Overview

This is a reprint of the original Book. The term Ephraim is synonymous with Israel, and embodies the Ten Tribes as a consolidated people. Manasseh is a thirteenth Tribe, decreed by the Almighty to be a great people, a distinct nationality; nevertheless Ephraim was to be greater than he (Gen. xlviii. 19) - that is, a distinct nationality from Manasseh, so that it testifies of ignorance to include Manasseh as one of the Ten Tribes. Ephraim and Manasseh must be two distinct nations, though of the same stock. Therefore, in seeking for Lost Israel, we need not deal with Manasseh for the present. The Jews are of Israel, therefore purely Israelites, but the people of the Ten Tribes were never Jews. This is an important distinction to bear in mind. Scripture often speaks of Judah under the term of Israelites, especially the Prophet Ezekiel; yet when this term is applied to Judah, and it becomes needful to distinguish the Ten Tribes from her, it is done by using the terms all Israel, the whole House of Israel, 'the House of Israel wholly. These terms are copyright to Israel and never applied to Judah.

Author Information

Edward Hine (10 Feb 1825-15 Oct 1891) was an influential proponent of The Lost Tribes of Israel being in Europe in the 1870s and 1880s, drawing on the earlier work of Richard Brothers (1794) and John Wilson (1840). A bank clerk by occupation, Hine claimed that he had been inspired by a lecture given by Wilson in London, which he heard at the age of 15, but he himself did not publish on the topic for nearly thirty years, giving his first public lecture in 1869 (Barkun 1997, p. 10). For several years Hine published a weekly journal, The Nation's Leader, and a monthly magazine, Life from the Dead (from 1873 onwards).
