Stumbled upon another intriguing fact while looking into something else. This is old news but the discovery's significance still stand. In 2006, some ancient manuscripts were found in Ireland and thought to be 1000 years old.

"Medieval Christian Book Discovered in Ireland Bog"
One of the manuscripts found was the Book of Psalms from the Old Testament. When it was found, it was opened on Psalm 83. That psalm chapter talks about the nations trying to wipe out the name of God's nation. In that same year 2006, there is the conflict between God's nation and its neighbour.
