In the book of Esther, King Ahasuerus on Sivan 23 issued the decree authorizing the Jews to defend themselves against their enemies, June 19th is Sivan 23.

Sometimes in the Bible you find an amazing nugget, other times you find some fascinating coincidence. This one from the book of Esther is one of those two things, and we will let the reader decide. In Esther 8, we see Mordecai on the authority of King Ahasuerus have a writing written which authorized the Jews to rise up against their enemies, which result in the ‘good day’ celebrated every year on the Feast of Purim. Sivan 23 was not only a ‘good day’ for the Jews, it was a game-changer of a day. Do you know what tomorrow, June 19th is, on the Hebrew calendar? The 23rd of Sivan. That’s the memo.

“Then were the king’s scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.” Esther 8:9 (KJB)

How does this tie in with the war in the Middle East happening right now between Israel and Iran? For the past 72 hours, Donald Trump has dropped clue after clue that he is planning on the United States striking the Iranian nuclear plants, and taking them out. With each passing day, the chatter regarding when this might be has swelled to a fever pitch. For this to happen on Thursday, the 23rd of Sivan in the Hebrew calendar, would place it squarely between an amazing coincidence and a true biblical nugget. Donald Trump as King Ahasuerus ‘issuing a decree’ and authorizing the Jews to defeat their enemies on the exact same day it happened in the book of Esther? Game on.

President Trump has approved of plans to attack Iran, maybe on Sivan 23

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: US President Donald Trump told senior aides that he approved of plans to attack Iran, but he is waiting to see if Iran will abandon its nuclear program before giving the final order, three sources familiar with the discussions said to the Wall Street Journal.

As previously reported by The Jerusalem Post, Commander of US Central Command (CENTCOM) Gen. Michael Kurilla met with US President Donald Trump and presented him with military options regarding Iran. The WSJ reported that when Trump was asked earlier if he had decided whether to strike at Iran’s nuclear facilities, the president said, “I may do it, I may not do it.”

He also repeated his insistence on Iran’s unconditional surrender: “The next week is going to be very big, maybe less than a week.” On Wednesday, Trump reportedly arranged for a meeting with Iranian Foreign Ministry officials.

On Wednesday, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei rejected Trump’s demand for unconditional surrender, as Iranians jammed the highways out of Tehran, fleeing from intensified Israeli airstrikes. He warned that if US attacked Iran warned that if it attacked Iran, the United States “without doubt will face irreparable harm.” READ MORE
