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.
