A devotional commentary from Behold Israel argues that the occurrence of biblical prophecies about Israel in the modern era affirms the Jewish state's identity as the biblical Israel. The message questions Christian critics who distance themselves from Israel, asserting that the root of Israel remains and that Christians are grafted into it.
A devotional commentary published by Behold Israel, a Christian Zionist ministry, argues that the fulfillment of biblical prophecies about Israel in the modern era affirms the Jewish state's identity as the biblical Israel. The post, distributed via email newsletter, asks: 'If the root, believing Israel, has been cast off then who are Christians grafted into? If modern Israel is not Biblical Israel then why are the things prophesied about Israel happening to the nation?' The commentary reflects ongoing theological debates among evangelical Christians regarding Israel's place in biblical prophecy. The Zioneer has previously reported on analyses of shifting Christian attitudes toward Israel, including concerns about anti-Israel sentiment within the Christian right.
