Day 243 Swords of Iron – “Jerusalem our eternal capital”
Chaim starts out the video by letting his viewers know that he’s recording it from “the heart of Rafah” standing in the gap so that terrorism will not win and Israel will remain free.
He then moves on to start talking about the ancient attachment that the Jewish people have to Israel and particularly the city of Jerusalem. In this context he quotes II Chronicles 6:6; Yet I have chosen Jerusalem, that My name may be there, and I have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’
This verse tells one of the many reasons why Jerusalem is unique because it’s the place where God has put His name. In this context, Chaim quotes Deuteronomy 12:5; “But you shall seek the place where the Lord your God chooses, out of all your tribes, to put His name for His dwelling place; and there you shall go.
Also in this context, Chaim quotes Psalms 132:13-18; For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His dwelling place: This is My resting place forever; here I will dwell, for I have desired it. I will abundantly bless her provision; I will satisfy her poor with bread.
I will also clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy. There I will make the horn of David grow; I will prepare a lamp for My Anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, but upon Himself His crown shall flourish.”
Chaim says that the nations will come to help rebuild Jerusalem, and he quotes Isaiah 65:18; But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Chaim points out that the Hamas massacre on October 7th was called by Hamas “the Al-Aqsa Flood” which refers to the mosque that sits on top of the location where the Jewish Temple once stood. They have their own vision for the future of Jerusalem, and it’s not the same vision that is outlined in the Bible.
In this context Chaim quotes Zechariah 9:9; But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem as a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
Chaim says that all the nations will soon come to Jerusalem to meet the Messiah.
