Their history goes back to Ishmael and Isaac, Esau and Jacob.

And you shall name him Ishmael, because the Lord has heard your affliction. But he will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone, and everyone’s hand will be against him; and he will live in defiance of all his brothers.” (Genesis 16: 23)

“Two nations are in your womb; and two peoples will be separated from your body; and one people will be stronger than the other; and the older will serve the younger.” When her days leading to the delivery were at an end, behold, there were twins in her womb. Now the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau. Afterward his brother came out with his hand holding on to Esau’s heel, so he was named Jacob; and Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them. (Genesis 25: 23-26)

“I have loved you,” says the Lord. But you say, “How have You loved us?” “Was Esau not Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “Yet I have loved Jacob; but I have hated Esau, and I have made his mountains a desolation and given his inheritance to the jackals of the wilderness.” Though Esau says, “We have been beaten down, but we will return and build up the ruins”; this is what the Lord of armies says: “They may build, but I will tear down; and people will call them the territory of wickedness, and the people with whom the Lord is indignant forever.” And your eyes will see this, and you will say, “The Lord be exalted beyond the border of Israel!” (Malachi 1: 2-5)

Esau married one of Ishmael's daughters, his cousin and that is where the Arabs came from.

These two gatherings - Sydney Opera House - Dover Heights are a demonstration of the psyche passed down by Hagar to her descendants and the psyche of Isaac passed down to his descendants.

They want peace, but Hamas will not stop until every Jew is dead and Israel is a country no more.

Peace will only come if Muslims give up their faith in a false teacher and that will only come if we can show them he is and tell them about the Messiah who died for their sins.

Only God can open the eyes of the blind so they can see the truth and repent unto forgiveness.

A totally different mindset from the Hamas terrorists. I think we should start calling the Greens, Reds. If they need to be colourful, Red suits them best. This world has been so blessed by the Jewish people over time, we have much to thank them for and I pray that many will come to know their Messiah before it is too late

Excellent post Dianne.

I lament, that when push does indeed come to shove, 7th century barbaric neanderthals are better pushers...and shovers. Though Hope Springs Eternal.

I think that the pushers are learning that they can only push so far.

This reflects the world view of believers.

Believers who see God the way Jesus the Jew reflected Him, believe that god loves all humans.

Believers in Allah believe that god loves only Muslims; their god does not love non-believers, and certainly does not love the Jews.

Well said Rod.

That’s so good to hear thanks James. It’ll be a while before Aussie’s trust these leaders again, as it should be. Hopefully everyone in NSW decided to go and vote NO to the Voice after the Opera House debacle. Let’s not allow our governing bodies any more power!

Have a great day James.

We here at Lamb & Lion Ministries do indeed stand united with Israel. We stand united behind God’s chosen people knowing that He has a plan and a provision for them . (Quote from lamplighter)

James, the photo of the Jewish gathering in your article told a thousand words.

Dignity, sorrow, determination.

My response - rich admiration.

A n excellent report and your others also James. We stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters and pray God’s comfort, peace and healing for them.

SKYNews programs have had many Jewish people on, never are they angry or filled with hate like what we have seen from the other side. Just grieving and despairing the brutality and horrors that have happened to their people. 🇮🇱

Have you noticed that the "support Palestine" symbol is the same as Black Lives Matter? It's all a planned protest funded by George Soros.

George Soros is Jewish.

George Soros supports Hamas - he said so - go figure.

He is not a real Jew, he is from the Khazarian side like the Rockefellers.

He tricked people into hiding him as a Jew and then reported them to the Nazis who gave him money. Now he is a rich Nazi.

History is very revealing.

Hitler's grandmother wasn't evil!

I didn't say she was evil, she was a Jew and Hitler hated Jews yet he had a bloodline

Bless you James. I pray you are not getting any abuse. Silly of me! I pray you will be able to manage the abuse with dignity, remembering our Jewish brothers.

I do believe the gathering last night was a true reflection of the average Australian who must be wondering what has happened to our governance, in so many areas. We are forgetting, or worse, deliberately trashing on all that is compelling about Australia. Where was the PM? Thank you for highlighting the hypocrisy of our ruling elites.

Bless you.

That is indeed encouraging. May God be a source of comfort and healing for our Jewish community. Thank you James, for your continual flow of reports over the past couple days, on the horrific situation in Israel - they are all so much appreciated.
