Why Does It Matter Where The Tribes Of Israel Are?

As stated in John 3:15-18 all who believe on Jesus Christ are saved. This applies to all people and not just those chosen by God in the Abrahamic Covenant (the Israelites) for the seed line for which Christ would come. Romans 3:29

So knowing that Christ came through the Abrahamic seed line for the purposes of saving all who would believe on Him, why does it matter now where the scattered tribes of Israel went and are? It matters because it proves God's everlasting promises are still in effect. It matters because it relays how God's plan in this 2nd earth age has played out, continues to play out, and will play out. Knowing where and when things have happened and where they will happen as His prophecy becomes reality is important and key in watching the signs, seasons, and locations.

Scattered Israel Synopsis Notes

So in my studies of various books, I have taken extensive synopsis notes. Below is a screenshot of some of my typed notes from E. Raymond Capt's Abrahamic Covenant, Jacob's Pillar, Missing Links Discovered in Assyrian Tablets, and King Solomon's Temple. It's a rough and short-handed draft of the scatterings of Israel. I am working on putting together all of my notes and studies into an easy to follow accompaniment for any student to use. In the meantime, I will be sharing with you the draft notes in case it helps your understanding. If you are interested in the pdf versions of any screenshots, I'm happy to share them with you, just e-mail me at cagib1@charter.net. Below each screenshot is the actual text, for ease of reading (purpose of screenshots is to show you how the information flows).

(from pg 60): "But, before we take up the captivity of Israel it should be noted that the dispersal of Israel had started centuries earlier than the Assyrian and Babylonian captivities of the kingdom of Israel and the kingdom of Judah."
(from pg 61): "Long before Moses led the Children of Israel out of Egypt (Exodus-1491 BC) there had been continuous migrations of Semitic Hebrews to Greece and other parts of Asia Minor and Europe. There are numerous references by the classical writers to the "Egyptian" origin of the Greeks. Hecataeus of Abdere (sixth century BC) quoted by Diodorus Siculus (50 BC (or converted 60 AD)) tells us that the Egyptians "Expelled all the aliens gathered together in Egypt. The most distinguished of the expelled foreigners followed Danaus and Cadmus into Greece: but the greater number were led by Moses into Judea." " reference pg 62 for other versions on this story....		for more on Danaus/Cadmus and other pre-captivity migrations of Israel reference the notes below in the section titled "Factoids about The Tribes"
The Northern Kingdom "Israel":		pgs 89-95 of "King Solomon's Temple by E. Raymond Capt gives a good synopsis of the "scattered tribes" wanderings….retyped in this workbook under "Synopsis" tab.
"Between 635-611 BC we know the northern Ten-Tribed Kingdom of Israel (known as the House of Israel), together with a larger portion of the southern Kingdom of Judah (known as the House of Judah) were taken into Assyrian captivity (II Kings 17:3-6).  Archaeological tablets found in excavations of the Assyrian Royal Library at Nineveh have indicated that a majority of the Israelites escaped.  Some traveled around the southern end of the Black Sea into the Danube River Valley and the Carpathian Mountains; others went by way of the Dariel Pass through the Caucasus Mountains, into the Steppes of Southern Russia.  Confirmation of the escape of Israelites from Assyrian captivity is found in the writings of the Prophet Ezra (Esdras)."

"King Solomon's Temple" by E. Raymond Capt --the following is typed from pages 89-95-- --I have bolded certain names/dates/locations as well as converted ALL dates according to Appendices 50 & 86 of the Companion Bible-- Migrations of Israel "In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah, and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes." (II Kings 17:6) The first archaeological evidence to establish a chronological link in the contacts between Assyria and Israel are found on inscriptions on the side of a limestone stele found at Nimrud, known as the "Black Obelisk."  The stone was inscribed with the records of Shalmaneser III and an illustration of the Israelite king Jehu bringing tribute to the Assyrian king.  An inscription above the illustration says:  "This is Jehu (Iaua), the son of Khumri. (Omri)" Omri in Hebrew begins with the consonant, "Agin," formerly called "Gayin: which was pronounced with a gutteral "H", that is "Gh" or "Kh".  The Israelites would have naturally pronounced Omri as "Ghomri" which became "Khumri" in Assyrian. As this inscription was executed nearly a century before the captivity of Israel, we know now the reason secular historians found no mention of the exiled Israelites in ancient records.  It was simply because the Assyrians who took the Israelites captive did not call them by that name. The next archaelogical evidence, directly related to the Israelites movements in Assyria, was found in the form of cuneiform writings on a collection of clay tablets.  They were found nearly a century ago in the excavations of Nineveh, and published in 1930.  (The Royal Correspondence of the Assyrian Empire by L. Waterman)  Their relevance to Israel was overlooked till recently because of their being in complete disorder, among some 1400 other texts. The first of the documents were Assyrian frontier post reports of 597 B. C.  They reported that the armed forces of Urartu (Ararat) were invading the district south of Lake Urmia, in Media, where the Israelites had been placed some 14 years earlier. =611 BC=Northern Kingdom's Captivity The reports went on to say that when the king of Urartu came into the land of "Gamir", the army was routed as the "Gamera" counterattacked, entered the land of Urartu and killed their commanders.  All historians agree that the "Gamera" were the same people who, thirty years later, in the reign of Esarhaddon (the Assyrian king) were called "Gimira".  Gamir is evidently a corruption of Ghomri, formed by the inversion of the final syllable -ri to -ir.  Such inversions are common in Assyrian writings. Another and later Assyrian tablet recorded that in the 2nd year of Esarhaddon the king (about 569 BC) the Gimira under their leader Teuspa, sought freedom by moving north, but the Assyrian army pursued and defeated them in the upper Euphrates district.  Nevertheless large numbers of the Israelites escaped to the shores of the Black Sea.  The Greek records refer to these Gimira as "Kimmeroii" which is translated into English as "Cimmerian." The Greek Geographer Stabo informs us the Cimmerians captured the kingdom of Phrygia about 585 BC.  Later, they twice invaded Lydia, the second time successfully, and occupied Sardis the captial (552 BC).  About 490 BC the Lydians drove the Cimmerians out of Asia Minor altogether, and they crossed the Black Sea and entered the Carpathian regions, called (in 2nd Esdras) Ar-sareth, or Mountains of Sereth. The main body of Israelites in Media accepted an alliance with Esarhaddon.  At this time the Assyrians were under attack by both the Medes and Babylonians.  The new alliance allowed the Israelites to establish colonies in Sacasene in the north and Bactria in the east. When Assyria fell in 502 BC to the Medes and Babylonians, the two colonies came under pressure from the Medes.  The main body of Israelites in Sacasene, west of the Caspian Sea, crossed the Araxes River (passing northward through the Dariel Pass in the Caucasus) and occupied the steppe regions of South Russia.  There they became known by the Greek name "Scythians." Those that had settled east in Bactria migrated still further east into Central Asia, some even as far as the borders of China.  Most of our history of this eastern division of Israelites is found in Persian inscriptoins which refer to the Israelites as "Saka" or "Sacae." The Assyrians called these colonies Gimira, but later "Iskuza", a name which may have been derived from Isaaca, or house of Isaac, the name which the Israelites called themselves.  (Amos 7:9,16) In the famous Behistun Rock tri-lingual inscriptions of Darius I (412-375 BC) the name Saka in the Persian and Elamite inscriptions is rendered Gimira in the Babylonian version. Following the fall of Nineveh in 502 BC the Assyrian Empire was split between the conquering Medes and Babylonians.  The Medes took over the territory to the north and northwest, while the Babylonians assumed control over the lands to the south and southwest. Babylon, under King Nebuchadnezzar quickly assumed the conquest of Judah.  In a series of invasions, against the Southern Kingdom of Judah, he captured and deported remnants of Israelites missed by the Assyrians.  Finally moving against Jerusalem, he fulfilled God's prophecy against Israel by capturing the city and taking the balance of the Nation of Judah to Babylon. In 429 BC when Cyrus, King of Persia overthrew the Babylonian Empire, he permitted the remnant of Judah to return to Jerusalem.  He also offered freedom for any of the Babylonians who wished to migrate with these Israelites. Between 429 and 390 BC, during the rebuilding of the Temple, the Scythian "Israelites", who had been pushed north through the Dariel Pass, began to move westward, crossing the rivers Don and Dnieper, thus coming into collision with the Cimmerian Israelites who had earlier migrated around the west of the Black Sea.  The Cimmerians were consequently driven north and west.  A small group north of the Carpathian Mountains moved into the sparsely inhabited regions of the Baltic, where the Romans called them by the abbreviated name of Cimbri.  The main body south of the Carpathian Mountains migrated as scattered bands up the River Danube arriving, near its source, in south Germany between 390 and 340 BC.  There they became known as Celts and Gauls. By the end of the 4th century BC, the Scythian "Israelites", who had established themselves in South Russia as the great and prosperous kingdom of Scythia, came under attack by a mixed non-Israelitish people of Iranian origin, called "Sarmations".  The Scythians were driven north toward the Baltic regions, pushing the Cimri ahead of them, west to Jutland and the coasts of Holland and France. As the Celts spread west and north across France, during the great Celtic expansion from Europe, some moved across the English Channel into Britain.  About 280 BC one group invaded Italy and sacked Rome.  Around 170 BC others reached Greece, and as they migrated back into Asia Minor, the Greeks called them "Galations".  This would indicate that Paul's letters to the "Galations", were to his kindred Israelites. As the Sarmation tribes now occupied "Scythia" in South Russia, there was a tendency to confuse them with the Scythians, but the Romans came up with a solution to that problem.  They intorduced the name "German" for the genuine "Scythian"; "Germanus" being the Latin word for "genuine".  Except for the outlaying districts, the name "Scythians" was dropped, in the Roman records, in favor of "Germans" and Sarmations". The Cimbri were finally driven out of their area by the "German" Scythians.  Only a residue of one group reached Spain, whereas the main body reached Italy only to be almost entirely wiped out by the Roman legions.  A few Cimbri did escape, by boat, to northern Britain to become the Picts. The Celts continued to pour into Britain to form the "bed-rock" of the British race.  One group in Spain, known as "Iberes", the Gaeilc name for Hebrews, moved into Ireland as Scots, naming the island Hibernia, a name that still exists.  Those remaining in Spain became known as Basques; others, in France, became known as Bretons. During the succeeding centries the Scythian Germans broke up into many divisions, possibly in some instances into their original Israel tribal families.  One group split off and formed the Goths, settling around the shores of the Baltic Sea.  Others became the Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Danes and Vikings; to name just a few.  Then, other Germanic tribes poured into the lands vacated by the Celts and established the Gothic nations of the Vandals, Lombards, Franks, Burgundians and Ostrogoths. Between 450 and 600 AD, some of the Angles and Saxons moved into Britain as Anglo-Saxons.  Between 850 and 1000 AD the Danes and Vikings raided the coasts of Britain, establishing some colonies, while others settled in Iceland and Greenland.  One group moved into France as Normans. The Celtic Scots of Ireland, for the most part, moved into northern Britain and established the Nation of Scotland. In this "synopsis" we have not attempted to present all the details of the migrations of the people known as "Cimmerians" and "Scythians".  This can be found in your libraries on detailed maps, produced by historians and archaeologists.  It is the ORIGIN of the Cimmerians and the Scythians, who formed the Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Germanic, Lombardic and Celtic nations, that has not been known until now.
