Shalom, R. Hartono.

This is GREAT news! This is one of the ten original tribes of Northern Israel!

For those who don't know, it is the tribe listed in the KJV as "Manasseh!" ("Bnei" is one way to transliterate the plural construct of the word meaning "Sons"; therefore, the correct verb would be "are returning.")

I think one possibility is that a representation of all the tribes will return to fulfill the 12,000 sealed from each tribe according to Revelation.  However, keep in mind that while some of these people may be from Manasseh, the actual number of "lost" tribe members is a vast multitude to keep promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. (I put that in quotes because they are only lost to mankind).  As a matter of fact, brother Joseph became a Gentile in Egypt where his brothers did not even recognize him so that in prophecy the same people were to become a multitude of nations.  So my point is that while these may be from Manasseh, and while we need some Israelites to rejoin with the Jews for end times to occur, the vast multitude will return later under Messiah.  This is a "man-made" return to culminate in the New Temple and ultimately the false Messiah aka Antichrist before our real Lord returns.

While the Bible pieces together the end times, I like 2 Esdras 13 that states plainly regarding Messiah's gathering of His people:

And whereas thou sawest that he gathered another peaceable multitude unto him

40Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land in the time of Osea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters, and so came they into another land.

41But they took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country, where never mankind dwelt,

42That they might there keep their statutes, which they never kept in their own land.

43And they entered into Euphrates by the narrow places of the river.

44For the most High then shewed signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over.

45For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth.

The Bible speaks of Israel finding grace in the wilderness, and from that indicates the grace of God, i.e. becoming Christian, thus keeping statutes as 2 Esdras states.   There are myriads of scripture that speak on the fascinating fate of Israel but space here does not permit me unless one wants me to quote many verses and write a 100-page book.
