Pro-and-Anti-Israel Rallies Take Place Throughout the World
JERUSALEM (Worthy News)– As the conflict in Gaza entered its third week, pro-and-anti Israel rallies took place throughout the world. Since the beginning of the war, a surge in anti-Jewish hate crimes has taken place especially in Europe, leading to fears among Jewish communities that Europe is no longer a safe haven for its population.
Bible prophecy scholars point to a rise of antisemitism is a sign of the last days as God is using the hatred for the Jewish people to bring forth many “hunters” to “hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill” to drive them back to their national homeland.
Jeremiah 16:14-16 “Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when it shall no longer be said, ‘As the LORD lives who brought up the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt,’ but ‘As the LORD lives who brought up the people of Israel out of the north country and out of all the countries where he had driven them.’ For I will bring them back to their own land that I gave to their fathers. “Behold, I am sending for many fishers, declares the LORD, and they shall catch them. And afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks.
