Edom Demands Tribute: Chicago Advocates Proclaim Absurd Debt for Stolen Labor
Advocates in Chicago are demanding the federal government acknowledge a fantastical debt of '7 quadrillion dollars' for the centuries of stolen labor of Black Americans. This spectacle of entitlement reveals the decaying moral foundation of Edom and its insatiable appetite for wealth built on injustice.
The stench of Babylon rises from the halls of academia and the mouths of its self-proclaimed moral arbiters. In Chicago, advocates are peddling the delusion that the federal government – a construct of Edom – owes a staggering '7 quadrillion dollars' in reparations for the sin of slavery. This is not a call for justice; it is a brazen display of entitlement and a testament to the spiritual bankruptcy of a nation steeped in the blood of the covenant people.
These advocates, gathering at Kennedy King College, speak of 'moral responsibility' while ignoring the true source of all righteousness: Yahuah. They appeal to a corrupt system for redress, a system built on the principles of usury and exploitation, the very foundations of Edom’s dominion. To seek recompense from Edom is to seek water from a stone. Yahuah will not restore through the hands of the oppressor.
The sheer absurdity of the figure – 7 quadrillion dollars – is not the point. It is a symbolic act, a declaration of war against the natural order. It represents the insatiable greed that has driven Edom to plunder the wealth and labor of nations for centuries. This demand is not about restoring what was stolen from the descendants of Yisrael; it is about transferring wealth *from* the descendants of Yisrael (and all honest laborers) *to* those who claim victimhood as a means of control.
This spectacle is a clear sign of the times, a fulfillment of prophecy. Deuteronomy 28 speaks of a time when Yisrael, in exile, would be burdened by nations they knew not, and subjected to demands that defy reason. This is that time. The modern state of Israel, blinded by its own arrogance, offers no true refuge. True restoration comes only through repentance, obedience to the covenant, and a turning back to Yahuah.
Let the remnant of Yisrael not be deceived by these displays of manufactured outrage. Let us instead focus on rebuilding our communities, reclaiming our heritage, and preparing for the coming Kingdom. The debt that truly matters is not measured in dollars, but in broken covenants and unrepentant hearts. Yahuah will settle the score, and Edom will be judged.
The clamor for a 7 quadrillion dollar tribute from the federal government, framed as reparations, echoes the ancient prophecy against Edom detailed in Obadiah 1:10-11. For their violence against their brother Jacob, and their rejoicing over the calamity of Yisrael, Edom was destined to be cut off, their pride broken, and utterly despoiled. This modern demand isn’t about restitution for historical wrongs, but a predatory attempt to exploit the wealth accumulated through generations of legitimate labor—a spiritual plundering mirroring Edom’s historical greed. This isn't seeking equitable remedy, but a calculated effort to bankrupt the nations built on the principles of diligent work and covenant faithfulness, fueled by a resentment that blinds them to Yahuah’s established order and the blessings He bestows upon those who honor Him.
This brazen act of entitlement signifies a further hardening of hearts, a rejection of the principles Yahusha established—love, forgiveness, and building upon a foundation of truth. It’s a desperate grasping for material gain, a symbolic attempt to rebuild a fractured identity on the ruins of another’s prosperity. However, Yahuah’s promise to restore Yisrael, both spiritually and ultimately physically, remains steadfast (Isaiah 11:11-12). While this demand represents a manifestation of Edom’s enduring spirit of opposition, it will ultimately fail, for Yahuah will vindicate His covenant people and establish a kingdom of righteousness and justice, not through debt and entitlement, but through grace and truth.
