God's protection of Israel

Abraham lived safely in UR when Pepi II's army patrolled Canaan;Abraham resided in Canaan around the time Egyptian king Pepi II died. Abraham lived for 96 more years after Pepi II had died.

Isaac lived for 180 years. (Genesis 35:28) Isaac lived through Mentuhotep II-IV's reigns. Amenemhet I, Senusret I, Amenemhet II, Senusret II and part of Senusret III's reign. Isaac died 10 years before Jacob entered Egypt. There were no Egyptian troops in Canaan until Isaac had died before Senusret III had entered Canaan and annexed Canaan. Isaac was protected from the Egyptians.

Jacob entered Egypt at age 130 and lived in Egypt for 17 more years. Jacob was protected by Joseph when Joseph was governor of Egypt. God spared Jacob's family from starving in Canaan and God protected Jacob from the powerful Amorites.

Moses life was saved by the Egyptian princess Hatshepsut. Thutmose III's wars in the Middle-East weakened and disolved the 400 years of Amorite power. (Genesis 15:13-16) This action helped the Hebrews to enter Canaan-since Amenhotep II,Thutmose IV, Amenhotep III and Akenaton all collected tribute from the Amorites proving their 400 years of power had ended.

There are 521 years from the Exodus to Rehoboam's 5th year. (1 Kings 14:25) 1 Kings 6:1 = 480 yrs. + Solomon reigned another 36 years + Rehoboam's 5th year = 521 years. For some 520 years no Egyptian troops fought the Israelites. What a miracle!

There are more miracles to come in the words of the Jewish prophets. The Arab nations are planning their attack against Israel. The Arab armies will be crushed. Then Iran and Iran's allies Russia, Libya, Turkey and Ethiopia/Sudan will attack Israel and Israel will win victory.

God then warns of a false prophet who arises promising Israel peace. By peace the false prophet will destroy many. This will occur after the third Jewish temple is built. Before the army of the false prophet from Rome enters Israel, the Jewish prophet Daniel states the Jews should flee to Ammon, Edom and Moab the only place in the world where God will provide protection. The false prophet shall reign for 42 months before the real Jewish messiah returns.

The false prophet will control the world's food supply. There is a UN food agency in Rome. Those people who don't follow the false prophet won't be able to buy or sell. Even now poor African farmers are selling their farms and corporate farming is taking over Africa and everywhere else. (Revelation 18:23) By the merchants greed all nations are deceived.

Rural farming communities are turning into corporate farming and we see a rise in food prices. The world will suffer for 42 months until the real Jewish messiah appears on the world scene and justice will finally prevail.
