well Leah had poor eyesight, so we could connect her to those blind under the Law.
And yes, i see the typology you are seeing.
It's evolving. I am pondering things you're adding and may be enlightened and learn something else.

But Ezekiel 37 logically took place when the two Houses, of Judah which was in Babylonian Captivity, and Israel which had been extirpated by the Assyrians and sent away to the Tigris, were regathered back to the land as a re-united nation. Healing the rift that Solomon's Apostasy had caused.
This never happened for both houses yet. The northern house never returned from captivity but were sown into the nations as punishment. But a remnant from the southern house returned.

Ezekiel 37 describes a resurrection of the dead, the gathering of scattered for nations, a rejoining of both houses, and a leadership under king David forever.

Sorry for the stupid questions, but this is not something I understand. So, I'll just ask.
Was busy painting my bathroom and installing vinyl plank flooring yesterday, but I always try to get to questions sooner or later.

No questions are dumb my friend, our mission is to come to the understanding of THE TRUTH, via the Holy Spirit.

You never seem to mention China. China is becoming very prominent. Aren't they part of this too?
II think of course they will be a part of THIS BELOW:

Rev. 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world (THIS is Babylon the Great or The CONFUSED MASSES), to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

The above of course would incorporate China and all the kinds of the whole world. What I don't think is that the "KINGS OF THE EAST" is referring to China. People misconstrue and CONFLATE these two passages.

Rev. 9:16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.

Firstly, many people just ASSUME that these are the Kings of the East (they are not) and thus they assume ONLY China could fit. But this is not a Human Army, this is a 200 Million Angelic Army bringing DEATH to 1/3 of those people who took the Mark of the Beast (MotB) willingly or knowingly, and thus they are Angels bringing JUSTICE. We can see that in verse 20 below:

20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:

Plagues come from God, NOT MEN !! This is an Angelic Army of 200 million, not a Human Army. Thus the Kings of the East get MISCONSTRUED when in reality, this is the 2nd Woe, and the Kings of the East are mentioned in Rev. 16 via the 7 Vials wh9ch are the 3rd Woe. So, 1.) it's not even the same ACTIONS by God, and secondly, its Angels bringing PLAGUES on men who took the MotB.

Rev. 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

So, who are the Kings of the East, and why are they mentioned? THINK NOW, the Kings of the WHOLE WORLD are mentioned just one verse later, so why mention the Kings of the East at all? Because God is showing us OUR ENMITY against him down through the Ages by calling out all of the Beasts in History. Firstly, the Anti-Christ is the Last Beast heading this war on God, he arose out of TWO of the Beasts from Daniel and THREE if we count his Assyrian bloodline, he's an Assyrian, he's born in Greece and comes to power out of the Headd of the Fourth Beast (Europe), thus he represents THOSE BEASTS here, and the Kings of the East represent who? Well, what River is "DRIED UP" that really will not be DRIED UP? The Euphrates River where both the Persian Empire and the Babylonian Empire derived from via that area. We all know modern armies can ford any river nowadays, so no RIVER actually needs to be "DRIED UP" in order for modern armies to cross them, we all know that thus this is simply SYMBOLOGY in order for God to EXPOSE why His Wrath is Just, the Anti-Christ represent Two Heads of the Beast, or three, or I guess even FOUR because the Anti-Christ himself is one of the 7 Heads of the Beast. Then we are told about the Kings of the East when there was no need to single out Iran and Iraq because we get the verse that says the kings of the WHOLE EARTH go to battle God one verse later, so the Kings of the East are again SYMBOLOGY, God is telling us why His Wrath is Just, all of these Kingdoms tried to DESTROY God one true Kingdom, Israel, and Jesus will now take his seat on THAT THRONE in Jerusalem for 1000 years. Amen.

You say the words king or kings. Do you mean government or spiritual leaders?
Kings are the Leaders of our modern-day Governments, Presidents, Chancellors, Kings still in some instances, dictators, etc.

You say armies. Do you mean military armies or population armies?
The Whole World has been pelted by God's Wrath for 7 years, they have all taken the Mark of the Beast, the 2000 Million Angelic Army has slain 1/3 of them (1.5-2 billion) so they HATE God with a vengeance, there will be very few Christians (Remnant Church of Revelation 12:17) left by this time if they are not hiding very well, the Church was Raprured PRE TRIB, and the 3-5 Million Jews who REPENTED are being protected by God in the Petra/Bozrah area for 1260 days.

So, those "ARMIES" are the Whole World, the same ones who cheered the deaths of the Two-witnesses who brought them misery by "PRAYING DOWN" all of these Plagues onto mankind. They all go forth to fight against God, real Armies, and humans who hate God.

You say one hour is 42 months (a little over 3.5 years on earth.) If you have the numbers clear, there are 10 minutes of silence in Heaven that I was wondering if that meant that our prayers were not reaching God during those 10 minutes. How long is 10 minutes in heaven and about when did that occur or is it occurring now or still yet to occur?
I think it's a half-hour (30 minutes) of silence. The Church will not be here. The Remnant Church will be here. The SILENCE in Heaven means God's Wrath has ARRIVED, in the first 6 Seals Jesus PROPHESIES what is about to come upon Mankind, the 6 Seals are NOT ACTIONABLE, they DO NOTHING, Jesus is just Prophesying what is about to befall mankind over the coming 42 months when he breaks each seal. The First 5 Seals are all about the coming Anti-Christ, he 1.) Conquers for 42 months 2.) Brings War for 42-months. 3.) His Wars bring 42- months of Famine 4.) His rule brings 42-months of Sickness/Death and the Grave (Hades). So, the Four Horses are all the coming Anti-Christ. Seal #5 is Jesus Prophesying that over the next 42-months the Anti-Christ TYRANT will Martyr much of the Remnant Church on earth that came unto Christ Jesus AFTER the Rapture.

Seal #6 is DIFFERENT, but the same. Its about God's Wrath, not the Anti-Crosy BUT it happens over the exact same 42-month period of time. (That is because the Anti-Christ gets his marching orders from Satan, a brilliant strategist, who tells him to WAIT for God's Wrath, thus God's Wrath {Rev. 8 Asteroid} will wipe out 1/3 of the world for him) Jesus opens the 6th Seal and Prophesies that God' Wrath is about to fall, and thus he tells about the EXACT SAME Prophesy Joel 2:31 tells us about, the Sun and Moon will go dark on the coming Day of the Lord God's Wrath. IT IS A PROPHESY, not an ACTION. All 7 Seals have to be off before the Scroll of Judgments can be opened, just like a closet with 7 locks on to can't be opened when 6 locks are taken off, ALL SEVEN have to be off before you can look inside the closet, AND before the 7 Seal Scroll can be read from. SEE BELOW:

Seven Sealed Scroll.
seven-seals.jpg

NOTHING can be read until all seven seals are taken off, Jesus is just Prophesying when he takes each seal off until he gets to the 7th Seal. Then there is SILENCE in Heaven because there is no need to Prophesy anymore, JUDGMENT HAS ARRIVED !! Notice, the 7th Seal is over in Rev. 8 where the Asteroid (Mountain cast into the Sea) hits earth !! BOOM. There is a reason fr that, the 7th Seal BRINGS God's Wrath, the other 6 Seals have to be opened to open the Seven Sealed Scroll of Judgments. In other words. when I take the 7th lock of the closet door off, there is no need for me to explain what you are about to see anymore, I can just open the door and SHOW YOU NOW !! Thus the SILENCE in Heaven, Judgment has now come, the Angels are READYING the 7 Trumpet of Judgments !!

Do you trust what you see on youtube or tv or read in books? I'm just curious. Because I'm very "timid" about listening to Ph.D.s and theologians because no matter how smart they are or how well studied, no matter who they are, or even who we are, there is wrong judgment all over the place. It's always a matter of if we can recognize the truth.
I have a TRUTH METER (so do you) and it is the Holy Spirit. I can listen to anything, and the unction of the Holy Spirit usually tells me within 5 minutes if this is of God or not. Of course, it takes practice over many years to perfect and understand how to hear the voice of God and to UNDERSTAND the voice of Satan.

When I hear stuff, not of God I turn to off Sometimes people get be f God but be off on a few things like the Raptures timing, so I can multi-task and still listen, but I am then weary of what they say or in other words, I pam much closer attention to all the details.

ok, yay!
i think we're understanding each other now & on the same page! :)

going to just kind of lay it all out here, to be sure -- i've been saying:
  • Mmse. Orphaned is not a JW - they say Michael isn't the same person as the Son of God, but an ordinary angel, who died on the cross. she says Michael is another name for the Son of God because the Son is the chief messenger
  • in many places in the OT someone extraordinary appears called THE Angel/Messenger of the LORD -- not "an" angel, but The Messenger.
    • This is the pre-incarnate Son of God
    • He is treated like God, He is called God, He speaks as God
    • not saying this about all places where angels are mentioned, but in many places the scripture gives us clues that we're not talking about an ordinary angel -- it's someone divine, and it's usually a great mystery when He appears
  • i'm not saying that Jesus is an angel ((created being)). i'm saying that the Son of God has appeared to men in the past like an angel/messenger
    • there are a lot of examples of that in the OT - i've brought up a couple
    • i agree that maybe in these cases it is better to translate the word as "Messenger"
sound good?

in the course of discussing Mmse. Orphaned's views about Michael the subject of whether Christ has ever appeared as an angel came up. i'm not trying to say Michael = Christ, i'm just pointing out that The Angel/Messenger of the LORD in the OT is treated as God by scripture, and it must be the Son because the Father has never been seen at any time. ;)
My other post says all I can on this tbh.

If one hour is 42 .months in his calculation, then 10 minutes would be 42÷6= 7 months

If you believe that story, I have swampland in Florida im selling for a Million dollars an acre
Rev. 17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

How long does THE BEAST RULE? 42-months right? 1260 days right? 3.5 years right?

How long do the 10 Kings rule with the Beast? ONE HOUR, which = 42 Months. Thus the ONE HOUR in Babylon (WHOLE WORLD) gets Judged is a period f 42 months of God's Wrath. You miss all the Symbology, then when I prove I am correct and you are in error, PRIDE kicks in and you deny what you know is true anyway.

If I tell you a Rooster dips snuff, look under his wings and you'll find the can partner.

I see the 10 horns representing the 10 kings of the lost tribes of Israel, they will be recognized in the future as tribal rulers quickly by the Beast, they being orthodox Jews who hate Liberal Jerusalem, will give their authority and consent to burn Jerusalem the whore with fire

You know there are such things as cults and cult followers.
I do study it, in the Scriptures, from the Author of the Scriptures, not from some dude pleading for me to 'hit the bell', 'smash the like' and 'subscribe' on a platform that is devoicing conservatives and Christians. Yes, I'd rather drink from pure water source than muddy waters no matter how many hours it takes.
"It blew a hole in my understanding"? You don't even know what my understanding is, so how could you say 'you thought the same thing for 25 years'? This is tortuously funny, I must stop.
Well, you limit yourself, the Holy Spirit is the TRUTH DETECTOR. I can understand in 5 minutes if something is of God or not. Via you way, no one can ever hear anyone preach, lecture, etc., etc. that makes no sense, the Holy Spirit is our guide, I am not afraid to hear anyone, I am going to know if they are of God or not in mere minutes. The FACTS are that what Jesus told the people at Pergamum has been MISCONSTRUED, the Anti-Christ is not born in Turkey per se because of that scripture, he is on in Greece as a Turk who comes to power in the E.U. because of other scriptures. But Jesus was merely mentioning the Temple to Jupiter to the Pergamum church. So, people run with a FALSEHOOD that it means that is where the Anti-Christ seat will be. There is power in knowledge.

I know a lot of things when people bring forth scriptures because many other people say the same things. The Anti-Christ is an Assyrian, born in Greece who becomes the E.U. President. He is not a Muslim nor is he from Turkey.

read Ezra...e.g Ezra 8

35 Also the children of those that had been carried away, which were come out of the captivity, offered burnt offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering unto the Lord.

I wondered if this were a "blueprint" for New Jerusalem. But, I am confused by the designs for performance of commanded animal sacrifices.
Recall that during old testament the Almighty took the Levites as His inheritance, so they didn't receive any wealth or food from land or animal. They didnt have to work because they were servants of Him, so they were given everything.

Everything they were given was either a tithe or offering to the Almighty by the other tribes...and it was the Levites who ate those offerings (along with the poor). But how do you think they prepared the food? There needed and still needs to be a place to slaughter the animals.

The relationship between the Almighty and the Levites was an example of the future relationship between the Almighty and His people (royal priesthood). Im assuming His people will not need to work...and they will live in His city. The nations will deliver tithes and offerings to the Almighty in the form of wealth and food, and His people will eat it on His behalf...and again there needs to be a place to prepare the meat.

When scripture says the smoke that ascends to heaven from a sacrifice is a sweet savor, that's not metaphorical or just spiritual. It's the same pleasant aroma that we smell when having a barbecue.

There is only one sacrifice for sin, never to be repeated. But there are other offerings of thanksgiving one can make of their own free will.

An offering of food to the Almighty was basically a barbecue for His priests. And each of the major feast days were massive barbeque parties.

When the Messiah comes the nations of the world will be commanded to celebrate the feast of tabernacles during the millennium.

I'm not afraid to hear others, I just don't like wasting my time on YT preachers. Do I at least have that freedom?
I have given you 5 minutes and have concluded that you still don't know my position. You guessed at it, and was wrong, so there is something blocking you from clearly hearing the Holy Spirit (TRUTH DETECTOR).
So please, don't try to pawn off your false spirituality on me.

The 10 Horns represent Europe brother. It means COMPLETE Europe who become Divided then Reunite, see the 10 Toes in Dan. 2 and the 10 Horns in Dan. 7, they tell you the Little Horn arises AMONGST the 10 Horns.

You stay to yourself and be one of those LONE WOLF guys. We know how that turns out, and we know that is not the Christ way. And I know what verse means, and how people are deceived. I see people coming with OLD FALSEHOODS from miles away, what I do know is you are not understanding Scriptures, PERIOD, you can parse that in a million ways, maybe if I get one IOTA of the Pledge of Allegiance wrong I "DONT KNOW IT" right?

But, what I do know is you do not understand End Time Eschatology.

As soon as I finish work I'll come back and we'll dive into all of the text more in depth. But Ezra 1 says...

3 Who is there among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the Lord God of Israel, (he is the God,) which is in Jerusalem.

4 And whosoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.

5 Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all them whose spirit God had raised, to go up to build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem


Then Ezra 2 says...

Now these are the children of the province that went up out of the captivity, of those which had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away unto Babylon, and came again unto Jerusalem and Judah, every one unto his city;

...and then it lists the children. It's the southern house. The northern house had a punishment that was further extended because of sin (7 times more severe than their initial punishment). Hosea 8 explains that they'd be sown into the nations and no longer be His people.

But I'll give you a more detailed reply later. Blessings.

The 10 horns shall rise out of the fourth kingdom, all from the same kingdom, (Israel)

Your claim these 10 kings represent Europe doesn't fit the scripture, being different nations and kingdoms

(Out Of This Kingdom) same exact Kingdom (Singular) Israel

As the entire earth is currently devoured in focus on that little place called Israel, the size of a football field on the worlds map

Daniel 7:23-25KJV
23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Yes, you are right there; also it was the Samarians who initially hindered the rebuilding of the temple.

But according to Jeremiah (50)...

17 Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.18 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon mount Ephraim and Gilead.20 In those days, and in that time, saith the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.

And Gabriel seems to conjoin the the Houses in the return

Daniel 9 :7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law,


As soon as I finish work I'll come back and we'll dive into all of the text more in depth. But Ezra 1 says...

3 Who is there among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the Lord God of Israel, (he is the God,) which is in Jerusalem.

4 And whosoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.

5 Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all them whose spirit God had raised, to go up to build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem

That is a perfectly sensible, common sense understanding and I wonder why I didn't think of it. I feel better now. So, I guess this means though that we will still be eating flesh. I mean, still be eating and we are supposed to eat our food with joy and gladness before God.

@OrphanedRepublican are you mystic or new age.
I know you said you have no church of the normal in your living.
Who is your guide or advisor?
I don't understand what you mean by mystic. But that's a fair question.

Psalm 119:24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.

I literally read the KJV bible for my life. Anything I learn is taught of me from the Spirit. I cling to it for my survival and I'm very afraid to look outside the bible for knowledge. But, if I do, I always put whatever I hear someone say against the scriptures to see if it it's true. That's what we all do, I believe. (Acts 17:11)
