Keeping It Israel

What do Amalekites have to do with Hamas? A Biblical Perspective of Israel's War with Bob O'Dell

Jeff Futers/Bob O'Dell Season 6 Episode 9

In this episode of Keeping it Israel's BATTLE FOR TRUTH series, Jeff talks to Bob O'Dell, co-founder of Root Source about what Israel's war with Hamas means through a Biblical lens. How are Christians finding meaning in Israel's war with Hamas? Are they finding any at all? Is this war an example of Psalm 83? Is it signs of Gog and Magog (Ezekiel 38/39)? And who were the Amalekites in the Bible... does this war relate to them in any way? These are some of the questions addressed in this thought-provoking conversation.

Jeff and Bob also highlight that it is critical for Christians to stand with Israel and "hold up Israel's arms" during this war,  as they simultaneously show strong solidarity with Jewish people everywhere who are currently experiencing a rise in antisemitism like never before.
