LEBANON AND OBADIAH: A BIBLE PROPHET FOR TODAY黎巴嫩和俄巴底亞書:一本聖經先知今日

The recent Israeli/Hizb’Allah war in Lebanon is part of the larger Israeli confrontation with the Palestinians which is outlined in the Bible prophet Obadiah.以色列最近/ ( Hizb '安拉在黎巴嫩戰爭的一部分,更大的對抗,以色列與巴勒斯坦人,其中概述了在聖經中的先知俄巴底亞書。 This is the smallest of the Old Testament prophecies containing only 21 verses but it is unique and is highly valuable in understanding God’s purpose with Israel today and in the immediate future.這是最小的舊約聖經的預言載只有21韻文,但它是獨一無二的,是十分寶貴的認識上帝的目的,與以色列今天在不久的將來。

Obadiah’s latter day prophecy has two major sections, They are a declaration of God’s anger directed against “Edom”, “Esau” and “Teman”, together with eight reasons for that anger [俄巴底亞書的,後者天的預言有兩個主要部分,他們是一個宣言上帝的憤怒針對“益登” , “以掃”和“轉發” ,連同八原因是憤怒[ Oba 1:10-16 oba 1:10-16 [+/-]
"For violence against your brother Jacob (read Israel) . . . you shall be cut off forever . . . you should not have . . . (eight times)] and nominating the permanent Israeli possession of five geographical areas [ “暴力侵害你的兄弟雅各(閱讀以色列) 。 。 。你應切斷永遠… … 。你不應該有。 。 。 ( 8倍) ]和提名常駐以色列藏有5地域[ Oba 1:17-21 oba 1:17-21 [+/-]
]. ] 。 Today we know them as Gaza, the Kingdom of Jordan divided by the prophecy into north and south, the West Bank and south Lebanon.今天,我們知道他們作為加沙地帶,約旦王國除以預言到北方和南方,西岸和黎巴嫩南部。 Since all these areas are populated by the Palestinians, it is clear that Obadiah’s Edom, Esau and Teman represent the current Palestinians.由於所有這些地區的人口由巴勒斯坦人,這是明確表示,俄巴底亞書的益登科技,以掃和轉發代表目前的巴勒斯坦人。

It is worth noting that Obadiah depicts natural Israel as “possess”ing these five areas without any visible presence of Jesus Christ.值得注意的是,俄巴底亞書描繪自然以色列“擁有”荷蘭這五個方面沒有任何可見的存在,耶穌基督。 For example例如: Oba 1:17-18 oba 1:17-18 [+/-]
, “The house of Jacob shall possess their possessions. “眾議院雅各布應具備其財產。 The house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame; but the house of Esau shall be stubble” and眾議院雅各布應發生火警,和眾議院的約瑟夫火焰;但眾議院以掃應茬“ Oba 1:19 oba 1時19分 [+/-]
, “Benjamin shall possess Gilead” [north Jordan]. “本傑明應具備基列” [北約旦] 。 From this very specific terminology it is suggested that these five “possessions” are achieved by Israel’s armed forces and take place before Christ’s return in our future.從這個非常具體的術語,這是建議,這些五國“財產”是實現以色列的武裝力量,並採取地方之前,基督的回報,在我們的未來。

As a guesstimate of a time frame, note that the Kingdom of Jordan at present is no antagonist of Israel and it is impossible to allocate a time interval for the deterioration of relations between Israel and Jordan, such that Israel will be provoked to “possess” Jordan.作為一個猜測的一個時間內,請注意,約旦王國,目前是沒有拮抗劑以色列和是不可能的分配的時間間隔之間關係惡化以色列和約旦,例如,以色列將挑起“擁有”約旦。

The current conflict in the Holy Land involves the two antagonists of Obadiah’s prophecy and two of the five areas, south Lebanon and Gaza.目前的衝突在聖地涉及2拮抗劑的俄巴底亞書的預言和兩個五個重點領域,黎巴嫩南部和加沙地帶。 It is reasonable to suggest that, for the past 24 years, the Holy Land has experienced the prelude to Israel’s possession of these areas.它是合理的建議,為過去24年,聖地經歷了序幕,以色列擁有這些地區。 Why 24 years and why just the prelude?為什麼24年來,為什麼剛才的前奏?

Israel’s first full scale invasion of Lebanon took place in 1982, some 24 years ago, and terminated in her withdrawal in 2000.以色列的第一次全面的大規模入侵黎巴嫩發生在1982年,大約24年前,並終止了她在撤出在2000年。 Israel did not achieve “possession”, that is, incorporation into Greater Israel as Obadiah indicates will happen.以色列沒有達到“藏” ,即是納入更大的以色列作為俄巴底亞書表明會發生。 A similar situation has occurred in 2006.類似的情況發生在2006年。 But in 2006 Hizb’Allah has not been disarmed nor has it withdrawn from south Lebanon.但在2006年hizb'allah並沒有被解除武裝,它也沒有撤回從黎巴嫩南部撤軍。 A future resumption of hostilities is widely expected.未來恢復敵對行動的普遍預期。 How many times will Israel take on her enemies on her north border before deciding to permanently “possess” this troublesome location?多少次,以色列將採取對她的敵人對她的北邊界,然後才決定永久“擁有”這個麻煩的位置? How many thousand rockets on her major cities will Israel endure before drastic action?有多少千火箭,她的主要城市將以色列忍受之前,激烈的行動呢? Gaza is an even more central threat to Israel.加沙是一個更中央對以色列構成威脅。 Obadiah’s prophecy will be activated only when Israel decides to stay permanently in these areas.俄巴底亞書的預言將被激活,只有當以色列決定將永久留在這些地區。

As Israel will progressively move through possessing these five areas, can you imagine the world’s hysterical reactions?作為以色列將逐步動議通過擁有這五個方面,你能想像世界上的歇斯底里的反應呢? The ravings in the UN will be awesome.該ravings在聯合國的會可怕。 The BBC will be beside itself.英國廣播公司將旁邊的本身。 The Arabs will be off their heads.阿拉伯人將關閉他們的元首。 The Moslems will threaten.穆斯林將威脅。 Out of these predictable expressions of international outrage, a logical progression presents itself – all nations against Jerusalem, possibly in the form of the UN.出於這些可預見的表達國際公憤,一個合乎邏輯的進展介紹了自己-所有國家對耶路撒冷,可能在形式聯合國。 “Then the Lord will go forth and fight against those nations” “然後,耶和華必去提出和打擊這些國家的” Zechariah 14:3撒迦利亞書14時03分 [+/-]
with Jesus establishing his world rule in Jerusalem when “out of Zion the law shall go forth and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem”與耶穌建立他的世界統治在耶路撒冷時, “錫安法律應去提出和Word的主從耶路撒冷” Micah 4:3彌迦4:3 [+/-]
.

Obadiah is indeed an outstanding prophecy for today and one deserving of the closest attention.俄巴底亞書實在是一個傑出的預言,今天和一個值得密切的關注。
