1 Kings 12, verses 25 and following.
MichaelHOST
Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there.

From there he went out and built Penuel.
MichaelHOST
Jeroboam said to himself, the kingdom might now return to the house of David.
Scott StriplingGUEST
I caused my name to dwell there at the beginning.
Scott StriplingGUEST
So that then takes us to Joshua 18, 1, where the Bible says that Joshua erected or gave the orders to erect the Mishkan, the tent of the tabernacle at Shiloh, which is in Ephraim territory.
Scott StriplingGUEST
Joshua is from the tribe of Ephraim.
Scott StriplingGUEST
It's also centrally located.

And it was part of the Shechem city-state during the Late Bronze Age.

Rhys BezzantHOST
Much of the Christian life is a series of small decisions.
JohannaHOST
Now it came to pass after these things that Yahushua, son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of 110 years.
JohannaHOST
So they buried him in the territory of his own portion, in Timna Tzerah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
JohannaHOST
Israel worshipped the Lord all the days of Yehoshua and all the days of the elders who outlived Yehoshua and had known all the work of the Lord that he had done for Israel.
JohannaHOST
Yosef's bones, which the children of Israel had brought up from Egypt, they buried in Shechem, in the parcel of ground that Yaakov had bought from the sons of Hamol, the father of Shechem, for 100 pieces of silver.
JohannaHOST
It became the inheritance of the children of Yosef.
JohannaHOST
Then Elazar, son of Aharon, died, and they buried him in Gibeah, which had been given to Finchas, his son, in the hill country of Ephraim.
JohannaHOST
That was Joshua 24, and that concludes the book of Joshua.
JohannaHOST
Next we have our portion from the writings, and today it is Psalm 23.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
Even today, an important coming-of-age ceremony called the Patriarchal Blessing typically involves revealing to the blessed what tribe they descend from.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
According to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, many members specifically descend from the tribe of Ephraim.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
The final case study examines the Jewish community of Ethiopia, called the Beta Israel.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
There are about 170,000 Ethiopian Jews.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
But in the 20th century, the 12 tribes tradition enabled the Beta Israel to reorient themselves to a vision of Israel recognized by people outside of Ethiopia, recognized by the external world of Judaism as well.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
This shift cleared the way for their move from Ethiopia to the state of Israel, where the vast majority of the community now live.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
So as we've seen, depending on who you ask, you get a lot of different answers to the question, what happened to the 10 lost tribes? In fact, many of these people adopted and adapted an Israelite identity by claiming to be one or more of the tribes of Israel, whether it's the tribe of Ephraim or the tribe of Dan or others.
Andrew M. HenryHOST
The Hebrew Bible helps these claims seem more plausible because the Bible is silent about the destiny of the vast majority of these tribes.
Michael PaganoHOST
And Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of 110 years.
Michael PaganoHOST
And they buried him within the boundaries of his inheritance in Tenmoth-Heras, in the hill country of Ephraim.
Michael PaganoHOST
north of the mountains of Gash.
Michael PaganoHOST
And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers.

Michael PaganoHOST
Nevermind, JD's back.
Michael PaganoHOST
Who cares though? Ehud escaped while they delayed and he passed beyond the idols and escaped the Sarah.
Michael PaganoHOST
When he arrived, he sounded the trumpet in the hill country of Ephraim.
Michael PaganoHOST
Then the people of Israel went down with him from the hill country and he was their leader.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
But you see how one little act moved to another act, moved to Dan.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
Did you know that followed through, that followed the tribe of Dan, and it followed the tribe of Ephraim? And they eventually were the ones who, in the time of Jeroboam, I think, was the king.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
When Jeroboam was a king, that they would actually go and say, it's too far.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
It was the king that followed Solomon.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
but it was when there was ten tribes and two tribes and in order to keep the power he just said you don't have to journey all the way there to worship just let's erect an altar here because they were already conditioned because they'd already fallen into something because there was something in their throne room it became very easy to say yeah that's right let's just do this it's just more convenient and did you know that led to that tribe And Ephraim not being mentioned in their tribal order in the book of Revelations.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
Now after it was all over they got back.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
But do you see the seriousness of it? Not just Dan but Ephraim.
Ed HammermeisterHOST
I could track it.
Phil FieldsHOST
Then take another piece and carve these words on it.
Phil FieldsHOST
This represents Ephraim and the northern tribes of Israel.
Phil FieldsHOST
Now hold them together in your hand as if they were one piece of wood.
Phil FieldsHOST
When your people ask you what your actions mean, say to them, This is what the Sovereign Lord says.
Phil FieldsHOST
I will take Ephraim and the northern tribes and join them to Judah.
Phil FieldsHOST
I will make them one piece of wood in my hand.
Phil FieldsHOST
Let's read it.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
Let's look at 6 through 15.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
The Lord said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, have you seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? Remember, there's two kingdoms, the kingdom of Israel in the north with the ten tribes led by the tribe of Ephraim, and the south, the kingdom of Judah.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
And he says here, Have you seen that which backslided Israel hath done? She has gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot by having sexual intercourse with temple prostitutes worshiping false gods.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
And I said after she had done all these things, yet turn to me.
8 MINS LATER
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
Therefore, what I do unto this house, this temple in Jerusalem, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, you think I won't destroy it.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
And unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh, I will completely destroy it.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.
D. Todd HarrisonHOST
Therefore pray not thou for this people.
Stuart SandersHOST

Stuart SandersHOST
"'And he made him king over Gilead and the Asherites "'and Jezreel and Ephraim and Benjamin and all Israel.' Ish-bosheth, Saul's son, was 40 years old when he began to reign over Israel.
Stuart SandersHOST
He reigned two years, but the house of Judah followed David.
Stuart SandersHOST
Well, now you've run into a big old problem.
