MICHAEL FREUND: Ezekiel is commanded by God to take two sticks. On one, he is to write "For Judah," and on the other "For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim." Then comes the crucial instruction: "Bring them together into one stick so that they become one in your hand" (37:17). Ezekiel's vision is not one of uniformity. The two sticks do not cease to be what they are. Judah remains Judah; Joseph remains Joseph. Unity does not erase difference – it sanctifies and elevates it by placing it within a larger shared destiny.

Ketriel Blad: In other words, in order for a total restoration to take place, the restored Ephraimites from among the nations will have to become Jewish, in the legal sense of the word, thus accepting the Jewish authorities and becoming obedient to Jewish halachah. In the prophecy of Ezekiel 37:19 the Hebrew text can be understood as HaShem giving Yehuda's stick the function of being over Ephraim's stick and this way both sticks will become one. This teaches us that the Ephraimite movement that comes from heaven cannot rise apart from the Jewish people without submission to the Jewish leaders' authority. This is not for all the gentiles.

Jewish Virtual Library: The term "Bukharan Jews" refers to the Central Asian Jews of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. Also, a large number of Bukharan Jews have made aliyah and have congregated in Jerusalem.

Megilla 26a, Yoma 12a: What was in the portion of Yehuda? The Temple Mount, the chambers and the courtyards. And what was in the portion of Benyamin? The Ulam (antechamber), the Holy and the Holy of Holies. And a strip comes out of the portion of Yehuda and enters the portion of Benyamin, and the altar was built on that.

וַיִּהְיוּ בְנֵי אוּלָם אֲנָשִׁים גִּבּוֹרֵי חַיִל דֹּרְכֵי קֶשֶׁת וּמַרְבִּים בָּנִים וּבְנֵי בָנִים מֵאָה וַחֲמִשִּׁים כָּל אֵלֶּה מִבְּנֵי בִנְיָמִן
Kyrgyz means “imperishable”, “inextinguishable”, “immortal”, “unconquerable”, or “unbeatable” 
The early Kyrgyz people, known as Yenisei Kyrgyz, have their origins in the western parts of modern-day Mongolia 
They were described in Tang Dynasty texts as having “red hair and green eyes” with a mixture of European and Mongol features. 
They are considered to be a people that were created by a combination of Mongol, Khitan, and Uyghur tribes. They generally have an East Asian appearance like their neighbours the Kazakhs, and in contrast to the mostly Caucasoid Tajiks and the mixed-looking Uzbeks. 
The Kyrgyz form one of the 56 ethnic groups officially recognized by the People’s Republic of China. There are more than 145,000 Kyrgyz in China. 
Russia 104,570
Kazakhstan 23,274
Uzbekistan 250,000
Kyrgyzstan 3,804,800
Tajikistan 60,000
Afghanistan 1,130
Turkey 5,000
China 145,000
They are found mainly in the Kizilsu Kirghiz Autonomous Prefecture in the southwestern part of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region 
Many ancient indigenous beliefs and practices, including shamanism and totemism, coexisted synthetically with Islam. Likewise, the Sufi order of Islam has been one of the most active Muslim groups in Kyrgyzstan for over a century. Certain segments of the Kyrgyz in China are followers of Tibetan Buddhism. 
Russians believe that the Kirghiz would be a liability in any conflict against China. The Kirghiz believe that in an upcoming war China would defeat Russia.

Jon Escudero: Half the time, you are your own worst Enemy.

Due to the recent turmoil between Lebanon and Israel, however, many have been repatriated back to the Philippines, while others have been relocated to Cyprus, a part of the Philippine evacuation plan.

NOW.: Filipino influences have yet to infiltrate the mainstream in Lebanon. Yet there are far more Filipinos here than from any other Asian country. With an estimated population of 30,000, they make up seven percent of the country’s workforce, according to a 2008 policy paper by the Kanlungan Center Foundation based in the Philippines. There are about eight or ten locales like Ilokandia that cater to the Filipino community in the Hamra area alone, and in Dora there are many more, says store owner Zakaria Al-Jizi, a Lebanese married to a Filipina he met almost 25 years ago. Indeed, a lot of the restaurants that cater to the Filipino community are run by married Filipino/Lebanese couples, and such pairings are rare examples of the two cultures integrating and collaborating, as opposed to co-existing almost entirely separately.

Alicia Jo Rabins: This song is about Hagar

The arrow leaves the bow and goes off on its own
and when the arrow’s gone the bow remains alone
My little grain of rice my little blueberry
my fig, my pear, my orange, how you grew in me

My father said to me when I was leaving home
a princess never cries even when she’s alone
So I’ll be over here and you stay over there
as long as we both breathe this unforgiving air

Baruch S. Davidson: [Avraham] gave [B'nei Keturah] the right to use the name of G‑d even when in a state of physical impurity. 
Baruch S. Davidson: [Avraham] taught [B'nei Keturah] names for their idols that would connote the tumah associated with them 
Baruch S. Davidson: [Avraham] taught [B'nei Keturah] how to protect themselves from the forces of tumah such as demons because by knowing the names of theses negative energies they would be able to instruct them to do their will and remove them.
