It was also established that there were several important Hebrew/Israelite/Jewish migrations to the Kingdom of Iberia, separated by varying intervals. The first migration was the proto-type Iberians (Hebrews / Wanderers / Crossovers) from Eber, Abram, Isaac and Jacob’s children. Jacob’s grandfather Abram must also have had the J Haplogroup due to the lineage. These migrated to Iberia any time from 2000 BC. This is mentioned by the Georgians’ own historical writings, the chronicles of Kartlis Tskhovreba, the History of Georgia, assuming that is from the lineage of Eber, Abraham, Isaac and then Jacob. These were none other than the Scythians and Cimmerians, also known as the Saka and Gimeri. The second migration was the Ten Tribe Israelites from King Solomon’s Empire and the captives later during the 8th century BC from Assyria and the cities of Mede to 'Arsareth'. This is confirmed by the Books of Esdras. These Ten Tribers were also called 'Saka and Gimeri' after their Israelite brothers in the Caucasus area. The Israelites that stayed behind in Assyria and the cities of Mede were known later as the Parthians. They were all offspring from Jacob and had Jacob’s DNA. The third migration was the Jews from the Tribe of Judah, from Israel to Iberia / Kartli / Mtskheta / Herki in the heart of the Arsareth area. This was at the time of the capture of Jerusalem by the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar, around 586 BC. At this time the Ten Tribers were already deported and relocated to Arsareth, with only Judah and Benjamin and some minority members of Asher and the other tribes left in Israel. Judah definitely has the strong presence of the DNA J2 haplogroup already discussed under “Gentics”.

The Georgian chronicles Kartlis Tskhovreba, the Life of Kartli, indicates that after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD 70, a large group of Jews came to Kartli and settled in Mtskheta near Jews who had already settled there. That is a reference to the Ten Tribers in Mtskheta who came to the location called Arsareth before Judah arrived. In addition, the size of the Hebrew population is not given in the Georgian sources, although according to the chronicles Kartlis Tskhovreba, their numbers were so large and their language so widely distributed that Georgians spoke "Jewish" as well as Georgian. The same source says that Hebrew and Aramaic was one of the six conversational languages formerly spoken in Iberia. For Hebrew to be accepted as a state language required masses of people. Historically, Jews in Georgia lived together but set apart from the rest of the population in one village or "quarter," where their houses of worship and places of social and cultural significance were located. Schools of Jewish scribes, translators, and Rabbis were widely known; the Mtskheta religious community commanded particular respect. Mtskheta was, with its sanctuaries, the center of Georgian Judaism. Legend and historical writings state that it was here that the tallitot of Prophet Elijah and Yeshua were buried, having been brought from Jerusalem by Mtskheta Jews. From here many of them will migrate further into the unknown world…


Let’s now go back to where we started and read the Chronicle writings of 2 Esdras chapter 13 again:
29 Behold, the days come, when the most High will begin to deliver them [from bondage] that are upon the earth.
30 And he shall come to the astonishment of them that dwell on the earth.
31 And one shall undertake to fight against another, one city against another, one place against another, one people against another, and one realm against another.
32 And the time shall be when these things shall come to pass, and the signs shall happen which I shewed thee before, and then shall my Son be declared, whom thou sawest as a man ascending.
33 And when all the people hear his voice, every man shall in their own land leave the battle they have one against another.
34 And an innumerable multitude shall be gathered together, as thou sawest them, willing to come, and to overcome him by fighting.
35 But he shall stand upon the top of the mount Sion.
36 And Sion shall come, and shall be shewed to all men, being prepared and builded, like as thou sawest the hill graven without hands.
37 And this my Son shall rebuke the wicked inventions of those nations, which for their wicked life are fallen into the tempest;
38 And shall lay before them their evil thoughts, and the torments wherewith they shall begin to be tormented, which are like unto a flame: and he shall destroy them without labour by the law [Torah] which is like unto me.
39 And whereas thou sawest that he gathered another peaceable multitude unto him [from the corners of the earth];
40 Those are the ten tribes, which were carried away prisoners out of their own land [Israel] in the time of Hosea the king, whom Salmanasar the king of Assyria led away captive, and he carried them over the waters [Jordan and Euphrates Rivers], and so came they into another land [Assyria and the Mede cities].
41 But they took this counsel among themselves, that they would leave the multitude of the heathen, and go forth into a further country [where the known Assyrian controlled world at the time ended, to the land north which their Scythian brothers dominated: Iberia/Colchis, modern-day Georgia], where never mankind dwelt [Arsareth at that time was secluded in the dark clouded mountains from the rest of the known world],
42 That they might there keep their statutes [Torah], which they never kept in their own land.
43 [Now the journey starts…] And they entered into Euphrates by the narrow places of the river.
44 For the Most High then shewed signs for them, and held still the flood, till they were passed over.
45 For through that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half [by foot carrying all their belongings and taking their families with them]: and the same region is called Arsareth [starting at the Arsiani Mountain range all the way north to the Greater Caucasus Mountains].
46 Then dwelt they there until the latter time [Israelites will stay here till the last days as proven by the DNA
haplogroups of the Georgians]; and now when they shall begin to come,
47 The Highest shall stay the springs of the stream again, that they may go through: therefore sawest thou the multitude with peace.
48 But those that be left behind of thy people [Asher and the other Tribal members that stayed with Judah] are they that are found within my borders [in Israel already]. (2 Esdras 13:29–48.)

Facts derived from 2 Esdras chapter 13:
1) the Most High will begin to deliver them [first out of bondage],
2) one shall undertake to fight against another, meaning it will be during a time of conflict,
3) signs shall happen which I shewed thee before,
4) then shall my Son be declared, Moshiach,
5) innumerable multitude shall be gathered together, willing to come and to overcome Moshiach by fighting,
6) Moshiach shall stand upon the top of the mount Sion,
7) Moshiach shall destroy them without labour by the law,
8) Moshiach will gather another peaceable multitude unto him,
9) those are the Ten Tribes,
10) who were carried over the waters, it is the Jordan’s upper and lower rivers, 11) into another land Assyria and the Cities of Mede. Then later from here to the north, west and eventually to Sinim,
12) they counselled among themselves first that they would leave the multitude of the heathen in Assyria and Mede due to Jonah’s influence. [Only after arriving in Assyria and Mede then they counselled amongst these heathens to leave them for a better place to return to the Great God of Israel’s ways],
13) to go in a further country, where never mankind dwelt, they went further from Assyria and Mede into 'another country' and where they settled in a new area/piece of land [point 15] where nobody dwelled and where they would not be oppressed. [We have already established that the 1,5 year journey by foot brings us to the geographical area of modern-day Georgia],
14) then they returned to the Euphrates and entered into it by the narrow places of the river, meaning they first actioned this plan to leave and then crossed the Euphrates River again by its narrow areas,
15) that country there was a great way to go, namely, of a year and a half: and the same region is called Arsareth [this new country of settlement took a tribe 1,5 years by foot to reach. This was called 'Arsareth' in Hebrew], and
16) they were there until the latter time, this is the Tribes in the form of Joseph, in dress and culture, a non-Jewish look, and they are still present in this geographical area and will remain there till the latter times. DNA proved this!
