In a stunning development, according to Israel365News, a letter of five Hebron sheiks addressed to Israeli Economy Minister Nir Barkat proposed that the Biblical city of Hebron secede from the Palestinian Authority, establish itself as an independent emirate, and join the Abraham Accords while recognizing Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people.
The fact that five prominent sheikhs have formally requested to break away from the PA and negotiate a separate peace treaty with Israel is an unprecedented move that could reshape the political landscape of Judea and Samaria.
Every Bible believer hates strife and war.
Of course, we want peace, but we want genuine peace.
A spiritual battle is going on daily. The evil Iranian regime has persecuted multitudes of Iranian Christians and Israelis. Their hellish prisons and public hangings are notorious.
In Persian, the name of the so-called “Supreme Leader” ‘Khamenei’ translates to ‘Hamanai’—he is a direct descendant of Haman the Agagite, who sought to annihilate the Jews. But Haman and his sons were hanged on gallows prepared for Mordechai in the Book of Esther.
Unless totally dismantled now, the Iranian regime led by fanatical demonic forces will invade Israel as prophesied in the Ezekiel 38-39 War. If today’s leaders will not finish the job, God Almighty will.
The so-called Grand Ayatollah has issued a fatwa for the murder of President Trump and Israeli leaders. But the God of Israel has already issued a fatwa against the mullahs in Ezekiel 38: 5, 22. I don’t know when, but God’s Word cannot be broken and will come to pass!
By way of review here are the main Scriptures in the Hebrew Bible that warn of an End-time false peace:
- Ezekiel 38:11-12 – “You will say, ‘I will invade a land of unwalled villages; I will attack a peaceful and unsuspecting people.’”
- Describes an attack on Israelis living in false security in the End Times.
- Jeremiah 6:14 – “They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. ‘Peace, peace,’ they say, when there is no peace.”
- Speaks of false prophets proclaiming peace when judgment looms, applicable to End-time deception.
And in the New Testament the Apostle Paul echoed the above sentiments from the Hebrew Bible:
- 1 Thessalonians 5:3 – “While people are saying, ‘Peace and safety,’ destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.”
- Warns of a false sense of peace before sudden judgment.
Many evangelicals see the Abraham Accords as a historic step toward peace in the Middle East, fulfilling biblical prophecies about Israel’s restoration and prominence. They often frame the agreements as divinely ordained, strengthening Israel’s security and legitimacy among Arab nations. For instance, commentators from evangelical outlets (e.g., Charisma News or CBN) have historically praised the 2020 Accords as a “miracle” of diplomacy, crediting Trump’s leadership.
Some evangelical voices express enthusiasm for the Accords’ expansion as a way to isolate militant Muslim factions and promote economic prosperity through trade with Israel. They argue that normalized relations could reduce anti-Israel sentiment in the region, aligning with Israel’s central role in End-times theology.
However, evangelical pundits are not monolithic. Some express cautious optimism, noting challenges like the dangers of a two-state solution: any entity within Biblical Judea and Samaria will be an existential threat to Israel.
Regarding specific 2025 developments, there’s the possibility of inclusion of Syria and Lebanon, as suggested by Israeli media and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff’s statements about “big announcements.”
Saudi Arabia’s potential participation in the Abraham Accords would be a major win, though pundits acknowledge the hurdle of Saudi demands for Palestinian progress.
Meanwhile, the symbolism of Abraham’s tent with its four open sides is rooted in Jewish tradition and biblical interpretation, often highlighted in evangelical and Jewish teachings. According to the Talmud (Bava Batra 75b) and Midrashic sources such as Genesis Rabbah, Abraham’s tent had four open entrances, symbolizing his boundless hospitality and accessibility to all.
This imagery reflects several key themes:
- Universal Hospitality: The four open sides signify Abraham’s welcoming nature, inviting strangers from every direction—north, south, east, and west—into his home. This is tied to Genesis 18, where Abraham eagerly hosts three divine visitors. This is upheld as a model of generosity, emphasizing outreach and inclusivity.
- Spiritual Accessibility: The open tent represents Abraham’s role as a spiritual father to all nations (Genesis 17:4-5). The four sides suggest his teachings and faith were accessible to everyone, aligning with evangelical views of spreading God’s message universally.
- Connection to the Four Corners of the Earth: The four entrances symbolize God’s promise to Abraham that his descendants would bless all peoples (Genesis 12:3). This is Israel’s role in God’s plan, with the tent foreshadowing global redemption through Israel’s Messiah.
- Divine Presence and Balance: Some Jewish mystical interpretations (e.g., Zohar) link the four sides to the divine presence (Shechinah) radiating outward, embracing all creation. Evangelicals might interpret this as a prefiguration of the Messiah’s universal call.
