I knew about Donny Osmond playing Joseph!! My parents watched it. Then they found out he was a Latter-Day Saint, never watched it again. Because they believe Latter-Day Saints are part of an evil, twisted religion.. It was great when I told them I am joining this Church :)) hahaha
@@davidsnell2605 yeah 😅 they are so scared for me but I told them once I move out I'm joining and that hasn't changed so yaaayyyy for me :)) I am joining the true and restored Church of Jesus once I move out and I am absolutely so very excited!! :))
Wow! Kwaku, my patriarchal blessing also does not include a tribe. My patriarch told me that I had "royal blood flowing through my veins" and I was the only person he had ever met who had "the full blood of Joseph" and thus did not belong to any of the 12 tribes. I am a convert of Jewish descent BTW. I also highly doubt the patriarch was aware of my ancestry as I kept it to myself up until after I received my blessing. I have begun re-reading my blessing and attending the temple to meditate on it more and I still have no idea how it pertains to me, but I am now comfortable with my heritage and the culture that I came from and I am compelled to learn more about the tradition of my ancestors and the Old Testament. I also have a testimony of Priesthood power and the importance of patriarchal blessings!
I remember my patriarch saying that if he didn’t say my tribe, after the blessing I should remind him and he would start the blessing again and tell me😂 and that has happened before. So idk Kwaku😂
David Snell could you guys do a more in depth video about the tribes and the lineage? And was that a serious comment about being adopted into a tribe? I had no idea that was a thing 😳 it would be great to get some more info..thanks!
@@MolyBDenum-lh3wy That's a great idea for a Faith and Beliefs episode, thanks. And yes when our lineage is revealed in our patriarchal blessing, that lineage _may_ not be literal, but an 'adoption' into that lineage.
David Snell that would be great 👍🏻 looking forward to it because you guys went really ‘unscripted’ on this one 😂 jk jk! I’m from the tribe of Ephraim and I’m of East Indian descent..how would I know if I’m adopted? 🤔
@@MolyBDenum-lh3wy Not sure how you'd know. I mean some people might literally be able to trace their lineage all the way back to one of the tribes, but that's probably pretty rare. I usually always assume someone's lineage is an adoption. I think it's probably more common than rare.
Taken from the Church website.... "Declaration of Lineage A patriarchal blessing includes a declaration of lineage, stating that the person is of the house of Israel-a descendant of Abraham, belonging to a specific tribe of Jacob." Kwaku's blessing is missing the specificness of which tribe he's from or adopted into. I would talk to a patriarch about it.
It’s because there is no discernible lineage or tribe in Israel through which he will receive the Abrahamic Covenant. In other words, there is not lineage of Israel in him which means there’s no specific tribal promises and blessings; so you are truly adopted into the Abrahamic Covenant and will receive all of the blessings of the kingdom of god through Abraham rather than through one of the sons of Jacob (Israel) predicated upon your faithfulness. It’s fairly rare but it happens. So nothing is really missing from his blessing.
Was just watching another Saints Unscripted video when I got the notification for this one! This is something I've wondered about too. Can't wait to finish watching this video.
amazing! If you don't mind me asking, may I ask where your wife's ancestors are from? I am of Jewish descent and my patriarch told me that I belonged to none of the tribes because I have "royal blood flowing through my veins"
Never seen the movie but heard of it. Anyways, Kwaku, did you know you have a legitimate reason to ask for a new patriarchal blessing because it doesn't state your tribe? But it's cool that yours is unusual, maybe your a decent from more than one.
If you can sing the song "Jacob and Sons" from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and then replace Joseph with Ephraim and Manasseh, then you can recite all the tribes from memory. 😉
I just want to say that all of you guys on this show are so filled with the love of the lord. You are right and all of the evangelicals who give you crap are wrong.

David Snell well, I am in Idaho at the moment, but any formal invite to talk with you guys is an honor in itself. Plus, I am glad you guys talked about people with disabilities in this channel, so I wish to say thank you 🙏🏽
I am from Ephraim and so is my husband. 4 of my six children have received their patriarchal blessings, children 1, 3, and 4 are from Ephraim but the 2 is of the tribe of Nephtali!
My wife and I are both from Manasseh, I’m Mexican and she’s Mexican/Puerto Rican. I did meet a man when on my mission in Kansas who was Native American (I think Lakota) at the Haskell Indian Nations University who was of the Tribe of Ephraim.
I knew about Donny Osmond playing Joseph. (And no, I'm not a Church member) Also, interesting side note: because there are technically 13 Tribes, it means that whenever the Tribes are mentioned in the Tanakh, there are always 12, even when one of them is omitted for some reason. (Such as when discussing land allotments, since the Tribe of Levi had control of cities, but no land.)
Hey I’m Jewish so I can answer that for you. Not a rabbi or an expert but my understanding is that they say 12 tribes because the 13 is a off shoot of one of the 12 tribes. All one large Jewish family though as any Jew will say a Jew is a Jew.
I didn’t realize that Donny Osmond played Joseph. I like the cartoon version: it’s called something like Joseph: King of Dreams. I can’t remember for sure.
Kwaku, my father-in-law came from the line of Joseph. We thought that was different also. His mother was from Ephraim and his father was from Manasseh. Mine doesn't say anything about tribes either, it says "loins of Ephraim"
@@heatherluna5075 his mother was from Ephraim and his father from Manasseh. His did not say either only Joseph, which is the father of both. So he (my father-in-law) understood it as coming from both, which makes sense considering the lineage of his parents.
I am from the lineage of Joseph in the tribe of Ephraim! I believe I have actual polish ashkenazi jewish ancestors as well so it could be direct blood lineage!!!! :)
Jacob did also bless Joseph, and in chapter 49 its Joseph' blessing. he blessed all his sons but Ephraim and Manasseh were adopted and would be called after Jacob's name (Isreal). For greater understanding the Lord revealed unto Joseph Smith and restored that which was lost which is found in the JST. 😁😊 Moses also in his blessing to the tribe of Joseph in Deuteronomy 33:17 "His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of the wild ox: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh" Joseph symbol is the ox. Ephraim also received the birthright as the firstborn because Reuben lost it because of his sins. It would be nice to talk more about this but good video. Thanks brethren.
Um yeah Joseph and the amazing technicolor dream coat is AMAZING!!! I’ve even been in a version of it. I wanted to be part of it so much. You really should look it up.....
7:45 Assyria’s conquest of the northern kingdom (Israel) began approximately 740 BC, and the Assyrian Captivity technically started then. However, the fall of the capital city, Samaria to Shalmaneser V (and thus the final stage of the Assyrian Captivity), did in fact occur in about 721 BC. So good on you, David!
The reason the young black man was not given a tribe is because in LDS Black people were not considered when their book was written. So therefore he wouldn’t fit into any predetermined tribe. Now, if he did a deep dive into who the real 12 tribes were...if he is of African-American origin he will come to know that he is of the tribe of Judah. The Native Americans who the LDS church speaks of are from the tribe of Gad. This is very clear throughout Exodus and Deuteronomy especially Deuteronomy 28.
Thank you I'm glad I came across this comment because I almost cussed these heathens out on the comment section they are literally mocking the children of THE MOST HIGH this is so disrespectful 🤬
I had a Samoan missionary companion who was from the tribe of Benjamin. I'm from the tribe of Manasseh, and I'm polynesian, I believe most polynesians are from that tribe. Also, Donny Osmond as Joseph is common knowledge, get with the times Kwaku.
Psalms 50:16-22 [16]But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? [17]Seeing thou hatest instruction, and castest my words behind thee. [18]When thou sawest a thief, then thou consentedst with him, and hast been partaker with adulterers. [19]Thou givest thy mouth to evil, and thy tongue frameth deceit. [20]Thou sittest and speakest against thy brother; thou slanderest thine own mother's son. [21]These things hast thou done, and I kept silence; thou thoughtest that I was altogether such an one as thyself: but I will reprove thee, and set them in order before thine eyes. [22]Now consider this, ye that forget God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver.
Kwaku, I heard of people getting a second patriarchal blessing that's just a declaration of lineage because their original left that out. You may want to talk to your bishop or patriarch about that
David, were you at This Is The Place last Saturday attending a luau? I could have sworn I saw you there, but if that wasn't you, you have a twin out there.
Yeah another mormon family that inbred and never wrote their own songs they always did a cover of other people's songs.. well thats a mormon for ya.. lol
Hello I'm new to the church I'm confused about I Thought there are only 10 tribes of Israel what's the Tribe of Abraham Please help me understand more.
5:40. I think we go with 12 because of the land divisions in the nation of Israel back then (about 1600 BC. When Joshua lead them.) Levites didn't get land. They mixed in the others.
I totally understand keeping things short and sweet but just referencing the Israelites ( 10 Northern tribes btw) being scattered without making a simple reference to why was an oversight imo. Deuteronomy 28, curses of the Israelites. A slight reference to the northern tribes reverting back to certain pagan rituals, therefore breaking God's covenant, leading to their exile and enslavement in lands unknown to their fathers would have been a nice touch. God did lay it all out there.
I came to this video after going to like 3 random Bible scholar videos just trying to find out what on earth the responsibilities of all the tribes are. Turns out none of us know
The whole tribe business is an inheritance thing. Each of the 12 tribes of Israel was given certain areas of land to occupy depending on their tribe. The 12 sons of Jacob all had land granted to them UNTIL God gave the tribe of Levi the responsibility of the priesthood. The tribe of Levi would be scattered among all the other tribes so they were NOT given a portion of land as an inheritance but were the ONLY tribe given the responsibility of the priesthood. Okay, so the tribe of Ephriam, the second son of Joseph (who was sold into Egypt), received the land as his father's heir because he received the birthright inheritance and why there isn't a tribe of Joseph. His older brother Manasseh is given the land that would have otherwise been given to the tribe of Levi. So there are STILL 12 tribes of Israel...not 13.
I don't understand how this isn't considered anti-Semitic. There is a huge controversy right now with the documentary about africans and the lost tribes of Israel. Kyrie Irving might lose his job over it. Yet, LDS people can literally believe the same thing and nobody has an issue with it?
My wife loves Donny Osman.... Go away little girl. Donny and Marie show. Donnys comeback in the 80's. The guy in this video is too young. Dude take a look at your elders. I came to like my parents and grandparents music once I got a little older.
My dad knows all the names of the twelve tribes in order. Of course I know about Donny Osmond playing Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat! I have the movie. There you go Kwaku.
I love the channel but please start using icards for videos that you guys refer to during your videos. It makes it so I don't have to search your whole channel to find the video you referred to.
~Not related to the video~ but I have a suggestion for a video or two! I think it would be great if you talked about abuse! All kinds of abuse, and how we can rely on Christ, Heavenly Father, the Holy Ghost, church leaders, and/or professional help. 😇
I'm curious how the Judains feel about people being designated into tribes of Isreal. Hmmmmm I must've missed that scripture. Very whiggerish behavior.
In my family, I connected the dot through my family lineage on my dad's side from the native Americans are Lamanites, and I pondered on that many times.
@10:50 leviim and kohanim are definitely still a thing. The kohanim give the priestly blessing several times per year at the major festivals. Fun fact that's where the vulcan salute comes from in star trek.
Additionally in an orthodox shul the first torah portion is always given to a kohan and the second to a levi. They also receive some other random liturgical privileges.
Clarification; the kohanim give the blessing at most major festivals (pesach, shavuos, etc) in the shul throughout the world. This is part of the Mussaf service, which recounts in exacting detail what would happen on that day at the Temple if it still existed. You will not generally see it in a reform synagogue because they place a higher emphasis on ethics and spirituality than ritual. However, at the Kotel (western wall) it is performed every morning. There are some who have even snuck upstairs to the temple mount and performed it there (as inadvisable as that is from both a safety and Jewish law stance).
I knew about Donny Osmond playing Joseph!! My parents watched it. Then they found out he was a Latter-Day Saint, never watched it again. Because they believe Latter-Day Saints are part of an evil, twisted religion.. It was great when I told them I am joining this Church :)) hahaha

I don't understand how this isn't considered anti-Semitic. There is a huge controversy right now with the documentary about africans and the lost tribes of Israel. Kyrie Irving might lose his job over it. Yet, LDS people can literally believe the same thing and nobody has an issue with it?
I didn't know about Donnie
Kwaku is the second person I've seen that is not assigned to a tribe, but designated as a descendant of Abraham alone.
So my patriarchal blessing tells me I'm from the tribe of Manassah.
And I have Donny as Joseph on DVD.
>SPECIAL ME! 💪
Millennial viewer -- def know Donny as Joseph.
Kwaku needs to get with the times.
My wife loves Donny Osman.... Go away little girl. Donny and Marie show. Donnys comeback in the 80's. The guy in this video is too young. Dude take a look at your elders. I came to like my parents and grandparents music once I got a little older.
Back in the day in Ohio we would have tri stake firesides when Donny Osman came to town.
It‘s new to me that he played Joseph, but i‘m from Germany.
My dad knows all the names of the twelve tribes in order.
Of course I know about Donny Osmond playing Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat! I have the movie. There you go Kwaku.
Donny Osmond is my fave and every song in that musical is a banger.
Reuven, Shimon, Levy, Yehuda, yisuschar, Zevulen, Dan, Naftali, Gad, Asher, Yoseph, Benyumin
Anybody else in Dan?
I'm a post-millennial and I know who Donny Osmond is. Kwaku you're just uncultured 😜just kidding!
I also from the tribe of Ephraim (just like everyone else I know)
Ephraim is also the tribe that distributes all blessings to all the children of God. And how glorious is it to begin with baptism?
I love the channel but please start using icards for videos that you guys refer to during your videos. It makes it so I don't have to search your whole channel to find the video you referred to.
fresh hummus made by a person of middle eastern ethnic group, is actually very good
~Not related to the video~ but I have a suggestion for a video or two! I think it would be great if you talked about abuse! All kinds of abuse, and how we can rely on Christ, Heavenly Father, the Holy Ghost, church leaders, and/or professional help. 😇
Y'all are hilarious! Donny Osmand! 🤣 I remember him!!!
Actually, that movie helped me remember some of the names. 😆
Never seen or even heard of the Donny/Joseph movie
I know about Donny Osmond. In fact one of his brothers lives in my ward.
I. Knew about do yechcolot coat musical
I'm curious how the Judains feel about people being designated into tribes of Isreal. Hmmmmm I must've missed that scripture. Very whiggerish behavior.
Ruben gave up his spot because he was the oldest and he helped in casting Joseph to the Egyptians
In my family, I connected the dot through my family lineage on my dad's side from the native Americans are Lamanites, and I pondered on that many times.
My father’s blessing also only says Abraham,
Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat was awesome
@10:50 leviim and kohanim are definitely still a thing. The kohanim give the priestly blessing several times per year at the major festivals. Fun fact that's where the vulcan salute comes from in star trek.
Additionally in an orthodox shul the first torah portion is always given to a kohan and the second to a levi. They also receive some other random liturgical privileges.
Clarification; the kohanim give the blessing at most major festivals (pesach, shavuos, etc) in the shul throughout the world. This is part of the Mussaf service, which recounts in exacting detail what would happen on that day at the Temple if it still existed. You will not generally see it in a reform synagogue because they place a higher emphasis on ethics and spirituality than ritual.
However, at the Kotel (western wall) it is performed every morning. There are some who have even snuck upstairs to the temple mount and performed it there (as inadvisable as that is from both a safety and Jewish law stance).
Please tell me you talked to your patriarch after that episode.
