The Twelve Tribes of Israel (2)

The almighty God called Abraham from the land of his fathers and promised to make him the father of many nations. After many years of this promise, Abraham had not conceived from his wife Sarah. Although, Abraham still had faith and believed God, however, his wife was impatient and compromised: he made Abraham to bore Ismael through her maid, Hagar. The consequence of this action has made the entire world to lost peace in the middle-east. "In Isaac shall thy seed be" these were the words of the almighty God (the Ancient of days) to Abraham. He was re-affirming his promise to Abraham that Isaac was the choosing one. After few years, Isaac was eventually born; Isaac got married to Rachel and conceived Jacob and Esau. It was Jacobs’s twelve sons that gave birth to the nation Israel. The twelve sons are the twelve tribes in which every Jews associate till this day.
