"Reuben was the firstborn of Israel. The children of Reuben were: of Hanoch, the family of the Hanochites; of Pallu, the family of the Palluites; of Hezron, the family of the Hezronites; of Carmi, the family of the Carmites. These are the families of the Reubenites: those who were numbered of them were forty-three thousand seven hundred and thirty," Numbers 26:5-7, NKJV. #BiblicalFamilies
While God instituted the structure of families among all of mankind, who are created in the image of God, there was only one on earth with whom He has 'known' or cared for, which was the nation of Israel; however now, a new family of heaven has been birthed, composed of all believers made alive by faith in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
