| Judea and Samaria sovereignty map |
UPDATED 7 September 2025: The map above purports to illustrate the areas of Judea and Samaria (light green) to which Israeli sovereignty will be applied in September. The areas in yellow indicate the six localized areas that reportedly (for the time being) will be excluded from sovereign eretz Israel.
8 Septermber 2025: The HAMAS terror attack at Ramot Junction this morning strongly indicates the map above may be nothing more than a trial balloon of wishful thinking as all of the yellow-colored urban areas are infested with islamic terror cells. The IDF will have to subdue each of them.
14 September 2025: Once again the Yesha Council has demanded that PM Netanyahu immediately declare Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria. Their slogan is "Palestine or Sovereignty."
Today's Yesha Council demand comes after the UNGA last week overwhelmingly voted for a non-binding resolution to recognize a non-existant palestinian state within Israel's borders. There remains just over one week before France and Saudis, with considerable EU backing, unilaterally recognize an independent terrorist state in Judea and Samaria.
PM Bibi Netanyahu is almost certainly plum out of options since this can of worms can no longer be kicked any further. He must annex and declare full sovereignty which will be an act on par with Israel's declaration of independence 77 years ago.

| IDF Armored Forces Enter Gaza City |
UPDATE 16 September 2025: The government of the State of Israel this Tuesday morning confirmed what Eschatology Today stated in commentary on Monday, 15 September, and several times previously in recent days - the full scale ground invasion and conquest of sprawling Gaza City (Operation Gideon's Chariots II) is now underway.
The complete destruction by IAF air power of more than 50 high-rise buildings, which previously dominated the Gaza City skyline, was preliminary to massive, heavy IDF ground forces rolling in like an armored tsunami.
We can reasonably expect the rest of this current week to be unlike anything witnessed in a very, very long time.
However, it is not enough to dwell upon these current events, as this is a time (we all know it!) to focus again on the LORD's prophetic word, the true reason for Eschatology Today to exist.
We are to be witnesses to the fulfillment of Ezekiel 28:24 and the removal of HAMAS in Gaza as a pricking brier. Make no mistake, as the LORD makes clear through Ezekiel 28:25-26, He is executing judgments on all those around Israel. These two verses clearly point to the condition of Israel in Ezekiel 38/39, the concluding judgment prior to the 70th Week of Years (Thlipsis and Megas Thlipsis).
So, now all of the "pricking briers" will receive His executed judgments. Psalm 83 is a primary overview, as is Joshua 13:1-7, as is Isaiah 11 and 17, plus Jeremiah 49. The Egyptians would do well not to ignore Isaiah 19 - but they will because they've submitted their nation to the false god of arabia, and at least for the time being according to Isaiah's prophecy. I leave it to the reader to again review what the LORD has declared through His prophets; they've all been repeatedly recited here over the past sixteen years.
I believe we're well into the terminal phase of existence prior to the Harpazo of Christ's bride. Lamps well oiled, He is coming for us!
