There is some evidence that the Philistines came from the west, and the Hebrews are one of their descendents. Don't know all the details. There is a school of thought that there never was a unified Hebrew nation ala King David & Solomon style. This thinking is inspired by several problems: 1) The lack of significant mention of such in other nations from the time, 2) The lack of ruins supporting such, and 3) the fact that the earliest authentic records are from the Jewish times after the split of Israel & Judah (King Josiah??).

There is much evidence (most of Jewish philosophical thought) for Chaldean origins of Jewish culture as well, which is to the east. A time machine would be really great!
