 Biblical Geographical Evidence 

Zebulon (the Dutch) and the Sea-Shores


Shores of the Sea

Isaiah speaks of sea-goers:

  [Isaiah 42:10]
"SING UNTO THE LORD A NEW SONG, AND HIS PRAISE FROM THE END
OF THE EARTH, YE THAT GO DOWN TO THE SEA, AND ALL THAT IS THEREIN; THE ISLES, AND THE INHABITANTS THEREOF".

The Lost Ten Tribes had to be a sea-faring nation or include sea-farers as we have seen.  We shall also note the
connection of  The Lost Ten Tribes with Tarshish and with ships plying the Atlantic Ocean, and of Israelites being in "many water".

In addition to the above we have the fact that specific tribes were also described as sea-goers.

Dan was referred to as someone who dwells in ships.

[Judges 5:17]
"AND WHY DID DAN REMAIN IN SHIPS? ASHER CONTINUED ON THE SEA
SHORE, AND ABODE IN HIS BREACHES".

In the Hebrew it says that Dan dwelt in ships. The point about Asher as dwelling on the sea-shore and "in his breaches [Hebrew: "Mifratsav"] may also be understood to say that Asher dwelt on his sailing boats. We will speak more on this elsewhere. In our book "Lost Israelite Identity" we have a whole chapter dedicated to the seafaring activities of the Ancient Israelites and several more chapters  that discuss aspects related to this kind of activity.

Concerning Zebulon it was prophesied:

[Genesis 49:13]
"ZEBULUN SHALL DWELL AT THE HAVEN OF THE SEA; AND HE SHALL BE FOR AN HAVEN OF SHIPS; AND HIS BORDER SHALL BE UNTO ZIDON".


Zebulon settled in the Netherlands [Holland], see The Tribes. The expression translated above (from the KJ) as "THE HAVEN OF THE SEA" in Hebrew is "Chof [pronounced as "Hof"] Yamim" meaning at the seashores or at the shore of the seas. I/3 of Holland is below sea-level, another 1/3 is subject to periodic sea-flooding, i.e. 2/3 of the country needs protection (in the form of dykes, dams, etc) from sea-inundation, i.e. they are dwelling on the shores of the sea. This is the only country in the world where this holds true. In Ancient Times a people recorded by Ptolemy called Sabulingoi dwelt in the region of Northern Holland-Frisia. "Sabulingoi" in  Hebrew means "People of Zebulon". Northern peoples at that time switched "s"  for "z". Other peoples who settled in the area bore names similar to those of clans of Zebulon (Sered, Elon, Yahleel) recorded in the Bible. Accepting the fact that Zebulon settled in Holland and that many of the Dutch descend from Zebulon entails recognition of their kinfolk (such as the Angles) as being of similar Israelite origin.

Poem: Zebulon
Zebulon means "Dwell in Strength"
Holland stretches sea-length
Protected by wall and dam
From Oceanic battering ram,
Against rising sea and flood.
They are of Israelite blood.
Many Living behind the dyke
Guarded from waters' strike.
Dwelling on Shores of the Sea
A people proud and free.

This is the land of Zebulon
Sered, Elon, and Yachli-el
Sea-shores they built on
Living fine and quite well
Scenes of  sea and wind-mill
With Stork-bird of long bill
Fields of colored tulip-flowers
Nation of hidden powers
On the Rhine their towers.

In the north the Sabulin-goi
Once laid their national claim
Their children to find fame
With their ports employ
Sailors shouting, Land ahoy!
They sailed over the seas
Both to rule and appease.

With the Jews in Amsterdam
Pictured by Painter Rembrandt
Praying in Synagogue chant
Fellow Children of Abraham.
Ships in port of Rotterdam
Speakers of Puritan cant
Preachers of Gospel rant
In Frisia they saved Jews
From German Nazi claws.
Belief in a common cause
Of Bible and Torah Laws.
Sailors drinking booze
Children in wooden shoes.

This is all the Netherland
Founded on sea and sand.
From here went the Boers
To the Land of Kruger Rand
South Africa they did found
To keep their Ancestral Lores
Ever Faithful without pause.
To work and till the ground.

HaShem be with Zebulon
Let us all try to get along.
Psalm to sing as with song.
The Almighty depend upon.
