JD: They say that the Israeli flag you might remember folks it has the Star of David but two strips on it, blue strips on the white background. The Palestinians are saying that one strip represents the Nile River and the other the Euphrates. They’re saying that this is a symbol that the Jews will ultimately control all the land between the Nile and the Euphrates River that’s from the book of Genesis 15 and that’s basically what God told Abraham would happen. That’s interesting isn’t it how this is all is in their minds? Is it truly the reason for the strips or just in their minds?
IM: Well what they’re trying to do there is it’s similar to what I’ve said before they have to motivate. They know they can’t destroy Israel alone. They want to get the Arab and Muslim world so they tell the Muslim world that it’s an Islamic war against Israel and to protect Muslim holy sites. And they tell the other countries that they are being threatened by Israel. They say look at the Israeli flag. The Israel flag symbolizes the goal to reach Euphrates. And then of course all these countries Lebanon, Syria and others, Iraq all of them then are part of Israel’s target. And then they would say ok we will help fight Israel because we are endanger ourselves. It’s all part of the same thing.
The Palestinians are really isolated nobody in the Arab
world or the Muslim world really cares about them anymore. They have proven to be
not only a terrible so called partner for Israel but they’ve also proven
themselves to be very unfaithful to the other Arab countries and Muslim
countries and every bit of interaction with them. So nobody cares about them
anymore they have to do something to get them to care. So again they call it an
Islamic war for one group and then they call it a nationalist war where Israel
is planning to take over this land. Hopefully they’re trying to with those
kinds of liables about Israel they’re trying to get those countries to join
them and fight against Israel.
JD: Itamar Marcus with the details on how the Palestinians
believe that the Israeli flag represents the Jewish desire to have a greater
Jewish state in the future.
We report this information because it is setting the stage for
Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
The Bible is absolute as it relates to a Jewish state in the
times of the end. In fact the Abrahamic Covenant, Genesis 15, says that the
Jewish nation will be an eternal nation. Deuteronomy chapter 30 which is the
land covenant promises the geographical location of that piece of real estate
which will be the Jewish state. It actually begins at the Nile River in Egypt
and goes north to the Euphrates River and then going southeast down to the
Persian Gulf. All of these nations in that area will be greater Israel in the
future. The Israeli flag is correct.
