Eze 12:15 And they shall know that I am the LORD, when
I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries.
Eze 11:17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and
I will give you the land of Israel.
Amos 9:14 I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine, and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.
Amos 9:15 I will plant them on their land, and
they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them,” says the LORD your God.
The prophecy of the worldwide dispersion and regathering of the children of Israel is given many times in the Bible. Its fulfillment in the past 2000 years is the greatest proof outside of the resurrection of Christ that the Bible is true. The purpose for God restoring Israel to the land is to sanctify His great name and bring Him glory (Ezek 36:22). In
Isaiah 66:7-8 (700 B.C.), the prophet Isaiah gives a strange prophecy. “Before she was in labor, she gave birth; before her pain came, she delivered a male child. Who has heard such a thing? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or
shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
In 1922 the League of Nations gave Great Britain the mandate (political authority) over Palestine. On
May 14, 1948, Britain withdrew her mandate, and the nation of Israel was “born in a day.” There are more than 25 Bible prophecies concerning Palestine that have been
literally fulfilled. Probability estimations conclude that the chances of these being accidentally fulfilled are
less than one chance in 33 million.
