It will be said about the Star of Jacob.

This has been the case, and it will be said of Israel: What has God worked and done! Indeed Israel is the Sacred History, its testimony, its prophets. It is also the picture of how God has dealt with humans through six millennia. Humans engaged in their selfish-egoistic interests, trying to reach and cover more, creating social classes according to determined monetary scopes and levelness of certain false holiness as links; and that is why he also says: Woe to them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no place, that they may be placed alone in the middle of the earth! The Creator also has had to witness in awe at a world––sometimes quoting the Jewish A. Einstein––which absolutizes all in relativity; including the perversion of the moral institution about the divine statutes and hence the sentence: Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! (Is 5:8, 20).
Israel is the Bible, is Christ Jesus: the Son of God, Jewish, according to the flesh. For Israel and through Israel we have come to God; we have known and understood His character when interacting with his creatures, and thus have now been made partakers through Christ’s blood into the Republic of Israel (Eph 2:12-13), hence the apostle Paul warned the Church in a letter to the Romans: “For I would not, brothers, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in… as it is written: there shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob” (Rom 11:23-27). That arrogance and arbitrary impiety we have seen in the Jewish people in relation to the recognition of God’s Messiah, has served as a purpose foretold by the Creator in his omniscience of the times.

In the chapter in question the name of Seth is used as representative of the nations, because he was the son of Adam (Gn 4:25), and through his descendants came Noah (Gn 5:29), from whom later came: Shem, Ham and Japheth (Gn 5:32), settlers around the world after the flood (Gn 8:13-18). Hence, when based on the passage we are told: “and destroy all the children of Seth;” it is referring to the armies and nations which will gather soon in history for the Third World War (see notes to chapters 38 and 39 of prophet Ezekiel in our book entitled Major Prophets of the Old Testament). Sometimes Ez 38-39 and Armageddon look like two different battles, or the same one that expands while the nations wear out militarily; however, they are both very close in history and end times.
