Hi John,
I am the husband of happymrs87. I seen your message that you got to see David Dolan speak. I bet that was awesome. A lot has been spoken on the Psalm 83 war lately. I agree with David that a regional war is a given. You mentioned the nations of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Iraq. I believe that all these nations will be involved, however I also believe the Palestinians will be involved also and possibly Egypt. I have read a similar study on this regional war that also involves Isaiah 11:12-16 and Isaiah 19. This study of a regional war was by Joel Chernoff of the Messianic Jewish Alliance of America (MJAA.org). Because of the wording of these passages which are similar to Psalms 83, I think there will be limited nuclear warfare which will lead to the destruction of Damascus. If Egypt is not involved in this war, then they will almost certainly be involved in the Ezekiel 38 and 39 war that will involve more powerful Islamic countries and Russia. I think this Arab regional war in which Israel thoroughly defeats the Arabs will lead to the Ezekiel 38 and 39 war. Islam will be crushed in these two wars. Anyway, I enjoyed your post.
Shalom in Christ,
Rodney Jackson
