It is all about Jesus and not Palestine !!

Palestine was the place , only.

History and the Bible are close enough
although not without huge contradictions
and many inaccuracies too .

Yet ,  we almost all agreed to call Palestine
(The Land of Canaan)
as being " the Promised-Land " .

In my humble opinion it is a wrong translation of that expression,
as it must be:"The Land of the Promises" 
instead of the Promised-Land.
 
I shall explain myself :

If we put blind-faith and theology on the side
and we use logic and science and linguistics.
Then we ask ourselves this question :
Why would God , Almighty, offer to the People of Abraham
a piece of land (Palestine). .........
what could be achieved if and when all grand-children of Abraham
would reside in Palestine , and not in Tunis , Tanzania or Timbuktu ??
Why should a Jew reside in Jerusalem
and not in Beirut, Baghdad or Bogota ??

I have no answer !!   do you ???

My sincere belief is that the promise was
the coming of Jesus of Nazareth , the Messiah .
And nothing else.

The confusion was that the meeting-place were Palestine,
and nowhere else........
but Palestine was not the promise, by  itself.


Historians and Theologians mixed this above nuance
because they saw no harm in doing so,
until the day Zionism showed up
and profited from this confusion
for to serve its own ideology and its criminal-plans.

God promised us :
a Messenger , a Savior a Prophet  a Messiah
and not a piece of land.....
what could that country do, without a Messenger , a Savior a Messiah  ??

While,the Messiah could have come anywhere on this planet
and would have delivered the same Message.


With all respect to any and all the theologians , I say :
That, God´s Promise was Jesus
 ...... and not Palestine !!


I add to say :
If Jesus came in Mexico instead of Palestine
I would still be a Christian

and
if Mohamad would have come to Berlin
instead of Mecca I would still accept and respect Islam.

and if Marx would have lived in Brazil,
and if Plato were a Canadian citizen,
and if Beethoven would have lived and composed 
in China , he would remain a genius.

It is Jesus....... ...and not Palestine !!!
so leave Palestine in Peace
and go look for Jesus !!
