In his landmark 1902 book, Judah’s Sceptre And Joseph’s Birthright, J.H. Allen describes a remarkable discovery by a farmer in Denmark in the mid-17th century:
It is now more than two hundred and fifty years since a Danish peasant who, with his daughter, was following their plow in their native country, when the daughter’s plow turned up a bright and glittering something, which upon examination proved to be a golden trumpet.
It was taken to the authorities, and beyond all doubt, identified as one of the Seven Golden Trumpets used in the altar service of the Temple at Jerusalem.
This trumpet, which is now in the National Museum at Copenhagen, is ornamented with a lily and pomegranate, the lily being the national flower of Egypt and the pomegranate that of Palestine, thus showing the half Egyptian and half Israelitish origin of the birthright nation of which the tribe of Dan was part. (page 265)
The discovery of this trumpet essentially proves beyond doubt that the Danish people are direct descendants of the ancient Tribe of Dan, one of the twelve original Tribes of Jacob-Israel. This fact may explain why a hundred years after Allen’s book was written, any mention of this trumpet appears to have been scrubbed from current history books and online archives. It also explains why a search for this trumpet on the National Museum of Denmark’s website returns no results.
And keep in mind that these Seven Trumpets are also mentioned in the New Testament in the Book of Revelation, Chapter 8, “And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.”
It should be obvious why the discovery of this historic trumpet had to disappear down the memory hole. After all, we are told by “credible” so-called “experts” that all the Tribes of Israel were lost in the mists of time, except for one: the Jews. And if the Danes have a historic connection to the Temple in Jerusalem, then who are these Jews today who make the same claim? Both cannot be true; it’s one or the other. And since the 1981 edition of The Jewish Almanac candidly admits, “Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a Jew or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew,” it is safe to assume who the real Israelites are today.
uh, angel’s horn people?
I can’t determine if that’s a legit question or you are being rhetorical – in which case, I’m still not sure what point you are trying to make…please elaborate.
Allen’s tale seems a distorted account of the finding of the Migration Era drinking horn – the Golden Horn of Gallehus
“Drinking horns” wouldn’t have had pomegranates and lilies inscribed on them as ornamentation. It’s those details that set it apart from typical gold horns found in Denmark, as you describe.
Only one problen though…Hebrew is a Semitic language, while the Danes, and the Danish language, are of Indo-Aryan (White Caucasian) descent.
How can that be explained?
Language might be a red herring in this case. The ancient Israelites went through many changes after the House of Israel (Northern Kingdom), of which Dan was a part, was conquered and deported from their homeland.
There is even correspondence between the Judean high priest and the Spartans affirming their alliance based on their mutual identity as Israelites in the second temple period (second book of Maccabees). In this case language was irrelevant.
Where can I locate this correspondence? I could not imagine two less likely ethnic groups having a common origin.
Also Jews to this day have significant amounts of negro dna. Danes don’t have it.
Far more likely this trumpet was traded following spoils of war.
Jake, you’re confusing Jews today with the Judahites from 2,000 years ago, and there is no connection racially whatsoever. Today’s Jews do have negro blood, but the ancient Judahites and their Israelite brothers did not. Danes are not related to today’s “Jews”, and no one here would make such an absurd claim.
Jake I totally get your revulsion at the thought of Jews and Spartans being of the same stock. I have that same revulsion. As Mick said, the Jews today and the ancient Israelites are not of the same genetic stock. They are not the same people.
The correspondence is in the second book of Maccabees. You’ll find slightly more loose evidence therein of the same high priest writing to the Romans under the same pretext.
In 150BC the high priest John Hyrcanus conquered the mixed race nation Idumea, but instead of not allowing those of mixed race or non Whites in their midst, as is Israelite law, they allowed them to integrate.
Sadly by 70AD, the unsavory Idumeans in classic Jewish fashion made the place so intolerable the Romans had to destroy it.
The subversion of Judean royalty by these Idumeans is documented by Flavius Josephus.
Members of the Tribe of Dan were part of the larger western migrations of Scythians or Sacae (Saxons or Sons of Issac). Many of these Sacae migrated up into Europe after the fall of the Parthian Empire, of which they were a significant part.
The Parthians were largely comprised of the northern Tribes of Israel, and yes, their language was “Indo-Aryan”. But other Scythian/Sacae would have also spoken languages derived from Hebrew, and ancient language of their Israelite ancestors.
The closest European languages to Hebrew are Gaelic (Irish) and Welsh. Put side by side, their common origins are indisputable.
Easily explained. ‘Indo-Aryan’ is ‘Semitic’! You are improperly associating the true, historical and biblical, sense of ‘Semitic’ with the modern ‘jew’ who is neither a true jew (Rev.2:10 and 3:10), nor a true Semite. Semites are the descendents of Shem, Noah’s oldest son and a patriarch of the bloodline of Abraham, with whom Yahweh made his Covenant promising entire nations to be produced from his loins. Much like Hebrews are descendents of Eber, grandson of Shem…so that would make Hebrew, ‘Semitic’. So, in that same sense, since the Danes are proven to be descendants of the Israelite tribe of Dan, who were of the line of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, who were Hebrew, and therefor, Semitic…
Ever hear of Yahuda’s book, ‘Hebrew is Greek’? ANOTHER ITEM down the memory hole, by those who don’t WANT YOU TO KNOW TRUTH.

I love these historical, biblical articles. Such gems 😉
