Isaiah

Covenant with Death

In the utter destruction of Gaza, bible prophecy is coming to fulfillment in our days. Mind you, Israeli's, the rest of it will also be fulfilled. If you are able to leave Israel before June next year - flee. The whole of Israel will become like Gaza. Look at pictures of Gaza. It is the nearby future of your land. Flee if you do not want to be squeezed between the concrete slabs of your houses. This is one of the prophecies - it is from Isaiah 28:

14 Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.'

The scornful men that rule 'this people in Jerusalem' are the destructive and lawless far right government that has been ruling Israel from the end of 2022 onward. Mind that God does not speak of 'my people'. Most of those calling themselves 'Jews' are not. Most of them are just Europeans, with maybe a little bit of Jewish ancestry but by far not enough to be called 'Jews'. They came to the holy land on the tsunami of Zionism, as a front for the US-empire and for economical gains that were presented to them. That is why Jesus, in Revelation 3:9, warned for people calling themselves Jews. He did so while speaking to the church phase of 'Philadelphia' (1700 - 1900), the phase during which Zionism was born. He said the following: 'Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet.'

The covenant with death and the agreement with hell of Isaiah 28, which seems to give the rulers in Jerusalem total impunity, is the iron clad relationship with the US-empire, on behalf of which the rulers in Jerusalem have been busy to subdue the complete Middle East. And from 1948 onward, it has to be said that they almost succeeded. The submission of the Middle East came at a very heavy price for the citizens of many countries in the region, of which many cities are in ruin and many families destroyed. But never was the character of the covenant (with death) and the agreement (with hell) more visible than when the rulers in Jerusalem succeeded in a total attack on the people of Gaza. This small region where 2.3 million Palestinians lived packed together in a few big cities within an enormous wall, that was built around them, has since 2023 been totally carpet bombed, while death and destruction were being sewn. Nothing is left of what was once a flourishing district, even though it was called an open air prison and travel and trade were very restricted by the occupying power, that calls itself 'Israel'. In this interview Gaza is said to be turned into a living necropolis, a living city of death, the result of instructions, weapons and munition of the US-empire, carried out and applied by its proxy, fulfilling its duty under 'the covenant with death'.

'The covenant with death and hell is the narrow bond of the state of Israel with the US-empire. But because of Israel's behavior the US-empire has become as shame and an utter disgrace in front of the whole world. Not just because of its complicity in Israel's genocide of Palestinians but also because of all the dirt that Israel has accumulated on US-politicians, even on the US-president himself through its Mossad agent Jeffrey Epstein. Therefore the US-empire will want to free itself from its dishonorable proxy. It will usher in annihilation of its proxy and it will do nothing to stop it. As Isaiah 28 describes it: 'your covenant with death shall be disannulled'.

Therefore: hear o Israel, you shall be sacrificed. You shall be given over to total destruction by the empire that you trusted and that you relied upon since your very inception as a state. And it is not just the empire that wants to get rid of you. It is the most High under whose hands you will have to suffer. For still you do not rely upon the Lord your God. That is why He also will let your destruction come like a mighty storm that will completely level all of your cities.

It is the righteous ruling of the most High that you will be dealt by, based upon something that happened about 2000 years ago, as is said in scripture above:
16 'Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.'

The foundational stone, the tried stone, the precious corner stone is nobody else than Messiah, Jesus, who came as God incarnate, and Whom you totally rejected in every possible way until this very day.

But instead of acknowledging your evil mistake of 2000 years ago, you have stolen the land from the indigenous population, the Palestinians, in order to create an 'Israel' through the power that was given to you by the most evil empire, the world has ever seen, the USA, that started off by slaughtering the indigenous people of North America. It is the empire that got its power and authority from nobody else than satan (Rev.13:3). You have mirrored the evil empire into your own practices. You have misused religion as a foundation for the most cruel things imaginable, abominations in the eyes of the Lord, every one of them going against the very essence of the Torah.

Therefore, in your ongoing rejection of the Cornerstone, Jesus Christ, you will be crushed by this Stone and the fulfillment of Isaiah 28 will come upon you. Judgment will come, in line with the cornerstone that was once laid and that cannot be removed however much you rejected it. The righteousness of God will come straight down in accordance to the Cornerstone, Jesus, the risen One, the living One, the coming One, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last, Who is sitting at the right hand of the Power and Who will come with the clouds of heaven as the Son of man. You will be crushed by the righteous dealings of God based upon the Cornerstone, that was laid in Zion, 2000 years ago, at Calvary's cross, the mark of your utter rejection of the Righteous One, of the Holy One. As by a ferocious hail you shall be swept away from every refuge of lies and from every hiding place. You will be blown to pieces in your shelters.

'...when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.'

What is this 'overflowing scourge' that shall pass through? It is God's means of chastisement for a presumptuous and stubborn and disobedient people, that is becoming more wicked and evil by the day. It is the king of the North, that will rain down all of its rocket power upon the 'holy land' in order to destroy 'Israel' for once and for all. No missile will be left in a single warehouse when the fury of Iran will be unleashed upon the cities of Israel. The twelve day war of June 2025 will totally bleak by what I expect to happen to Israel around June of 2026.

It will all start with the famous 'abomination of desolation', of which Jesus spoke in his prophetic discourse (Mathew 24:15). Multiple prophecies concern this 'abomination of desolation'. The most famous of them is Daniel 9:27, which points to 'the midst of the week', halfway the last 7 years before the return of Jesus, the Messiah, to Whom you should all carefully listen and flee into his arms, and beg Him for forgiveness. In the words of Jesus, this abomination of desolation is the starting point of 'the great tribulation', that will plunge the world in 3.5 years of utter darkness, destruction and death. It will start with the total devastation of Israel. That is why Jesus warns those who will witness it, to flee directly from Judea.


So what is it? The Abomination of Desolation? According to Daniel 9:27, the central passage on the subject, there is not just one abomination. The text mentions 'the overspreading of abominations' - plural. The Hebrew word for 'overspreading' means 'wing' or 'extremity'. In the case of 'wing', it means: 'the protection of abominations', which is done by the 'he', the one that would 'make the covenant heavy for many for one week'. It is the prince that would come, out of the people that once destroyed the city (Jerusalem) and the temple. It is the USA, the last heir of Rome, which is again attacking the Jews, the real ones, through its Middle East proxy, called Israel. Through its military, diplomatic and financial power, the US-empire has given Israel both the means and the judicial protection to get rid of the Palestinian people. One might ask which is more evil, the unlimited wickedness of the nation of Israel or the impunity with which it is shielded as by the wings of America's great eagle?

 

The second meaning of the Hebrew word translated as 'overspreading' is, 'extremity'. It points to the abnormal, unprecedented amount of wickedness that the state of Israel is performing, with bombing campaigns upon residential areas, hospitals, mosques, bakeries, journalists, schools, universities, embassies, extrajudicial killings of scientists, negotiators and high ranking generals and ministers, imprisoning and torturing Palestinians for months if not years without any form of due process, destroying millennia old neighborhoods, pager attacks, endless sniper-attacks on small children and on poor people seeking food. This can truly be described as 'the overspreading of abominations'. With the total attack on Iran's leadership, in the midst of ongoing negotiations of June 2025, Israel has already managed to create the war they were so eagerly looking for. It lasted 12 days before the USA put a stop to it because of the devastation in Israel, caused by Iranian missiles. Yet, there will be another abomination, which will be the final trigger to a war with Iran that cannot be stopped. Together with all other abominations, it will ultimately be part of the agenda of the USA and cause 'desolation' on a scale never seen before in history, a scene of total death and destruction in the cities of Israel. As we already mentioned, this final abomination will be performed at 'the midst of the week', halfway the last 7 years before Jesus' return, and be preceded by the cessation of 'sacrifice and oblation'. The ceremonial service at one or both of the Mosques on the Haram Al Sharif will be stopped in order to make place for the honoring of the empire and its president, as we will explain below.

 

So the sequence of earlier abominations, in which the US has been giving Israel total impunity for a long list of war crimes and acts of genocide, will be followed by an abomination consisting of the desecration of the third most holy place of Islam. By this protection of extremely criminal, violent and provoking behavior, and openly participating in it, 'he', the emperor or president, will cause desolation. For 'he' and the leader of Israel, will provoke Iran through the desecration of Islam in the heart of Jerusalem. So there it is one special abomination that will bring desolation, which is seen in Daniel 12:11: 'From the time that the daily .... is abolished and the abomination that causes desolation is set up, there will be 1,290 days'. Here it is 'the' abomination, that will follow the abolishment of the daily ...' The expression ; daily sacrifice, used in most translations, is not in the book of Daniel. It is the daily or 'continuous' observance of religious ceremonies, like calls for prayer five times a day, or the gathering for the Friday prayer. This religious observance of Islam will be substituted by honor for the US-empire.

 

This abomination and its dire consequences of desolation are also clearly seen in Daniel 11:36-45, on which the teachings of Paul are based that are found in 2 Thessalonians 2:4. There Paul writes that the lawless one will sit in the temple of God, claiming to be God. The word 'temple' used there can also have a more general meaning of 'sacred place', as in Acts 19:27, the temple of goddess Diana. In Daniel 11:36-45 we see the acts of a wicked king, that will be attacked from the South and from the North, which historically are parts of the Greek empire, one stretching out over former Egypt and the other over former Persia. This wicked king can be nobody else than the highest ruler in Jerusalem, meant in the prophecy of Isaiah 28, that thinks that he is safe within a covenant with death and an agreement with Hades.

 

Reading Daniel 11:36-38, this wicked king is shown to honor only two things: himself and 'the god of fortresses', which is the US-empire, the Endtime force that would cover the complete world. The USA extends its global power through military bases, through the world financial system, through its control of the media landscape and through its covert operations and intelligence. In verse 29 we read that this giving honor to the US Empire and its president will even extend to 'the most strong holds', an expression with two quite similar words, the one meaning 'fortification' the other 'refuge'. In our view, this refers to the Mosques on the Haram Al Sharif, 'the Noble Sanctuary'. These mosques serve both as impenetrable places for other religions (prohibiting Jews from praying there, barring the building of a third temple) and places of shelter of refuge (one meaning of 'Sanctuary') for Muslims.

 

If any ruler in Jerusalem would succeed in honoring a US president within one or both of the Mosques of the Haram Al Sharif, this would be felt in the whole of the Middle East as an enormous blow to Islam and it would provoke reactions of fury. These reactions can indeed be read about in the last verses of Daniel 11: The 'King of the South' will invade (indeed, there is considerable military buildup by Egypt in the Sinai) and the 'King of the North' will storm unto Israel from the North. The way Iran can hit the cities of Israel was shown in the '12 day war' of June 2025. Had this war continued, Israel would have been totally damaged. But in the Endtime, it is not just missiles but a complete invasion, cutting through a large part of the Middle East: Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. The last verses of Daniel 11 correspond to the above text of Isaiah 28. It is 'the overflowing scourge'. Daniel 11 uses a similar expression: 'And he (the king of the North - Iran - shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. He shall enter also into the glorious land...' This 'glorious land' is the land of Israel, or rather: occupied Palestine. This attack will be so horrific that according to Zechariah 13:8, two thirds of the citizens of the land will die. The one third that will survive will be the Palestinians. They are God's true people and they will come to recognize Jesus as Lord, Savior and Messiah (Zech.13:9).

 

One could ask what will happen to 'the wicked king', the highest ruler over these people in Jerusalem. Daniel 11 says the following of him:

'And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvelous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.'

His speaking of 'marvelous things against the God of gods' speaks of his blasphemous acts in honoring the US-empire and its spokesperson, the US-president, instead of the God of the universe. But this is directly followed by: 'and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done'. The question is: when will the indignation be accomplished, and when shall 'what is determined' be done? 'The 'what is determined' often relates to God's judgment upon evildoers. The indignation is the abomination of taking away religious services of Islam and replacing them with the idolatry of ancient Rome, honoring 'the emperor', 'the president'.

 

'The indignagion' will last for about 3.5 years, completing the total indignation of 2,300 days (6.5 years), spoken of in Daniel 8, which was started by the Greek Antioch Epiphanes in a three-year long descration of the temple (164BC - 167 BC). Therefore, amidst all devastation, the desecration of the holy mosque will continue. However violent the attack of Iran on Israel might be, the US-empire will use it to bring the total Middle East under its control. We read this in Daniel 11:44,45 - Iran will weaken and overstretch itself and will be taken out by the US-empire. Upon the ashes of Israel, the 'abomination' will continue for about 3.5 years. The digital infrastructure for the ensuing worldwide reign of the empire will be far underground, out of reach of Iran's rockets. This is the beast system with 'the image of the beast' at the center, to which 'the mark of the beast' will give access. The beast's agents (seen as locusts) will 'come out of the smoke that will come from the pit of the abyss' (Revelation 9:2,3) and the beast will rise from the abyss (Revelation 9:11, 11:7, 17:8).

 

We can expect 'the king' of Israel that performs the honoring of the US-president in the mosque to escape the totality of destruction. For he knows the purpose of the provocation and the plans of the empire. He will be like  Churchill during WWII, who knew exactly where the German airforce would bomb and who used to seek refuge in another town, leaving the London citizens in harm's way. But in the end, both the empire and the state of Israel will be completely whiped out, with all their underground bunkers and shelters. Nothing will remain. That is the meaning of 'for that that is determined shall be done'. The total wrath of God will come with fullforce upon the empire and its evil proxy. God Himself shall end to the worship of the beast in the courts of the former temple. This phrase 'what is determined' is also used in Daniel 9:27, which ends with: 'and what has been determined shall be poured out upon what is desolate'. This shows us that the greater part of Israel will remain desolate after the destruction by Iran. Only part will be rebuilt for the installation of the beast-system. At Jesus' return, what is still largely desolate will again expericience the heaviest of devastations.

 

At the return of Jesus, at the end of the 3.5 years that started with 'the abomination of desolation', 'the king' of Israel will be judged, together with the US-empire and all of its vassals. They are seen in Revelation 19:20 as part of 'the beast and the false prophet' for they are the spokespersons of the US and of the state of Israel. The beast (the US-empire with all of its agents) and the false prophet (those comprising the state of Israel) will be thrown in the lake of fire. According to Revelation 20:10 satan will join all of them a thousand years later and those that were on top of the pyramid of evil, such as the US-president and the Israeli prime minister,  will be tortured there for 'ages and ages'. This devastating end of 'the king' can also be seen in Daniel 8, which gives a minute description of him. The description ends with: 'But he shall be broken without human means.' (Daniel 8:25)

 

So, the abomination of desolation will be the start of the Third World War, described by Jesus in Mathew 24. After a period of 'hearing of wars and rumors of wars' (verse 6) the time will have come for: 'Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom' (verse 7). This will be the red horse of the second seal in Revelation 6. Peace shall taken away from the earth by its rider and men shall start to spaughter one another. (Rev.6:3,4). The rider of the red horse is the US-empire.

Previous - Daniel

This will also be the start of the 3.5 year Endtime, called 'the great tribulation', announced by Jesus directly after his warming for 'the abomination of desolation'. It will take place at the midpoint of Daniel's 70th week of 7 years, so 3.5 years before Jesus' return. We expect the abomination of desolation and the start of World War III and the Endtime around June 2026. This expectation is based 3 things: (1) On the premise that the 70th week started on December 29, 2022 with the Netanyahu regime. (2) On signs in the stars around June 9, which picture the event of the second seal and the red horse. (3) On the fact that the yearly offerings that are brought by Islam, are planned for the end of May 2026. This would mean a short while between the 'abomination' and 'the desolation'. But don't wait till it is too late. Seeing the abomination = fleeing Judea. The rulers in Jerusalem could decide to use Israeli citizens as 'human shield'. That is what they've done for a long time: doing yourself what you're accusing your enemies of. Travel could be limited, as was the case in June 2025, during the '12-day war'.
