More on prophecies concerning Israel

Dear friends

Yesterday I sent you two prophecies concerning Israel, one from a rabbi in 1882, and the other from a Christian Arab lady in 1933. Both pointed to the Spring of 2003 for something significant.

While meditating on that, and doing some checking, I discovered

1. The year 1933 is considered the year when the Jewish holocaust began, according to my research. You could say that 1933 was the year that the modern persecution of the Jews began. It has been uninterrupted. As soon as Nazi Germany collapsed, the Arabs took up the role, which has been relentless and murderous. The year 2003 will mark 70 years of this persecution.

2. The Arab lady spoke of 1933 + 70 years, which = 2003. There were 70 years during the period of the Babylonian exile. God does things in patterns. The years 1933 to 2003 may be a 70-year period of persecution by that same spirit of Babylon, the center for occultism, and Hitler and the Nazis were heavily into the occult. There is evidence that Satan's throne may be in Babylon, which is modern-day Iraq. The following prophecy may have a dual fulfillment "And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their iniquity..." (Jeremiah 2512). Current talk is that the U.S. invasion of Iraq (Babylon) will begin in early 2003.

3. Next Spring will still be in Jewish year 5763, as we are in now. Miriam Howard queried Ask the Rabbi about the gematrical meaning of 5763 in Hebrew, and the reply from Rabbi Moshe Krasnanski was that one meaning is, "Let it be the year of the end of exile." While Israel may still face tribulation, the year 2003 may mark the beginning of the end of her troubles since ancient times.

4. The planting of the fig tree, modern Israel, God's time clock, was in 1878, with the establishment of Petah Tikvah in Judea and Rosh Pinnah in Galilee. These are considered the first Jewish villages in the Holy Land in modern times. 1878 + 70 = 1948, the year Israel was born. This is another significant 70-year period concerning Israel

5. The year 1967 was an extremely important prophetic year concerning Israel, as that is when Jerusalem was captured. The year 1967 minus 70 years = 1897, the very same year the modern Zionist movement was launched by Theodor Hertzl. Another significant 70-year period in Israel's history.
