Therefore, O Palestine, by his chosen messenger, the Lord has made his name known in the midst of this Jubilee Generation; and He will not let you pollute his holy name any longer: that by your conversion, the heathen shall know that He is the Lord, the Holy One of Israel. So the remnant of Canaan shall know that He is the Lord your God from this day and forward.
Yes, O Palestine, you shall know that He is your Lord God, which caused your forefathers to be led into captivity among the heathen: but He has gathered you unto your own land, and has left none of the remnant of Canaan dispersed. Yes, O Palestine, the Lord has made her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast off a strong nation: and the Lord shall reign over you in mount Zion from henceforth, even forever! Yes! O tower of the flock, the stronghold of the daughter of Palestine, unto thee shall it come, even the first dominion; by this work of Rife the Great, the Kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem!
Therefore, sing, O daughter of Canaan! Shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem! The Lord has taken away thy judgments, He has cast out thine Ashkenazi enemy; the King of Israel, even the Lord, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more!
Yes, O Palestine, you shall now learn to say, O Lord, I will praise thee: though thou was angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou has comforted me. Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation! Praise the Lord, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted. Sing unto the Lord! For He hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth. Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Palestine! For great is the Holy One in the midst of thee!
According to this, the Lord’s Jubilee Proclamation, your covenant with death is now disannulled, and your agreement with hell will not stand. You shall now come to be known as, The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord; and Jerusalem shall be called, Sought out, A city not Forsaken! For thus saith the Lord, I will remove the iniquity of this nation in one day!
Yes, O Palestine, the Lord has now planted you upon your own land, and you shall no more be pulled up out of the land which your Lord God has given to you. This is your appointment! You will now receive beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that you shall be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He shall now be glorified through your good works! Yes, for your shame you shall have double blessings! And for your former spiritual confusion, you shall now greatly rejoice in the Jubilee Portion which the Lord shall award you!
Therefore, O Palestine, the Lord will now heal your backsliding; He will now love you freely; for his anger is turned away from you! You shall now become a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God! Yes, the glory of Palestine today shall now become greater than the glory of David and Solomon’s day! The nations shall see thy righteousness, and their leaders will have to confess your glory in the Lord!
Thus will the Lord God sanctify his great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which you did profane in the midst of all nations during your Diaspora; that every nation shall know that I am the Lord, saith the Lord God — when He shall be sanctified in the remnant of Palestine, before the eyes of every nation of the world!
For thus saith the Lord, I am returned to Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem; and Jerusalem shall be called the City of Truth, and the Mountain of the Lord of hosts, The Holy Mountain. Therefore, O Zion, the day now cometh in that the most feeble among you shall become as David, and the House of David shall be as God!
Trumpet your eternal redemption... Therefore, O Palestine, you shall now become the Lord’s chosen people and He will be your God. You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am He: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no savior.
Therefore, Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Palestine; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, The Holy City. Shake thyself from the dust; arise, and sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion, you shall now be redeemed without money, and yes, you shall know the name of your Lord; by his fire you know in this day that it is He that speaks to you.
Therefore, O Palestine, receive this commandment: Turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: and rend your heart, and not your garments. Turn unto the Lord your God: for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and He repents of the evil which He brought against your fathers.
Blow the Jubilee trumpet in Gaza and throughout the Middle East! Sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly; gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
