Israel at Seventy and the Bible\u2019s Mathematics<\/p><\/div>\n
I just turned 70 years old, and I mean old. My mind says 70 is the new 50, my body says no. In 2018 Israel will be 70 years old as a re-established State. In America we just witnessed the most problematic election in history with two candidates laboring to be the \u201clesser of two evils\u201d. Europe is seeing its EU come apart; the Middle East is a battleground of many nations, Islamic Jihadists and factions. Asia sees and aggressive and expansionist Communist China seizing territory. 2017 will be a critical year; many ask will Israel survive as the \u201cKings of the north and south\u201d unite to oppose her? 70 Nations just met to try to impose a non-Biblical \u201cpeace\u201d upon Israel. The answer seems to be in the numbers, gematria<\/a>.<\/p>\n Numbers have great meaning in Hebraic thought; they are a form of icon, they convey meanings to statements. Without being too complicated, certain numbers and combinations give impact to statements. The number seven has Divine influence. Yeshua (Jesus) said to forgive a transgression seventy times seven, in short, without limit. Six denotes a human and non-Divine meaning; the number of a man is \u201c666\u201d. This has been misconstrued into many forms, but it means non-Divine. Twelve is the most commonly used number, with 12 Tribes from 12 brothers, 12 Apostles from at least 70 Disciples, and 144,000 the \u201cRemainder\u201d, the leaders of Revelation.<\/p>\n
