When Israel saw Joseph's sons, he said, “Who are these?”
#genesis 48:8 #vayechi

Joseph's sons were born in exile and looked like Egyptians, but they were Israelites. They are a prophecy of two classes of Israelites whom God would draw out of the world thousands of years later: Natural Israelites lost by assimilation and children of the nations grafted into the nation by faith in Israel's King.
