Bible Prophecy Commentary – Israel:
It's truly amazing to watch the apparent ongoing deterioration occurring between Israel and the US. Why so much pressure for a peace that will never last? Israel neighbors want them destroyed, cleared off the map; peace will not come until the Lord returns and sets up His kingdom. The ancient hatred continues – Eze 35:5 and Eze 25:15 – between ancient Edom or the territory of Esau (modern Jordan) and the Jews or the descendants of Jacob. Eze 25 refers to the land of the ancient Philistines or now the home of Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The PA is a part of descendants of Esau and they are not likely to abandon their hatred so easily at least until a final confrontation/s occurs.
The Bible prophesies this endless hatred will end in an Arab-Israeli war or wars in the latter days – i.e. Psa 83 and Eze 38.
Keep alert, keep watch, keep your eyes on Israel and keep in prayer.
