La dichiarazione di Arbroath afferma le origini ebraiche del popolo scozzese (Section I):</br>
:{{quote|''"Most Holy Father and Lord, 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. They 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 tribes, but nowhere could they be subdued by any race, however barbarous. Thence they came, twelve hundred years after the people of Israel crossed the Red Sea, to their home in the west where they still live today. The Britons they first drove out, the Picts they utterly destroyed, and, even though very often assailed by the Norwegians, the Danes and the English, they took possession of that home with many victories and untold efforts; and, as the historians of old time bear witness, they have held it free of all bondage 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."''}}.</br>
ildocumento quindi parla di una migrazione dalla [[Scizia]] (odierna [[Ucraina]]) alle isole britanniche attraverso il mar Tirreno, le Colonne d'Ercole (Gibilterra) e la Spagna, circa 1200 dopo la traversata degli Ebrei sul Mar Rosso (l'[[Esodo]] dall'Egitto), tramite una discendenza ininterrotta di 130 regnanti. Essendo l'Esodo datato nel IX secolo a.C., la migrazione nelle isole britanniche sarebbe collocata fra il II e III secolo dopo Cristo.
