Question Author
At this point it is worth noting that although the Jews were scattered and persecuted, and were not in contact with each other, yet they remained a nation, a nation without a land, held together by their faith in God, and their holy scriptures, the Torah, and their prayer, "Tomorrow in Jerusalem."
Here is my dilemma. Answerbank posts are too restrictive for me to rewrite the whole history of the Jews, and compare it to prophecy.
I can post a link to a YouTube video that explains it, but then I get ridiculed for doing so. It's just like me recommending a book to you and getting criticised for that.
Some of the atheists on here misunderstand me, thinking I want to preach a sermon and convert them.
That is untrue, it is not my job to convert anybody, only God can do that.
In fact I don't have a job to do at all, except to converse with others willing to do so.
More to come.
