Donald Trump: An American Jehu

Is there a prophetic connection between the unlikely rise of Donald Trump to the presidency of the United States and a bloody rebellion waged by an obscure ancient Israelite king that destroyed a corrupt political dynasty?Students of biblical prophecy have long been aware of the concept of the ‘prophetical template,’ a means of interpreting recorded biblical events as the foreshadowing of future historical events. With the Bible full of historical detail concerning the kings of ancient Israel, could there be lessons from key moments in Israelite history that we can apply to today’s often confusing political climate? This essay explores possible answers to this intriguing question and speculates on how one particular event in Israelite history seems to have remarkable, yet disturbing similarities to current events in modern American politics—is the hand of God at work in Trump’s America?(Given the fluid nature of current events surrounding Donald Trump’s presidency, it is expected that the Kindle edition of this work will receive future and on-going updates as events warrant them—Unfortunately it has come to my attention that your Kindle device’s Automatic Book Updates will not receive these updates when and as they happen. Subsequently, I will be posting these updates on a page on my website Saturn Death Cult under the menu Donald An American Jehu. T.D.M., 22 March, 2019)
