Once again, Israel's capital, the city in which God chose to dwell, was in Jewish hands.

[Robert Gervais Gero]

Once again, Israel's capital, the city in which God chose to dwell, was in Jewish hands.

"You will bring them in and plant them on the mountain of Your possession; LORD, You have prepared a place for Your dwelling; Lord, Your hands have established the sanctuary."  (Exodus 15:17)

Jerusalem is central to end-time prophecy.

The Bible says that in the last days, the nations will come against Jerusalem(Zechariah 12:3; Ezekiel 38-39).

Indeed, the stage seems set for this very thing to happen.  But as much as the world community would like to re-divide Jerusalem, giving the part that Jordan briefly controlled to the Palestinians, Adonai has made it clear that He opposes dividing His land.

"I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.  There I will put them on trial for what they did to My inheritance, My people Israel, because they scattered My people among the nations and divided up My land."  (Joel 3:2)
