Bible Question (short): Does the many include Israel? |
Question (full): Hello all; In dan 9:27 the "Beast" makes a covenant with "The many". My understanding is that the many refer to the nations of the world. But does that include Isreal? I know that we assume that it does but in most places I am aware of when God speak of all nations it does not always include Isreal but only gentile nations (see Joel ch 3). Could it be possible that someone in Israel makes the covenant with the many i.e. the nations of the world? Blsessing to you Aaron |
