Zechariah 12:1-4 The oracle of the word of the Lord concerning Israel: Thus declares the Lord, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him: “Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of staggering to all the surrounding peoples. The siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah. On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it. On that day, declares the Lord, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. But for the sake of the house of Judah I will keep my eyes open, when I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
The prophets spoke of a time when Israel would be isolated against the world. At this time, under the current Biden Administration. Israel has no support.
The abstention was the United States. This is a change in US policy towards Israel.

Vice President Harris has weighed in on the issue. She and the Administration have been “clear”. The invasion of Rafah would be a “huge mistake”.
“I am ruling out nothing…” in regards to consequences to Israel.
Keep in mind, VP Harris is married to a Jewish man, Douglas Emhoff.
Below is the map VP Harris has been studying.

Zechariah 14:2-3 For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city. Then the Lord will go out and fight against those nations as when he fights on a day of battle.
The world would like to divide Jerusalem in the event of a Palestinian state. East Jerusalem would be the capital.
We have already seen this in the communities that border the Gaza Strip. This is exactly what happened on October 7, 2023… the houses plundered and the women raped. The prophet Zechariah says this will happen again in the future in Jerusalem. Other prophets include Judah in the south as well.

The context of Ezekiel 7 is judgment on the land of Israel. Judgment is being rendered against violence or “hamas“.
Ezekiel 7:11 Violence has grown up into a rod of wickedness. None of them shall remain, nor their abundance, nor their wealth; neither shall there be preeminence among them.
Ezekiel 7:23 Forge a chain! For the land is full of bloody crimes and the city is full of violence.
Ezekiel 7:25 When anguish comes, they will seek peace, but there shall be none.
Are we witnessing the ultimate fulfillment of this prophecy? Time will tell.
