the United States even existed. “The Cherokees lived on land extending from North Carolina to South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama for hundreds of years” (Green & Perdue, 1). They were constantly moving around involuntarily. The Cherokee tribes were often forced to leave their land when Americans found use of the land that the Cherokees were living on. White Americans were wanting their land because they found gold, wanted their livestock and they were able to evict the Cherokees out…

The whole Cherokee nation was not involved with the Confederates, though. The Cherokees were divided in half and some fought with the Union soldiers. Many other tribes from the Northern United States were; portions of the Creek and Seminole, Kickapoo, Seneca, Shawnee, Iroquois, and many more. Principal Chief John Ross and Stand Watie were rivals. Chief Ross believed that if they remained neutral, they would…

Grant Foreman discusses the tragic events that occurred during the Cherokee’s travel to Indian Territory in the 1830s. Grant Foreman argues that diseases were the main struggle for the Cherokee Tribe. In Grant Foreman’s Indian Removal: The Emigration of the Five Civilized Tribes of Indians, Grant states that the Cherokee Indians “had suffered much from disease and several deaths had occurred among them” (Foreman, 256). Measles and cholera were the main diseases that affected the Cherokee…

including Nebraska and Iowa in which the Omaha Indians settled. According to the “Omaha Tribe Against the Current” article online, the tribe had a “total land area [of] 307.474 sq. miles and a population of 5,194”. This was all based on census that was given in the year 2000. The Omaha speak a language that is similar to the Ponca Indians. They speak the Siouian language, which was also spoken by different tribes. Unfortunately, a majority of the Indians today do not speak that language.…

“MANASSEH AND EPHRAIM” The Egyptian children of Joseph were given two tribes among the children of Israel, and their tribes were known to be the tribe of Manasseh and Ephraim (Genesis 13:8, 11). These tribes became leaders among the Hebrews and Jewish communities. Moses was able to select two people from each tribe of the Egyptian sons of Joseph to spy the land of Canaan (Numbers 13:1-2,8,11,16). Manasseh was given his father's place, he took over the tribe of Joseph which was among the twelve…

I reviewed the film “The Lost Tribes”. This film was about 10 of the original 12 Hebrew tribes, which, under the authority of Joshua, claimed Canaan, the Promised Land, after the passing of Moses. These tribes are Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulun, and Joseph (whose tribe was isolated into the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh). The vast majority of the general population of the Northern Kingdom were extradited to old Assyria (2 Kings 17:6). A significant number of…

Revelation 7:3 saying, “Do not harm the earth, the sea, or the trees till we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.” Revelation 7:4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed. One hundred and forty-four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel were…

Because of this, the people asked that God shine before the tribes that they have, and lead them, as he did Jacob. The tribes were odious and separated, their tribes names were; Ephraim, Simeon, and Manasseh, these were in the north. There were also Judah, and Benjamin, these were in the south. Altogether there were 12 tribes; these ones that I have listed were the more “major” ones. Ephraim was one of the children of Joseph. Manasseh was a child of Hephzibah, became a king at 12 and reigned…

Absalom was the third son of David, whose mother was Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur ( 2 Samuel 3:2-3; 1 Chronicles 3:1-2). When Moses defeated Sihon the Amorite king, the Geshurites and the Maachathites were part of Amorite kingdom. However, the children of Israel did not expelled the Geshurites, nor the Maachathites, but Geshur and Maacath dwell among the Israelites, and where ruled by their own king (Joshua 13:10-13). The Canaanite people of Geshur who were the Geshurites dwelt…

The Hebraic worldview is exemplified throughout the narratives of the prophets. By examining the actions and values of the Hebrew people, we can see the progression of their worldview and how it changed over time. The Hebrew worldview is commonly divided into three aspects: Pre-Exilic, Exilic, and Post-Exilic. Each frame for worldview is based upon whether it was before, during, or after Babylonian rule. The Pre-Exilic worldview began with King Saul and continued until Israel was controlled by…
