Les Feldick Bible Study

Is God done with Israel, and why not?

No. God is not done with Israel, because He promised that His mercy would never depart from the nation of Israel. Although Israel was disciplined, dispersed among the nations, and later regathered into a sovereign state in 1948, the world's claim that God is through with the Jew is contrary to that promise.

Les teaches that God used the Roman army under Titus to discipline Israel; the city was besieged, the temple was taken down rock by rock, and Israel was dispersed into every nation. Later they began coming back, setting up kibbutzes, and in 1948, after a war with surrounding Arabs, Harry Truman was the first world leader to declare Israel a sovereign state. Yet the world says God has nothing to do with it and is all through with the Jew. Les says no, because God promised His mercy would never depart from the nation of Israel. He then directs attention to Jeremiah 31.
