Bible Institute - Biblical Prophecy - BP-009

Why and when did Israel change from being a "Patriarchal" society (following the father's line to prove that they were Jewish), to today, where they are a "Matriarchal" society (following the mother's line to prove that they are Jewish)? Most Jews do not even know "why" or "when" that switch was made. Many liberal Jews try to make the case that their lineage has always been matriarchal, but that is easily proven false from the Bible. The first prophecy given in the Bible about the coming Savior, reveals this mystery!
