OP probably just learned about this stuff recently (some of which I've only now learned, myself), and decided to share it with others.
Bottom line is, OP's intention is to educate other people (not just Filipino NTers) about our people's past. So that people are were previously uninformed about this have at least some basic knowledge that dispels common stereotypes / ignorant assumptions. That the western world wasn't the only civilization contributing to the progression of humankind on this earth. Everyone helped each other out in one point or another.
Cliffs:
OP only intended to educate, not be original (does it matter?).
Other non-western civilizations (like Filipinos) back then were civilized, had values/honorable customs, and do not act like animals (look, I said animals).

A very creative "folk" legend based on religious sources dates the naming of Basilan to about 600 BCE, during the reign of Zedekiah, King ofJudah. A group of Israelites (descendants of the tribe of Yehosef Joseph) left Jerusalem for a New Promised Land. They were led by Lehi, (of the tribe of Manasseh), a visionary man, his wife Sariah, and their four (4) sons, Laman, Lemuel, Nephi, and Sam. Lehi invited his cousin, Ishmael, an Arab (of the tribe of Ephraim), his wife, his sons and their wives, and their daughters, who were taken as wives by Lehi's sons. With them also came Zoram, the Keeper of the Records of the Jews (The Torah, the five books of Moses). They traveled south across the Arabian Peninsula where they wandered for eight years, passing Jebel Musa or Mountain of Moses, the mountain where Moses supposedly received God's laws, reaching Salalah present day Oman. The Lehites named Salalah, Land Bountiful.
With the ability to make tools, they used these tools to cut timber from the mountains and built a ship in quest of the Promised Land. About 597 BCE crossed the Arabian Sea, passing the Indian Ocean, Moroni Island, towards the Malacca Straits, passing thru an island they called YahVah (Java), another island they called Samathar (Sam entreated his brethren here -Sumatra), a place they called Jah Karath (covenant with Jehovah - Jakarta), Singapore, the South China Sea, and reached a group of islands they called Sinim (Sulu Archipelago). They stopped over in these islands for replenishments. They called an island, Sug (South Island - Sulu, translated into Spanish as Jolo).
Going northward, they reached a beautiful island full of precious iron ores, fruits and timber. Lehi discovered a gentle and beautiful people thriving on the island. They called the Island, Basalalah (New Land Bountiful - Basilan). Lehi's group were welcomed and feted like royalty by the natives. Lehi was crowned Raha Lahay, and his sons, Lakan Napay, Lakan Laman, Lakan Lamah (Lemuel, a weakling), etc. All the men were crowned lakans (princes) and the women were crowned dayang-dayang (princesses). Lehi named the different parts of the Islands, thus: Southern part, Lehi called it Mal-yusuf (Maluso) in honor of his ancestor and son, Joseph; the Northern part, Pa Sara-ngan, (the way to Sarah's name (or place) - Pasangan, now Isabela). in honor of his wife Sarah; eastern part, Laman-tian (Laman's desire - Lamitan); a small island, Mal-Lemuel (Island of the weak Lemuel - Malamawi); a hilly portion, Panun-Zoram, in honor of Zoram (Picnic Grove - Panunsulan); a small town, Maha-Lahay (royal town of Raha Lahay - Mahayahay). The Lehites taught the natives how to extract ore and form metals to make tools, weapons, and jewelry. They also taught them the ways of peace, love, and harmony. They taught them how to weave cloth, how to preserve food, and build houses made of lumber, bamboo and nipa thatches, according to the ways of the Israelites.
They sailed on northward and named places and islands: Samboangan (in honor of Sam -Zamboanga), Sugbu (island north of Sug - Cebu); further north, Nasugbu (Batangas, north of Sugbu). They traveled westward towards the silence of many waters and called it Mifratz Lamon(Lamon Bay) and a calm sea (Pacific ocean); naming places as they go. The sons of Lehi named an island after their father, Lehi-teh (Lehi's island of the east - Leyte). Lehi named an adjacent island after his son, Sam, Sam Arkath (Sam, the beloved son - Samar). They named a small island Lima Zohar (weak supply of water, like Lemuel - Limasawa). Finally, the rich south-central coast of Mindanao island was called Sara-ngan (Sarah's name (or place) - Sarangani). Looking back at the beautiful islands of beautiful people, Lehi named the whole group of islands, Sinim (Pearl Islands - now reduced to the island group west of Basilan - Pilas - nativized from the Spanish "Perlas", the island group where the legendary native chieftain who defeated Ferdinand Magellan, Lapu-Lapu, is widely believed to be buried).
