What does the Antichrist do when he sees the Jews fleeing?
When the Antichrist sees the Jews fleeing, he pursues them as Pharaoh pursued Israel, casting out a flood of water after the woman to carry her away or destroy her. Satan indwelling him controls him, and this flood represents his attempt to destroy the escaping Israelites.
Les teaches that at the midpoint of the tribulation the Antichrist comes from his headquarters, likely Europe, to Jerusalem. At the same moment Satan is cast out of heaven and indwells the Antichrist, controlling him, as Satan did Judas. When Satan in the man Antichrist sees the escaping group of Jews—perhaps several thousand—he acts like Pharaoh, who sent an army after the escaping Jews from Egypt. Revelation says the serpent casts water as a flood after the woman, the escaping Israelites, to carry her away or destroy her. Yet these Jews are under God’s sovereign, mandated protection; He feeds and protects them through the final three and a half years.
