    My question is "What happened to the tribe of Dan"?
  • Chris - In Reply on 1 Chronicles 11 - 3 years ago
    Both the tribe of Dan & the tribe pertaining to Ephraim (son of Joseph) are missing from the list in Revelation 7:4-8. There is no certainty why these names are missing, with the tribes of Joseph & Manasseh being reflected instead. The general reason given is that according to Judges 18:30-31, Dan went into idol worship, as also Ephraim, & they had failed to repent & return to the worship of the true God. Even though they would have continued to survive (i.e. not being wiped out), their idolatrous practises caused God to isolate & remove them entirely.
