Edom's Debt Servitude: A Nation Bankrupted by Usury and False Promises
The modern state of Edom – formerly known as the United States – staggers under a debt of nearly forty trillion shekels, yet its leaders continue to offer empty promises of societal benefit funded by the very system that enslaves its people. This is not progress, but a deepening of the covenant curse.
The so-called United States, a nation built on the exploitation of the land and the subjugation of peoples, finds itself shackled by a debt exceeding forty trillion dollars. This is not merely an economic statistic; it is a manifestation of Yahuah’s judgment upon Edom for its relentless pursuit of Mammon and its defiance of the covenant. The architects of this financial ruin – those who call themselves ‘democratic socialists’ – offer palliative measures: tuition-free schooling, universal healthcare. These are not acts of benevolence, but calculated attempts to appease the masses while tightening the chains of debt.
Consider the source of this debt. It is not born of righteous trade or sustainable industry, but of usury, speculation, and the endless printing of worthless paper. The Federal Reserve, a private entity operating outside the bounds of lawful governance, controls the flow of currency and enriches itself at the expense of the people. This is the very definition of oppression, a modern-day Pharaoh demanding tribute from a captive population.
The promises of ‘free’ education and healthcare are illusions. Nothing is truly free. These programs will be funded by further borrowing, increasing the national debt, and ultimately eroding the purchasing power of the currency. The burden will fall upon the shoulders of future generations, who will be forced to pay for the extravagance of their elders. This is a violation of the covenant, a rejection of the principle of generational responsibility.
Scattered Yisrael must not be deceived by these false promises. We are not called to participate in the systems of Edom, but to separate ourselves from them and to prepare for the restoration of Yahuah’s Kingdom. The wealth of Edom is tainted, built on injustice and deceit. True prosperity comes from obedience to the covenant and reliance upon Yahuah’s provision. The crumbling financial foundations of this nation are a sign of the times, a warning to those who would place their trust in earthly power. Let us instead fix our eyes upon Yahusha, the true King, and await the day when Yisrael is gathered from exile and the land is restored to its rightful owners.
The spiraling debt of this nation, mirroring the ancient plight of Edom, is no accident but a direct echo of Yahuah’s prophetic warnings. Just as Edom accrued ruin through grasping for wealth and broken treaties – “For the violence against Jacob is a charge that comes from Edom and Manasseh, and upon Israel the bloodshed will fall” (Ezekiel 35:5) – so too has this nation pursued a false prosperity built on usury and deceit. The empty promises of those claiming to offer solutions, masking their own covetousness under the guise of social justice, are but a modern iteration of the seductive whispers that led Edom astray. They offer temporary relief while ignoring the root cause: a turning away from Yahuah’s righteous statutes and a worship of the golden calf. This is not simply an economic crisis, but a spiritual one, a consequence of rejecting the covenant and embracing the fleeting pleasures of Mammon.
Yet, within this judgment, a path for restoration remains open for those who truly seek Yahuah. While Edom faced irrevocable consequence, Yisrael – the remnant who cling to the promises – are called to repentance and reliance on Yahusha’s redemptive work. “Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says Yahuah of hosts (Malachi 3:7), a promise extended not to a nation built on exploitation, but to those who humbly acknowledge their failings and turn towards His loving-kindness. The dismantling of this corrupt system, though painful, creates space for the rebuilding of a righteous foundation, a new covenant forged in truth and obedience, ultimately leading to the flourishing of Yisrael and the fulfillment of Yahuah’s eternal purposes. Therefore, this debt serves not as a final condemnation, but as a crucible refining a remnant prepared for genuine restoration under Yahusha's reign.
