Jeremiah’s Prophecy of the Great Tribulation and Israel’s Deliverance By: Junior Tate When I read Jeremiah 30, I believe we are looking at one of the most important Old Testament prophecies concerning Israel and the end times.

Scripture presents Armageddon as the final gathering of rebellious earthly powers against the Lord Jesus Christ when He returns in glory. The word “Armageddon” appears only once in the King James Bible, but the events connected with it are described in several passages throughout the Old and New Testaments....
