Blaine:  When Jacob gave his blessings to Ephraim and Mannasseh, he gave the greater blessing to Ephraim, whom he said would be greater than his older brother.   In Biblical history, Ephraim was one of the two leading  tribes, competing with Judah.  The kingdoms of Israel and Judah were ruled by descendants of Ephraim and Judah respectively, those from the tribe of Judah being of the lineage of David.  The tribes led by Ephraim (the ten tribes) were "lost" as they were conquered and taken out of the land of Israel.  But several books have been written with evidence that they  were led into the Northern European countries. I believe many of the European "Gentiles" are of that lineage, especially the British.  The British flag shows both the Lion and the Unicorn.  The Lion has always represented Judah.  It is still the symbol for the nation of Israel.   Moses Mainamides, a Jew of the 14th century,  showed by pedigree that most of the ruling class of Europe descends from David, who was of the tribe of Judah. 
 
The Unicorn is from a mistranslation in the Bible of the true symbol of the tribe of Joseph, which is the wild ox.  The two horns represent the two sons of Joseph--Ephraim and Manasseh.   England, I believe in particular has much of the blood of Israel in it.  The word "Saxons" is thought by some to be a corruption of the word "Isaac'sons."    Many of the fair people of Northern Europe probably are also of the House of Israel, including Denmark--where the tribe of Dan settled?  Just a little food for thought.

Figures the LDS would pick the Tribe that was rejected by God because of its IDOL WORSHIP!
Hosea 7:4 Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Hosea 4:17 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.

Blaine, if you are a descendant of American Indians, and considerself a
descendant of Ephraim, you are barking up the wrong family tree! There is NO
proof, either archaelogically or historically, that the American indians
descended from ancient hebrews. That is Mormon folklore based on a work
plaigerized by JS. If you disagree, then please give you pedigree, or
"generations", from Ephraim to yourself. If you cannot, then I am afraid you
are a liar.

No, as far as I know, I am not a descendant of the House of Israel (but who
knows? there were 10 lost tribes!). However, I am a child of God and a
member of the Body of Christ, having joined in the New Covenant. My lineage
does not matter with respect to my faith and belief in Jesus Christ.
