The real matter of reparations is not a modern invention of governments or activists but a truth anchored in the covenant Word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). The same promises that declared judgment on the oppressors of Yashar’al also guaranteed that His people would not leave empty-handed, but with wealth restored as a sign of His justice. This is not a plea for charity, nor is it a political bargain, but the fulfillment of prophecy. When the seed of Abram was told they would endure four hundred years of affliction in a land not theirs, it was also declared with certainty that they would depart with great possessions.
Thus, reparations are not optional—they are covenant justice, the restoration of what was robbed, the promise of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) to restore what the locust and the worms have eaten as it is written in Yo’al (Joel) 2:25—and the vindication of a people chosen by the Most High. The ships of Tarshish carrying back silver and gold, the offerings of the seed of Yishma’al, and the judgment of the oppressing nations together reveal that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) Himself is the One who oversees the repayment.
Yet in the nations of captivity, lies have been sown to confuse and cheapen this promise. The deception of “forty acres and a mule” was never covenant restoration but a fleeting gesture, dangled before a broken people and then quickly snatched away. It was designed not to restore but to pacify, to keep the descendants of the afflicted chasing after crumbs while the true wealth remained in the hands of the oppressors. It was a lie meant to bind the oppressed to a perishing inheritance, chasing farmland and animals while the real promise of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) was that His people would depart with great possessions—silver, gold, and wealth that cannot perish. The rebels who still hold on to these false promises are trapped in the snare of what is earthly and fading, blind to the everlasting restoration that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) has sworn.
Tarshish, who is among the prophetic fulfillment, first appears in the genealogies of Barashiyth (Genesis), where it is written in Barashiyth (Genesis) 10:2–4 that the sons of Yapheth were Gomar, Magog, Madai, Yawan, Tubal, Mashak, and Tiras, and the sons of Yawan were Alishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. This places Tarshish as a direct descendant of Noach through Yapheth, through Yawan, the ancestor of the maritime peoples. From the beginning Tarshish is identified as a nation of the seas, a people with ships, trade, and wealth, inhabiting the distant coastal lands at the edge of the known world.
Throughout Scripture Tarshish is repeatedly tied to riches and seafaring power. 1 Malakiym (Kings) 10:22 records that the king had at sea a fleet of ships of Tarshish with the fleet of Hi ram, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks. 2 DivraYamim (Chronicles) 9:21 repeats this testimony. Tahilliym (Psalms) 48:7 declares that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) breaks the ships of Tarshish with an east wind, showing His sovereignty over even the strongest maritime nations. YashaYAHU (Isaiah) 2:16 speaks of His judgment coming upon all the ships of Tarshish and their beautiful vessels. These passages anchor Tarshish as a people of ships, trade, and distant wealth.
Historically Tarshish is associated with the western seacoasts, particularly southern Spain in the region of Tartessos, though their influence and colonies reached into North Africa and other distant lands. They symbolize seafaring powers that had the ability to carry goods and people across vast waters. They were not covenant people themselves, but 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) declared their role in the plan for His chosen.
YashaYAHU (Isaiah) 60:9 gives the end-time promise with certainty: surely the islands look to Me, and the ships of Tarshish are among the first, bringing your sons from far away, with their silver and gold, to the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) your AL’uah, the Qodash One of Yashar’al, for He has honored you. Here the people of Tarshish are compelled to serve in the restoration of the scattered tribes. They carry the exiles, not empty-handed, but with silver and gold, reversing the robbery of captivity and demonstrating that the wealth of the nations must serve the covenant people. This gathering is directly tied to the greater promise in YashaYAHU (Isaiah) 49:22 where it is written, “Thus says 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) AL’uah: Behold, I will lift up My hand to the nations and raise My banner to the peoples; they will bring your sons in their arms and carry your daughters on their shoulders.” The lifting of the banner is the sign to the nations that they can no longer resist His command, and it is this banner that summons Tarshish to use their ships in service to the covenant people. The banner is both a proclamation and a command, a divine signal that brings the distant tribes home with wealth and honor restored.
This is how the last exodus will take effect, not a flight under Pharaoh but a gathering by the command of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). It is the greater exodus that the prophets spoke of, and it comes with both promise and warning. ZakarYAHU (Zechariah) 13:8–9 declares that two-thirds of the people will be cut off and perish, but one-third will be brought through the fire, refined as silver is refined, and tested as gold is tested. The sobering truth is that not all of the tribes will survive this judgment. Only the remnant who submit to the covenant will be gathered in the final exodus, while the rebellious will perish before the deliverance. This warning must be declared so that no one is deceived into thinking the promise applies without obedience. The end-time exodus is certain, but it is reserved for the remnant who call on the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) in truth.
This promise of return and restoration is also directly connected to the covenant word given to Abram in Barashiyth (Genesis) 15:13–14, where 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) declared, “Know certainly that your seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them, and they shall afflict them four hundred years. And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge, and afterward shall they come out with great possessions.” This prophecy has been misunderstood by many to apply to Mitsrayim (Egypt), but the math proves otherwise. The sojourning and affliction in Egypt did not last four hundred years; the text of Shamuth (Exodus) 12:40–41 shows that the total sojourn of the children of Yashar’al in Mitsrayim was four hundred thirty years, not their affliction. The actual oppression was far shorter. Thus, the four hundred years declared to Abram points to a latter-day affliction of his seed in a foreign land, where they would be strangers, afflicted, enslaved, and afterward delivered with possessions restored.
When we examine the timeline with care, it becomes clear. Yahusaph (Joseph) entered Mitsrayim as a young man around the age of seventeen (Barashiyth (Genesis) 37:2). He lived to the age of one hundred ten (Barashiyth (Genesis) 50:22). During his life and the years of his rule, the children of Yashar’al were not under affliction but rather enjoyed favor in Goshen under his provision. The clock of affliction did not begin when they entered the land but after the death of Yahusaph and his brothers. Shamuth (Exodus) 1:8 records, “Now there arose a new king over Mitsrayim, who did not know Yahusaph.” It was in that generation that bondage and harsh affliction began. From the death of Yahusaph until the exodus, the time of harsh slavery spanned several generations but not four hundred years. The true four hundred years began, as 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) told Abram, with the arrival of his seed as strangers in lands not theirs, a pattern that reached its fullest measure in the captivity of the latter days.
From 1619 to 2019 marks four hundred years of the trans-Atlantic captivity of the seed of Yashar’al, brought in ships to a land not theirs, afflicted under heavy oppression. This fits precisely the word given to Abram. And just as 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) promised, the judgment of the oppressing nation is certain, and the children of Yashar’al will leave with great possessions, not by their own strength but by the decree of the covenant. This is the wealth returned, the silver and gold carried by the ships of Tarshish, the offerings brought by the seed of Yishma’al, all of it converging in the end-time restoration. It is not Egypt that is in view, but the great captivity of the latter days, and the certainty of deliverance at the appointed time.
In the same prophecy the seed of Yishma’al is also shown to participate. YashaYAHU (Isaiah) 60:6–7 declares that herds of camels will cover the land, young camels of Midian and Aphah, and all from Shaba will come, bearing gold and incense and proclaiming the esteem of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). All Qadar’s flocks will be gathered, the rams of Nabaioth will serve, and they will be accepted on His altar. These names, Qadar and Nabaioth, are sons of Yishma’al as given in Barashiyth (Genesis) 25:13. Their offerings and wealth join the restoration, bringing livestock and resources to Yarushalayim, while Tarshish provides the ships that carry the children of Yashar’al with their treasures.
This also demands that we recognize the truth of who the ancient nations are in today’s terms. The descendants of Yapheth’s lines manifest in recognizable peoples: the Greeks are from Yawan, the Spaniards from Tarshish or Tartessos, the Russians and Scythians from Magog, Meshech, and Tubal, the Medes and Persians from Madai who later mixed with Sham’s line, and the western maritime powers who ruled the seas are from these same branches. This recognition exposes that those called Ishmaelites in the latter days intertwine with these Yaphethite powers, showing how their seed collaborates in end-time prophecy.
To answer plainly, the Ishmaelites today are found among the Arab peoples of the Middle East and North Africa, the direct descendants of Yishma’al the son of Abram. From Qadar, Nabaioth, and Shaba have risen the tribes and nations that occupy the Arabian Peninsula and beyond, who carry the wealth of camels, flocks, and resources. They are distinct from Yapheth’s seed yet prophetically linked, as YashaYAHU shows their role in bringing offerings in the end. It must also be made clear that Yishma’al is the father of the people who later became Islam, and from his lineage rose the prophet Muhammad. This connection explains why the Arab peoples identify through Yishma’al and why their religious heritage stems directly from him.
It must be further made clear that the people of Islam, descended from Yishma’al, are today flooding European nations through mass migration, bringing with them their belief and culture as part of prophetic fulfillment. This movement of Ishmael’s seed into the heart of Europe is not accidental but tied to judgment, as also revealed in 2 Esdras where the dragon of Arabia stirs and brings destruction. The prophetic word in 2 Esdras 15:28–33 speaks of the dragons of Arabia marching with many chariots, frightening nations, and causing fear among them. This shows that the spread of Yishma’al’s seed into foreign lands is both a sign of the times and a sign of judgment upon the rebellious nations that have exalted themselves against 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). It also fulfills the word of YarmiYAHU (Jeremiah) 51:14, where He declared, 'I will fill you with men as with locusts, and they shall raise a shout against you.' The influx of these peoples into Europe and the West is like a swarm of locusts, overwhelming and unstoppable, serving as an instrument of judgment permitted by 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH).
Thus, the prophetic picture is not symbolic speculation or conspiracy, but the revealed plan of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). Tarshish, descendants of Yawan from Yapheth, are the seafaring nations that will be compelled to return the scattered tribes of Yashar’al with silver and gold in hand. Yishma’al’s seed will contribute to their wealth and flocks. Nations that once exalted themselves in trade and conquest will bow to the purpose of restoration, for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) alone rules over history. The certainty of this prophecy is that the children of Yashar’al—and sojourners who love the name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH)—will be gathered from the ends of the earth, their wealth restored, their enemies humbled, and the House of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) exalted as all nations flow to it in the final redemption.
