Who owned the house, the car, the book, the rights before you? During a Jubilee year, everything is returned to the original owner. Who owns ALL the LAND, and all the cattle on 1,000 hills? Every 50 years is a Jubilee year. 1867 was a remarkable year of Jubilee. The next was 1917, followed by the Jubilee year of 1967. We were all jubilant in 2017, and the next is 2067.  In “The ORACLE” author and Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, reviews the historical shifts in ruling governments that occurred during Biblical Jubilee years.   Leviticus 25:8-10 lays out the laws for what takes place. A Jubilee is when all things go back to their original owner!  2067 minus the 7 years of Tribulation, is 2060. In 2024 as God shakes the nation’s, we are to keep focused and trust in God’s supernatural Ways. “We are all ignorant, just about different things.” Mark Twain an athiest.

Did you know that the time clock of the return of Jesus Christ isn’t based on America’s timeline? It’s based on what is happening in Israel. Did you know Jesus wasn’t a Christian, that He is a Jew. He celebrated and kept the Jewish holy days and customs, as well as the feasts of the LORD. He didn’t come to eradicate the writing of the Prophets, He came to fulfill all the prophecies that God had recorded in the Bible.

When Jesus returns, He isn’t returning to the United States. The Bible says He is going to plant His foot down on the Mount of Olives and go through the Eastern Gate, which is currently sealed off with 16 feet of concrete. A cemetery was also placed in front of that gate because touching the dead makes a Jew considered unclean and unable to enter the Temple, which is considered Holy. The Word of GOD says He will return there and from there He will rule and reign for 1,000 years. Every Word of God shall come to pass.

The final battle isn’t going to be on U.S. soil. It’s going to be in the Valley of Megiddo, in Israel. The Bible says as the nations wage war against Israel Jesus will come and destroy His enemies with the breath of His mouth. 2 Thess 2:8

GOD did not replace the Jews with Christians as some believe. We are actually grafted in with them as you would graft a wild branch into an existing tree. The Word of GOD says, “When you touch Israel, you touch the Apple of GOD’s eye.” Zechariah 2:8

“He that keeps Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps. The LORD is thy keeper.” Psalm 121:4

“I will bless those that bless you and I will curse those that curse you.” Genesis 12:3

We are also commanded to pray for the peace of Jerusalem in Psalm 122.

ISRAEL matters. 🇮🇱

The Jubilee year of 1867, and in every Jubilee Year following, more of God’s promises have been in the news.   Jews around the world celebrate the prophetically fulfilled Law of Jubilee Years on Friday night Shabbat. All the words specifically recorded by God’s chosen prophets unfold according to His will.  Jonathan Cahn weaves the dates and times into a story that allows believers and non-believers to engage with God’s supernatural way. God reveals Truth to those who seek Him. Cahn received many visions as he sought the Lord for revelation & interpretation about the Jubilees of the past and future. Cahn accumulated volumes of factual, biblical material. In this brilliant book, Jonathan shares his inspired findings through a fictional prophet.

“The Jubilean Prophecies Revealed”  in the book is truth. It is the history of God’s promised restoration of the Jews to the land of Israel. The events and the people mentioned in this book present the history of Israel. This brief outline organizes Israel’s history in a linear way in order to simplify the nuggets within the text for greater understanding. The Law of Jubilee is found in Leviticus chapter 25. “The return and restoration to your ancestral possession.” The Parasha – is a specific scripture that is read on a scheduled Shabbat around this word. God’s will is being done through events that He orchestrates through people like Mark Twain, an athiest who is completely unaware of how God is working through him. Consider how our Father has used you in His quest that “none should perish”. All that is good is from God. Elon Musk has a talent, a gift from God. Our Father used Twain, Musk and Trump for His glory. Many take credit for what God Almighty is doing.

In Ancient Times the land of Israel was described as a land flowing with milk & honey. In AD 66 The Jewish people in Judea revolted against Roman rule. A revolutionary government was set up. The Roman Emperor Nero sent one of his generals, AD 67, Vespasian to crush the revolt. The Jews began to leave the land. This began the timing of the Jubilee years. In 70 AD the Jewish people lost their homeland, Masada was their last stand. The defenders of Masada died by their own hand on Passover, the fifteenth of Nisan. The Romans remade Jerusalem into a pagan city and called it Capitolina. The land was renamed Palaestina, meaning land of the Philistines. Then the Jewish people were driven into exile, the land withered away. When the Assyrian Empire collapsed, at the end of the 7th century before Christ, two powers were left to battle for supremacy Egypt and Babylonia. In Carchemish Babylonia dealt a decisive blow against Egypt and became the supreme power of the Middle East. 605 years before Christ, the Babylonians swept south & west through Syria & Israel. In 1517 AD, the land was transferred to the Ottoman Empire. They were driven out in 1917 by Allenby.

Jubilee of 1867 –the return & restoration. Moses prophesied, “a stranger would come from a far away land.”Deut. 9:22-23 Mark Twain was “the stranger”, who journeyed across the world on a steamship. Mark’s final destination, the land of Israel, the city of Jerusalem. Mark Twain described the land as DESOLATE. The exact word of Moses came out of his mouth. His real name Samuel Clements which means – ‘God has heard’ and ‘God is about to show His mercy’. Then we discover that Mark Twain and Charles Warren were in Jerusalem at the same time. Twain lodged in the same place as Warren. Zechariah 2:1-2 foretold that “a man with a measuring line to measure Jerusalem, comfort Zion, and choose Jerusalem” Enter Charles Warren, a British officer, who was sent to the Land of Israel to survey & map out the city of Jerusalem. It was the first extensive excavation of biblical Jerusalem and the foundations of the Temple. The man with the measuring line was a sign that God was about to bring restoration, He was about to build something. Charles Warren uncovered the walls of the ancient city, and the ancient gates.  He uncovered the Temple Mount. In 1867, Charles divinely just stumbled upon a shaft. This shaft led to what had been hidden for 2,000 years, the City of David.

The shaft led to the ancient water system of Jerusalem. To live, man needs water. It was the beginning of the restoration. The first waves of Jews came to the land. The land of Israel was in the hands of the Ottoman Empire. A conflict over the star of Bethlehem led to the Crimean War. Due to massive loans the Ottoman empire was bankrupt. A new law was enacted allowing foreigners to purchase land. Jewish people secretly began buying land in their ancient land. In 1867 the release of the land began. Between the Jubilees of 1867 to 1917. The Jewish people brought the land to life. In 1914 major persecution broke out in the lands of their exile during the First World War.  The return was a trickle… a stream… then a river. The land had been under Ottoman rule since Martin Luther. Theodor Hertzl, was the founder of Zionism 1897. Hertzl was called the father of the Jewish state. He prophesied in 50 years everyone will know Zionism – which is what is known as the movement of Jews returning to the land and the restoration of the nation. Between the Jubilees, in 1916 British Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary, Lloyd George & Arthur Balfour, (folks in favor of a Jewish homeland) 1916 was the year in which Balfour (God’s choice) rose to power.

Jubilee of 1917 – the land is returned to the original owner. Britain drew up the Balfour Declaration. USA President Woodrow Wilson was in favor. It established in Palestine a national home for the Jewish people. It declared “the return of the land to the original owner.” 2,500 years earlier Cyrus allowed the Jewish people to leave their exile and return to their homeland. From ancient times, God has used the words of kings and world rulers to confirm His purposes. His way is not ours. The “parasha” the Sabbath before the declaration is found in Genesis 12. It established the ancestral right forever. The right of Jewish people to return to the land goes back to Abraham. The British Empire didn’t have the land to give. It was in the hands of the Ottoman Empire. In 1917 General Edmund Allenby, an avid Bible student, by providence, became commander of the British-led forces in Egypt. Beersheba was Britain’s first major victory in the Middle East. Beersheba was the first place in the land to be claimed by Abraham and his children and the first to be restored. Allenby led the British forces to drive the Ottoman Empire out of the land, the liberation of Jerusalem. The Balfour Declaration was signed and Beersheba was regained on the same day. The “parasha” was Genesis 21:31. Two days after the decree was signed Allenby and his British forces entered the gates of the City of Jerusalem.

Between the Jubilees… 1917 to 1967 The Ottoman Empire stood against the restoration of the Jewish people and it collapsed! Between the two world wars, the British Empire blocked ships carrying Jewish refugees from the Holocaust to the land of Israel. It collapsed! America was raised to power. Truman took office in 1945. He had sympathy for the Jews. He told the British to release her 100,000 Holocaust, Jewish refugees to their homeland. “parasha” Deut. 30:3-5. 1947 U.N. resolution passed with Truman’s influence, Israel was recognized as a nation. British occupation ended. The U.N. divided the land into a Jewish state and an Arab state. Jerusalem was cut off from the new nation. Israel’s return to the land revived an old conflict of two brothers: Jacob & Esau, Jews & Arabs. 1948 One of the Arab nations, Jordon seizes Jerusalem and much of the West Bank. In 1948 President Truman (God’s choice) was responsible for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It proclaims the right of everyone to return to his country. It is the year of Israel’s return & rebirth. David Ben-Gurion was the first Prime Minister of Israel. The Hebrew word that means “you shall return” are the Hebrew letters for 1948!

Jubilee of 1967 – Jerusalem Restored to Israel. In 1967 the world is stunned by the victory of Israel in the Six-Day War – The Soviet Union sent a false report to Egypt that Israel was going to attack. 200,000 enemy troops were on Israel’s border. Israel made a sudden strike and destroyed the air force of the surrounding Arab nations. Then the command was given; take the city. For the first time in 2,000 years Israeli soldiers entered Jerusalem. On June 7, 1967 Soldiers and priests entered Jerusalem through the Lion’s Gate. The “shofar” was blown, at the time if the wheat harvest, on the threshing floor, purchased by David, now the site of the Temple Mount. There were 1,333 days from the fall of Jerusalem to the loss of Masada and 1,333 days from the return to Masada and to the return to Jerusalem. The Law of Reversal.
Between the Jubilees… 1967 to 2017. The dynamics of the Middle East changed forever. The failure of Arab nationalism opened the door for radical Islam. Regardless of ongoing attacks, Jerusalem continues to exist. The Jewish people continue to return to their land.

In 1948, Israel had only 30 Messianic Jews, 70 years later… the estimate in the year of 2018 was that there were 30,000 Messianic Jews in Israel. While the world still refused to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, enter the Jubilee Year of 2017. USA President Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Soros was defeated in his expensive campaign to control election. Our God is mighty to be praised. His will be done on earth. In 2017, the USA was the preeminent world power and Trump’s proclamation granted legal authority for the Jewish people to return to Israel. The Jerusalem Declaration. The Final Jubilee will be the return of Yeshua to rule & reign over His Kingdom from Jerusalem. This will be a complete restoration. A Shoresh Tour of Israel

What is the secret? What is the difference from one generation to the next? Thoughts from long ago about a small, but protected group of people. “If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one quarter of one percent of the human race.  It suggests a nebulous puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way.  Properly, the Jew ought HARDLY to be heard of, but he is heard of, has always been heard of.  He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his importance is extravagantly OUT of PROPORTION to the smallness of his bulk. His contributions to the world’s list of great names in literature, science, art, music, finance, medicine and abstruse learning are also very out of proportion to the WEAKNESS of HIS NUMBERS.  He has made a marvelous fight in this world in all ages; and has DONE IT WITH his HANDS TIED BEHIND HIM. He could be vain of himself and be excused for it.  The Egyptians, the Babylonians and the Persians rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greeks and Romans followed and made a vast noise, and they were gone; other people have sprung up and held their torch high for a time but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now, and have vanished. The Jew saw them all, survived them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities, of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert but aggressive mind.  Mark Twain in 1887. “All things are mortal but the Jews; all other forces pass, but he remains.  What is the secret of Israel’s immortality? ” The difference is GOD!

In 1903, on his last visit to his in-laws, Mark Twain (1835-1910) posed for this photograph with his friend, John T. Lewis (1835-1906), who was born a free man in Maryland and who had migrated to upstate New York. They met in 1877 after John saved the lives of Mark Twain’s sister-in-law and her daughter by stopping a runaway carriage at no small risk to his own safety. John Lewis was an Elder in the Church of the Brethren, and he and Mark Twain often talked about religion. John loved to read, and Mark sent John every one of his books, with a loving inscription in each one. After John retired from farming, Mark and his in-laws arranged to have him receive a pension. John Lewis was one of the real-life people upon whom he based the character of Jim in Huck Finn. Mark
Twain’s friendship with John was hardly normal; of all the white authors in this period, Mark was the one most fully immersed in and appreciative of African  culture.  Near the end of Mark’s life he recalled a time in New York  when he was walking with another black friend, George Griffin, and people stared at them: “a ‘white man’ & a negro walking together was a new spectacle to them. “My companionship is proper: in some ways George was my equal, in some others my superior.”  Huckleberry Finn published in 1884 and it is about a racist boy’s realization of the full humanity of a fugitive slave. Ten years later, Twain would deconstruct the very idea of race itself as nothing more than “a fiction of law and custom” without any basis in biology. Mark Twain talked about racial ideology in the most powerful, eloquent, and instructive way I have ever read.”
