The Royal Line of Judah in Ireland, Scotland and England

 

Our Father in Heaven promised the Scepter will not depart from Judah; therefore, it must to be ongoing today.  Before He promised the scepter to Judah, kings were promised to Abraham and Sarah.




“Then Abram fell on his face. And God said to him, “Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations. No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham, for I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make you into nations, and kings shall come from you. And I will establish my covenant between me and you and your offspring after you throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your offspring after you.” ESV Gen 17:3-7

 

“And God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. I will bless her, and moreover, I will give you a son by her. I will bless her, and she shall become nations; kings of peoples shall come from her.”” ESV Gen 17:15-16

 

So, Abraham and Sarah must today have descendants that established many nations since this covenant was to be everlasting.  Plus, they would have had many kings come from their offspring. 

 

Below is a collection of documentation focusing on who peopled the land of Ireland and Scotland and how the throne of David came to be first in Ireland and then Scotland and then England.

 

Promises and Prophecy

 

First let us review the bible verses regarding the promises and prophecies made to the royal line of Judah and his descendant King David.  Judah is a descendant of Abraham and Sarah and was chosen to continue the Holy Royal Line.   

 

When Jacob Israel was on his death bed, he gave his sons their blessings that were to be present in the end times. 

 

“Then Jacob called his sons and said, “Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you what shall happen to you in days to come [H319 achariyth; the last or end].”” ESV Gen 49:1

 

Judah’s blessing was to be the royal line of kings and queens, including Jesus Christ. 

 

The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until tribute comes to him; and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.” ESV Gen 49:10

 

Nathan the prophet told King David that his throne would be forever.  While the David was King in Jerusalem, Nathan stated that his people would be planted in their own place – that cannot be Jerusalem since that is where the promise was made. 

 

“Now, therefore, thus you shall say to my servant David, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel.  And I have been with you wherever you went and have cut off all your enemies from before you. And I will make for you a great name, like the name of the great ones of the earth. And I will appoint a place for my people Israel and will plant them, so that they may dwell in their own place and be disturbed no more. And violent men shall afflict them no more, as formerly, from the time that I appointed judges over my people Israel. And I will give you rest from all your enemies. Moreover, the LORD declares to you that the LORD will make you a house.  When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son. When he commits iniquity, I will discipline him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men, but my steadfast love will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away from before you. And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. Your throne shall be established forever.’”  In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David.”  ESV 2Sa 7:8-17

 

Our Father in Heaven’s covenant (promise) with King David in the book of Jeremiah:

 

““Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the promise I made to the house of Israel and the house of Judah. In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous Branch to spring up for David, and he shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely. And this is the name by which it will be called: ‘The LORD is our righteousness.’  “For thus says the LORD: David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel, and the Levitical priests shall never lack a man in my presence to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices forever.” 

The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah: “Thus says the LORD: If you can break my covenant with the day and my covenant with the night, so that day and night will not come at their appointed time then also my covenant with David my servant may be broken, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and my covenant with the Levitical priests my ministers. As the host of heaven cannot be numbered and the sands of the sea cannot be measured, so I will multiply the offspring of David my servant, and the Levitical priests who minister to me.” 

The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:  “Have you not observed that these people are saying, ‘The LORD has rejected the two clans that he chose’? Thus they have despised my people so that they are no longer a nation in their sight. Thus says the LORD: If I have not established my covenant with day and night and the fixed order of heaven and earth, then I will reject the offspring of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his offspring to rule over the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and will have mercy on them.””  ESV  Jer 33:14-26

 

Every day that we witness a new morning and the sunset, we can be sure that there is a descendant of King David on the throne and that descendants of the Levites are teaching the word of God.

 

Many people believe the King of the throne today is Jesus; however, when he returns to take the throne, there will be no sun or moon.  The promise above included King David’s seed  or offspring that would rule until Jesus returns. 

 

“And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there.”  ESV Rev 21:23-25

 

“No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.” ESV Rev 22:3-5

 

Jesus is referred to as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords; therefore, there must be other Kings and Lords today. 

“I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus, who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which he will display at the proper time—he who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone has immortality, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.” 1Ti 6:13-16

 

“They will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for he is Lord of lords [G2962kurios; Lord, master, Lord's, sir, masters, owner] and King of kings [G935 basileus; a sovereign, king,ruler], and those with him are called and chosen and faithful.”  ESV Rev 17:14

 

“On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.” ESV Rev 19:16 

 

According to the bible there are ‘kings of the earth’.  They are mentioned many times.  Here are examples that even show that during the ‘end times’ of Revelation, there will be kings of the earth.

 

Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth!” ESV Psa 148:11 

“He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?”” ESV Mat 17:25 

 

And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army.” ESV Rev 19:19 

 

“By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.” ESV Rev 21:24 


Ezekiel prophecy regarding Judah’s scepter states the survivors of Israel will be scattered.  A tender twig will be planted, the verse implies elsewhere on a high and lofty mountain.

 

“Then the word of the LORD came to me:  “Say now to the rebellious house, Do you not know what these things mean? Tell them, behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took her king and her princes and brought them to him to Babylon. And he took one of the royal offspring and made a covenant with him, putting him under oath (the chief men of the land he had taken away), that the kingdom might be humble and not lift itself up, and keep his covenant that it might stand. But he rebelled against him by sending his ambassadors to Egypt, that they might give him horses and a large army. Will he thrive? Can one escape who does such things? Can he break the covenant and yet escape?  “As I live, declares the Lord GOD, surely in the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised, and whose covenant with him he broke, in Babylon he shall die. Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company will not help him in war, when mounds are cast up and siege walls built to cut off many lives.  He despised the oath in breaking the covenant, and behold, he gave his hand and did all these things; he shall not escape. Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: As I live, surely it is my oath that he despised, and my covenant that he broke. I will return it upon his head. I will spread my net over him, and he shall be taken in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon and enter into judgment with him there for the treachery he has committed against me.   And all the pick of his troops shall fall by the sword, and the survivors shall be scattered to every wind, and you shall know that I am the LORD; I have spoken.”  Thus says the Lord GOD: “I myself will take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and will set it out. I will break off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one [king’s daughter- Teia Tephi], and I myself will plant it [at Tara] on a high and lofty mountain. On the mountain height of Israel will I plant it, that it may bear branches and produce fruit and become a noble cedar. And under it will dwell every kind of bird; in the shade of its branches birds of every sort will nest. And all the trees of the field shall know that I am the LORD; I bring low the high tree, and make high the low tree, dry up the green tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the LORD; I have spoken, and I will do it.””  ESV Eze 17:11-24 

 

History reflects that the tender young twig was Tea Tephi, who was planted in Ireland fulfills this prophecy. More information will be given about Tea Tephi below. 

 

History

 

The history of the fall of Jerusalem is told in Jeremiah.  Zedekiah was king at the time when they killed his sons and brought him to prison.  They killed Zedekiah’s sons so that they could not inherit the scepter of Judah.

 

“Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. And he did what was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. For because of the anger of the LORD it came to the point in Jerusalem and Judah that he cast them out from his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.  And in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came with all his army against Jerusalem, and laid siege to it. And they built siegeworks all around it. So the city was besieged till the eleventh year of King Zedekiah. On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land. Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled and went out from the city by night by the way of a gate between the two walls, by the king's garden, and the Chaldeans were around the city. And they went in the direction of the Arabah. But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was scattered from him. Then they captured the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, and he passed sentence on him. The king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and also slaughtered all the officials of Judah at Riblah. He put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in chains, and the king of Babylon took him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.”  ESV Jer 52:1-11

 

The temple, house of the Lord, was burned and most of the people were taken captive:

 

“In the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month—that was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon—Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard, who served the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem. And he burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house and all the houses of Jerusalem; every great house he burned down. And all the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls around Jerusalem. And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive some of the poorest of the people and the rest of the people who were left in the city and the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babylon, together with the rest of the artisans. But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and plowmen.” ESV Jer 52:12-16

 

Jeremiah, his scribe Baruch, and the King’s daughters left for Egypt before the fall of Jerusalem:

 

“But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death, and carry us away captives into Babylon. So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah. But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned from all nations, whither they had been driven, to dwell in the land of Judah; Even men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters [princesses], and every person that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah. So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: thus came they even to Tahpanhes.”  ESV Jer 43:3-7

 

King Zedekiah had daughters that could inherit the throne. 

 

Royal lines of Judah, through Zarah and Pharez

 

The chart below gives a high-level overview of Judah’s descendants on the throne.  Judah’s son Zarah’s line had kings on the throne before Pharez’s line did.  Notice where it shows that Zedekiah’s daughter married into the line of kings which became the kings of Ireland, then Scotland and then England. 




Book of Tephi

 

The book of Tephi tells the story of after Jerusalem’s fall.  The Prophet Jeremiah and his scribe Baruch take King Zediakah’s daughters to Egypt.  In Egypt, Zediakah’s daughter Tea Tephi is anointed queen and the Pharaoh adopts his daughters.  From Egypt they sail to Ireland, which was called Eriu back then.  When Tea Tephi arrives in Eriu, she is taken to the Hill of Tara and married to prince Eochaid.

Below is from page 129, where she says she stood on her Stone, which would be Jacob’s Pillow or Stone of Destiny.

The Hill of Tara & the Stone of Destiny

 

According to ancient Irish history Tamar Tephi (or Tea Tephi), a daughter of King Zedekiah of Judah, married Irish King Eochaid (sometimes Heremon) at the Hill of Tara, bringing the Stone of Destiny (Lia Fáil) with her, establishing a royal lineage that connected to the British monarchy. This connects the Hebrew monarchy to Irish High Kings, with Tara becoming her chosen burial place and seat of power. 



There's a "Stone of Destiny" connection in both Ireland and Scotland because of shared Celtic legends tracing its journey from the Holy Land (Jacob's Pillow) through Egypt to Spain, then Ireland (Hill of Tara's Lia Fáil), and eventually to Scotland (Scone Abbey), serving as coronation seats for kings before Edward I took the Scottish one to Westminster, becoming a symbol of Scottish monarchy, stolen and returned.

 

The Stone of Destiny has many names as follows:

·       Jacob’s Pillow

·       Lia Fáil meaning Stone of Destiny

·       Stone of Scone when it resides in Scone, Scotland

·       The Coronation Stone which was the pillar at the coronation ceremony

 

Genesis explains how Jacob anoints the stone he had used as a pillow, and set it up for a pillar:

 

“And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.” So early in the morning Jacob took the stone that he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it.  He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.” ESV Gen 28:17-19

 

Some say that Jacob’s Pillow was the rock that water came out of:

 

“Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock at Horeb, and you shall strike the rock, and water shall come out of it, and the people will drink.” And Moses did so, in the sight of the elders of Israel.”  ESV Exo 17:6 

 

Some say they are referring to Jacob’s Pillow here also:

 

“For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, and all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ.”  ESV 1Co 10:1-4

 

Below is the account of Joash’s coronation ceremony.  It states that Joash was standing next to the pillar which was Jacob’s Pillow also known as the coronation stone.  Today the tradition of crowning a king/queen, anointing him, the crowd stating ‘Long live the king!’ and the blowing of trumpets are still apart of the coronation ceremony. 

 

“And the guards stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, from the south side of the house to the north side of the house, around the altar and the house on behalf of the king. Then he brought out the king's son and put the crown on him and gave him the testimony. And they proclaimed him king and anointed him, and they clapped their hands and said, “Long live the king!”  When Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she went into the house of the LORD to the people.  And when she looked, there was the king standing by the pillar, according to the custom, and the captains and the trumpeters beside the king, and all the people of the land rejoicing and blowing trumpets.” ESV 2Ki 11:11-14

Scotland’s Decaration of Independence

 

The Scotland Declaration of Independence explains the Scottish people’s origins.  Below are quotes from this document:

 

“One of the Treasures of the National Archives of Scotland, the Declaration of Arbroath was written to the pope in 1320, on behalf of the barons and community of the realm of Scotland. This eloquent letter, written in support of King Robert Bruce (Robert I) and an independent Scotland, is still regarded as a spirited statement of a nation's claim to freedom.”

 

Most Holy Father, we know and from the chronicles and books of the ancients we find that among other famous nations our own, the Scots, has been graced with widespread renown. It journeyed from Greater Scythia by way of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Pillars of Hercules, and dwelt for a long course of time in Spain among the most savage peoples, but nowhere could it be subdued by any people, however barbarous. Thence it came, twelve hundred years after the people of Israel crossed the Red Sea, to its home in the west where it still lives today. The Britons it first drove out, the Picts it utterly destroyed, and, even though very often assailed by the Norwegians, the Danes and the English, it took possession of that home with many victories and untold efforts; and, as the histories of old time bear witness, they have held it free of all servitude ever since. In their kingdom there have reigned one hundred and thirteen kings of their own royal stock, the line unbroken by a single foreigner.”

Who is Scota?

 

Scotia refers to a Egyptian princess in Irish/Scottish history, considered the ancestor of the Gaels and namesake of Scotland, but also to the Latin term for the Gaels (Scoti) that evolved into the name for the country. Essentially, "Scotia" is tied to ancient Gaelic origins, the naming of Scotland. Scotland initially meant Ireland, then gradually shifted to mean the Kingdom of Alba (modern Scotland) by the Middle Ages. 

 

After reviewing various histories regarding Scota, I am seeing two different histories about her.  Are they two different Scota’s?  Or is only one story, correct?

 

In some versions of the ancient Irish-Hebrew legends, Scota (or Scotia) and Tea Tephi (or Tamar) are described as sisters, daughters of King Zedekiah of Judah, brought to Ireland by the prophet Jeremiah to establish a Davidic line, though other traditions conflate them or present different origins, with Scota sometimes being a Pharaoh's daughter, highlighting confusion in these legendary accounts.  Both of the king’s daughters were probably adopted by the Pharoah of Egypt.  The Book of Tephi (above) shows that Tea Tephi was adopted by the Pharoah, so her sister Scota was probably adopted also.  They are often described as King Zedekiah's daughters, with Tea Tephi marrying an Irish king (Eochaidh/Heremon) and Scota marrying a king in Spain (Milesius). Jeremiah escorted both princesses, one to Spain (Scota) and one to Ireland (Tea Tephi).

 

In another version, Princess Scota (daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh) married Nél (Nel), a Scythian prince and scholar, a union that became foundational to the Gaels, giving them their name (Scoti) and linking their lineage to both Egypt and ancient Scythia. Their son was Goídel Glas, ancestor of the Gaels, and their story explains the origins of the Scots and Gaels, connecting them to lands like Spain and Ireland. Scota, daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh (sometimes named as a descendant of Akhenaten), and Nél, a Scythian scholar and descendant of Fénius Farsaid.

 

Fénius Farsaid was a chief at the Tower of Babel, as shown below:




Note:  All had been living where Noah’s ark landed at the mountain called Ararat (meaning sacred mountain).  Then they went to the plain of Shinar and built a tower. 

 

Reflected below is the genealogy of Fénius Farsaid.



Book source:  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1YLFnjdLUTTQ7JAxPnsIEWePmeTSXxV68/view?usp=sharing

 

So, according to the source above the Scythians were descendants of Noah’s son Japheth. 

 

Which stone is Jacob’s Pillow?

There appears to be two stones claiming to be Jacob’s Pillow.  Is it possible two different stones were brought, one for Tephi and one for Scota?  Since there were kings already present in Ireland, the pillar at the Hill of Tara may have already been there when Tea Tephi arrived in Ireland and she brought the one called the Stone of Scone with her.  The Book of Tephi above states she stood on the stone; only the one called the Stone of Scone would be easy to stand on.



 

Scota Newspaper Research

 

Below are a few newspaper articles mentioning Scota.

 

1888 The Coronation Stone

 

This article states that a Greek Prince fled with the bride.  This Greek prince was probably from the line of Zarah – Judah.

Conclusion

 

Through prophecy, history and heraldry symbols we can see where Judah’s royal line was removed to the United Kingdom.  Promises were made to Abraham, Judah, and David which will be kept until Jesus our savior returns and takes the throne.
