Israel
The fulfillment of Bible prophecy
"The whole trend of Bible Prophecy is to the effect that the whole Israelite race is to see a national restoration to their own land of Palestine,
and an ultimate recognition of Christ as their Messiah."
(from The Mystery of the Fate of the Ark of the Covenant by
Rev. Cyril C. Dobson, M.A., 1939 )

The LORD's sign to the world
And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.
And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
But if from thence thou shalt seek the LORD thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God,
and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
(For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
For ask now of the days that are past,
which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other,
whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?
(Deuteronomy 4:27-32 KJV)
The Lord has not cast away Israel
And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly,
and to break my covenant with them:
for I am the LORD their God. But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors,
whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.
(Lev 26:44-45
KJV)
Unconditional covenant
for His name's sake
Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel,
but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them;
and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
(Ezekiel 36:22-24
KJV)
Returned to the land of their fathers
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring
them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
(Jeremiah 16:14-15
KJV)
Blessing to the world
He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
(Isaiah 27:6
KJV)
Israeli Agriculture Helps Feed the World
Blessed and protected by the Lord
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed;
and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt. And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel,
and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall
also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of
their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.
(Amos 9:13-15
KJV)
