Ok heres one link to Celtic-Jewish origin.
The HUGE problem with this subject is that Celtic history has effectivell been obliterated by what we now know as history and the Romans did a great
job of it.
Whats left is putting together pieces of soemthing generations and eras of peoples tried to destroy. NOT an easy fact, even with google the history is
so porrly known and to so few people know it theres not so much information to be found on google.
Anyway this link is a good starting point, I think this is one of the links I first found and followed from there looking at the history of the stones
in persia, the langauge and the gods. (The Celtci god Anu (also known as Danan, or Dana, is tha same as the sumerian sun god Anu)
Also be caustious because although the evidence is there, even now it is being twisted in favor of certain faiths. For example this link im giving you
provides evidence BUT the author is trying to suggests that Celts were Hebrews, obviously a very pro Jewish concept of which the evidence is HIGHLY
contradictory because the Celts and druids were PAGAN and many of their gods were banned under catholicism and judaism. Paganism pre dates BOTH
judaism and catholicism and indeem Islam.

Thats the link but ill quote some interesting parts which piqued my interest at the time.
'That most common of all Celtic monuments, the Cromlech is to be found not only in most parts of Europe, but also in Asia,' including Palestine.
'Not less ancient and general among the Celtic nations, was the circle of upright stones, with either an altar or tall pillar in the centre, and,
like its prototype at Gilgal [ancient Israel], serving sometimes as a temple of worship, sometimes as a place of national council or inauguration ...
Heres a contrast of early Pheonitian language and Celtic language, i think its very telling.
In Pheonetian
Byth lym mo thym nociothii nel ech an ti daisc machon
In Irish Celtic:
Beth liom' mo thime nociaithe, niel ach an ti dairie mae coinne
Almost identical.
Modern language scholars have confirmed that there is a definite connection between the Celtic and Hebrew, as we have shown in our tract, Hebrew
And English.
Again be cautious because although Hebrew is claimed by the Jews, it actually predates jews and the jewsih faith and goes back to PAGAN origins (most
likely what later became known as Celtics, or the druids who mirated to form them).
In the Bible, the prophet Jeremiah in chapter 3l verse 21 instructed scattered Israel to “set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps,” and
thus we find a trail of unhewn stone monuments, called dolmens, menhirs, and cromlechs, leading from Palestine (Gen. 35:14, etc.) across Europe, and
into the British Isles, where they were used in worship by the Druidic priests. In England, according to Isabel Hill Elder’s book, “Celt, Druid,
and Culdee,” each stone monument was called a “Si’on” in the ancient Celtic language. The similarity between this and the Hebrew word
“Zion”, meaning a stone fortress, is striking. Truly, these are additional witnesses to the identity of the House of Israel in the world
today.
Again its critical to be aware that pagnism in the Celtic form was killed off and even modern studies, those who choose to look are weighted to being
religious minded people who are looking to make their own case.
You need to attach the druid and celtic connection first to hebrew, pheonetian, and then trace back into paganism to see the evolution from paganism
into hebrew and judaism. Its very hard with very little to go on. Kind of like UFO study
Its true to suggest the Hebrews and Jews do indeed share ancestry with Celts, BUT whats slanted is the faith. The modern faith doesnt reflect the
ancient druidic pagan faith nor its beliefs or myths, that has all been torn asunder by modern history.
Theres a great deal of similarity (Anu, as I mentioned) and stone evidence which takes the origin of what we know now as Celts right back into the
heart of the ancient mixing pot.
Heres another link considering the Tuatha De Dannan (Children of Danan, the Celtic mythical warrior immortals) in the history of ancient Egypt.

Heres more information on the movements of the ten tribes, and the orgins of the Celts from there.
