ARE THE ARABS AMALEKITES?

 

It is written in Genesis 37: 25-28 that the merchants to whom Joseph was sold were Ishmaelites and were also Midianites.

 

This shows that already in the days of Joseph the Ishmaelites and the Midianites had united and become one people.

 

It is written in Judges 6: 3 that the Midianites and the Amalekites, and also the sons of the east, attacked Israel.

 

This shows that in the days of Gideon the Midianites and the Amalekites and other peoples of the East had united and become one people.

 

Also in Judges 6:33 it is written that the Midianites, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east were united as one people.

 

Also in Judges 7:12 it is written that the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east were together as one people.

 

And it is written in Judges 8:24 that the Midianites, the Amalekites, and the sons of the East were also Ishmaelites.

 

Therefore, we see that the Ishmaelites, the Midianites, the Amalekites, and the sons of the East united and became one people, which was later called the Arab people, as we see in 1 Kings 10:15, 2 Chronicles 9:14, Isaiah 21:13, Jeremiah 25:24, Ezekiel 27:21 and 30:5, 2 Chronicles 17:11 and 21:16 and 22:1 and 26:7, Isaiah 13:20, Jeremiah 3:2 and Nehemiah 2:19. and 4:7 and 6:1.

 

It is written in 1 Samuel 15:7 that the Amalekites dwelt in the region that went from Havilah going to Shur, which was in front of Egypt.

 

Havilah was in the Arabian peninsula.

 

It is written in Genesis 25:18 that the descendants of Ishmael dwelt from Havilah to Shur, which was in front of Egypt, going to Assyria.

 

Therefore we see that the Ishmaelites dwelt in the same land that was inhabited by the Amalekites, which also shows that the Ishmaelites and the Amalekites united and became one people, the Arab people.

 

Yahveh bless you.
