Bible Note: The constant warring between the Jews and the Arabs was prophesied in Genesis 25:21-24 “Now Isaac pleaded with the LORD for his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived. But the children struggled together within her; and she said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" So she went to inquire of the LORD. And the LORD said to her: "Two nations are in your womb, Two peoples shall be separated from your body; One people shall be stronger than the other, And the older [Esau, the father of the Arabs] shall serve the younger [Jacob, the father of the Jews]." So when her days were fulfilled for her to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb.” These children literally fought from before birth. Jesus, in 32 AD, prophesied the destruction of the temple by the Romans, which happened in 70 AD. Matthew 24:1-2 “Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said to them, "Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down." The Roman general Titus had ordered the soldiers to not harm the temple, just destroy the rest of Jerusalem. The temple was completely covered with gold inside, and much of the outside, and he wanted it intact, in Roman hands, as a trophy. However, someone threw a torch or something into it, and the temple burned. The gold melted, and ran between all the stones. In order to recover the gold, Titus ordered every stone taken down, and the gold removed. Jesus’ prophecy was literally fulfilled. |
