Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Israel's Exodus, Past and Future: Paper Read at the Women's Branch of the Prophecy Investigation Society, Nov. 15th, 1917
In Micah 7. 15, we read, According to the days of thy coming out of the land of Egypt will I show unto him marvellous things. The judg ments past and future, both those which fall on Israel and on their enemies, may therefore be compared. The greater number of these judg ments evidently fall when Israel is restored to the land, during the time that they are under the terrible oppression of Antichrist, and before they are delivered from their enemies at the coming of the Lord in His glory for after they have been allowed to return, the nations headed by Anti christ will make war against them and try to exterminate them. Just as Pharaoh said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil (ex. 15. 9) so the enemies of Israel at the last will say, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance (psa. 83.
A Furnace.. - The sufferings through which they passed were compared to a furnace, The Lord hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt (dent. 4. 20) and Israel will again have to pass through the fire, I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried (zech. 13. This is probably the fire referred to in Matt. 3. 11. He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire - two separate baptisms - the fire, as explained in the following verse, being that of judgment. W'hile rejoicing in the thought of their return, we cannot forget that the time of Jacob's trouble is still before them.
