My reading of the text, and I'd guess 99.999999999% of everyone else that reads it, is that there is no attempt at all to suggest that the Scots are in any way connected to the Israelites. The mention of the Red Sea crossing is just a time reference, how anyone can read anything more than that needs some special care.
