Jeremiah 30:3 For the time is coming when I will restore the fortunes of my people of Israel and Judah. I will bring them home to this land that I gave to their ancestors, and they will possess it and live here again. I, the Lord, have spoken!"This Week with Rabbi EcksteinMay 4, 2006
Dear Friends,
Here's an item of interest to anyone who loves Israel: There are now more Jews living in Israel than in any other country. Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics reported a few days ago - shortly before the 58th birthday of the Jewish state - that Israel's population increased 118,000 since last year, and that her Jewish population now stands at 76 percent of the total 7.3 million inhabitants.
There are a couple of reasons for this rise. The first is an increasing birthrate, attributable mainly to Arabs and the Jewish ultra-Orthodox. The second is aliyah (Jewish emigration to Israel), which is a key element for ensuring Israel's Jewish majority as well as her peace and security.

The Lord has been continuously bringing his prophecy to life for over half a century (gee, has it been that long?). This prophecy that the Lord will bring the Jews back into the land of course was given over 500 years before the Jews were dispersed from their land and thousands of years before the Lord brought them back. Who knows the future like this? Only God. The scene is being set for that Seventieth Week of Daniel. Maranatha!Pray for the peace of IsraelPsa 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May all who love this city prosper.Gen 12:3 I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you. All the families of the earth will be blessed through you.
