This reminds me of something my brother told me from when he served a mission in Scotland. There was a legend some of the people shared with him there about how Jesus had visited Great Britain, during that gap of time between ages 12 and 30, to sit on the Stone of Destiny that has been a feature of the British coronation chair--the throne of David.

In his book, “The United States and Britian in Prophecy”, Herbert W Armstrong of the World Wide Church of God, presents an interest theory. Using scripture, history, and mythology, he claimed that, after the kingdom of Judah was conquered by the Babylonians, Jeremiah and a daughter of King Hezekiah immigrated to Ireland. There she married the king’s son. This royal family later became the royal house of Scotland and later, the royal house of England. Also, in Hebrew, “brit” is “covenant” and “ish” is “man”. The word “British” literally means “Covenant Man.”
