ASHER

Jacob: Gen. 49:20: " Bread from Asher is rich, and he gives delicacies of a sovereign." Moshe Rabainu: Deut. 33:24: "Asher is most blessed of sons. Let him be accepted by his brothers and dip his foot in oil. Your sandals are iron and bronze and your strength as your days."

Comments: Asher means rich in Hebrew. Today’s descendents of Asher can be found among Jews, Christians and even Arabs, who intermingled with Israelites. Through a variety of business transactions these business people have attained great wealth and financial success. The financial blessing of Asher far exceeds all other tribes, as well as many earthly kings and queens. Even their shoes are of designer quality. They tend to live longer lives, full of vitality than do their brothers in Israel. Asherites are a vital part of Israel’s restoration, as they are being called to fund that restoration materially and should not be looked upon with jealousy by other Israelites. Many Asherites are found in the oil business or in oil related industries. He dips his feet in oil trades. The late oilman Leon Hess and George Bush Sr. would be possible examples of Asher.
