Timeframe 2 -Mass Return of the Jews

1. Timeframe 2 -Mass Return of the Jews

2. Timeframe 2 -Mass Return of the Jews Timeframe 2 -Mass Return of the Jews Quick summary of timeframe 2 – mass return Timeframe 2 concerns mainly Jews right after timeframe 1 (rise of Antichrist). In timeframe 2 Israel is invaded, many Jews die and flee to Egypt - all hope gone. God brings Jews to repentance toward Jehovah in Egypt. The Ark of the Covenant reappears. Jews come out of Egypt regaining their land and even more. In the process destroying the Dome of the rock for payback. Ark on Mount Zion signals all Jews from all nations to return to Israel bring about the mass return. Jews make plan to rebuild temple. No repentance toward Christ at this time. Daniel’s 70th week after rapture will accomplish this.

3. Before study of events in timeframe 2 it is important to review and answer a few questions • Does Antichrist play a major role? • What is the time element for events of timeframe 2 • Events of timeframe 2 cause Jews to repent toward Jehovah God but why not Christ as their Messiah at this time? • A review of blessings and curses as outlined in Deuteronomy and Leviticus by Moses that explains exactly their past history • Why will the Jews return to Egypt?

4. The role of Antichrist in timefame 2 – mass return In the study of timeframe 1 – rise of Antichrist and his empire we talked of each prophet had his own name for Antichrist. Daniel - 'the little horn'; Isaiah 'the Assyrian' (Isaiah 10); Paul - 'the man of sin' ( 2 Thessolonians 2); John inRevelations13 - 'the beast‘; Habakkuk 1- 'the  Chaldean'. We also looked at why God allowed Antichrist and his demonic forces to come to power and quoted Hab 1:12that he will be used for correction. Hab 1:12Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction. After Antichrist’s rise to power before the rapture he will play a major role in the prophecies of the mass return. However, as much as he things he is running the show God is the one using him to drive the Jews back to Him and prepare Mount Zion for His glorious reign over the Kingdom of Israel and the Gentile nations. Events of the mass return before the rapture are a part of that process. Before the rapture God

5. brings the Jews back in Covenant with Him from all nations with the Ark on Mount Zion. After the rapture, it will take Daniel’s 70th week to bring the nation to Christ (Kingdom). Isaiah 10:24-27 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.25 For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. 26 And the LORD of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and as his rod was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after the manner of Egypt. 27 And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing. Isaiah 10:12Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.

6. The pre-rapture time element of events fulfilled in timeframe 2 - the mass return, First, post-rapture Israel and Jerusalem - Ezekiel 38 as Antichrist invades in the middle of Daniel’s 70th week. Ezekiel 38:8-14 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought: 11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon

7. the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord God; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it? • land that is brought back from the sword • places that were made desolate now inhabited • all villages without walls, bars, gates • gathered out of many people • they are all dwelling safely – all of them • rich in cattle, goods, silver, gold, and a great spoil (oil?) Today, Israel has built long walls to protect itself. Constantly at war and on guard every day against attacks from its enemies. No sane person will say they are dwelling safely. The question is – when was Israel put to the sword and their land made desolate before the events of Ezek 38.

8. The answer will be the pre-rapture events of timeframe 2. For now let us quote Ezekiel 35:5 and Obadiah 1:10-14 that narrows the time element further. In Ezekiel 35:5 God is speaking to Mount Seir which is the house of Esau – Arabs. Ezekiel 35 will be studied fully in timeframe 2 – phase 2 of the mass return. Ezekiel 35:55 Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end: Notice Israel is put to the sword in a time that their iniquity had an end. Time of iniquity that Israel served ended in 1948 A.D. when Israel became a nation after 2500 years of Gentile servitude prophesized by Ezekiel. This time of putting Israel to the sword by its enemies is after 1948 A.D. and called ‘time of their calamity’. Notice Israel is put to the sword in a time that their iniquity had an end. Time of iniquity that Israel served ended in 1948 A.D. when Israel became a nation after 2500 years of Gentile servitude prophesized by Ezekiel. This time of putting Israel to the sword by its enemies is after 1948 A.D. and called ‘time of their calamity’. Now we want to look at Obadiah 1:10-14 where God is addressing brother of Jacob which is Esau – who is the father of Arabs and narrow our time element even further.

9. Obadiah 1:10-14 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever. 11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. 12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. 13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity; 14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress.

10. 15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head. 16 For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been. Notice vs 13 ‘Day of their Calamity’ – same time elements as Ezek 35:5. We saw Ezek 35:5 put the ‘Day of their calamity’ after their ‘time of iniquity’ had ended(1948 A.D.).Now Obadiah 1:15 says theDay of the Lord is near and in that day God will do to the Arabs what they have done to the Jews in their ‘Day of calamity’ when they put Israel to the sword. Daniel’s 70th week is the same time period as Day of the Lord. To allow for all the events of mass return which would include ‘Day of Calamity’ to run their course and produce Israel dwelling safely and without walls, bars, gates, and rich in cattle, goods, silver, gold, and a great spoil (oil?) as told us in Ezek 38,39 this will take some time and could only happen before the rapture and not after.

12. Timeframe 2 brings Jews back to Covenant relationship with Jehovah – God of their fathers but will remain blinded to Jesus as Messiah until after the rapture and during Daniel’s 70th week Since Israel has been a nation since 1948 AD there remains many Jews still scattered among many nations to this day. God is not going to deal with nation of Israel to bring them to Christ till after the rapture. Two sets of scriptures will confirm this; Romans 11:25, Micah 5., Romans 11:25For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. That is, when the Church Age ends God will deal with the nation of Israel to bring them to call upon Him and He will appear to save them. However, the Church age ends 3 ½ years after the rapture that is, at the end of the great 3 ½ year Christian Tribulation period when the tribulation martyrs are resurrected as part of the first resurrection, pefecting the bride of Christ, bringing the Church age to a close . Then

13. follows Daniel’s 70th week the remaining 7 years when God deals with Israel to bring them to Christ. Daniel’s 69th week ended with Messiah being cut off (crucified). Between the 69th and 70th week was the Church age hidden in the Old Testament as a mystery but revealed in the New Testament. Ephesians 3:1-6For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, 2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: 3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, 4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; 6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: Paul calls the Church Age a dispensation of grace. A time when both Jews and Gentiles can be fellow heirs and of the same body (Church) and inherit all the same promises in

14. Christ. When this dispensation of grace ends, that is, when the Church Age ends, when God is finished bringing in the fullness of the Gentiles to complete His Church then God begins to deal with Israel again as a nation to bring them To Christ in Daniel’s 70th week. One more clear confirmation that God has set the Jews aside for a time before He deals with them to accept Christ is told in Book of Micah chapter 5 and confirmed in Revelations.

15. Micah 5:2-42 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out  of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been  from of old, from everlasting. 3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then  the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel. 4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the  LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. Micah 5:2 – the first part of these verses is well quoted every Christmas foretelling that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem as a King whose ways are from old, from everlasting indicating Jesus as also God made flesh.

16. Micah 5:2-4 2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out  of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been  from of old, from everlasting.3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then  the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children ofIsrael. 4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the  LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. Micah 5:3 – ‘Therefore will he give them up’. Who was given up. The answer is the Jews. The Jews rejected the Messiah born in Bethlehem and remain blinded till this day so the Kingdom promises to Israel spoken off by the prophets were put aside for a time.The Apostle Paul puts it this way in Romans 11:25,26.

17. Romans 11:25,26 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: Continuing with Micah 5:3 we see that Micah confirms the Jews being given up only for a time. Given up as far as God dealing with them to accept Christ as their Messiah. God is now using the Gospel to bring both Jews and Gentiles into the Kingdom of God and making them part of the Church – future rulers as priests and kings when Christ sets up His Kingdom. God will deal with the nation of Israel to return to Christ in earnest after the Church age is over.

18. Micah 5:3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then  the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children ofIsrael.   Micah confirms the Church age by saying the Jews will be given up ‘until’ the time the ‘she’ which travaileth hath brought forth. Who is ‘she’? The answer is the Church. When is her time to travail to bring forth. The answer is found in Rev 12 in the story of the sun clothed woman that travailed and brought a ‘manchild’ who was caught up to God’s throne. Rev 12:1-5 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 5 And she brought forth a manchild, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

19. Rev 12:1-5 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 5 And she brought forth a manchild, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. A study of Rev 12:1-5 when interpreted correctly is the woman is the Church. Within the Church both the good wheat and bad wheat; good fish and bad fish; foolish virgins and the wise (parables of Jesus –Matt 13,25). The Child within the woman represents the good seed within the professing Church. The rapture is approaching in which the Child (the good seed) will be caught up (raptured) to meet the Lord. The remainder of Rev 12 tells us what happens to the woman (church left behind composed of bad or unsaved seed goes into the great 3 ½ year tribulation period).

20. Micah 5:3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then  the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.   The remainder of Micah 5:3 says that a remnant of his brethren (clearly speaking of the Jews – brethren related to Jesus – the one born in Bethlehem) shall return to the Children of Israel. Who is this remnant that will be a witness to Israel after the Church age? We are not disappointed by scripture for we read in Rev 7:4-8 of the 144,000 saved Jews. Notice Rev 7 in chart above is fulfilled right at the end of the Church age.

21. Rev 7:4-8 (angels sent from heaven to seal) And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. 5 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8 Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. Rev 14:1-5 (144,000 as seen of earth) 1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many

22. waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: 3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. 4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.1  5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

23. Micah 5:2-4 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out  of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been  from of old, from everlasting. 3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then  the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children ofIsrael.4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the  LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth. Micah now ends by saying that ‘he’ (one born in Bethlehem’) shall stand and feed the nations and will be great unto the ends of the earth. This then is clearly a Messianic prophecy fulfilled when Christ returns. To sum up Micah 5:2:4 we have the birth of Messiah in Bethlehem; his rejection by His brethren causing them to be given up (Kingdom promises put aside) until the Church age

24. runs it’s course and the rapture has taken place. Then the 144,000(firstfruits of Israel to turn to Christ) will be a witness to the children of Israel. Christ returns and all Israel will be saved and Christ’s name will be great unto the ends of the earth (Millennium).

25. Blessings and Curses spoken by Moses Before we study phase 1 of timeframe 2 of the mass return, it is good to review history of Jews based on God’s prophetic Covenant Word spoken beforehand by Moses. Mosaic Covenant tells us God’s blessings on Jews based on obedience and curses based on disobedience. Blessings and curses as outlined by Moses in Deut 28 and Lev 26 Blessings from the days of Joshua reaching their height in days of David and Solomon.

26. Deut 1-13 (blessings)And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God. 3 Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field. 4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.  5 Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store. 6 Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 7 The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways. 8 The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses, and in all that thou settest thine hand unto; and he shall bless thee in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

27.  9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways. 10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the Lord; and they shall be afraid of thee. 11 And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body, and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee. 12 The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow. 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:

28. Lev 26:1-13 (blessings) Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God. 2 Ye shall keep my Sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the Lord. 3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them; 4 Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. 5 And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely. 6 And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land. 7 And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. 8 And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.

29. 9 For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you. 10 And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new. 11 And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you. 12 And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people. 13 I am the Lord your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.

30. Following King Solomon’s death nation of Israel became divided. Two capitols: Jerusalem; Samaria

31. Kingdom of Israel ended by the Assyrians 721 B.C.. Judah by 586 B.C. by Babylonians under King Nebuchadnezzar

32. Above is a chart concerning the history of 12 tribes of Israel after the came out of Egypt under Joshua. Sin and disobedience brought about the Assyrian captivity in 721 B.C followed by the Babylonian captivity 606 B.C. - 586 B.C resulting in the 70 year exile in which the land rested with all 12 tribes now scattered. The curses that covered this period of time of Jewish history for disobedience can be found in Duet 28 and Lev 26.

33. Curses from Solomon’s divided Kingdom (Kingdom of Israel and Judah) to 70 yr exile and siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians Deuteronomy 68:14-64(curses)14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store.18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.20 The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until

34. thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.21 The Lord shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it. 22 The Lord shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the sword, and with blasting, and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.23 And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.24 The Lord shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust: from heaven shall it come down upon thee, until thou be destroyed.25 The Lord shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.26 And thy carcass shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, and unto the beasts of the earth, and no man shall fray them away.

35. 27 The Lord will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.28 The Lord shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart:29 And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee.30 Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: thou shalt build an house, and thou shalt not dwell therein: thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.31 Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass shall be violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue them.32 Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand.

36. 33 The fruit of thy land, and all thy labors, shall a nation which thou knowest not eat up; and thou shalt be only oppressed and crushed away: 34 So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.35 The Lord shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.36 The Lord shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.37 And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all nations whither the Lord shall lead thee.38 Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in; for the locust shall consume it. 39 Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink of the wine, nor gather the grapes; for the worms shall eat them.40 Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with the oil; for thine olive shall cast his fruit.

37. 41 Thou shalt beget sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them; for they shall go into captivity.42 All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locust consume.43 The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low.44 He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee: 46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.47 Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things;48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.49 The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from far, from

38. the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: 51 And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.52 And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the Lord thy God hath given thee.53 And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath given thee, in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee:54 So that the man that is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children which he shall leave:55 So that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his

39. children whom he shall eat: because he hath nothing left himin the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee in all thy gates.56 The tender and delicate woman among you, which would not adventure to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,57 And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.58 If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD;59 Then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance.60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written

40. in the book of this law, them will the Lord bring upon thee, 62 And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for multitude; because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the Lord thy God.63 And it shall come to pass, that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it. 64 And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

41. Leviticus 26:14-46But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;15 And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:16 I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.17 And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.19 And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:20 And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.21 And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.

42. 22 I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate.23 And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me;24 Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins. 25 And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.26 And when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.27 And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;28 Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.29 And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.30 And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your

43. images, and cast your carcasses upon the carcasses of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.31 And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savoir of your sweet odours.32 And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it. 33 And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.34 Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her Sabbaths.35 As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your Sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it. 36 And upon them that are left alive of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.37 And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have no power to

44. stand before your enemies.38 And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them. From the 70 yr captivity to Antichrist’s Empire over 2500 years later When you readDeut 68:65-67think of pictures of the holocaust that occurred during Hitler's reign and startling accuracy of Moses' prophetic outline of Jewish history. Deut 68: 63-67  63 And it shall come to pass, that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it. 64 And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

45. 65 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the Lord shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind: 66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life: 67 In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even! and at even thou shalt say, Would God it were morning! For the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see. Lev 26:39 39 And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them."

46. Scattered Jews are to return to Egypt - why! Moses final words of Deut 28. Verse 68 Deut 28:6868 And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

47. Egypt plays a very important role in timeframe 2 – mass return Moses says the Jews that are still scattered among thenations for over 2500 years will return to Egypt by ships. They are not coming from Israel to Egypt by ship because you would normally do that by land. They are coming from nations where they have been scattered for over 2500 years that began first with the Assyrian captivity in 721 B.C. and the Babylonian captivity began in 606 B.C. and those scattered when Herod’s temple was destroyed by the Roman s under Titus in 70 A.D. 68 And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships This is the Lord’s doing. Many have the understanding that after the Jews have been scattered for over 2500 years that God will bring them back to land of Israel not Egypt and they are correct but Egypt first. But why. Ezek 20:33-38 answers the question

48. Ezekiel 20:33-38 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you: 34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. 35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face. 36 Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD. 37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant: 38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am the LORD. Ezek 20:33-38 is covered much more in detail in timeframe 2 phase 3, this verse provides a basic outline for what God says He wants to do as part of the process of the mass return.

49. God says that He lives, and states His goal. He will rule over them and He will use His fury to do it. • God is going to bring them out of the nations where they have been scattered but this will take His fury poured out • God is going to bring them into the wilderness of the people. This wilderness is the wilderness of Egypt. Called the wilderness of the people because this is where they are gathered together. Most likely near the ancient land of Goshen because they have to cross the Red Sea again as we shall see. • There, in the wilderness, God is going to plead with them face to face as He did in the days of Moses when they wandered for 40 years • Cause the Jews to pass under the rod is likened to a shepherd who would count his sheep as they came in or out of the fold. If one is lost he would seek it out. The fold will be those that repent and turn to God - the God of their fathers - Jehovah.

50. God will bring them into the bond of the Covenant. The Jews that repent in the fold will says that He lives, and states His goal. He will rule over them and He will use His fury to do it. This Covenant  would be the Mosaic covenant which was conditional in that it required obedience for the Jews to keep their land (Deut 29:12,13). Deut 29:12,1312 That thou shouldest enter into covenant with the Lord thy God, and into his oath, which the Lord thy God maketh with thee this day:13 That he may establish thee today for a people unto himself, and that he may be unto thee a God, as he hath said unto thee, and as he hath sworn unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. • Lastly, the ones that rebel will die in the wilderness and enter the land of Israel. The repentant fold will come out of Egypt a second time (first was under Moses) and will come back into their land in Covenant with God.
