Commentaries:
When God uses the term "Ephraim," He may be referring to the actual family of Ephraim, but it is more likely that He is using it as He uses the term "Jerusalem": for the whole country. Ephraim represents or symbolizes the ten northern tribes, Israel as distinct from Judah, because Ephraim was its leading tribe.
