Objective folks clearly see that the ancient land deed and document that we know as the Holy Bible trumps all other claims and lines drawn by mere mortals for the nation and people of Israel:
Genesis 15:
18 On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying:
“To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates
Genesis 17:
7 And I will establish My covenant between Me and you [Abraham] and your descendants [through Isaac and Jacob] after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you. 8 Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God.”
Mere mortals are also warned against trying to erase the lines God has drawn - from the Nile to the Euphrates - for their idolatrous ideas that are destined to get smashed. The nations can stir up the dirt and cause confusion and trouble and heartache, but when it all gets settled down, the Twelve Tribes of Israel will be at home in the Promised Land of Israel and the Arab occupation of the Jewish Homeland will be history, as their threat will have been removed and they will have been driven into the sea or transferred to the West (possibly to the Sahara) by the Anglo-Israeli alliance.
*Isaiah 11:13-14
Ephraim [British-Israelites] shall not envy Judah,
And Judah [Jews] shall not harass Ephraim.
14 But they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines toward the west;
Together they shall plunder the people of the East
Joel 3
1 “For behold, in those days and at that time,
When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 I will also gather all nations,
And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat;
And I will enter into judgment with them there
On account of My people, My heritage Israel,
Whom they have scattered among the nations;
They have also divided up My land.
Brit Am Israel's explanation of Isaiah 11
*[Isaiah 11:14] BUT THEY SHALL SWOOP DOWN UPON THE SHOULDER OF THE PHILISTINES IN THE WEST, AND TOGETHER THEY SHALL PLUNDER THE PEOPLE OF THE EAST. THEY SHALL PUT FORTH THEIR HAND AGAINST EDOM AND MOAB, AND THE AMMONITES SHALL OBEY THEM.
The above verse (Isaiah 11;14) concerning the Philistines as it has been translated (in the KJ and Orthodox Jewish "Koren" translation) is consistent with the simple Hebrew and with the context. Nevertheless, one of the intricacies of Biblical Hebrew is that often words and expressions may intentionally have more than one meaning. In this case the Hebrew may also be understood as saying,
"THEY SHALL FLY THE PHILISTINES AWAY WESTWARD”
The Hebrew says: "VeAFU BeCeTeF PLiSHTIM YaMaH..", i.e. wordforword:
"[veafu] And they will fly ((or cause to be flown)) [becetef] bywing [Plishtim] Phillistines [yama] towards the Sea ((or Towards the west)) ":
this may be interpreted to mean anyone of the following:
1.That the Philistines in the west are being flown against, OR
2. ALTERNATELY (and more consistently with the literal Hebrew) that they will be flown out westward, OR
3.BOTH EXPLANATIONS MAY PROVE CORRECT!
It is interesting to note that the word for westward is the Hebrew "Yamah" meaning literally "to the sea", and the sea was in the west.. The Palestinians used to repeatedly declare their intention of driving the Jews "into the sea" though now they use more openly that they want to kill all the Jews. On some subconscious mystical level the Palestinians may have been trying to redirect what is literally prophesied concerning their own destiny.
. i.e. The Palestinians shall be transported elsewhere by air flight "towards the sea", to somewhere in the west, perhaps to North Africa or to South America.
Not only does Scripture and its connected tradition identify modern nations with their ancestral counterparts, the Bible also indicates the final outcome of ancestral struggles that were begun long ago.
