NASB | Ezekiel 37:19 say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will put them with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand."' |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ezekiel 37:19 say to them, 'Thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am going to take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will join the stick of Judah with it and make them one stick, and they will be one in My hand."' |
Bible Question: Ephriam synonymous with Gentile believers? I saw a teaching from a messianic couple which stated that this verse and others were describing gentile and Jewish believers. That the true church was comprised largely of a scattered remnant of the ten lost tribes, and that the Lord would make us one. Any direct contradictions with scriptures? Alternate explanations? |
Bible Answer: No. Ephraim is the inheritor of His Father Joseph. Remember the story, Manaseh was the oldest but Ephraim inherited the promises. This is speaking of the promise of the Jews being saved. Now we are waiting for that day. When they turn to Jesus Christ as the messaih on a national level, then the Lord will come to Mount Zion. |
