Going through the Old Testament and finding lines that damn the current tribe has become something of a pass-time for me in my biblical studies. One of my favorites that came up a few months ago comes from 1 Kings 9, where God blesses Solomon right after the temple is done and gives a warning about how their people will be reviled and cursed upon the Earth forever if they turn aside from God and revel in sin again. It's a great example of why they continue to suffer and be hated when treated fairly with everyone else, especially when talking with small hat worshiping evangelicals.
