THE TENTH JUBILEE - A PREDICTION BY RABBI JUDAH BEN SAMUEL

Sounds like this Rabbi might have been onto something.


Just 5 years till 'end times' commence?

Exclusive: Joseph Farah explains so far dead-on prophecies of 13th-century rabbi

Several years ago, Ludwig Schneider, a German-language scholar, discovered an amazing prophecy dating back to 1217 by a scholarly and highly respected rabbi by the name of Judah Ben Samuel.
He was quite famous in his time as the initiator of the Chassidic Ashkenaz, a movement of Jewish mysticism in Germany. He founded a yeshiva in Regensburg and secured many pupils. Legend has it that, as a young man, he was an excellent bowman but knew little or nothing about daily prayers. But once he got serious about his faith, legend has it that he performed many miracles. It is also reported that he was given a prophecy about the exact year of Israel’s rebirth as a nation and its redemption.

So renowned was his work, the Bishop of Salzburg asked him to serve as his personal seer.
Because most of his writings were published so long ago – before the invention of the printing press – and in German, few copies have survived. But Schneider has a copy of Judah Ben Samuel’s prophecy about the nation of Israel and the messianic era and has translated the highlights of it into English and other languages for the magazine Israel Today.
The prophecy involves the Jubilee Year cycle every 50 years. I should point out there’s much controversy about pinpointing Jubilee Years because they have not been observed in Israel since ancient times, while no one is 100 percent certain about when they should occur on the modern Hebrew calendar.
However, in the year Judah Ben Samuel died in 1217, he prophesied that the Ottoman Turks would rule over the holy city of Jerusalem for eight Jubilees. Now, keep in mind, he made this prediction 300 years before the Turks seized control of Jerusalem in 1517. In fact, the Ottoman Empire, as it would become to be known, did not even really exist yet in 1217.
According to Judah Ben Samuel, 1217 was a Jubilee Year. If he was right, that would also make 1517 a Jubilee Year.
Exactly 400 years after the Ottoman Turks took control of Jerusalem in 1517, they were driven out of the city and the Holy Land in 1917 by the Allied forces under the command of Gen. George Allenby – on Hanukkah, by the way.
But it gets more interesting still.
The rabbi also prophesied that during the ninth Jubilee Jerusalem would be a “no-man’s land.” This is exactly what happened from 1917 to 1967, due to the fact that the Holy Land was placed under British Mandate in 1917 by the League of Nations and literally “belonged” to no nation. Even after Israel’s war of independence in 1948-49 Jerusalem was still divided by a strip of land running right through the heart of the city, with Jordan controlling the eastern part of the city and Israel controlling the western part of the city. That strip of land was considered and even called “no-man’s land” by both the Israelis and the Jordanians.
It was not until the Six Day War in 1967 when the entire west bank of the holy land was conquered by the Israeli army that the whole city of Jerusalem passed back into the possession of Israel. So once again the prophecy made by the rabbi 750 years previously was fulfilled to the letter.
It certainly would be significant if indeed both 1917 and 1967 were Jubilee years considering the significance of what happened in Jerusalem on those years. But it gets better.
The rabbi also prophesied that during the 10th Jubilee, Jerusalem would be under the control of the Jews and the Messianic “end times” would begin. The 10th Jubilee began in 1967 and will be concluded in – 2017.
What should we expect to happen in 2017? I will leave that to your imagination.
But one thing is certain: Judah Ben Samuel made some truly remarkable prophecies that came to pass.

We’ll have to wait about four more years to see if his final prediction does as well.

  1. Very Interesting this article...and your blog. I read a bit also about the prophecy by a famous rabbi whose name escapes me, about the 'Messiah Ben Joseph' and how that was literally fulfilled in Joseph Smith. I found it fascinating, truly. And the more I find out about Joseph Smith, the stronger the Spirit seems to be involved in my daily walk (between stumbles of weakness, of course).

    I just discovered your blog and look forward to filling my plate. Denver Snuffer's blog along with Rock Waterman's blog amongst others, have added a lot of nourishment already.

    Blessings

  2. I find this very interesting and am curious if you are also familiar with "Daniel's Timeline" and if so your opinions of it.

  3. Have you heard John Hagee talk about the 4 red moons to happen between 2014 and 2015. That means that something bad is about to take place. Probably the war against Israel. In Obamacare we are to get the mark of the beast by 2017. Germany the E.U. and U.N. have all ask Obama to be the New World Leader Jack Van Impe showed the proof on his television show. Ready for the New World Leader the Anti Christ. Get ready people 2017 is more than likely about the Abomination of Desolation.Henry kissinger said Obama was picked to bring in the New World Order. All the news papers and magazines have talked about Obama being the Messiah we know this is not true. He has made a deal with the muslims to give them half of jerusalem and they say it will be there Capitol. The Anti Christ will make a 7 year agreement with Israel. Do your home work. God comes back at the end when all countries have turned against his chosen land not when a peace agreement is made with Israel. Do you understand??? Satan Himself.

  4. This prophecy is a fake. Others have debunked it.
