OUR FATHER WILL STRIKE THOSE WHO STRUCK HIS PEOPLE
The book of Zachariah chapter 14 verses 10 - 15 says this;
10 All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be raised up and inhabited in her place from Benjamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate and the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winepresses.
11 The people shall dwell in it; And no longer shall there be utter destruction, But Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited.
12 And this shall be the plague with which the Lord will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem: Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, Their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, And their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths.
13 It shall come to pass in that day That a great panic from the Lord will be among them. Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor, And raise his hand against his neighbor’s hand;
14 Judah also will fight at Jerusalem. And the wealth of all the surrounding nations Shall be gathered together: Gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
15 Such also shall be the plague On the horse and the mule, On the camel and the donkey, And on all the cattle that will be in those camps. So shall this plague be.
In this passage, the prophet Zachariah provides some details of the renovations that were going to occur in Jerusalem and surrounding area. The region would be brought to grade so that the city would be surrounded by a flat platform. The city itself would be raised above the platform.
The nations that attacked Jerusalem and remained a threat to Jerusalem would be struck by what appears to be a nuclear blast where the population would dissolve where they stood. The animals of the hostile nations would also be struck by the plague that would be visited on them.
Amen.
