The Gauls made themselves known by the fifth century BCE. In the fourth century BCE they are recognized that they had the trade routes between east and west Europe. To say that the Gauls pushed eastward would be putting a political spin on History. The question is, who are the Gauls? But yes the Gaul invaded Macedonia and Turkey. The Galatians was still around in the days of the Apostle Paul.
After the Punic wars, (Western Phoenicia and Rome) Rome was at war with the Gauls. Greater Gaul had lost almost everything to Rome by 50 BCE. But, who are the Gauls?
Galicia Spain is on the Northwest part of Spain. Their history dates back to 600 BCE. About 19 BCE, Galicia Spain was controlled by Rome.
Galicia between Poland and the Ukraine is at the crossroads between central and eastern Europe. Rome never took this area. Rome's army was at is best on flat land, however the Scythian nomadic warriors was to much for them. These Scythians were Archers on horseback. The question is, why didn't Rome invade the Ukrainian farmland? Why did they only stay in one city? It's my opinion they would loose everything in a war with the Scythians. At the Battle of Histria, Roman troops was massacred by the Bastarnian-Scythian attackers. Gaius Antonius Hybrida the second son of Marcus Antonius, fled for his life protected by the Roman cavalry, leaving the infantry to die.
The Galatians established themselves by a Gaelic invasion, of what is now modern day Turkey. (Celtic Gauls c. 278-277 BCE.) It would be called Galatia. It's in a region of north-central Anatolia. The Apostle Paul wrote a letter to these Celtic Gaul descendants. Galatians 6:16 brings up an interesting argument.
"And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God." KJV
It could be written this way. Whosoever conforms according to this rule, peace be on to them, and mercy, and towards Israel Yahuah.
So did the Apostle Paul call the Celtic Gaul descendants Israel? I believe he did if they confirm according to Yahusha. They are a branch cut off, grafted back on again. Judah cut themselves off of the fulfillment of the Torah and Prophets.
Paul mentioned the Scythians in Colossians 3:11. We must admit that the Scythians are also called Saka and they lived just north of where the Assyrians took the Northern Israelites. Isaac is similar to sak as in Saka. Isaac is also similar to Sax, as in Sax-son (Isaac's sons). Gael and Galicia could come from the name Galilee. GA'AL in Hebrew is to say, to redeem, act as kinsman-redeemer, avenge, revenge, ransom, do the part of a kinsman. In English the Hebrew letter Aleph is replaced incorrectly with the English letter E. Aleph is the first Hebrew letter and at one time it looked like the letter A, but turned to look like a Bull with horns. Who are the Gauls? They are Northern Israelites. They sinned and was taken Northern Assyria. They melted into the people North of Assyra. They moved east and west, east to Mongolia and west to the Iberian peninsula. You could say the Northern Israelites controlled the Silk Road. You could say Rome could not defeat the Northern Israelites from Scotland to Mongolia.
"Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all."
