With passage of UN Resolution 2334 by the United Nations Security Council on Dec. 23, 2016, a dramatic shift is beginning to occur in global politics. With this action, which condemns Israel for the settlements they’ve created in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria) and in east Jerusalem, the world is entering into an even […]
A group of senior rabbis in Israel are now operating the first Sanhedrin court since the rabbinical organization was dissolved almost 1600 years ago. The Sanhedrin was originally one of the principal forces in Israel, both in politics and in religion. Their members were involved with governing the people, functioning as a high court, and […]
In preparation for rebuilding the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, the Levitical priests in Israel are now relearning the traditions and laws related to Temple worship, which were originally prescribed by Moses before they entered the Promised Land. However, since the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD the Jews have not practiced these traditions, […]
Is there an unseen force or a law of nature that God has designed into the world, which silently governs the rise and fall of economies and nations? Is there a principle that has been functioning for decades and perhaps even for centuries, which affects the global political and economic systems and causes periodic recessions […]
The prophet Joel predicted thousands of years ago that in the End Times the Lord would “show wonders in the heavens, and in the earth, blood and fire and pillars of smoke.” He also said, “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood before the coming of the great and awesome […]
Daniel’s prophecy of the Seventy Weeks does not end with the death of Christ and the destruction of Jerusalem (see previous section). There is still one significant part left in Israel’s allotted time clock that we have not yet considered and this amazing prophecy is described in a single verse: Daniel 9:27. This verse actually […]
The assignment of a starting date to Daniel’s prophecy of the Seventy Weeks (see the previous sections) now allows us to calculate the future course of the prophecy precisely as Gabriel described it in Dan. 9:24-27. Using the combination of prophetic and historical information, we can say with certainty that the starting point for Daniel’s […]
According to Daniel 9:25, the beginning of Israel’s mandate, or the point at which the clock was to start ticking for the Seventy Weeks, would be at the issuing of a command to rebuild the ruins of the city of Jerusalem. The end of the Babylonian captivity and the subsequent return of the Jews’ to […]
To fully comprehend what will happen to Israel at the end of the age, it is critically important to read and interpret an amazing prophecy from the book of Daniel. Without this one prophecy, God’s dealings with Israel as explained in the Bible could not be completely understood. In fact, if this prophecy was overlooked […]
The Lord has provided incredible predictions in the Bible about the nation of Israel in the last days. Some of these prophecies involve detailed descriptions of what would happen to the Jewish people after they returned to their land in the end times. As incredible as it may seem, the prophets of old accurately predicted […]
For a small nation that had its rebirth only recently in history, Israel has made tremendous progress. The Jews have transformed the land into a fertile agricultural region, built impressive cities, and have grown their economy into one of the greatest success stories of modern history. In 2012, Israel was ranked 22nd out of 142 […]
Ezekiel was not the only prophet who had foreseen the modern-day state of Israel. Although the verses that were covered within Ezekiel in the previous section contain the clearest description of the events leading up to their rebirth in unbelief (see Restored with Fury), many other prophets actually went beyond that point and foretold the […]
For a full understanding of all the prophecies of Israel’s rebirth and how they fit together, we need to consider one important passage from the book of Ezekiel. This set of verses shows us that God predicted Israel would be restored with fury poured out, and this reflects exactly what happened in the years before […]
The key to what is happening to Israel today rests not with Moses, but in the prophecies uttered by Ezekiel. The book that bears his name is a tremendous apocalyptic writing of almost mystical character. The visions of future events that are described within its pages are rich with metaphors and symbolic action, all of […]
The prediction of Moses concerning the rebirth of Israel and their gathering back to the land poses an interesting question (see Deut. 30:1-4). Given that Moses definitely says Israel will become a nation again only after they repent and after the Lord returns to regather them, we are forced to ask a question that has […]
General Prophecies of Hope With all the prophecies relating to the doom and gloom of a disobedient Israel it’s easy to come away with the feeling that all hope was lost for God’s chosen people (see the previous prophecies concerning Israel). For centuries on end Jerusalem was controlled by Gentile powers just as Jesus […]
The small nation of Israel has been dangerously dependent on external petroleum producers to supply their energy needs. The vast oil and gas fields of the Middle East always have been controlled by the surrounding Islamic nations, which are hostile to the very existence of Israel. However, that is about to radically change. Israel […]
The government of Israel recently announced that it was approving the construction of thousands of new homes in an area around East Jerusalem. Israel is continuing their expansion of Jerusalem in the heavily contested region of the West Bank, which the Palestinians claim as their own territory and capital. The United Nations and most […]
