Where does the Israel-Iran war fit into Bible prophecy? A frontline analysis from THE ROSENBERG REPORT

As Israel and Iran battle for the future of the Middle East, ALL ISRAEL NEWS Editor-in-Chief Joel Rosenberg believes we may be witnessing the dawn of a new era. In the latest episode of his weekly TBN show, THE ROSENBERG REPORT, Rosenberg explains why he thinks Israel could soon emerge as the region’s lone superpower.

“Israel is castrating the apocalyptic, genocidal death cult that rules in Tehran. Israel is removing the central existential threat not only to Israelis, but to the Sunni Arab world and to all people of goodwill in this region. Israel is making it possible for peace and prosperity and regional cooperation to thrive in the years ahead, rather than extremism and hatred and hatred and cruelty and genocide,” Rosenberg said.

"It's possible that when the smoke clears, this wicked, cruel, evil Iranian regime may actually fall. Let's pray that that happens,” he added.

According to Rosenberg, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long prepared for this moment – personally, politically and militarily.

“As long as I've known him, Netanyahu has warned that Iran was moving towards nuclear weapons and would have to be stopped,” Rosenberg said. “This is Netanyahu’s defining moment for years.”

Rosenberg noted that the prime minister is now doing what no other world leader has had the courage to do –confront the Iranian threat head-on by launching the pre-emptive attack known as IDF Operation “Rising Lion.”

He listed Israel’s early achievements during the first week of the conflict: eliminating Iran’s entire military leadership; targeting top nuclear scientists; destroying nuclear sites, ballistic missile factories and arsenals; and gaining full air superiority over Iranian skies.

In doing so, Rosenberg said, Israel has injected "tremendous fear in Iran's political and religious leadership," including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei – who may be Israel’s next target, he suggested.

“Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed bin Salman told me personally several years ago when I was with him, that he regards the Supreme Leader of Iran as the new Hitler,” Rosenberg revealed.

Israel’s dismantling of Iran’s regime is not only being cheered on by regional leaders and the Iranian opposition, but is also catching the attention of America's adversaries. China, Russia, and North Korea are closely watching events unfold, but none have stepped forward to defend Iran.

This is one reason why Rosenberg said he doesn't believe the current moment represents the “ultimate final showdown of the world against Israel,” as described in Bible prophecy.

"That's not where we are," he said, referring to End Times prophecies from Isaiah, Jeremiah and Daniel.

In simpler terms, the current Israel-Iran war is not the final battle of the Last Days.

So what is this moment prophetically? And where is it leading? Rosenberg raised the questions, then offered his perspective.

With both Russia and Iran “humbled” and terror groups like Hezbollah and Hamas “destroyed,” Rosenberg said, “I think it's most likely that Israel enters a new season of peace, prosperity, security.”

In light of this, he predicted that Saudi Arabia will join the Abraham Accords and make peace with Israel, and that Lebanon and Syria may follow.

“The prerequisite for Russia and Iran and all these other countries to come and surround and attack Israel in the last days – that we see in Ezekiel 38 – is that Israel's living securely in the land,” he explained.

“When Israel has been regathered, the Jews have been regathered to the Land of Israel and Israel's living securely in the land. I think that's where we're heading,” he said.
