LOL!! Then again, anytime I can recoomend Dr. Wayne Grudem, I welcome the opportunity. For any following this thread, Dr. Grudem has some excellent videos on YouTube. Just do a search on Wayne Grudem. For those who don’t know, he is on the Editor’s Board for the ESV Bible; an easy to read literal translation which I also highly recommend.
I invite people to look at this video in light of the ESV, so I’m glad you brought that up. I like the way the ESV redid the phrase “peace and safety” into “peace and security”. It illustrates, accurately, the catch phrase the world politicians have and are still pushing. You’ll hear this phrase pop-up all over the place. FWIW
A Jewish state living side by side with a Palestinian state, in “peace and security” - now just need a political leader to confirm such a deal for about, oh, 7 lunar years, or 2,520 days.
Just imagine if world “leaders” spoke about “peace and security”:

World “leaders” speak about “peace and security”:
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 English Standard Version (ESV) - The Day of the Lord
5 Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need to have anything written to you. 2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “There is -—peace and security-—,” then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.
