What is the Two-House teaching? What is its purpose? Who are Judah and Ephraim?

These are some questions you may be asking, considering the proliferation for the terms "Two-House" or "the Whole House of Israel" in recent days. What does the restoration of all Israel involve, and what is prophesied to occur?

Modern Christianity largely teaches that "the Church" is a separate entity from Israel, and as a result many Christians do not properly understand the Tanach or Old Testament. For this reason, very few claiming Yeshua as their Savior have taken the initiative to study the origins of our relationship with God beginning with the covenant made by God at Mount Sinai with the Ancient Israelites.

Ephesians 2:11-12 tells us that the non-Jewish Believer---the former Gentile---who has faith in Yeshua, has been made part of the Commonwealth of Israel. Today's Messianic community has the task of restoring the faith "built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets" (Ephesians 2:20), moving us back to how Yeshua and His early followers lived.
