs of Jacob. The only Jews who escape this curse of Moses are those who believe that Jesus is Yahweh and Messiah and that he rose up on the third day. This makes them people with Christ-In, they are no longer Jews. If one refuses Jesus, then the curses of Moses still apply. We don’t see the people of the WEF complaining that they are always taken advantage of. Nor do we see their personal assistants carrying “donuts” for them to sit on. Yet they have invitation only Shabbat services during the week of their meetings, which seems like it must be just for show. 

Jesus told the the churches that the people persecuting them say they are Jews but they are not. Why? Because the people persecuting the church had money and power. They were not sickly or oppressed. They were not victims being taken advantage of by others, they were actually the persecutors not the persecuted. What about the Pharisees? Were the Pharisees true Jews? No. They had money and power, and they were the dominators and intimidators in the societies. They were not suffering anal issues, or insanity issues. The Pharisees did not have anxiety and they were not turning yellow with liver disease. The people living under the Pharisaical rule were oppressed, sick, and needy. Jesus healed them. Jesus healed at least ten blind people. Those blind people were the true heirs of Jacob. Jesus healed lepers. Jesus healed the lame and halt. See the difference? 

Jesus came for the lost sheep of the house of Israel and to bring the nations into the sheepfold. We seem to have the impression that the nations were an afterthought. They are not. The Jews are spread out over the nations and after a few generations no one knows if they are heirs of Jacob or not. The nations are the heirs of Jacob as well as the non-heirs of Jacob. It is time for us to see the world clearly with the eyes of Yahweh so that we are not fooled by the rich elite who claim to be Jews but are not.
