Isaiah 17 Destruction of Damascus (Syria)...

hmmm vid wont embed

In the last days, the Bible tells us of a horrible series of events that will take place in the lands of Israel and Syria. One of these events is the disappearance of Damascus as one of the premiere cities in the world. The oldest continuously inhabited city on the planet, Damascus has witnessed at least 5,000 years of human history, and some historians believe the city actually dates back to the seventh millennium BC. In fact, Paul was on the road to Damascus when Christ first appeared to Him, an event that transformed not only his life, but the course of human history.

In the very near future, Damascus will once again play a major role in human events. The prophet Isaiah provides us with God’s commentary on a future conflict between Damascus and Israel, and in so doing, he reveals certain prophecies which have been partially fulfilled in the past. However, the ultimate fulfillment of Isaiah 17 remains in the future. The current existence of Damascus, which will one day cease to be a city, as well as the historical absence of the coalition of nations prophesied to attack Israel and be destroyed by God, is proof that Isaiah 17 prophesies events yet future.

1 star eh...its Fact , Truth and Prophecy happening before our eyes WAKE up before its to late

It's getting syrious

Yeah well with isreal bombing there border ....

It would help to provide context, setting, and so forth, as well as relationship to the overall story that Scripture is telling.

read it isaiah 17 1-14

That's not what I meant exactly.

For example, who is speaking and who is being spoken to? Where does this writing appear in the overall story that Scripture is telling? What did the original audience think the writer was saying? Are there parallel passages elsewhere in Scripture, whether in the canon or in non-canonical writings?

the destruction not only of Syria but also of Israel!

Should this mark the coming of the true Israel?

While Syria and Israel lie in ruin, the enemies of Israel will view her suffering as an opportunity to invade, their ultimate goal to destroy her forever. However, God has a different plan in mind, and He will destroy these invaders Himself. A more in depth illustration of this attack is foreseen in Psalm 83

“O God, don’t sit idly by, silent and inactive! Don’t you hear the tumult of your enemies? Don’t you see what your arrogant enemies are doing? They devise crafty schemes against your people, laying plans against your precious ones. ‘Come,’ they say, ‘let us wipe out Israel as a nation. We will destroy the very memory of its existence.’ This was their unanimous decision. They signed a treaty as allies against you – these Edomites and Ishmaelites, Moabites and Hagrites, Gebalites, Ammonites, and Amalekites, and people from Philistia and Tyre. Assyria has joined them, too, and is allied with the descendants of Lot. Do to them as you did to the Midianites or as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River. They were destroyed at Endor, and their decaying corpses fertilized the soil. Let their mighty nobles die as Oreb and Zeeb did. Let all their princes die like Zebah and Zalmunna, for they said, ‘Let us seize for our own use these pasturelands of God!’ O my God, blow them away like whirling dust, like chaff before the wind! As a fire roars through a forest and as a flame sets mountains ablaze, chase them with your fierce storms; terrify them with your tempests. Utterly disgrace them until they submit to your name, O Lord. Let them be ashamed and terrified forever. Make them failures in everything they do, until they learn that you alone are called the Lord, that you alone are the Most High, supreme over all the earth.” Psalm 83

Thread: something definetely going on in Israel (Page 3)

Russia condemns the Israeli airstrikes on Syria as "Flagrant violation of the UN Charter"

what shall you do if Isaiah is meant to be fulfilled after 500 years? And Gog and Magog - after 1000 years? Shall we all die because of someone's misinterpretation of the Holy Bible? Thanks, but I am out of that, despite being devote person. I care of what is here and now and how God helps in our times to us. I will not sing ? hallelujah" for those who will attack, kill and ruin our lives in a broader sense. In this case it is Israel. Tomorrow it might be someone else. Enough excuses from the Holy Scripture! We are not going to bring back the dark ages and burning stakes with people!

...means Israel and Syria will be destroyed?

Hi, OP why did you skip start of Isaiah?
read it
and you will know what is writen in Isaiah 17 and who is to blame for: the evil Zionista!!!

Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth!
For the Lord has spoken:
“I reared children and brought them up,but they have rebelled against me. The ox knows its master,
the donkey its owner’s manger, but Israel does not know,
my people do not understand.”

Woe to the sinful nation,a people whose guilt is great,
a brood of evildoers, children given to corruption!
They have forsaken the Lord; they have spurned the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on him.

Why should you be beaten anymore? Why do you persist in rebellion? Your whole head is injured,
your whole heart afflicted.
From the sole of your foot to the top of your head
there is no soundness only wounds and welts
and open sores,not cleansed or bandaged
or soothed with olive oil.

Your country is desolate,
your cities burned with fire;
your fields are being stripped by foreigners
right before you,
laid waste as when overthrown by strangers.

Daughter Zion is left
like a shelter in a vineyard,
like a hut in a cucumber field,
like a city under siege.
Unless the Lord Almighty
had left us some survivors,
we would have become like Sodom,
we would have been like Gomorrah.
