A Nation Tall and Smooth-Skinned
IS THIS a prophecy of the United States hiding in plain sight?
Isaiah 18 is a mysterious chapter that seems to describe a future attack on Jerusalem by a faraway tall, clean-shaven people, feared far and wide, whose land is divided by rivers. If that doesn't describe the United States, what does?
However, it's not as simple as that. The verse describing the tall, clean-sh...

'Damascus Will Cease to Be a City'
AN ALLIANCE between the northern kingdom of Israel and the Aramaean kingdom of Damascus forms the backdrop of this prophecy of the city’s ultimate destruction.
In a callback to chapter 7 of Isaiah, this is an “already but not yet" prophecy of the destruction of Damascus. It was captured by the Assyrians in 732 BC, but it has continued as an occupied city (possibly the ol...

THE DESTRUCTION of the kingdom of Moab by the Assyrians was prophesied by Isaiah, although God took no pleasure in it.
At the time Isaiah wrote, the Assyrians were expanding their empire to the west and swallowing up smaller kingdoms like Israel, Ammon, Edom, and Moab. The Moabites had been enemies of Israel and Judah for centuries by the time of Isaiah. Through the prophet, God warned Moab of its imminent destruction.

The Secret Oath
The secrets of creation were contained in an oath—and one of the fallen Watchers demanded that Michael reveal to him the "secret name" so that those who heard the oath would quake before it.
That's one of the revelations in this week's study of 1 Enoch. Bear in mind, this section of the book was written just before the birth of Jesus so any specifics regarding the names of fallen angels and thei...

Dead Gods and Dragons
Isaiah’s polemic against the king of Babylon is, in our view, also a condemnation of the entity who led the rebellious sons of God in Genesis 6.
We discuss the connections between “Lucifer” and the netherworld, especially the references to the “branch,” which is actually a loan word from Egyptian that means "dead god," and the “dead body trampled underfoot&rdq...

Punishment of Angels and Kings
A DAY is coming when fallen angels and evil rulers throughout the centuries will regret their decisions to rebel against God.
The chapters we read from the book of 1 Enoch prophesy a time when kings and the mighty plead for a respite from their torment so they might come before the throne and worship God. Sadly, their opportunity to repent has passed.

Lucifer is not Satan.
In this week study, we dig into the Hebrew name translated Lucifer in the king James Bible, Helel Ben Shachar. Scholar William Gallagher showed in a peer reviewed paper more than 30 years ago that Helel was the West Semitic (i.e., Hebrew) transliteration of the Akkadian deity Ellil.
This entity was known by many names in the ancient Near East, including Dagon, Assur, El, and Milcom (and thus Mo...

Giants Are Coming
GIANTS AND WATCHERS will execute God's judgment on the prophesied Day of the Lord.
Isaiah 13 is, on the surface, a prophecy of judgment on Babylon. But there are clues in this chapter that there's more to this prophecy than meets the eye. First, the Hebrew verb translated "consecrated" (as in "consecrated ones," Isaiah 13:3) is based on the same root behind the words “holy one/s” in...

After 200 years of idolatry, God finally allowed the northern kingdom of Israel to be destroyed and the people carried off by Assyria.
Meanwhile, the southern kingdom of Judah was being ruled the young, foolish, idolatrous King Ahaz. After being defeated in battle by the Aramean Kingdom of Damascus, Ahaz decided to worship the gods of Syria rather than turning to God for help. He also sacrificed his son to Molech in the Val...

After several chapters of prophecies of destruction at the hands of the Assyrians, Micah concludes his book with a promise of restoration for the people of Israel.
Although there are some differences between the Masoretic text on which the old Testament of our English Bibles is based and the Septuagint, which was translated from Hebrew into Greek by about 200 BC, the overall message is the same: God will chastise His people...

Who is the Assyrian?
The Bible foretells a mysterious character called “the Assyrian” who seems to have a role in the end times war against Israel. Who is he?
What’s odd is the Hebrew text of Micah 5:5–6 (and Isaiah 14:25, 31:8, and 52:4) lacks the definite article “the.” In other words, there is no "the Assyrian" in the Old Testament.

Judgment of the Kings and the Mighty
The Book of 1 Enoch prophesies a day when evil kings and rulers would be judged by a messianic figure called the Elect One—the Son of Man.

Woe to the Oppressors!
The ruling elites of ancient Israel were compared to cannibals eating the flesh of those they were supposed to protect.
We continue with the prophet Micah's polemic against ancient Israel's ruling class, who apparently took advantage of the poor and downtrodden. For that reason, God told Micah to prophesy a day of judgment that would bring destruction on the rich and powerful.

A VISION of Noah's was inserted into the Book of 1 Enoch, with interesting references to Leviathan and Behemoth.
These are chaos monsters. Leviathan, described as female and from the sea, and Behemoth, male and occupying the wilderness—possibly the same one into which the Watcher Azazel was thrown as punishment for his role in corrupting humanity.

ASSUR WAS a name that referred to Assyria, the capital city of Assyria, and the chief deity of Assyria. Knowing which was which means relying on the context in which it's used.
