Israel, the people of Cannaan and captivity in Babylon
Different academics may debate a few years here and there but broadly speaking the identity of the Jews with a part of Canaan that they named Israel dates from about 1000 BC onwards. This was the point in the story at which the first great Temple of Yahweh was constructed at Jerusalem.
I keep trying to imagine what our history would be like if here in the UK we had anything like the same historic perspective on our land......mapping out the tribes of Britain, 1000 BC. Hmmm.
