And why didn't you produce just ONE example of Holy Scripture where a member of the Tribe of Benjamin who lived in Judaea was ever referred to as a "jew"?
*Esther 2:5
"Now there was a Jew in Susa, the capital whose name was Mordecah, the son of Jair, son of Shimei, son of Kish, a Benjaminite,...."
Because you cannot?
*But John, I just did.
No, Zayton, what you DID do was produce the Holy Scripture which refers to a JEW.
Mordecai wasn't an Israelite--because he was a JEW.
*At least try to be consistant in your drivel, John. You asked for an example of a mamber of the tribe of Benjamin being called a Jew. You claim that members of that tribe are "Israelites" but not "Jews"; even though the name of theri reigion of the country is the source of the term "Jew". I gave you a reference to Mordechi, who, even though he is no longer living in Judea is still called a Jew.
ONE of Mordecai's four great-grand fathers was an Israelite, of the Tribe of Benjamin. But because the Holy Bible referred to Mordecai a JEW and not as an Israelite, at least ONE of his other great-grandfathers, if not all of the rest, had to have been JEWS.
*I gave you the citatiion for Mordechi, the Benjaminite Jew; Where the reference for your bizzaire claims. The Bible doesn't say that his great-grandfather was both a Benjaminite and a Jew. It says that he was. Your racist lies are in conflict with the Bible, John.
It's well documented throughout the Holy Bible that none of the children of an Israelite who ever married a JEW was considered to be an Israelite:
* John You keep repeating this lie, but you never give any evidence. Why? Because there isn't any!

Bastard
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD, Deuteronomy 23:2
Perhaps you could argue that the descendants of such an Israelite could re-enter "the congregation of the LORD" after ten generations, but not even that would prove that they would be considered to be Israelites at that point.
