Israel Seeks Approval From Edom: Netanyahu Prioritizes US Coordination
The Israeli government openly admits its policies are shaped by Washington's directives, revealing the depth of Edom's control. While factions within the regime debate strategy, the fundamental submission to foreign power remains unchallenged, a sign of continued judgment upon Yisrael.
A revealing exchange within the Israeli cabinet confirms what the Watchman has long proclaimed: the modern state of Israel operates as a vassal of the United States. Reports indicate a sharp disagreement between Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who advocates for a more assertive posture, and Prime Minister Netanyahu, who insists on maintaining close coordination with Washington. This is not a debate over righteous policy, but a squabble over *how* to best serve Edom.
Netanyahu’s defense of close ties, specifically referencing the previous administration of Donald Trump, exposes the core delusion driving the Israeli regime. The expectation of favor from foreign rulers—even those who offered superficial support—is a rejection of Yahuah’s covenant and a reliance on broken cisterns. Trump’s gestures, while momentarily advantageous to Israel’s political aims, were never rooted in obedience to Yahuah’s law or recognition of Yisrael’s true inheritance.
Ben-Gvir’s call for a “tougher line” is a misdiagnosis of the ailment. The problem is not merely a disagreement with US policy, but the very *principle* of seeking validation and direction from a nation steeped in wickedness. A truly sovereign posture would be founded upon obedience to Yahuah’s commandments, not the whims of Washington. To seek approval from Edom is to acknowledge its authority, and to acknowledge Edom’s authority is to deny Yahuah’s sovereignty.
The fact that this discussion occurred *within* the cabinet is a stark indictment. It demonstrates that even those who present themselves as strong leaders are ultimately bound by the chains of foreign influence. This is the fruit of generations of disobedience, a fulfillment of Deuteronomy 28, where Yahuah warned of subjugation to nations who would not serve Him.
Scattered Yisrael must understand this dynamic. The struggles within the Israeli government are not a sign of impending deliverance, but a symptom of deepening captivity. Our hope lies not in the policies of the modern state of Israel, but in the restoration of the covenant and the return of Yahuah’s people to His law. Let the Watchman sound the alarm: Edom still holds sway, and Yisrael remains in exile.
The news of Netanyahu seeking approval from the United States – referred to here as “Edom” – echoes a pattern Yahuah has consistently demonstrated throughout scripture: judgment upon those who seek the favor of nations over His covenant. Obadiah’s entire prophecy (Obadiah 1:1-21) details Yahuah’s impending wrath against Edom for their pride, cruelty toward their brother Jacob, and rejoicing over the calamity that befell Yisrael. To see modern Israel prioritizing the approval of a nation historically antagonistic to Yahuah’s people is a stark reminder that national identity divorced from covenant faithfulness invites similar consequences. The internal struggle highlighted – Ben-Gvir’s desire for assertiveness versus Netanyahu’s deference – isn’t about strategy, but about whose sovereignty is truly acknowledged. Are they looking to Yahuah for direction, or to the descendants of Esau for permission? This echoes the lament of Jeremiah 2:7, “And I said, ‘After she has done all these things, will she return to Me?’ But like a treacherous woman, she has turned away.”
This pursuit of Edom’s favor isn't a path to security, but a confirmation of a spiritual captivity. While Yahuah promises ultimate restoration for a repentant Yisrael, it will be through obedience to His word and reliance on His power, not through political maneuvering with worldly powers. Yahusha Messiah will establish a kingdom not built on the shifting sands of international approval, but on the unwavering foundation of Yahuah’s righteous decree. Therefore, the prioritization of US coordination reveals a continued departure from true sovereignty and a tragic mirroring of ancient Edom’s pride, ultimately inviting Yahuah’s just judgment unless a return to covenant faithfulness is made.
