One of the points I forgot to mention to you earlier. The “theme” throughout most of the Prophets is one of ultimate deliverance of Israel as a nation. Hard to ignore when reading the OT prophecies. For example:
Isaiah 46:3-4 NASB
“Listen to Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of the house of Israel, You who have been borne by Me from birth And have been carried from the womb; Even to your old age I will be the same, And even to your graying years I will bear you! I have done it, and I will carry you; And I will bear you and I will deliver you.
Good morning redleghunter! Of course, you'll get no argument from me! Outside of Messiah, the second biggest prophecy chunk goes to Israel, and in that, most is about the House of Israel. I think that folks that say all prophecy points to Messiah, haven't read the prophets.
Equally, The Inheritance - Folks that say that all the promises given to Abraham land on Yeshua, simply have not read the Book. LOTS of stuff is promised to the tribes - the lion's share, most definitely to Ephraim, and to Manasseh, which cannot end up in Messiah (Judah).
