AMPLIFIED 2015 | Revelation 12:14 But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for a time and times and half a time (three and one-half years), away from the presence of the serpent (Satan). [Ex 19:4; Deut 32:10, 11; Is 40:31; Dan 7:25; 12:7] |
Subject: Middle East and America in Prophesy |
Bible Note: Pastor Glenn Sorry I read you wrong the first time I thought you were referring to woman. As to the wings yes they could be USA but not very likely. Britain played a bigger part in Israel becoming a nation than we did. And many contribute the efforts of the Finns in 1906 as being the ones that initiated the rebirth of the nation if Israel. Both Britain and Finland use the eagle to some degree in their country’s symbolism. Many see the wings not as a symbol of a country but rather of indication of how many of the Jews will return home. Major air lifts have brought many Jewish back to Israel. I believe two major air lifts were used to bring the Ethiopian Jews home and Jews leaving Russia by air is an on going process. In the last 10 years 1.5 million Jews or nearly one fifth of Israel’s population has returned to Israel and most if not all by air. Again I repeat the USA can not be clearly seen in prophecy as of yet. As events unfold we may see America being revealed as a participant but to do so now is mere speculation. EdB |
