End of the Age of the Gentiles

[PeterH]

Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.--Lk 21, 25

This statement indicates the Gentiles times will come to an end.

No, that is not what it indicates. It refers to the oppression that the Gentiles will heap on Israel and the fulffillment of it. It refers to the end of the Gentile possession and rulership of Jerusalem. That happened on June 7, 1967 when Jerusalem was finally in Jewish hands for the first time in almost 2,000 years.

But is Israel now called Jezreel.

Hosea 1:11

"Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel"

Doesn't Jezreel mean "God's plants" ? I don't get why you would think Israel would be called Jezreel based on that verse or even section of Hosea. If anything its the day that is called Jezreel. When God returns his people to his land.

Could Hosea have been speaking about his son?

Jezreel was so named because God had declared that he would avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu (Hosea 1:4,5).

Hos 1:4 And the LORD said to him, "Call his name Jezreel, for in just a little while I will punish the house of Jehu for the blood of Jezreel, and I will put an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.

Hos 1:5 And on that day I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel." (Has this happened?)

Shiloh, what do you make of this scripture, given the date you post as June 7, 1967? The scripture seems to oppose your comment that it fulfills the prophecy?

It refers to the end of the Gentile possession and rulership of Jerusalem. That happened on June 7, 1967 when Jerusalem was finally in Jewish hands for the first time in almost 2,000 years.

[Joshua-777]

I'm wondering.
