This book gives a spiritual and historical overview of the Jewish nation. Abraham, the first patriarch of Israel, was selected for his integrity and faith, and his descendants became known as the Chosen People. Hebrew Prophets foretold a Messiah, whose identity is revealed by ancient writings. Much of this foretells the coming of someone, who would rescue Israel from oppressors. He would be from the royal line of King David, and would institute an everlasting, idyllic realm, perfect in peace and prosperity. Even though Israelis have suffered a great deal from their enemies through hundreds of years, amazingly they have survived all the terrible onslaughts. They are God's Chosen People. He rescued them from slavery under a cruel Pharaoh in Egypt, and more recently from the deadly intentions of Adolf Hitler. The book of Esther records how the Jewish nation escaped annihilation in 475 BC in the days of Xerxes, King of the Medes and Persians. Through all the ups and downs there was always a viable Remnant. Today they are flooding back to their homeland, established in 1948 after World War II. So what happened to their promised Messiah? The answer lies in Israel's ancient scrolls, which speak of a future time when Israel will live in everlasting peace and security. This book unpacks those significant prophecies to provide clear answers for today.
