Scripture: Psalm 44:22-23
"But for Thy sake we are killed all day long; We are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. Arouse Thyself, why dost Thou sleep, O Lord? Awake, do not reject us forever."
Commentary:
The targeting of Jews gathered for Hanukkah in Australia reflects the painful reality that antisemitism remains an active threat across the world. It's unsettling how violence can erupt even during moments meant for joy and faith. People on the ground feel exposed and abandoned. These tragedies echo patterns Scripture described—hatred against God’s people persists wherever they are scattered. The persistence of such attacks shows that prophetic warnings about hostility and persecution against the Jewish people remain terribly relevant.
Prophetic Trend:
Antisemitic violence abroad is intensifying, aligning with prophetic patterns of global hostility toward Jews as the end of the age approaches.
