Bearing in mind that certain narratives are created with the sole purpose of distorting biblical prophecy and leading people to believe that the Word of ELOHIM is devoid of power, it then becomes critical to always question any narrative that does not align with biblical prophecy.

Born in the 7th century B.C. (650-570), the prophet Jeremiah lived through the disintegration of the kingdom and witnessed the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple. He spent the last forty years of his life in the kingdom south of Egypt. The book that bears his name and contains a wealth of information on the period of the Old Testament is a long exhortation to "The House of Israel" and "The House of Judah".

​

If you carefully read the Testament in its entirety, you will realize that the nations of "The House of Israel" and "The House of Judah" are under the yoke of a divine curse that makes their living conditions globally charged with hardship, challenges and psychological distress, for they were handed over to dominant and powerful nations on account of their unfaithfulness and idolatrous practices, which the Lord abhors.

• Jeremiah 44:8-26 Why are you provoking Me to anger by the work of your hands by burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to reside? As a result, you will be cut off and will become an object of cursing and reproach among all the nations of the earth.? ... Nevertheless, hear the word of the LORD, all you people of Judah living in Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by My great name, says the LORD, that never again will any man of Judah living in the land of Egypt invoke My name or say, ‘As surely as the Lord GOD lives.’"

The Scriptures are very clear on the fact that the nations of Israel and Judah are sister nations, and they will be clearly identified through the similarity of the curses to which they have been subjected.

• Jeremiah 50:33 "Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah were oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go."

​​​​​ 

Here's a list of verses that mention the curses weighing on Judah and Israel.

​​

► They will feel frustration and envy towards nations that God has not chosen.

• Deuteronomy 32:21 "They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God; They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols. But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation; I will move them to anger by a foolish nation."

• Romans 10:19  "But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says: “I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation."

• Romans 11:11 "I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles."

• Jeremiah 14:2-3 “Judah mourns and her gates languish. Her people wail for the land, and a cry goes up from Jerusalem. The nobles send their servants for water; they go to the cisterns, but find no water; their jars return empty. They are ashamed and humiliated; they cover their heads."

​

​

​

► They will become the laughingstock of all nations and the subject of mockery.

• Jeremiah 24:8-9 "But like the bad figs, so bad they cannot be eaten,’ says the LORD, ‘so will I deal with Zedekiah king of Judah, his officials, and the remnant of Jerusalem—those remaining in this land and those living in the land of Egypt.

• Jeremiah 29:17-18 "this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “I will send against them sword and famine and plague, and I will make them like rotten figs, so bad they cannot be eaten. I will pursue them with sword and famine and plague. I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth—a curse, a desolation, and an object of scorn and reproach among all the nations to which I banish them."

• Jeremiah 44:12 "I will take the remnant of Judah who have set their faces to come to the land of Egypt to live, and they shall all be consumed. In the land of Egypt they shall fall; by the sword and by famine they shall be consumed. From the least to the greatest, they shall die by the sword and by famine, and they shall become an oath, a horror, a curse, and a taunt."

​​

​

► Cannibalism will become a common practice in various cities of Judah.

• Jeremiah 19:8-9 "I will make this city a desolation and an object of scorn. All who pass by will be appalled and will scoff at all her wounds. I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh in the siege and distress inflicted on them by their enemies who seek their lives."

​

​

► Their leaders will govern in a state of cabegie, caring mostly for their personal well-being, they will be like little kids, unable to protect and care for their populations.​

• Isaiah 3:4 "I will make mere lads their leaders, and children will rule over them."

• Isaiah 1:23 "Your rulers are rebels, friends of thieves. They all love bribes and chasing after rewards. They do not defend the fatherless, and the plea of the widow never comes before them."

• Ezekiel 34:8 "As surely as I live, declares the Lord GOD, because My flock lacks a shepherd and has become prey and food for every wild beast, and because My shepherds did not search for My flock but fed themselves instead"

• Hosea 3:4 "For the Israelites must live many days without king or prince"

​

► They will be subjected to servitude and slavery.

• Lamentations 1:3 "Judah has gone into exile under affliction and harsh slavery; she dwells among the nations but finds no place to rest. All her pursuers have overtaken her in the midst of her distress."

• Isaiah 20:4 "so the king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, young and old alike, naked and barefoot, with bared buttocks—to Egypt’s shame."

• Jeremiah 16:13 "So I will cast you out of this land into a land that neither you nor your fathers have known. There you will serve other gods day and night, for I will show you no favor."

• Jeremiah 13:19-20 "The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Judah shall be carried away captive all of it, it shall be wholly carried away captive? Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given thee, thy beautiful flock?"

​

​​

​► They will be subjected to violence and oppression wherever they go.

• Jeremiah 20:7-8 "You have deceived me, O LORD, and I was deceived. You have overcome me and prevailed. I am a laughingstock all day long; everyone mocks me.! For whenever I speak, I cry out; I proclaim violence and destruction. For the word of the LORD has become to me a reproach and derision all day long."

• Jeremiah 30:12-14 "For this is what the LORD says: “Your injury is incurable; your wound is grievous. There is no one to plead your cause, no remedy for your sores, no recovery for you. All your lovers have forgotten you; they no longer seek you, for I have struck you as an enemy would, with the discipline of someone cruel, because of your great iniquity and your numerous sins."​

​

​

► All the other nations of the earth will reject them with the same zeal, and will neither conceive nor tolerate them as being the true Jews and Israelites.

• Psalm 83:5-8 "For with one mind they plot together, they form an alliance against You, the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, of Moab and the Hagrites, of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, of Philistia with the people of Tyre, Even Assyria has joined them, lending strength to the sons of Lot."

• Isaiah 1:3 "The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master’s manger, but Israel does not know; My people do not understand.” 

• Isaiah 44:18 "They do not comprehend or discern, for He has shut their eyes so they cannot see and closed their minds so they cannot understand."

• Revelations 2:9 "I know your affliction and your poverty—though you are rich! And I am aware of the slander of those who falsely claim to be Jews"

​

► They will be handed over to violent, and ruthless nations they've never seen before: namely, the Peoples of the Septentrion (The Great North). 

• Deuteronomy 28:49-50 "The LORD will bring a nation from afar, from the ends of the earth, to swoop down upon you like an eagle— a nation whose language you will not understand, a ruthless nation with no respect for the old and no pity for the young."

• Jeremiah 5:15-16 "Behold, I am bringing a distant nation against you, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD. “It is an established nation, an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know and whose speech you do not understand. Their quivers are like open graves; they are all mighty men."

• Jeremiah 6:22-23 "This is what the LORD says: “Behold, an army is coming from the land of the north; a great nation is stirred up from the ends of the earth. They grasp the bow and spear; they are cruel and merciless. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride upon horses, lined up like men in formation against you, O Daughter of Zion.”

• Jeremiah 10:22 "Listen! The sound of a report is coming—a great commotion from the land to the north. The cities of Judah will be made a desolation, a haunt for jackals."

• 2 Kings 24:2 "And the LORD sent Chaldean, Aramean, Moabite, and Ammonite raiders against Jehoiakim in order to destroy Judah, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servants the prophets."​​​

​

► They will be scattered all over the earth in boats.

• Ezekiel 30:23 "And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries."

• Deuteronomy 28:68 "And the LORD will take you back to Egypt in ships, by the way of which I said to you, ‘You shall never see it again.’ And there you shall be offered for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will buy you."

​​​​​​​​

​

► Their lands will be devastated, and their wealth plundered.​

• Daniel 11:40-43 "At the time of the end, the king of the South will engage him in battle, but the king of the North will storm out against him with chariots, horsemen, and many ships, invading many countries and sweeping through them like a flood ... He will extend his power over many countries, and not even the land of Egypt will escape. He will gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and over all the riches of Egypt, and the Libyans and Cushites will also submit to him."

• Jeremiah 15:13-14 "Your wealth and your treasures I will give up as plunder, without charge for all your sins within all your borders. Then I will enslave you to your enemies in a land you do not know, for My anger will kindle a fire that will burn against you."

• Isaiah 1:7 "Your land is desolate; your cities are burned with fire. Foreigners devour your fields before you—a desolation demolished by strangers"

In Joel 3:1-6, the Lord says that the nations of Judah and Israel were scattered and sold to the sons of Javan, who carried them away from their homeland.  

• Joel 3:1-6 "Yes, in those days and at that time, when I restore Judah and Jerusalem from captivity, I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning My people, My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations as they divided up My land. They cast lots for My people; they bartered a boy for a prostitute and sold a girl for wine to drink. Now what do you have against Me, O Tyre, Sidon, and all the regions of Philistia? Are you rendering against Me a recompense? If you retaliate against Me, I will swiftly and speedily return your recompense upon your heads. For you took My silver and gold and carried off My finest treasures to your temples. You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks,d to send them far from their homeland.

​

According to some theologians and scholars, this passage refers to the division of the land of Canaan in Israel between the 12 Israelite tribes. However, if the ‘sons of Javan’ represent the Greeks as well as many European nations such as the Romans, the British, the Germanic peoples, the Spanish, the Germans... then it is clear that this division does not refer to the Land of Canaan, since there is no historical account of any such a division in Israel among these European nations. Now, if we go back in history, this passage seems more like a prophecy echoing the Berlin Conference concerning the division of Africa! 

Berlin Conference?

During this conference, fourteen northern countries divided Africa among themselves. The countries represented at the time were Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden-Norway, Turkey and the United States of America. The end result was a hodgepodge of geometric borders that divided Africa into 50 irregular countries. This new map of the continent was imposed on the 1000 indigenous cultures and regions. The new countries were devoid of sense and logic, as they divided homogeneous groups of people and merged disparate groups who didn't get along at all.

Now ask yourself the following question: Do the above curses precisely align with the prevailing conditions in modern Israel? 🤔

The Bible also emphasizes the fact that the nations of the House of Israel and the House of Judah are deeply idolatrous.

📌 They build altars and shrines to worship unclean spirits.

📌 They sacrifice their offspring by fire to demons.

📌 They practice divination, witchcraft and enchantment, and consult mediums and spiritists.

📌They erect carved images and prostrate themselves before the idol they have made with their own hands.

📌 They are identifiable by the fact that within their nations, there are those who put sticks in their nose and do other similar things..

• Ezekiel 8:17 "Son of man,” He said to me, “do you see this? Is it not enough for the house of Judah to commit the abominations they are practicing here, that they must also fill the land with violence and continually provoke Me to anger? Look, they are even putting the branch to their nose!"
