Israel was in Type the Representative For All Nations of the World

Article #10 by Brad Baker

1 The word sanctify means to set apart as or declare holy; consecrate. 2 In order to understand why God sanctified all twelve tribes of Israel from all the other nations of the world we can see clearer if we look at why God sanctified the tribe of Levi from all of the twelve tribes of Israel. 3 Another way to look at it is through Israel being a representative for the rest of the world during the Age from Adam to the end of the Age in AD70. 4 In the world of politics a political party has representatives for the people who voted for their party that bring issues up to Congress to get things done. 5 God choose Israel to be a representative for the whole world so that salvation would come through Israel so that the rest of the world could see how that could apply to them in the realm of faith. 6 Israel had to go through an Age where God dealt with them through the Old Covenant with a promise of a New Covenant. 7 Through Israel that would also be a blessing to the whole world which brought an end to the sin and death Adam had passed on to mankind. 8 When the city of Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed in AD70, that marked the beginning of a new Age where Israel’s job of being a representative also ended through what Christ came to fulfill.

Deut. 28: 1 “And if you faithfully obey the voice of the Lord your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, the Lord your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth.

Isaiah 52:10 

The Lord has made bare His holy arm

In the eyes of all the nations;

And all the ends of the earth shall see

The salvation of our God.

9 The reason for salvation was because of the results of eating from the Tree of knowledge that brought a curse of Spiritual death to mankind which resulted in being separated from God and to have a Spiritual body for the hereafter. 10 The first thing Adam and Eve did after eating from the Tree of Knowledge was that they formed a new laws aside from what God had said and gave them when they discovered that they were naked and made fig leaves for clothing in exchange for being clothed with immortality. 11 They set another law into force that they had to be covered with fig leaves according to the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil. 12 Then they set another law that said that they had to hid from God and not fellowship with Him anymore.

13 After God after found them He pronounced a few curses onto them and set of new laws for Adam and Eve after they Spiritually died the day that they ate from the Tree of Knowledge. 14 That new law was that they could not stay in the Garden of Eden where the Tree of Life was least they live forever and to live under the curses that came with it. 15 So the part of the death was physical death was to return to the dust of the Earth and be in Hades until they would be resurrected with a Spiritual body, but a Spiritual death which was being separated from God and the Garden of Eden while they were alive. 16 The story of redemption is a story of mankind being similarly restored back to their original glory to being in fellowship with and being transformed back into God’s image and eating from the Tree of Life.

17 The beginning of that process was through types mainly through the laws that foreshadowed things to come in Christ. 18 They began to happen right after Moses gave the twelve tribe of Israel the Ten Commandments and when God sanctified Israel.

Exodus 19:14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.

19 God asked Israelites to sanctify themselves in two things: doing ceremonial laws because of sins or when they come to God and keeping God’s moral laws through the Ten Commandments. 20 God commanded Israelites to sanctify themselves by keeping His laws and the Sabbath as a sign that they have been sanctified by God.

21 Some people who have the Israel Only View will twist the word Earth and use it as a covenantal word used to describe the nation of Israel as the Earth, but the Garden of Eden and even the place Abraham lived was not in the same area as Israel’s land markings were before it became a nation.

22 As we can see here in Genesis 1: 10that is not what God was calling Israel as the Earth. 23 The dry land was called Earth and it represented the ground above sea level of the whole planet.

Genesis 1: 10And God called the dry land Earth

24 Adam called his wife Eve the the mother of all living. 25 She was figuratively the mother of all living like Adam represented to be the father of all mankind. 26 So the story of salvation or redemption covers all of mankind and not just the Nation of Israel from the curses of eating from the Tree of knowledge from Adam to the end of the Age of Corruption in AD70.

Genesis 3: 20And Adam called his wife’s name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

 27 They will use the word world the same way in order to develop a theory that says that the whole Bible was only referring to Israel because the New Covenant was only promised to Israel. 28 They fail to see that the end results was for the first century Church to become the Bride of Christ where the Bride becomes the Spiritual Mother of mankind and Jesus Christ becomes the Everlasting Father of all mankind. 29 From that marriage the New Covenant is passed down as an inheritance to their offspring which is all of mankind post AD70. 30 The change came in a twinkling of an eye in the Spiritual realm the moment that the Fall Feast of Tabernacles was fulfilled in AD70. 

31The New Covenant was God writing His laws in our hearts and minds according to the Tree of Life and the Fruits of the Spirit which reflect the image of Christ. 32 The whole Age of Corruption from Adam to the end of the Age in AD70 was a time where the laws from the Tree of Knowledge which included all of the Old Covenant laws and the Ten commandments, as well as laws that all other nations had unto themselves, including rules and regulations people had that were individually of themselves.

Two Covenants

Galatians 4: 21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a free-woman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the free-woman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. 

Revelation 21:2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

33 The Old Covenant was seen as to be under the law and according to the flesh, but the “New” Jerusalem above is free, which was the Bride of Christ is the mother of us all for the New Covenant, instead of Eve who was the mother of all living in the Old Age from creation to AD70. 34 We can see through the imagery in the Covenant God made with Abraham that God would multiply his descendants as the stars of the heaven. 35 This speaks of a Spiritual meaning as in all other nations aside from as the sand which speaks of natural Israel’s twelve tribes according to the flesh. 36 The multiplying of Abraham’s descendants as the stars of the heaven could only be done through Christ’s sacrifice on the cross and was done because Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son Isaac. 37 But God stopped him from doing that and provided a lamb as a representative of His only Son “Jesus Christ” in Abraham’s son’s place according to the story in Genesis 22.

Genesis 22:15 Then the Angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, 16 and said: “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son 17 blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18 In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”

Universal World-wide Resurrection from the First Death in Hades

38 All of mankind were considered as dead in Adam because of eating from the Tree of Knowledge. 39 The Spiritual part of this death was a death of being separated from God and being made in His image which lead to being gods like God but with laws that were according to themselves. 40 In this death inherited from Adam mankind made their own judgments and laws according to the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil which was aside from God’s image or character of love which are the Fruits of the Spirit from the imagery in the Tree of Life. 41 Mankind became like God in a way that they could have laws unto themselves and judge good and evil according to the thoughts in their own minds. 42 While under the results from eating from the Tree of Knowledge they were not able to have the fruits that came from the Tree of Life so in figurative language they were Spiritually dead. 43 Spiritual life only comes from the Tree of Life.

Acts 24: 15 I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust.

1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.

44 People in the past have been lead to believe in a literal physical resurrection of human bodies that will be in a literal physical heaven or a hell in the afterlife. 45 This is not the reality for either of those things because heaven and hell are Spiritual realities not only in the hereafter but while we are alive on Earth. 46 We all go through the process of the refining fire and either remain in the fire or enter into a heavenly rest in Christ after being refined by the fire. 

47 What happens is the Spirit goes back to God after physical death and people either live forever after their life on Earth and going through the refining fire in Heaven with a Spiritual body. 48 Or their conscience will be tormented in the Lake of Fire and eventually be burn up to ashes both conscience and Spiritual body figuratively speaking if no good thing is found in them like faith, hope and love. 49 Just because the unjust were resurrected and made alive by Christ does not mean they will Spiritual dwell in the Heavenly realm as Universalist believe. 50 God is a consuming fire that consumes and only those who believe in Him can endure it like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego did in the burning fiery furnace in Daniel 3.

51 We all go through the process of the refining fire which comes from being in the presence of God the unjust can not endure it because they have no faith, hope or love in God but are of the Spirit of Antichrist instead.

52 Everyone was made alive by Christ after the Temple no longer stood and were resurrected to life with Spiritual bodies in AD70, both the just and the unjust but both had a different results.

Revelation 19:20 Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.

1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterward the spiritual.47 The first man was of the earth, made of dust; the second Man is the Lord from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; and as is the heavenly Man, so also are those who are heavenly.

John 3: 12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Proselytes

53 While Israel was being a representative after God sanctified Israel from the rest of the nations on Earth, God had an open door for anyone who wanted to join in with Israel and become part of their blessings during the Feast of Tabernacles. 54 They were called Proselytes or what had become known in early Christianity as converts. 55 God’s redemptive plan was shown through the Feasts of the Lord and Holy Convocation Days that were within the Feast as a way to reveal His love for the whole world which He sent His Son to die for as His Passover which John the baptized proclaim:


John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

Zechariah 14: 16And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 17And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there will be no rain. 18If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. 19This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.

In Judaism

56 There were two kinds of proselytes in Rabbinic Judaism: (righteous proselytes, proselytes of righteousness, religious proselyte, devout proselyte) and (resident proselyte, proselytes of the gate, limited proselyte, half-proselyte).

57 A “righteous proselyte” was a gentile who has converted to Judaism, was bound to all the doctrines and precepts of the Jewish religion, and was considered a full member of the Jewish people. 23 The proselyte was circumcised as an adult, if male, and immerses in a mikvah which was a bath used for the purpose of ritual immersion in Judaism to achieve ritual purity to formally effect the conversion.

58 A “gate proselyte” was a resident alien who lived in the Land of Israel and followed some of the Jewish customs. 25 They were not required to be circumcised nor to comply with the whole of the Torah. 26 They were bound only to conform to the Seven Laws of Noah (do not worship idols, do not blaspheme God’s name, do not murder, do not commit fornication (immoral sexual acts), do not steal, do not tear the limb from a living animal, and do not fail to establish rule of law) to be assured of a place in the world to come. 

In early Christianity

59 The “religious proselytes” spoken of in Early Christian writings were likely righteous proselytes rather than gate proselytes. 60 There was some debate however as to whether proselytes known as God-fearers and/or Worshippers, who were baptized but not circumcised, fall into the righteous or gate category. 61 The New Testament uses the word four times, exclusively referring to converts to Judaism, and never referring to conversion to Christianity.

62 Here are a few examples from scriptures of where proselytes who were born 500 years before the Old Covenant of laws were given through Moses that God had with Abraham which was a Covenant because of faith “not law” and were circumcised according to the requirements of that Covenant. 63 What the laws were added through Moses and the terms used for that is Old Covenant or Mosaic Covenant.

Genesis 17:11and you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskins, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between Me and you. 12He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised, every male child in your generations, he who is born in your house or bought with money from any foreigner who is not your descendant. 13He who is born in your house and he who is bought with your money must be circumcised, and My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

Genesis 17: 26 That very same day Abraham was circumcised, and his son Ishmael; 27and all the men of his house, born in the house or bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with his.

Covenant of Faith vs. Covenant of Law

64 The New Covenant law is the Law of Christ, which includes the commands of his Apostles. 65 The New Covenant is the spiritual fulfillment of the Abrahamic covenant which was an Everlasting Covenant of Faith. Faith is required in order to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. 

66 The only law in the New Covenant is the law of love, based on Jesus’ statement to His disciples, “A new command I give you: Love one another. 67 As I have loved you, so you must love one another”(John 13:34). 

68 When people hold to only the Ten Commandments without having the Fruits of the Spirit they become nothing more than the Mark of the Beast. 69 The Fruits of the Spirit define what is love. 70 You can keep all of the Ten Commandments and still not have the Fruits of the Spirit but if you have the Fruits of the Spirit you will most likely be keeping the Ten Commandments. 71 The Sabbath was imagery for resting in Christ. 72 The Sabbath was a sign or seal so they they would know that God set them apart or sanctified them which was figurative for you shall know them by their Fruits.

Exodus 31: 13 “Speak also to the children of Israel, saying: ‘Surely My Sabbaths you shall keep, for it is a sign between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may know that I am the Lord who sanctifies you. 

73 Promises to Abram

Genesis 12:1

 Now the Lord had said to Abram:

“Get out of your country,

From your family

And from your father’s house,

To a land that I will show you.

2 

I will make you a great nation;

I will bless you

And make your name great;

And you shall be a blessing.

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.”

74 Through Moses God added the laws because of sin, and they also served as a way to show mankind God’s redemptive plan through faith in the shedding of blood through a lamb which represented God’s Son who would eventually be sacrificed just once and that would end all sacrifices after Jesus was crucified. 75 So Spiritual life did have its beginning as a type with Moses with forgiveness of sins but the sacrifices were substitutes until Jesus Christ came which was the antitype. 

76 Before that because of Abraham being obedient to God and was willing to sacrifice his son Issac, though God stopped him from doing that. 77 God provided Abraham with a substitute lamb was a representative for the sacrifice instead of Issac. 78 This was all of a pattern set for God’s Son to be a sacrifice because of Abraham’s faith and willingness to sacrifice his son Issac. 79 So then lambs were used and carried out through the Mosaic Covenant until the end of the Age, though Jesus Christ had officially ended all sacrifices with the shedding of His own blood. 80 There was a short period of time from the Cross to AD70 that was of transition into the new while the old was vanishing away where sacrifices were still being made by the rebellious Jewish Priesthood, but God did not approve of them for rejecting His Son. 81 In the book of Josephus a Jewish historian tells some of the events that happened what God did when the Jews tried doing animal sacrifices just before the Temple was destroyed that should have convinced them they were no longer required.

Death in Adam, Life in Christ

Romans 5:13 For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come. 15But the free gift is not like the offence. For if by the one man’s offence many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

82 I have come to a conclusion that God used Israel as a representative for the whole world because rest of the world was not in tune to the true God. 83 At the time Moses was in tune with God but Moses could only receive the types and foreshadows that came from the Tree of Knowledge. 84 So God used that way to relate to mankind because the Tree of Life was not available to mankind. 85 While the world had gods and beliefs that were there of their own and many of them may have had similarities to the Judaea and Christian faith but none of them were in tune with God to the degree of those like the Biblical writers were. 86 Only a very few like Adam, Abraham, Moses and all the Prophets were in tune with God. 87  God knew that they would only understand a bit of His ways through imagery, figurative types and shadows especially through the Feasts of the Lord and the Holy Convocation Days within the Feasts. 88 The time of the old Age of Corruption from Adam to Christ was not the real substances but represented the Spiritual realities of truth so God used Israel to get what He wanted accomplished so that all of mankind would be blessed.



 89 In the New Heaven and Earth which began in AD70 with All Things Made New for the New Glorious Creation we all started out in life being alive and one with Christ as our Everlasting Father. 90 But as we grow up we become like an Us and Them instead of being one in Christ and many decide to be of the Spirit of Antichrist. 91 The parable of the Prodigal Son is a good example of the life we can see today in the New Heaven and Earth as it also applied to ancient times between Israel and the ten lost tribes.

92 All people world wide since AD70 up to today either are alive because of their faith and believing in Jesus Christ while eating from the Tree of Life or they are in Outer Darkness and are Spiritually dead like the Prodigal Son was while he was physically alive.

93 The New Covenant has been in effect for us today because we have inherited it through the redeemed of Israel that became the Bride of Christ and everyone today is an Offspring through the marriage of Christ and the first century Church which replaced Adam and Eve. 94 All of mankind are the beneficiaries of the New Covenant through the promise God made with Abraham that all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.. 

Galatians 3:27 For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if you areChrist’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

95 Gentile, person who is not Jewish. The word stems from the Hebrew term goy, which means a “nation,” and was applied both to the Hebrews and to any other nation. 96 The plural, goyim, especially with the definite article, ha-goyim, “the nations,” meant nations of the world that were not Hebrew.

97 Gentile (from Latin gentilis “of or belonging to the same people or nation”, from gēns “clan; tribe; people, family”) is a term that usually means “someone who is not a Jew”. … The word gentile is derived from Latin and not itself an original Hebrew or Greek word found in the Bible.

Cornelius

98 Cornelius (Greek: Κορνήλιος, romanized: Kornélios; Latin: Cornelius) was a Roman centurion who is considered by Christians to be the first Gentile to convert to the faith, as related in Acts of the Apostles.

99 We can see here that Gentiles were around long before the ten lost tribes of Israel so the word Gentiles does not apply to just the ten lost tribes as those who are of Israel Only view make it out to be.

Genesis 10:5From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.

Conclusion: 

100 If it was all about Israel as a nation that would be the only ones saved why did Christ go and preach to the Spirits in prison during those three days before He was resurrected dating way back to Noah’s flood which was long before Abraham started the nations of Israel and then resurrect them from their graves in Matthew 27:51-53. 101 I believe that some of those Spirits in prison could have become “I’m not saying they were but” some of the many who were resurrected along with the First Fruits of Israel that were the 144,000 that were sealed with the Holy Spirit just before the Great Tribulation began.

Matthew 27:51 Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, 52 and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; 53 and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine long-suffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.

102 Cornelius and his Household were the first of the Gentiles recorded that got saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit. This story alone debunks the Israel Only View right here:

Acts 10:1 There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment, 2 a devout man and one who feared God with all his household, who gave alms generously to the people, and prayed to God always.

Acts 10:28 Then he said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean. 

44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered, 47 “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days.


Acts 11:18 When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.” 19 Now those who were scattered after the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but the Jews only. 20 But some of them were men from Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus. 21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord. 22 Then news of these things came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch. 23 When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. 24 For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord. 28 Then he said to them, “You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

34 Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality. 35 But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him. 36 The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ—He is Lord of all.

44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word. 45 And those of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered, 47 “Can anyone forbid water, that these should not be baptized who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?” 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days.


Acts 11:18 When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.” 19 Now those who were scattered after the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but the Jews only. 20 But some of them were men from Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the Lord Jesus. 21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord. 22 Then news of these things came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch. 23 When he came and had seen the grace of God, he was glad, and encouraged them all that with purpose of heart they should continue with the Lord. 24 For he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord.

The twelves tribes of Israel and what their names mean:

103 This could be describing the characters of a people in the Age of Resurrection by making a sentence out of all their name to identify a group of people.

Reuben – Behold, A Son is born to us

Simeon – One who hears

Levi – Attached

Judah – Praise the Lord

Dan – He judged

Naphtali – My Struggle

Gad – Good fortune

Asher – Happiness

Issachar – Reward

Zebulun – Honour

Joseph – Add to my family

Benjamin – Son of righteousness
Manasseh “making forgetfulness”

The Tribe of Dan was replaced with Manasseh because he was a biter of the horses knell.


The Tribe of Dan (Hebrew: דָּן), meaning, “Judge”, was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, … That bites the horse’s heel, so that the rider tumbles backward.
