Whatever happened to Zerah and his descendants?
Cheated of their birthright, the descendants of Zerah separated from the children of Israel soon after the Exodus. This separation explains why so few
references to Zerah appear in God's Word. Some of the children of Zerah went north to Greece. Others went to Troy, near the Dardanelles, which, by the
way, bears the name of Zerah's fifth son, Darda. After Troy's fall to the Achaeans (Greeks), a group of Zerahites under the leadership of Brutus
migrated to Britain via Malta. In England, they founded "New Troy," which the Romans much later renamed Londinium, now London.quote]
