Did Yahweh fail in his Promise To Abraham? by macof(m): 9:54pm On Aug 31, 2014
Whats your answer? Has Yahweh failed in his promise??
The promise Yahweh made to Abraham in
Genesis 15:18-21
Yahweh made a covenant with Abram,..I
will give thy seed this land from the rivers
of Egypt unto the Great river of
Euphrates, covering all the lands of the Canaanites"
This land covers from mt. Sinai in
Egypt to Syria
Pls what happened to Yahweh that he has
only succeeded in giving Hebrews less than
30% of the land he promised??
Why are Hebrews not owners of Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria

Pre second world war, Israel(nation) wasn't existing in that geographical location. It was occupied by Palestine though there was zionism until after the war when Israel was carved out in 1948. The arab nations revolted.

During the 6 days war of Arab-Israeli War in June 1967, Israel grab some land territories from the neighbouring arab countries, Golan Height from Syria, West Bank From Jordan and Sinai Peninsula and Gaza Strip from Egypt. Many of these seized territories have been returned base on the UN directives.

Base on the above, we can't 'really' say Yaweh failed in his promise!

My good sir. let's examine this carefully

I assume you know middle eastern geography well

The river of Euphrates isn't jst Golan Height and the West bank. It flows directly into Syria and out.
which means the greater parts of Syria, from the West to the city of Halabiye is part of the promised land, the whole of Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan which is between the rivers of Egypt and Euphrates

See photo of the land that goes between these body of waters which Yahweh promised

Everyone says. The Jordanians, Lebanese and Palestinian for example are mostly of Amorite, Edomite, Philistine and Phoenician ancestry. If am nt mistaken The old Phoenicia is the same location as Lebanon

Everyone is entiled to his/her opinion, but as long as they could not provide proof their opinions do not matter.

Abraham had many sons and the probability is very high that they spread to those places after the original owners had been overthrown.

WTF is wrong with u dude??

You ask for proof that this people have always been in their land when in the same post you make an assumption without any Proof.

What child of Abraham ever ventured into Lebanon, or Syria?? Name one battle in the entire Bible that a child of Abraham overthrew this people..
"probability is very high" my foot. you know nothing about probability..if you don't know history and geography pls get lost, we not talking probability here

Go study your Bible and stop listening to pastors who want to keep deceiving you for tithes, seeds and offering

actually in the post, i said since they were able to seize some territories of the neighbouring arab nations, one can still say Yaweh hasn't totally failed.

@OP. Of course not. Knowledge of God or the Bible shows that God does His part and man has to do his too.God gave them all that since the days of Joshua. Same way today God has given us ALL things needed for life and godliness. Play your part, it is unto you according to your.

Hast thou read the prophecies regarding to regathering of the lost tribes of Israel? That includes us negroes.

Those in Israel today are foreigners, converts. Edomites. The most high shall drive them out, as prophesied.

Are you a reprobate.

Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled"

bro! actually, world politics today isn't something one can absolutely explain using religious knowledge. If religious knowledge is applied, one won't have solid premise to stand on.

Biblicaly, the land was promised by God to be given to the Israelites i.e the descendant of Abraham. and they were given. The exodus of the Israelites started from Egypt, wandering through the present Sinai Peninsula. The then Israelites were dealing with God.

Suddenly, Israel as a nation vanished from the map and restored by the final action of the UN after the 2nd World War, 1948 precisely. Though before then, there had been Zionism i.e the nationalist idea of creating a jewish home that will liberate them from the antisemitic treatment, discrimination and persecution like it was in Germany.
The Jews were from different part of the world.

The today's Israel is a nation dealing with the UN not God as the then Israel. There are many differences

1 different origin and exodus: The then Israel had their origin from Egypt.
The present Israel had the Jews coming from different origins like Poland, US, Canada, Germany, UK and even South Africa. Definitely, there are different exoduses for them.



2 Different reasons for exodus: The then Israelites' reasons were to liberate them from Egyptian slavery, going to the promise land and finally to serve God.
The present Israelites' reasons were to have a home of their own where Jewish culture will be practised and liberate them from antisemitic treatment and persecution.



3 God gave the biblical Israelite the promise land while the UN interfered into the Jewish claim of palestine(seems to be part of the former ottoman empire then). Even if the Present Israel embarks on expansionism like it was in the 6 days war of June, 1967, The UN will still try to anchor them. Hence, the reason why they were told to release the areas of dispute claimed from the neighbouring arab nations.

[b]had you presented the map showing the territorial jurisdiction of the biblical Israelites and Israel didn't occupy the promised territory, we could then conclusively say YAWEH has failed in his promise.

Where you going with this?? are you saying old Israel is not of the geography of the Israel of today?
Where was Israel then?? In America?? Or deep in the Mesopotamian mountains??

Israel is Israel. No other Israel ever existed.
The most you can say is the "promised land" was part of Israel at a time, which you would need to prove
