Has it ever occurred to you that these Arab Christians may have specific gripes with the state of Israel that are separate from the historical antipathy between Jews , Muslims, and Christians?

The state of Israel (despite its pretensions) does not represent Jewry as a whole, and it’s a mistake to do otherwise.

That’s why Israel are the Dry Bones of Ezekiel 37 right now.

Ezekiel 36 sees their rebirth.

Things will change dramatically when Ezekiel 38 happens.

Which may be very soon.

False premise, proven by Arab Israelis who do not want to give up their citizenship for that of neighboring Muslim countries and doubly proven by those Arab Evangelical Christians who have escaped the tyranny of those countries. Of course, they and their families have suffered terribly under the Moslems; pity the attractive young women.

Actually it does, because of global antisemitism. Just as in the Holocaust of the 20th Century, Jews thought they could assimilate and be safe citizens in many other countries. Yet those countries turned against them, and even in those countries we deem safe now, an evil spirit has arisen as is evident in the news and even in these threads on FR.
Every soul will be tested, and then the end will come with the Glorious Messiah and all the Gentiles who hate Israel shall perish, even as Balaam and Haman perished.

Esther 6:13
And Haman told Zeresh his wife and all his friends every thing that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife unto him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but shalt surely fall before him.

Zechariah 12:1-10
The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.

In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with astonishment, and his rider with madness: and I will open mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the people with blindness.

And the governors of Judah shall say in their heart, The inhabitants of Jerusalem shall be my strength in the LORD of hosts their God.

In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.

In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
