My guess is that Francis is too big of a douche to be the AC.

How does this guy come up with Edom = Rome?

How does this guy come up with Edom = Rome?

Quite easy--

Israel is God's chosen people--Heaven's choice.
Apple pie a la mode is heaven on earth.
You always want more pie, and the anagram of "more" is Rome.

That was my question as well.

Edom (the man) was Esau and Romulus and Remus were descendants of Esau (in Jewish lore).

Wishful thinking from a “counter-missionary”.

While there are some good points to the writer’s article, I agree with you. I don’t see where Edom was ever associated with Rome other than the fact that Edom (the area to the east of Israel, that includes Jordan and Saudi Arabia) was also under captivity by all the beast empires. Edom attacked Israel often and relentlessly. Edom was never a world power, but the combined Arab world and other now Muslim countries WILL come against Israel. However, I think that Jordan does allow Israel refuge after antichrist reveals himself in the temple and the Jews flees Jerusalem. Jordan is way more moderate than many of the surrounding Muslim countries.

Just my take on Biblical prophecy.

"This guy" didn't come up with it. It is traditional Jewish teaching.

By ignoring reality: Edom = Medes (and Persians). That's not to say Israel will not face others - it will. Israel will face not a people, but a government system with roots in ancient Greece.

Zechariah 12 2"Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that causes reeling to all the peoples around; and when the siege is against Jerusalem, it will also be against Judah. 3"It will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it.
