Nuggets from “Judgment Day: Islam [1], Israel [2], and the Nations” by Dave Hunt

There are no chapter divisions in the original Bible manuscripts. Ezekiel 39 is a continuation of chapter 38. Again the language is clear: “So will I make my holy name known in the midst of my people Israel [2]; and I will not let them pollute my holy name any more…the house of Israel [2] shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward” (Ezekiel 39: 7, 22). The language here, as earlier, could not apply to some preliminary event but only to the climax of God’s dealing with the world and with Israel [2].

Israel [2] has obviously at last been driven to repentance by the terrifying judgment of God, cries out for the Messiah to rescue her, and is transformed by His appearance in response to her desperate plea for help, never to be in God’s disfavor again: “Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel [2], saith the Lord GOD” (Ezekiel:39:29Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
See All... [3]). Only Armageddon could have brought Israel [2] to her knees and caused every Jew left alive on earth to cry out in humble submission and willingness to accept the true Messiah.

God declares: “Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there” (Ezekiel:39:28Then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there.

This can only be what Christ refers to in Matthew 24 – the final gathering of every physical descendant of Abraham-Isaac-Jacob left on earth back to Israel [2] for the Messiah’s millennial reign at His Second Coming to rescue Israel [2] in the midst of Armageddon: “They shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together [back to Israel [2]] his elect from the four winds…” (Matthew:24:30-31 [30] And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. [31] And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
