"Until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled"

This is a continuation of the previous post, not the Special Edition. Please take note.



In Luke's version of the Olivet discourse(Matt. 24-25), Jesus prophesied that 'Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled'(Luke 21:24). In the next four verses, the Lord Himself put a time frame on the 'times of the Gentiles,' which began with the Babylonian captivity in 606 BC and will continue to the end of the Tribulation and the coming of Christ.

In Israel's famous Six Day War, the war hero General Moshe Dayan planed the Israeli flag on the Muslim Dome of the Rock(which now occupies the place where the Jews must rebuild their temple). In a conciliatory move toward his Muslim captives, he decided to take down the flag and give the Muslims control over that sacred spot. This strange and placatory act fulfilled the prophecy of Luke. Indeed, the "times of the Gentiles" have not yet come to an end.

God bless you all. Any questions or doubts, email avadakedav@hotmail.com.
