Who Are The Hebrews?

"NOTICE THE AFRO'S AND BEARDS. THE HEBREWS ALSO WORE GARMENTS WITH FRINGES. ALSO, KEEP IN MIND THE VARIOUS SHADES OF THE HEBREWS RANGING FROM LIGHT SKINNED TO DARK SKINNED!!! THE EGYPTIANS WORE A HEADDRESS AND GOATEE'S NOT AFRO'S AND BEARDS, BUT, THE WERE ALSO DARK SKINNED. HOWEVER, THEY WERE NOT HEBREWS." http://www.therealhebrewisraelites.com/ accessed 2015-08-02.

Where have they gone? Who are they now?

These are just a few of the questions this essay hopes to point to the true answers.

Etymology

The modern word "Hebrew" is derived from the word "Ibri" (plural "Ibrim"), one of several names for the Jewish people. It is traditionally understood to be an adjective based on the name of Abraham's ancestor, Eber ("Ebr" עבר in Hebrew), mentioned in Genesis 10:21. This name is possibly based upon the root "ʕ-b-r" (עבר) meaning "to cross over". Interpretations of the term "ʕibrim" link it to this verb; cross over and homiletical or the people who crossed over the river Euphrates.["הספריה של מט"ח". Lib.cet.ac.il.

The Fullness Of The Gentiles

What Is The Fullness of the Gentiles"?

This is a short essay and a very brief study blazing a path to catalyze further study hoping we can collectively share and gain knowledge of the Truth in the Scriptures.

For I do not wish you to be ignorant of this secret, brothers, lest you should be wise in your own estimation, that hardening in part has come over Yisra’ĕl, until the completeness of the gentiles1 has come in.
Footnote: 1 Gen. 48:19.
(Rom 11:25 The Scriptures 1998+)

But his father refused and said, “I know, my son, I know. He also becomes a people, and he also is great. And yet, his younger brother is greater than he, and his seed is to become the completeness of the nations.”
(Gen 48:19 The Scriptures 1998+)

Who Are The Gentiles?

The King James Bible describes Noah's son Japheth as father of the "gentiles" or "nations", (Genesis 10:5).

Strong's Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries, define "gentile" as a non-Jewish, and by implication pagan, or heathen.

It could also mean "heathen, nation", and these are other nations other than the Jewish nation.
