THE KEY OF PROPHECIES 

Jesus appeared to a Lebanese priest on May 13, 1970 and told him: "Open chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation: the Beast is Israel". This revelation is a "Key" which explains all the apocalyptical symbols of the Book of Revelation (Refer to our text: "The Key of the Apocalypse").

This "Key", which opens the apocalyptical mysteries kept sealed till now, also opens all the previous mysterious prophecies of the Bible, Old and New Testaments, concerning the end of times. This Key, as shown below, clarifies prophetical symbols such as: "Gog and Magog" (Ezekiel 38,2 / 38,9 and 38,15 / Revelation 20,7-8), "The Abomination of Desolation" (Daniel 9,27 / 11,31 / 12,11 / Matthew 24,15), "The Final years" and "The End of Times" (Ezekiel 38,8 / Matthew 24,14-15), "The Great Tribulation" (Daniel 12,1 / Matthew 24,21 / Revelation 7,14).

Furthermore, "the first Resurrection" (Daniel 12,2 / John 5,29 / Revelation 20,5-6), "the two olive trees" (Zechariah 4,4 and 4,14 / Revelation 11,3-13), "the measure of Sanctuary" (Ezekiel 47,3 / Revelation 11,1-2) are explained. More information can be found on our site in the text "The Key of Revelation".

In order to understand chapters 38 and 39 of Ezekiel, we have to recall Ezekiel's historical context. The Jews, then, were exiled in Babylon and the Temple was destroyed. They eagerly waited to return to Palestine and reconstruct the Temple, as it still is the case today. We also have to remember Daniel's mood: he, too, was anxiously waiting for the Temple's reconstruction (Daniel 9). Ezekiel foresaw the Jews back in Palestine in a strange manner: "Gog and Magog" are the ones invading the country helped by many nations (Ezekiel 38 and 39 / Revelation 13,2-3 / 13,12 and 20,7-9). He also saw the "measure" of the new Temple, a measure nevertheless which does not correspond to the dimension of the second Temple. God explains this fact by saying that the message is for "the end of times", the apocalyptical times, which will witness the definite end of the State of Israel. Notice the exaggerate borders of Israel in Ezekiel 47,13-23. This exaggeration, in my opinion, has been added by the "lying pen of the scribes" (Jeremiah 8,8).

The Revelation explains all the Biblical prophecies

With the explanation of the book of Revelation as revealed by Jesus on May 13, 1970, all the previous biblical prophecies regarding the period of the end of times become clear.

The "Key" of the book of Revelation thus explains all the mysterious prophecies in the Bible (Old and New Testaments) regarding the years of the end of times: "Books were opened (those of the Bible) and then another Book was opened (the Book of Revelation), which is the book of life" (Revelation 20,12). The Life meant is, of course, the Eternal Life: it is the first Resurrection (Revelation 20,6) awarded to those who believe that Jesus did explain the Book of Revelation.

Considering the importance of this Key, three prophets of the Old Testament foresaw the opening of the Book of Revelation:

Isaiah even foresaw this Book coming from Lebanon: "Is it not true that, in a very short time, Lebanon will become a productive ground…that day the deaf will hear the words of the Book and, delivered from shadow and darkness, the eyes of the blind will see…" (Isaiah 29,17-20). The Book meant is the Book of Revelation that grants spiritual Life.

Ezekiel 2,8 up to 3,2: "Open your mouth and eat…a Book…and it tasted sweet as honey". Compare with "the little open Book" in Revelation 10,2-11. This Book (or Scroll) was sealed and only Jesus Christ could open it (Revelation 5).

Zechariah sees a book of judgement "flying" (Zechariah 5,1-4). It is, once again, the opened book of Revelation, "flying" on Internet, penetrating everywhere and judging the consciences.

The Prophecies aim the "End of times"

The expression "the end of times" means the end of the times allowed to the State of Israel.

Ezekiel 38,8: "Many days will pass…in the final years"… 38,16. "In the final days, I Myself shall bring you (Israel) to attack my country (Palestine)".

Compare with:

-Rev 1,1 and 1,3: "The time is near…".

-Rev 20,7-9: "When the thousand years are over…Satan will gather Gog and Magog from the four quarters of the earth and mobilise them for war… They came swarming over the entire country (Palestine) and besieged the camp of the saints, the Beloved City (Jerusalem)…".

See also:

-Daniel 12,4-13: "Daniel, keep these words secret and sealed until the time of the End (Apocalyptical time. Today, at the end of time, these words are no more secret, they are explained through the Book of Revelation).

-Matthew 24,14-15 and Luke 21,20-36.

The divine purpose

God's purpose -by allowing the Jews to return from all over the world to Palestine- is to show to the whole world His Glory and His Almightiness as well as those of His Messiah, Jesus, particularly to the Jews, those who have rejected Him, those who "pierced" Him (Ezekiel 38,23 / 39,21-29 / Zechariah 12,10-14 and compare to Rev 1,7 and 18,8).

Gog and Magog are gathered in Palestine "from the four quarters of the earth" for war

-Ezekiel 39,2 (from the extreme borders of the North: Ukraine, Russia, etc…) / Ezekiel 38,5 (from Persia: Iran, and from Ethiopia : the "Falasha" (the black Jews of Ethiopia who settled down in Israel). Compare with Rev 20,7-9 / Zechariah 2,10.

-Ezekiel 39,17-20 compare with Rev 19,17-18.

-Zechariah 12,9-11 compare with Rev 16,16.

The unexpected and upsetting conclusion: Gog and Magog, today, are Israel itself, no one else. "You are that (criminal) man", said the prophet Nathan to the king David (2 Samuel 12,7). The prophet Nathan of today is the Angel of the Book of Revelation designating Israel: "You are the Beast, you are Gog and Magog, you are the Babylon of today and the Abomination of Desolation". The State of Israel has deceived Jews and Christians, even their mighty chiefs, as well as the whole world as predicted. The final, unexpected and upsetting decline of Israel is near, more than it was yesterday in Megiddo (2 King 23,29-30 / Rev 16,16).

A clarifying addition

Streams of rain and hail…. Ezek 38,22 / Rev 16,21. They are the modern grenades and bombs.

Measure of the Temple: Ezek 40,3 / Zec 2,5-9 / Rev 11,1. The measure is the apocalyptical message.

The Water Source: Ezek 47,1-2 / Rev 22,1. This Water of Life is Jesus Himself: John 4,13-14 and 7,37-39.

The doors of the Temple: Ezek 48,30 mentions only 12 doors: the 12 tribes, whereas, Rev 21,12-14 adds 12 foundation stones (12 doors, the 12 tribes + the 12 foundation stones, Jesus' apostles). Ezekiel's Temple lacks the 12 foundation stones, which are the 12 apostles of Jesus, "the Corner Stone". That's why Ezekiel could not cross the River of Life at his time because the Messiah, Jesus, had not yet come (Ezek 47,5).

The name of the City: "Yahweh is there " (Ezek 48,35). The Book of Revelation says: "Look here God lives among human beings. He will make His home among them and He will be their God, God-with-them" (Rev 21,1-3). 

The Revelation is the Book of the new Spiritual Life, a regenerated spiritual life (Rev 20,12 / Rev 22,17), a new Heaven and a new, spiritual Jerusalem belonging to Emmanuel, "God-with-them" (Mat 1,28 / Rev 21,1-3). We find no material temple in it (synagogues, churches, mosques etc…): "I could not see any temple in the city, since the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb were Themselves the Temple" (Rev 21,22). The true temple God wants is, therefore, not a material one, but is the heart of the true believers; that's where God dwells: "Do you not realise that you are a Temple of God with the Spirit of God living in you?…God's temple is holy and you are that Temple" (1 Corinthians 3,16-17 / see also 1 Peter 2,4-6 and John 4,21-24).
