“Sh’vatim Ya’akov encircles the southern and eastern [sides] of Eretz Moav: their collective face gazing toward the rising sun that shines upon the eastern border of Eretz Moav [a term denoting an edge and an end. There are clefts in the rock on the Moavit side. When Yisra’elim prepare to passover, Har Haaretz Yisra’el trembles, like a maidservant going out to greet her mistress, and is moved toward Har Moav. Har Haaretz Yisra’el swings from its place and moves toward the side of the Moavit border, and attaches itself to it. Thus, ‘[it] leaned on the border of Moav.’] from the Heights to the valley in Shedema Moav, at the top of the peak, that overlooks the wastelands [For there Moses died and was gathered to his people. The well can be seen from the Jeshimon, for the well was hidden in the Sea of Tiberias [Kinnereth], and anyone standing on the wastelands [above the sea] can look down and see a kind of sieve in the sea, and that is the well. In this manner R. Tanchuma explained it. — [Midrash Tanchuma Chukkath 21, Num. Rabbah 19:25]. Israel includes Eretz Ammon and Eretz Moav ‘so that there be dominion for David My servant’ (1 Kings 11:36). Bene Israel journeyed and encamped in the plains of Moav, across the Jordan from Jericho.” ~ Rashi

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
