Fulfilled Prophecies
« on: August 13, 2008, 10:19:39 PM »
Is it possible to write history thousands of years before it occurs? Did you know that in the TaNaCH (Torah) there are astounding and exact prophecies concerning Am Israel and the entire world?

Destruction of Iraq (Babylonian)
והיתה בבל צבי ממלכות תפארת גאון כשדים, כמהפכת אלקים את סדום ואת עמורה. לא תשב לנצח ולא תשכון עד דור ודור, ולא יהל שם ערבי ורועים לא ירבצו שם
Iraq was the capital Babylonian empire and had control over many countries and nations. Prophets Yirmiyahu and Yishayahu (zs'l) prophesied against all logic that Babylonian will be destroyed and ruined. They also promised "She'll never return and will turn into wilderness."

Am Israel Forever
לכו ונכחידם מגוי, ולא יזכר שם ישראל עוד
According to all history facts, the Jewish nation should have disappeared, c'v, a long time ago from history. The fact that Am Israel is existing and is alive is a miracle like no other. There was not one generation that nations did not try destroying us - whether it was spiritual or physical. The prophecy that Am Israel will exist is very much intact, b'h. AM ISRAEL CHAI VE'KAYAM.

Eternalness of the Holy Torah
הרי זו הבטחה שאין התורה משתכחת מזרעם, לגמרי
HaShem promised Am Israel that the Jewish nation will exist forever and the holy Torah will never be forgotten.

Destruction of the Second Temple
והצר לך בכל שעריך עד רדת חומותיך הגבוהות והבצורות, אשר אתה בוטח בהן בכל ארצך, והצר לך בכל שעריך בכל ארצך אשר נתן ה' אלקיך לך
The Torah prophesied that Yerushalayim and its gated cities of Judah's mountains will fall after siege. This was written long before gates were built. The Torah tells us the the cities will be fortified and the nation's safety will be within the gates. Both gates protecting the cities and the second temple was destroyed.

The Western Wall will never collapse
הנה זה עומד אחר כותלנו - אחר כותל מערבי של בית-המקדש, שנשבע לו הקב"ה שאינו חרב לעולם..."
"ולמה (דוקא הכותל המערבי)? ששכינה במערב
The prophecy is specifically about the Western Wall of the Second Temple. 2,000 years of exile passed, many wars on Yerushalayim, and the Western Wall will never collapse, b'h.

Prophecy on the exile
ונשארתם מתי מספר, בגויים אשר ינהג ה' אתכם שמה
The Torah told us 3,000 years ago Am Israel will have 4 exiles and will also be exiled from Eretz Israel. We will be spread out in the 4 corners of the world. We will be the "Wondering Jew"; the least number of people amongst nations of the world; and will never have complete rest till Moshiach's arrival, b'h.

Control over Eretz Israel during Exile
ועתידים בני ישמעאל לשלוט על הארץ הקדושה, בשעה שהיא ריקה מכל, זמן הרבה, כמו שהמילה שלהם ריקה בלי שלמות. והם יעכבו את בני ישראל לשוב למקומם, עד שתכלה הזכות ההיא של בני ישמעאל
The Zohar HaKadosh prophesied 1,800 years ago the following 4 things:
1. The Arabs will govern the Holy Land for a long time;
2. The land will be desolate and empty during their reign;
3. Am Israel will return to Eretz Israel while the Arabs are residing there and;
4. The Palestinians will delay many of the Jews returning to the Holy Land.

The Holy Land will be desolate during exile
והשימותי אני את הארץ, ושממו עליה אויביכם היושבים בה
No nation will be able to make Eretz Israel fruitful during the 2,000 years of Am Israel's absence.

Shabbat
ושמרו בני ישראל את השבת, לעשות את השבת לדורותם ברית עולם, ביני ובין בני ישראל אות היא לעולם. כי ששת ימים עשה ה' את השמים ואת הארץ וביום השביעי שבת וינפש
In addition to the prophecy that the Torah will never be forgotten by the Jews, HaShem gave us a unique promise that Am Israel will never cease to keep the holy Shabbat - the promise is a covenant between Am Israel and HKB'H.

Prophecy that the Wells of Wisdom will open
ובשית מאה שנין לשתיתאה, יתפתחון תרעי דחכמתא לעילא, ומבועי דחכמתא לתתא, ויתתקן עלמא. לאעלא בשביעאה. כברנש דמתתקן ביומא שתיתאה, מכי ערב שמשא, לאעלא בשבתא. אוף הכי נמי, וסימניך בשנת שש מאות שנה לחיי נח וגו', נבקעו כל מעיינות תהום רבה
It is prophesied in the Zohar HaKadosh that in the year 5,500, a gradual bursting of wisdom will be come forth and its peak will be mid 1900's (solar calendar).

Germany's Edom
גרממיא של אדום שאלמלי הן יוצאין מחריבין כל העולם כולו
ChaZaL prophesied over 2,000 year ago that Germany will capture most of the world but will fail.

Prophecy of Returning to Israel
ואתם הרי ישראל ענפיכם תתנו, ופריכם תשאו לעמי ישראל, כי קרבו לבוא... ונושבו הערים והחרבות תבנינה
When the Jews will return to Israel, Eretz Israel will be fruitful. The Holy Land recognizes her true owners, whom she waited for 2,000 years.

Prophecy of Teshuva
והשיב לב אבות על בנים ולב בנים על אבותיו
It was prophesied that after the Jews will return to the Holy Land there will be a wide movement of Teshuva that will stem from the children..." .

Am Israel will do Teshuva
אִם-יִהְיֶה נִדַּחֲךָ, בִּקְצֵה הַשָּׁמָיִם מִשָּׁם יְקַבֶּצְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ, וּמִשָּׁם, יִקָּחֶךָ
With the ingathering of Am Israel (Kibutz Galuyot), Bnei Israel will begin the process of returning to the Torah and its commandments.

The world will exist 6,000 years
תנא דבי אליהו: ששת אלפים שנה הוי עלמא [יהיה קיים העולם], שני אלפים תוהו, שני אלפים תורה, שני אלפים ימות המשיח - סנהדרין צז
A. 2,000 years of desolation (From creation till Avraham Avinu, zs'l, recognized HaShem)
B. 2,000 years of Torah (from Avraham Avinu till after the destruction of the 2nd Temple)
C. 2,000 years of (yearning for) Moshiach's arrival (from destruction of the 2nd Temple till now...)

Birthpangs of Moshiach’s arrival
עקבתא דמשיחא
The Talmud describes the period immediately prior to the advent of Mashiach as one of great travail and turmoil. There will be a world recession and governments will be controlled by despots. It is in this troubled setting that Moshiach will arrive.
The Academy of Elijah taught, whoever studies the laws (of the Torah) every day, (he) is guaranteed to have a share in the World to Come.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)

The prophets of Tanach predicted about Israel and various other nations with remarkable accuracy. They were under the inspiration of Ruah HaKodesh.

TYRE

 

In the 26th chapter of Ezekiel (592-570 B.C.E.) seven things are predicted to happen to the city of Tyre:

 

1) Nebuchadnezzar will destroy the mainland of Tyre (Ezekiel 26:8).

2) Many nations against Tyre (Ezekiel 26:3).

3) Make her a bare rock; flat like the top of a rock (Ezekiel 26:4).

4) Fishermen will spread their nets over the site (Ezekiel 26:5).

5) Throw the debris into the water (Ezekiel 26:12).

6) Never be rebuilt (Ezekiel 26:14).

7) Never be found again (Ezekiel 26:21) (2/285)

 

Nebuchadnezzar laid siege to mainland Tyre three years after the prophecy and after a 13 year siege (585-573 B.C.E.) Tyre made terms and acknowledged Babylonian authority over them (4 xxii.452) When Nebuchadnezzar broke the gates down, he found the city almost empty. The majority of the people had moved by ship to an island about 1/2 miles off the coast and fortified a city there. The mainland city was destroyed in 573 B.C.E., as predicted. The city of Tyre on the island remained a powerful city for several hundred years. (2/286)

 

Alexander the Great, in his war on Persia, marching southward called on each city to open their gates to him, as part of his plan to deny the use to the Persian fleet. Tyre refused to do so, and Alexander laid siege to the city. Possessing no fleet, he demolished old Tyre, on the mainland, and with the debris built a causeway 200 feet wide across the straits separating the old and new towns, erecting towers and war engines at the farther end. (4/xxii. 452) Tyre continually raided the causeway with fire-ships greatly retarding progress, until Alexander pressured conquered subjects to make ships for his operation. After attaining a superior naval force, Alexander finished the causeway, battered the walls of Tyre down killed eight thousand of the inhabitants and sold thirty thousand into slavery. (5/153)

 

A history book by a secular historian reads, "Alexander the Great ... reduced Tyre to ruins... The larger part of the site of the once great city is now bare as the top of a rock --- a place where fishermen now spread their nets to dry." (5/55)

 

Another historian, John C. Beck, says, "The history of Tyre does not stop with after the conquest of Alexander. Men continue to rebuild her and armies continue to besiege her walls, until finally after sixteen hundred years, she falls never to be rebuilt again." (6/41)

 

All the prophecies of Ezekiel about Tyre have come true: Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the mainland city of Tyre; Many nations were against Tyre; Alexander made her a bare rock and threw debris into the water to make the causeway; fishermen now spread nets over the site; (there is a city of Tyre today, but it is located down the coast from the original Tyre) the old city of Tyre has never been rebuilt, even though a great freshwater spring are located at the site, providing 10,000,000 gallons daily. It is still an excellent site today but has never been rebuilt, although many have tried. All seven of the predictions came true in the minutest detail.

 

Some others examples of fulfilled Bible prophecy about history:

 

Sidon (Ezekiel 28:22-23);

Samaria (Hosea 13:16 & Micah 1:6);

Gaza-Ashkelon (Amos 1:8; Jeremiah 47:5; Zephaniah 2:4);

Moab-Ammon (Ezekiel 25:3-4; Jeremiah 48:47 & 49:6);

Petra-Edom (Isaiah 34:6-15; Jeremaih 49:17-18; Ezekiel 25:13-14 & 35:57);

Thebes-Memphis (Ezekiel 30:13-15);

Nineveh (Nahum 1:8-10; 2:6; 3:10; 3:13; 3:19);

Babylon (Daniel 2,7; Isaiah 13:19-22; 14:23;

Jeremiah 51:26 & 43);

Jerusalem Enlargement (Jeremiah 31:38-40); and finally

Promised Land (Leviticus 26:31-33 & Ezekiel 36:33-35), where the events are happening before our eyes!
