The Last 2,000 Years

I had always wondered where in the bible was it prophesied about the last 2,000 yrs.  But He reveals the end out of the beginning.  In this last torah portion we had, I learned that it is in the story of Joseph when he descends into Egypt in Genesis 39-41.  Joseph was rejected by his brothers and handed over to the Gentiles, so likewise, Yeshua was rejected by His brothers and handed over to the Romans. And why does Genesis 39-41 account for twenty years of Joseph’s life? Because YHWH  intended for us to understand its Messianic significance. Through this He teaches us that the Gentiles would know the Messiah as a Savior for 2000 years. During Joseph’s twenty-year exile from his family, all of his characteristics seemed to be Gentile—he spoke the Egyptian language, had an Egyptian name, dressed like an Egyptian and looked like an Egyptian. His brothers didn’t even recognize him when they were brought before him after twenty years of separation. So likewise, Yeshua is known throughout the Gentile world as Jesus. His transformation into a Gentile has been so complete that most non-Jewish believers do not even see Him as a Torah-observant Rabbi any more. Furthermore, His Jewish brothers even see Him as a Gentile false God. Yeshua's words seem truer more ever day that I study the Torah.

"For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me" (John 5:46)
 
Shalom!!!
