احتمالا این علاقه به عدد 12 و داستان 12 امام هم از همین نوشته های تورات سرچشمه گرفته ...

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ، سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِیَّ صلى الله علیه وسلم یَقُولُ ‏"‏ یَكُونُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ أَمِیرًا ـ فَقَالَ كَلِمَةً لَمْ أَسْمَعْهَا فَقَالَ أَبِی إِنَّهُ قَالَ ـ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَیْشٍ ‏"‏‏.‏

Narrated Jabir bin Samura:

I heard the Prophet saying, "There will be twelve Muslim rulers (who will rule all the Islamic world)." He then said a sentence which I did not hear. My father said, "All of them (those rulers) will be from Quraish."

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِی عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْیَانُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَیْرٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِیَّ صلى الله علیه وسلم یَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ یَزَالُ أَمْرُ النَّاسِ مَاضِیًا مَا وَلِیَهُمُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ رَجُلاً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ تَكَلَّمَ النَّبِیُّ صلى الله علیه وسلم بِكَلِمَةٍ خَفِیَتْ عَلَىَّ فَسَأَلْتُ أَبِی مَاذَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله علیه وسلم فَقَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَیْشٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

It has been reported on the authority of Jabir b. Samura who said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah say: The affairs of the people will continue to be conducted (well) as long as they are governed by twelve men. Then the Prophet said words which were obscure to me. I asked my father: What did the Messenger of Allah say? He said: All of the (twelve men) will be from the Quraish.

حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِیُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، یَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله علیه وسلم یَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ یَزَالُ الإِسْلاَمُ عَزِیزًا إِلَى اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ خَلِیفَةً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ كَلِمَةً لَمْ أَفْهَمْهَا فَقُلْتُ لأَبِی مَا قَالَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَیْشٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

It has been narrated on the authority of Jabir b. Samura who said:

I heard the Messenger of Allah say: Islam will continue to be triumphant until there have been twelve Caliphs. Then the Prophet said something which I could not understand. I asked my father: What did he say? He said: He has said that all of them (twelve Caliphs) will be from the Quraish.
