    I have a simple question. Why Jews selected the name for their state
    Israel rather than Judah? The former had to do with the northern
    kingdom and all sorts of evil leader, Jeroboam, Nadab, Baasha, etc.
    while the latter southern kingdom was led by Rehoboam, Abijam, etc.,
    which contains the linage of Christ. After all, Jerusalem was in the
    southern kingdom.

    The notes in my Bible are interesting regarding Moab and Edom in
    Jeremiah 48-49. Edom is prophesied to become and remain forever small
    whereas Moab is supposed to become great in the latter days. Amman,
    which once was Ammon, a city of the Moabites, was very small in 1900 and
    by 1960 was over 200,000. If this truly is verification of the
    fulfillment of this prophesy, it is one case where the prophesy
    definitely preceeded the event.

     

    Many of the claims that other prophesies were written after the event
    have been confirmed as being at least highly unlikely. Writing styles
    and local references to details have been placed in the times claimed.
    Some of these details remained mysteries until the last century (doesn't
    that make us sound old, referring to the 1900's as the last century?)
    when archeologists found evidence explaining these details.
