A Basic History of Israel
God called Abram out of the land of the Chaldees, from Ur. Ur is probably in modern day Iraq. Abram was a Hebrew. We see in the rest of Genesis 11, which is from what we call 'The Hebrew Bible' which is Genesis 1 to Genesis 11. Genesis 11 ends with the naming of Abram as 20th in the line of Adam, through Shem and Eber. Eber is the father of the Hebrew people. Hebrews fall under the Noahide Covenant and, in our judgment, also partake of knowledge of Genesis 11:10 to the end of the chapter. We feel that Hebrew Noahides can make an assessment whether they take in knowledge of Genesis 12 to 14, which is knowledge of the Hebrew Abram BEFORE he entered into covenant with God. It is a difficult judgment to make, which we leave in the hands of the Hebrew Noahide community. It is not our place to make any judgment for their concerns, though we might have an opinion which we would share if they asked us. Abram was married to Sarai. Sarai was his half sister. Abram left Ur with his family and came to Haran. Then they came to Canaan and lived in places like Beersheba. Abram had a son at 86 years of age which was named 'Ishmael'. By this time Abram had been circumcised according to the covenant he had entered into with God. There was also a covenant of land given to Abram, which is from the river Euphtrates to the river of Egypt. The northern and southern boundaries of Abram's land is not defined in the writings. Abram's wife Sarai was coveted by various patriarchs of the land, but she was restored to Abram. Ishamel was Abram's son through Hagar. Sarai didn't like Hagar and had Abram cast her out, with Ishmael, but they survived and the Angel of the Lord watched over them. Abram was promised a child from God, and that child was Isaac. Isaac had two sons, Esau and Jacob. Esau was firstborn, but Jacob tricked him out of his birthright. Jacob had 12 sons, Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Zebulun, Gad, Naphtali, Asher, Dan, Joseph, Benjamin and Issachar and daughters Serah and Dinah. Joseph got sold into slavery to Ishmaelites by his brothers, who were jealous of him, and they took him to Egypt. He had a lovely technicolour dreamcoat which had been given to him. In Egypt Joseph gradually rose to power, and served the Pharaoh of Egypt. Jacob came to Egypt when he was old, having found out that Joseph was still alive, and the people of Jacob, who had been renamed Israel, dwelt thereon in Egypt, in the land of Goshen. The Egyptians made them slaves, though, and Moses was raised up by God, who was from the tribe of Levi, who delivered them by punishing Egypt with plagues. The law from Mt Sinai was given to the wandering Israelites. They eventually conquered the land of Canaan and Joshua was the one who divided up the land amongst the 12 tribes. There was a period of various Judges, including Samson and Gideo, and Samson had amazing strength because of his long hair. The monarchy soon started though, and Saul was the first King followed by King David, a bloody man, but who was also after the Lord's heart. He slew Goliath, cutting off his head after hurling a stone at him from a sling, and he became famous in Israel. There were monarchs for many centuries, and Solomon, David's son, had the Temple built. The Temple was ultimately destroy and Israel was sent into exile in Babylon. They were in exile for 70 years. There had been many prophets who preached God's message over the years, and in Babylon the prophet Daniel gave prophecies about the Everlasting Kingdom of God. Israel was redeemed from exile, and the Temple was reinstituted. Finally, as shown in Apocryphal writings, the Maccabeans recovered the temple after the persecutions of Anitochus Epiphanes IV, and the last prophets spoke of Elijah returning one day, preparing the way for the Angel of the Lord, who would stand and redeem Israel, usherin in the world to come and the resurrection of the dead.
