The Lost 10 Tribes of Israel.  What happened to them?  Where are they now?  There have been six major times Israel has been scattered and gathered.  The first was by famine, when the brothers of Joseph, who sold him into Egypt, went to Egypt to escape famine in Israel.  The Exodus is the story of their return or gathering in Israel.  The second major scattering was in 722 BC when the Neo-Assyrians conquered the Northern Kingdom of Israel and led about 40,000, approximately 20 percent of the 200,000 or so of the 10 Tribes into captivity.  The other 80 percent stayed behind or fled into the southern kingdom of Judah.  The lost 10 Tribes are not lost in the sense they are gone, but they have for the most part lost their identity as the 10 Tribes.  Most Christians and some Jews believe the Lost 10 Tribes with be gathered in the last days, meaning they will be converted, prior to the second coming of Jesus (Christian) or the coming of the Messiah (Jewish).
