III. JEWS JOIN THE MOVEMENT

Extract:
On June 24, 1841, Der Orient carried a long letter from Palestine in which the
writer advocated the resettlement of Palestine and the appointment of a Jewish
administration under the protection and guarantee of several of the Great
Powers. He quite openly referred to the dominant role to be played by Great
Britain and to the incalculable advantages which she would derive from such an
arrangement. He argued that by establishing a Jewish state between the Nile, the
Euphrates and the Taurus, England would restore the threatened balance in the
Near and Middle East.

Shalom Yair,
I've sent you a link to one of my website blogs which details an archaeological
discovery of an ancient Scythian city in central Asia. Thought you might find it
interesting. It is the third story down in the link below.

3. Question on Israel in the
"Wilderness" in the Latter Times

Hi Yair,
Do you beleive that the Wilderness spoken of in Hos 2 refers to a physical
desert someplace? Or could it have some spiritual meaning?
Your time is much appreciated.
Regards,
Benayahu
================================================
Answer:
Hose refers to Israel being brought into the Wilderness and so does Ezekiel:
http://britam.org/hosea2.html
[Hosea 2:14] THEREFORE, BEHOLD, I WILL
ALLURE HER, AND BRING HER INTO THE WILDERNESS, AND SPEAK COMFORTABLY UNTO
HER.
Some say "Wilderness" refers to North America. The early Pilgrim Pioneers
themselves had a kind of notion like this. They envisioned themselves as
"Israelite" Pilgrims in the Wilderness creating a "New Zion".
The Bringing into the Wilderness is also recalled by Ezekiel:
AND I WILL BRING YOU INTO THE WILDERNESS OF THE PEOPLE, AND THERE WILL I PLEAD
WITH YOU FACE TO FACE [Ezekiel 20:35].
This is a theme worth more study.
We would welcome the opinions of others on this subject but request that all
opinions give Biblical verses for reference.
Some say that Israel being brought into the "Wilderness" refers to a future
event;
It could apply to the general state of Exile of the Ten Tribes at present which
is the opinion I tend towards
at the moment.
Another opinion applies the notion of Israel in the "Wilderness" to North
America.
