THE ORIGIN STORY OF JESUS
Part 80: The Return to Israel |
|
The seventy-year timeout imposed on the Jews came to
an end and they were free to return to the Promised Land because the
Godhead needed the temple rebuilt in Jerusalem for the Messiah’s
redemption of humanity. Ironically, the homecoming from Babylon was
instigated by a pagan king and opened the way for a remnant to
return to Judah. Even with the royal blessing, dirty politics from
the local population slandered the Jews to the point that King
Artaxerxes I halted the construction of the temple. As a result,
Jesus activated Haggai and Zechariah, their words fired up
Zerubbabel and his people to the point that they were willing to
defy the king’s cease-and-desist order, even if it meant their
deaths. What’s the takeaway? When the Godhead commences a project,
work on it and expect miracles because with God all things are
possible. |
