Verse
of the Week
And
in that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples;
all
who lift it shall be cut in pieces. And all the nations of the earth
will be
gathered
against it.
(Zechariah
12:3) HRB NOTE - Verses 1-3 is an end time prophecy about how the
nations will look at Jerusalem. It is quite interesting to look at
Jerusalem today that produces no commodity such as oil, but yet most
will say that not dividing Jerusalem is the cause holding up world
peace.
Thought
for the Week
As
with most things in life, when it comes to the issue of “Palestine”
and “Arabs”, folks today would do well to study their Bible a
little more. The Bible is the go-to history book on Middle East
affairs. Modern-day “Hebrews”, “Arabs”, and “Palestinians”
are all descended from the same well. It begins with Abram/Abraham as
a Hebrew. His sons, Isaac and Ismael, parted ways, in essence, to
become modern day Hebrews and Arabs. Isaac's sons, Jacob and Esau,
parted ways too; and hence, we have the Hebrew line continuing (thru
Jacob) as well as the start of the “Palestinian” line known then
as Edomites (thru Esau).
Concerning
Isaac and Ishmael: Ismael was the son of the Hebrew Abram/Abraham and
the Egyptian slave Hagar. Isaac was the son of the Hebrew
Abram/Abraham too but with his wife Sara (a fellow Hebrew).
Concerning Ishmael YHWH said. “And he shall be a wild donkey of
a man, his hand against all, and the hand of everyone against him;
and he shall live before all his brothers” (Genesis 16:12).
Isaac on the other hand received YHWH's promises to Abraham. BIG
NOTE: This is the single most divisive issue between
Jews/Christians and Muslims! Muslims say that the Koran (Qur'an),
from the prophet Mohamed, says that it was Ishmael that Abraham
almost sacrificed and it is Ishmael who received the promise of God.
Concerning Esau YHWH said, “And YAHWEH said to her, Two nations
are in your womb; even two peoples shall break from your body. And
one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder
shall serve the younger” (Genesis 25:23). The twin sons she
bore were Esau first and then Jacob; and, their descendants today are
known as the “Palestinians” (from Esau) and the Israelites (from
Jacob). Why do I continue to place quotes around “Palestinians”?
Esau's descendants became known as the Edomites, and concerning them
YHWH said, “Shame shall cover you from the violence against your
brother Jacob, and you shall be cut off forever” (Obadiah 1:10;
HRB NOTE - The Hebrew word for violence here is Hamas, the same name
of the terror group in the Gaza strip today.)
The
descendants of the ancient Edomites are, in essence, modern day
“Palestinians”. And cut off they have been and are! When the
world (via the UN) divided the Middle East after the fall of the
Ottoman Empire (end of WWI) a small sliver of “Palestine” was to
be allocated to the Jews as their own nation – Israel. The people
known today as “Palestinians” DID NOT have a nation of their own
either so they were given the major part of “Palestine” known as
Trans-Jordan; but the Jordanians later kicked them out! None of the
Arabs want the so called “Palestinians”! To the Arabs the
“Palestinians” are of Isaac's line not Ismael's line and so
despise them almost as much as they do the Jews! (SEE NOTE 1)
“Palestine” also once covered parts of Syria and Lebanon, etc but
as with other Arab nations they do not want the “Palestinians”.
One
of the problems today is that the Left does not believe in the
existence of any supernatural God and as such will never understand
that neither Islamic Terrorism or the conflict of Palestinian and
Arab Muslims against Jews (and Christians) will never be resolved
with economics or politics. The issue is religion not poverty. The
majority of deaths at the hands of Muslims is other Muslims – Shia
vs Sunni, etc (think Iran vs Saudi Arabia aka Persian vs Arab). The
only thing both sides agree on is that they want to destroy Israel
and the West. The primary exporter of Islamic Terrorism against
Israel is Iran; and, the Iranian government is so well off it is
developing a nuclear warfare program while waging war in Iraq, Syria,
Yemen, Lebanon, etc. ad naseum. The primary exporter of Islamic
Terrorism against the West is the House of Saud (the Saudi's); and,
they are filthy rich!
Two
sayings come to mind, “Charity begins at home” and “Know thy
enemy”. The Left understands neither. It wants to replace charity
with government hand outs that come with the caveat of kneel and obey
or stand up and suffer; and, it thinks Islam is a peaceful philosophy
whose only drawback is it does not embrace the LGBT movement.
Leadership from the Left is like having a blind tour guide describing
the works of art in the Louvre! They are clueless yet repeat what
they have been told regardless of the truth.
The
US has an increasing abundance of need among our own people. It is
ludicrous to ignore our own poor while bringing in the poor of our
enemies – this only allows the enemy to use more funds to bolster
their own war efforts while infiltrating our defenses. It is even
more insane that we politically continue to protect the Saudi's and
attack Israel! Wake up folks! The Saudi's are on Satan's team!
The
UN and the US (under Obama and his ilk) are serving Satan in their
push to elevate the “Palestinians” over Israel! The US would do
well to remember the fate of those who turn on Israel – e.g.
Palestinians/Edomites (refer to Obadiah for more detail, one of the
Edomites' sins was that they failed to help the Israelites in their
hour of need).
Truth
matters! History matters! YHWH's Word has both. Study His Word and
Help Spread His Word!
NOTE
1 - Though some of Esau's descendants are in fact “of Ismael”
as well as “of Isaac”. Consider:
then
Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael,
the
son of Abraham, Nebajoth's sister. To his wives he added her for his
wife.
(Genesis
28:9) (HRB NOTE - Esau now compounds the sin of selling his
birthright by intermarrying with the seed of Ismael, who was born
from the handmaid Hagar, and was not the seed of promise.
PS
– I have mentioned my use of the Hebraic Roots Bible (HRB) before
and in this regard here are a few relevant HRB notes dealing with the
above:
Obadiah
1:3 HRB NOTE - (1408) “pride” comes from the Hebrew word to
boil or seethe and is used 3 times in the story of Esau and Jacob.
Hebrews
12:17 HRB NOTE - (2427) Worldly sorrow is simply being sorry for
not having what one wants and is bred from selfishness. True Elohim
guided repentance is a 180% turn from sin, and showing the fruit of
that repentance. Esau did not have this and was simply sorry that he
lost his blessing (Genesis 27:36-39).
Jeremiah
51:46 HRB NOTE - (1064) The word for violence here is “Hamas”.
It is quite interesting that Hamas has most of its fund raising and
money sources from the USA.
They
do not know the way of peace; and no justice is in their tracks.
They
have made crooked paths for themselves;
everyone
going in them does not know peace.
(Isaiah
59:8) (HRB NOTE - Although not the primary meaning of the verse,
this defines Hamas exactly.)
QUOTE
Israel
will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it,
just as it obliterated others before it. –
Imam Hassan al-Banna
COMMENT:
This quote is from the Hamas Charter referenced below. Obama,
Hillary, etc, have been arming Hamas for years allegedly to help
fight the War on Terror!
TIDBITS
According
to UN Watch: More than half of all resolutions adopted by the U.N.
Human Rights Council since 2006 (when the Council was established) in
criticism of a particular country have been directed at Israel. In
2013, the U.N. General Assembly adopted a total of 21 resolutions
singling out Israel for censure and only four resolutions to protest
the actions of the rest of the world’s states. COMMENT:
There are 193 nations in the UN. There are 102 countries where so
called “Christians” predominate and 56 that are Islamic. Yet the
UN acts as though having one Jewish Nation is one too many. It is as
YHWH told us it would be. Study your Bible and you may very well
learn history before it even happens! :)
From
the Hamas
Charter 18 August 1988:
The
Islamic Resistance Movement is one of the wings of Moslem Brotherhood
in Palestine. Moslem Brotherhood Movement is a universal organization
which constitutes the largest Islamic movement in modern times. It is
characterized by its deep understanding, accurate comprehension and
its complete embrace of all Islamic concepts of all aspects of life,
culture, creed, politics, economics, education, society, justice and
judgment, the spreading of Islam, education, art, information,
science of the occult and conversion to Islam.
COMMENT:
The Muslim Brotherhood is considered a terrorist organization even by
many Arab and Muslim countries; and, was an un-indited co-conspirator
in a terrorism trial in the US. Yet Obama and his ilk support the
Muslim Brotherhood here in the US! Obama is an un-indited
co-conspiring traitor!
Muslims
claim the Qur'an was written in Arabic and is invalid even today in
any other language. COMMENT: This though it has been proven
many words in the Qur'an do not yield a meaning unless they are
traced back to their Hebrew or Syriac sources. PS – Black
Muslims in the US may be in for a rude awakening when they learn, as
their African brethren already have, that they are considered “second
class” citizens because they are not the true descendants of
Ishmael. They are “Muslim converts” and not Muslim Arabs.
Consider
Revelation 20:4. Who are the only people in modern times who still
behead other people? Muslims!
