Kurzbeschreibung
This book is centered around the relationship between ethnic Israel and biblical eschatology. For at the heart of biblical eschatology is what Isaiah referred to as "the controversy of Zion" (Isaiah 34:8) and what Jeremiah termed "the time of Jacob's trouble" (Jeremiah 30:7). The "controversy of Zion" refers to the historical continuum of spiritual and natural conflict over the city of Jerusalem; the past, present and future Land of Israel; and the Jewish people whose ancient history and prophetic destiny are inextricably connected. The "time of Jacob's trouble" refers to the Age-ending suffering of the Jewish people and the glorious restoration that follows. It is this time of "trouble" that lays the ancient contention and controversy to rest through the "restoration of the Kingdom to Israel" and the decisive once-and-for-all "judgment of the nations" who take part in the "final" assault on the people and the Land of Israel.
ENDORSEMENTS:
With a deep reverence for the Word, a fervent love for the Jewish people, and a burden for the maturity of the Church, Dalton Lifsey has clearly articulated a key prophetic word for this urgent hour. Dalton is a skilled expositor with insight far beyond his years. This is an invaluable book that provides clarity on a number of issues that the Church cannot afford to be ignorant about or indifferent toward; especially as the “time of Jacob’s trouble” draws near. I strongly recommend it.

Dalton Lifsey has written a clear, concise and highly invaluable work. This is a message that every believer must hear. Too much of the Church today is confused or ignorant concerning this most important subject of Israel and the end-times. As we approach the “time of Jacob’s trouble,” the crucifixion of the Church, and the return of Jesus Christ, this work will prepare us for what lies ahead. I strongly encourage all serious students of biblical prophecy to “hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church” through Dalton Lifsey and this book.

Dalton Lifsey is the face of a new breed of young leaders that God is raising up in this generation. His message comes from a life immersed in the prayer movement and a study of God’s word that I have personally witnessed and been inspired by. His teaching comes from a heart filled with love for Christ and all peoples. A critical issue at a crucial juncture in history.

Yes, there has been “identity theft;” that is Israel’s identity has been stolen by the Christian Church. Yet an “identity recovery” movement has arisen whereby it is being made clear from Scripture that Israel does have a glorious future. Dalton Lifsey’s contribution here is both clarifying and very helpful in that he challenges shallow, contemporary apprehensions of Israel’s return to the Land, following a solid biblical basis. Recommended as vital and challenging reading.
