Question
I realize that many persons of Jewish nationality are not believers of Jewish religion. Of those who do believe and practice Judaism, in general, do they believe, as I do, that their return to their land in 1948 was a fulfillment of prophecy? I see this as one of the proofs that the God of the Jewish scriptures is the one true God. Do practicing Jews acknowledge this as an amazing prophetic event, as I do? Thank you so very much for your reply.
Answer
You are correct in seeing the Ingathering of the Exiles that has occurred in Israel over the past 150 years and the establishment of the State of Israel a clear and inspiring fulfillment of Biblical prophecy.
