The coming forth of the "Stick of Joseph" was seen by many, including the people to whom the prophecy was made. A righteous branch from the House of Israel would fulfill its destiny, as promised to Joseph in a patriarchal blessing from his father, Jacob who was also called Israel... but whatever happened to them? Such a "grand blessing" was really left to the wonderment of those who now read it from out of the Bible. Was the seed of Joseph scattered along with the rest of the House of Israel? Would they be found upon the Isles of the Sea, very much removed from the Holy Land?
The Holy Land of Israel is indeed a "choice land" among the Jews who for centuries have been far removed from it.
But where would Joseph's descendants dwell? Would they somehow have a larger portion, the Largest of ALL of Israel? If so, how could that land house such innumerable host of the Seed of Joseph whose seed should "even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
Would they then over run the house of Judah? There is nothing that would suggest Joseph's seed were among the House of Judah nor unto the overpowering of them in numbers.
Where are" the everlasting chills as Jacob saw for Joseph... that which shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren."
We know that Joseph's seed would be separate from his bretheren but how? And would we have their record as Ezekiel suggest in the formation of both "The Stick of Judah" and also the "Stick of Joseph?"
Many in the world know about the "Stick of Judah" which is the Bible... the scriptural record which proceedeth forth from the Mouth of a Jew... where is the Stick of Joseph? Has it been found? Have they been both put together once more as Ezekiel had prophesied? The answer is YES and that this has happened decades ago. For those who have faith and trust in the Lord, the revealing of this record made by Joseph's descendants, it should not be a hard thing to receive. For it has been prophesied by Isaiah to come forth as the Lord Brings about a "Book that which was sealed" and subsequently, a "marvellous work and a wonder among this people" with the use of this Book brought to light by the Hand of God. (Isaiah 29)

Genesis 22:17

That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which [is] upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;

@LDSfaithDefender ok im sorry you seem to not have studied this very much. Yung has it pretty close. the stick would be there form of paper rolled around a piece of wood to add rigidity so it wouldn't become folded. Im not saying Yung is adding only in the sense the LDS teaching of this goes beyond the Bible for it's explanation. The Bible provides the explanation of these verses as well as written and recorded history all these coincide, its not referring to Bible+BOM.

[LDSfaithDefender]

@blckchrysda He is NOT adding meaning to those verses. Here's what Ezekiel 37:16-17 says in The Revised English Bible: ‘O man, take one leaf of a wooden tablet and write on it, “Judah and the Israelites associated with him”. Then take another leaf and write on it, “Joseph, the leaf of Ephraim and all the Israelite tribes”. Now bring the two together to form one tablet; then they will be a folding tablet in your hand.

It's the Authorized Version that renders those verses wrongly.

[blckchrysda]

@Yunginspirit There is no mention of one of the books falling away from the other to become lost. After the two nations become one, this is proven historically the Babylon empire came in and kicked them out. Are you adding meaning to these verses?

[blckchrysda]

@Yunginspirit then am i adding or taking away from what is being said in the Bible? I need to ask your opinion on this, not me telling you. I have read those verses many times. I emplore you to read them, and read them like a 8 year old who is seeing them for the first time, clear your mind and your heart. Pray that God will show you what is there.
