America and Jonah?
Is America in Bible prophecy?
The answer must be: Yes.
Although it is not easy to understand where in the Bible .
Let us read the Prophet Jonah, all 4 chapters of it.
Now there is a parallel between the life of Jonah and of the Jews, specially the two tribes of Israel.
1. Disobedient, going away from the Lord.
Compare King Zedekiah, see Jeremiah 52.
2. Jonah thrown into the sea.
In Revelation 17:15 the waters are a symbol of the nations.
The disobedient people of Israel will be dispersed among the nations.
3. In the sea Jonah is caught by a big fish.
While the Jews are living among many nations, they are brought together by a strong nation, nazi Germany, in the 2nd World War.
A normal behavior for a fish that swallows something is that the essences in its belly will start breaking down this food. I think that Jonah did not look very beautiful after he had been in this fish. The people of Nineveh must have seen that he had been in the place of death.
When the rest of the Jews come out of the concentration camps, they look like coming back from death. See also Ezekiel 37, the bones coming together.
But the people of Israel were dispersed among many nations, so to be able to bring them together in these camps, the ruler who wanted to do that had to occupy these countries first.
We know that Hitler did exactly that.
4. After the time that Jonah was in Nineveh, he builds himself a small shelter east of that city.
The Jews went east of Europe, where they came from, and rebuild the fallen hut of David.
See Joel 2.
5. God gives to Jonah a big tree for better shelter.
King of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar, is called a big tree under which branches many nations take shelter.
There is only one nation in the world that gave the new state of Israel from the start real protection and that is the US. They are the big tree that grew fast.
Really by taking part in the 2nd world war and fighting against Germany and Japan made the US a world power. This took only a little time.
But that big tree will die suddenly. That is the lesson from Jonah 4.
6. After the tree in Jonah 4 dies, the hot eastern wind starts blowing.
This means in scripture always a big war in Israel.
7. Than the heat is so great that Jonah wants to die. Now the Lord comes to him and explains His plans with Nineveh.
Here we see tribulation time, a time that people seek death but death is fleeing from them. Read in Revelation 9:6.
At the end of this most terrible time the Lord Jesus comes back on earth and the Jews will see upon Him, Who they sent to the cross. Now the Jews will understand that Jesus is their Messiah. And they will mourn over Him.
This parallel between the live of Jonah and history of Israel is clear.
The consequence is that the big tree is America.
