For those who are unfamiliar with this subject, it is found at Jeremiah 16:14-16, especially v. 16:

“¹⁴ Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Yahweh, that it shall no more be said, Yahweh liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; ¹⁵ But, Yahweh liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers. ¹⁶ Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith Yahweh, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.”

First of all, it is paramount that we establish just where “... the children of Israel from the land of the north ...” is a reference to! Surely, as we shall see, it wasn’t old Palestine. All of this becomes obvious when we consider 2 Sam. 7:10:

“Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime ....”

In the time of Samuel, the children of Israel were already located in what the Greeks later called Palestine, so the phrase “... and will plant them ...” has to refer to some place other than Palestine! Not only were the children of Israel to be planted some place other than Palestine, but when they had finally settled down in that new location they would “... move no more ...”! Hence, all this malarkey about the Edomite-Israeli-jews returning to the Holy Land, and fulfilling prophecy is nothing more than a nauseating discharge of feces!

The following is an article which I wrote in 1995. I wrote it on a Canon StarWriter #70. I just recently learned how to transfer materials written on the Canon StarWriter to my computer. The Canon StarWriter only had enough memory for about five and one half pages of writing. I originally had to write this article in five segments because of this. Since transferring it to my present computer, I now have it in one complete article. In transferring it, I lost all my underlining and bold print among other things, but just saving the main text saved me a lot of typing. After a five year period of time, I found things which I desired to change, so the following article will not be exactly as I originally wrote it. I originally entitled it simply The Problems With Ezekiel 38 And 39. I decided, with this writing, to change the title as you see it above.

If we are to understand this portion of the Bible, we are going to have to know who, what, when, where, why and how all of this Prophesy fits together. The first thing that has to be established is, WHO? For if we cannot establish who, the entire Prophesy will be an enigma, it will be a total mystery. I will try to establish beyond all doubt, with materials that have been established before me, as to who the who is. I am going to quote quite extensively from The Russian Chapters Of Ezekiel by one Rev. W. M. H. Milner. The articles first appeared in The National Message, published in London, England in the weekly issues of May and June, 1923. It was printed again as a Fifth Edition by Destiny Publishers, Haverhill, Massachusetts, in 1941. While this booklet is very good at establishing the who of Ezekiel 38 and 39, some of the conclusions at the end are probably incorrect. The booklet is a must for studying these two chapters, and can still be obtained from Destiny Publishers, P. O. Box 177, Merrimac, Massachusetts, 01860-0177 for $2.50 plus postage. I will be quoting also from other authors and commentators on these two chapters. After we have established some of the necessary background, we will speculate just where and maybe when this great battle may take place.

For the title of this brochure, I searched for a special font to impress upon the reader that the subject being addressed is indeed about “the broken-bottle nation”. I found an appropriate font named Matisse ITC, and you will notice how shattered it appears. I could have used other synonyms for “broken”, such as “totaled”, “finished”, “ruined”, “destroyed”, “smashed”, “wrecked”, “demolished”, “shivered”, “fractured”, “splintered”, “spent”, “expended”, “terminated”, “crushed”, “shattered”, “pulverized”, “dashed”, “consumed”, etc. I would like the reader to grasp that we are addressing something that cannot be salvaged, restored, renovated, rehabilitated, rejuvenated, reinstated or revived in any way, shape, manner or form. That it’s totally defunct, extinct, dead, never to be resurrected. Yet the majority of pastors fail to understand as much!

What we are talking about here is Jeremiah’s prophecy at 19:1-11, which reads: “¹ Thus saith Yahweh, Go and get a potter’s earthen bottle, and take of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the priests; ² And go forth unto the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell thee, ³ And say, Hear ye the word of Yahweh, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus saith Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever heareth, his ears shall tingle. ⁴ Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents; ⁵ They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind: ⁶ Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Yahweh, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of slaughter. ⁷ And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcases will I give to be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth. ⁸ And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing; every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof. ⁹ And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them. ¹⁰ Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with thee, ¹¹ And shalt say unto them, Thus saith Yahweh of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a potter’s vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.”

Why Doesn’t Your Pastor Ever Speak Of Them? 

[A notice to the reader: You will find this article posted on several websites crediting it Willie Martin as the author. That is not true, for I am the author. Willie used to be on my mailing list before he died and he could type about 107 words a minute, and when he received my mailing he would type out my brochures and parts of my Watchman Teaching Letters and attach them to E-mails. Willie Martin was a plagiarizer and passed on my and many other writer’s works as his own. I checked the date on my computer when I first formatted this document into brochure form, and it is registered as December 19, 2000. Since that time I have circulated hundreds, if not over a thousand, of these brochures to people on my mailing list. How then, can Willie Martin write any article under the same title that I gave to it? To do so is highly unethical! The childrenofyahweh website has been very honest with me by posting my material the way I wrote it. I have given permission for people to copy my material freely or order it from me at a cost lower than they could copy it themselves. There is one place that I draw the line though. I do not give permission to anyone to add to my articles nor to subtract from them, but to reproduce them word for word exactly as I wrote them. I insist that anyone who wants to post any of my articles on the Net, post them word for word as I have written them or not post them at all! Let’s now continue.]

Did you know while the Holy Bible speaks of “fishers” it also speaks of “hunters” in the very same verse? If you are unfamiliar with this pregnant fact, I will quote it from Jeremiah 16:16:

“Behold I will send for many fishers, saith Yahweh, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.”

Have you ever wondered why your pastor emphasizes with very much intensity and vigor the subject of the “fishers”, and never so much as mentions the “hunters”? It’s as though the Bible had never mentioned the topics of the “fishers” and “hunters” in the same verse! Have you ever asked your pastor why he never mentions the “hunters” in all his lengthy and seemingly detailed sermons? After all, your pastor graduated from seminary and knows all of this, right? Of course, it is probably just a slight oversight on his part that he has never taken the time to explain this to you, right? Or, maybe, he has so many other more important things to dwell on, he simply does not have time for the insignificant “hunters.” Has your pastor ever used Jeremiah 16:16 for his text?

This is not a treatise to condemn anyone who was born and raised in Catholicism. I would say from the start that some of the Catholics I have known are among the finest hardworking, moral and honest people I have dealt with. Not only that, but there are a few Roman Catholics who have exposed the great “Jewish” conspiracy, such as William Guy Carr, Charles E. Coughlin and other conservative Catholics who weren’t afraid to speak out and take a stand for justice, for whom I have the highest respect. Neither is this a composition to gloss over Protestantism, for Protestantism is nothing more than warmed-over Catholicism. I view these religious systems as stages we’ve gone through in our deserved Israelite punishment of seven times, or 2,520 years since being taken captive by Assyria. Rather, this theme is a brief effort to determine how we have arrived at where we now stand.

Daniel prophesied at Dan. 7:24-25: “ ²⁴ And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. ²⁵ And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”

You will notice that this earthly power was to last “until a time and times and the dividing of time”. A “time” in Scripture is 360 years, so this amounts to 360+720+180 or 1260 years, not 3½ calendar years as some maintain. Since this exceeds man’s life span, it is not speaking of one individual man, but there are key men involved.
