QUESTION: How do you place Judah in Germany. We realize that Judah is mixed with Israel all over the world, but why Germany specifically? Since the Kings came from Judah, it is more likely England, is it not? We know that England is Ephraim and if Judah is mixed with them, why are they then Germany. Why does Germany have to be Judah? Will Germany be with us or against us in the last battle?

ANSWER: I will answer that in the same vein that it was asked. The area of Germany is Judah today. There is no question of this. She carries the symbols of the double Eagle, two houses. There was a tribe of Judah although the throne line through the house of David was transferred to the land of Israel. When part of Judah and Benjamin with their quota of Levi, returned to rebuild the Temple at Jerusalem, in the period of the Maccabees, in the wars started by Jews, these Israelites lost their temple which they had rebuilt under the leadership of Nehemiah. But they were still in the land. But Herod rebuilt this temple which was there in the days of Jesus.

It was all covered over with gold. It was built by pagans because Herod was a Sadducee king of the pagans who had come in. Benjamin and some of Judah lived in Galilee, not Judea. This is why they were called Galileans as was Jesus. For the Scripture says: ’See if any prophet comes out of Galilee.’
