Abraham was an Hebrew,which comes from the word 'eber'meaning 'from across the river'. Abraham's nephew Lot, was also a Hebrew. Abraham then begat Isaac, who naturally was Hebrew also. However, neither of them, nor Lot were Jews. Why? Judah hadn't been born yet. Then Isaac begat Jacob whose name was changed to Israel. Israel(Jacob) had 12 sons who, today, have become nations as numerous as the sands of the sea and the stars of the sky. All 12 sons were Israelites(born of Jacob, who was Israel).Only those of his son Judah were of Judah,i.e."Jews". The other 11 tribes were of Israel, but not of Judah. Not all Hebrew's are Israelites.(Lot and his family for example). Not all Israelites are Jews. Most aren't. 11 of the 12 tribes aren't. Only those of Judah. The 11 tribes are both Israelites and Hebrews, but not Jews. | ||||||

Hi, homer... Dear SOG, You'd be hard pressed to make this distinction to some of my relatives -- the terms are used pretty interchangeably these days? I know that this DNA thing is as important to some of you all as it is to some of my unconverted family. However, you might find that a better hermeneutic arises by simply recognizing that God always has His elect -- a remnant -- from among men, through whom He is working out His eternal purpose. That theme runs through the Scriptures from Creation to the City Foursquare. Just a thought, from an aging son of Jacob. In Him, Doc |
