TRIBE
OF GAD
RUSSIA
Slavic
Peoples: [East, West] Poland, Czech, Ukraine
'And
Leah said, A troop cometh: and she called his name Gad.' GAD: the name
means
fortune and luck, but also can mean 'a troop'. In Hebrew, the name Gad
is taken
from #1464, guwd {goode}, meaning to overcome, invade with troops, to
attack.
Seems that we have a good fortune troop that is destined to invade, or
be on
the attack. Well, you’ve heard the expression, ‘the Russians are
coming’, ‘the
Russians are coming’, haven’t you? Gad is the brother of Asher, and was
Jacob's
seventh son by Zilpah. Fortune cometh to Gad – but also Gad will invade.
The
tribes of Reuben and Gad followed similar pursuits throughout their
biblical
histories. Reuben, as you will remember, is Brittany France. The ties
between
France and Russia have traditionally always been close. The
Franco-Russian
Alliance was a military alliance between the French 3rd
Republic and
the Russian Empire. One might say, it was the Reuben-Gad Alliance.
France went
so far as to name a number of streets and roads [in France] after
Stalingrad.
Go figure!
The
tribe of Gad was fierce and warlike, with strong men of might ready for
battle.
'They had the faces of lions and were like roes upon the mountains for
swiftness.' I Chr 12:8. Russia's Imperial Army and the Red Army were,
for sure,
fierce fighting 'lions'.
'Gad, a troop shall overcome him:
but he shall overcome at the last.' This description would tell us that
Russia
will prevail, and being north of quite a few other nations – the party
'north'
usually does come out ahead for some reason, perhaps it is from this
very
prophesy that set the pattern for this fact, they may appear whipped at
first,
as in WWII, but they will overcome in the end.
'And
of Gad he said, blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: Have you ever noticed
how
large the territory of Russia is – it is large. He dwelleth as a
[rampant]
lion, and teareth the arm [ARMY] at the crown of the head. And he
provided the
first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver,
was he
seated, and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the
justice of
the Lord and his judgments with Israel.' Israel is Ephraim, the United
States
and United Kingdom – Russia is usually consulted by Ephraim when it
comes to
global maneuvers, Gad usually comes to the table with the heads of
state.
Of fortune and luck: Folk
etymologies and scholars, such as Roman Jacobson, traditionally link
the
[Slavic] name either with the word sláva ['glory' and 'fame'],
or with the word
slovo ['word and talk']. West Slavic Israelites are Czechs, Poles, and
Slovak.
East Slavic Israelites are Belarusians, Russians, and Ukrainians. South
Slavic
people are among the non-Israelite, or Gentile nations, they are:
Bosniaks,
Bulgarians, Croats, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Serbs, and Slovenians –
mostly
of Iranian stock.
Gad
is most identified with Russia, and if it is troops that Gad has,
Russia
had/has many TROOPS, called the Red Guard, the Red Army, the White Army
&
Guard, the Black Army, and the Green Army. All these colorful armies
carried
out a major operation during the Russian Civil War; however, the troop
that,
for a time, overcomes Gad is Dan’s German Nazis, led by Hitler, but Gad
[as the
Soviet Union], overcomes this invading troop in the end - with a little
help
from his 'brethren' nations.
The
Soviet Red Army put up a fierce 'lion's' resistance during the early
stages of
WWII, but was often ineffective against the better-equipped,
well-trained,
experienced Nazi German forces. The Nazis were eventually driven back
in
December 1941 near Moscow. Stalin engaged Soviet Marshal Georgy Zhukov
to
orchestrate the decisive German defeat in the Battle of Stalingrad. The
German
forces were never able to recover from this loss and were eventually
forced
into a long retreat out of Eastern Europe. Gad, as a rampant lion,
teareth the
arm[y] at the crown of the head, meaning the head-of the Nazi movement,
Hitler.
For the Soviets, who also suffered great losses during the battle, the
victory
at Stalingrad marked the start of the liberation of the Soviet Union
and led to
eventual victory over Nazi Germany in 1945.
Leon
Trotsky, was the founder of the Red Army, and was referred to, in letters
written by
Natalia Sedova, as “My sweet Lion cub” [Trotsky’s birth name, 'Lev',
means
“lion” in Russian, and his full birth name was: Lev Davidovich
Bronstein.]
Regarding
the prophecy, 'Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad', 'Russia has long been
one of
the superpowers in the world, and one with many different countries and
peoples. When nations come under the tribal influence of Gad, they will
be
blessed.
'Now
the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great
multitude of
cattle: and when they saw the land of Jazer, and the land of Gilead,
that,
behold, the place was a place for cattle.' The lands of Russia and
surrounding
areas are great for raising cattle.
