Tribe of Israel record that man accepting Egyptian god (7)

I believe the answer is:

ephraim

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tribe of israel' is the definition.
'ephraim' can be an answer for 'tribe' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'of israel' bit.

'record that man accepting egyptian god' is the wordplay.
'record' becomes 'EP' (abbreviation for extended play record).
'that man' becomes 'him' (I've seen this before).
'accepting' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters are accepted).
'egyptian god' becomes 'ra' (Ra is an example).
'him' enclosing 'ra' is 'hraim'.
'ep'+'hraim'='EPHRAIM'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ephraim that I've seen before include "tribe" , "Biblical people" , "Joseph's lad" .)
