The prophecies say that Israel had to be revived for God to do his final works in this world.

Isn't it strange how ovens are like Baal worship?
Isn't it strange how a formerly "dead" language like Hebrew is revived?
If there is a next world or heaven how do you know the Holocaust wasn't a mass spiritual harvesting?
Your worldview is more depressing than mind because I can conceive that many, many of the Holocaust victims are in Heaven. They were God's chosen people after all.
the nazis were actually aware of and supportive of the zionist movement
modern day israel is usually not even seen gods revival of the holy land by orthodox jews
a large majority of them denounce the country and see it as going against gods command that they stay in exile
they baal comment would be funnier if the nazis actually used "ovens" for anything other than cremation
considering that the revival of hebrew dated to the 19th century and really came into effect during and after ww1, i am confused as to how that has any connection with nazi germany
if you are not trying to link the two and are merely stating it for effect, then i do agree that it was a rather unique occurance
as to whether the holocaust was a "spiritual harvesting" or whether or not the victims are now in heaven, i will leave to you to decide
i personally dont believe either, i think that the holocaust of ww2, was a result of the depravity of a world war
the jews are not unique in having a holocaust - the word was first (and probably more properly) used to describle the genocide of the armenians during and after ww1
many groups of people (racial, ethnic, etc) have been victims through out mans time on earth
do i believe that any of these genocides or ethnic cleansings have anything to do with a gods will? well i for one dont believe it for a second
while i believe that the evidence for gods existence is less than nothing, i believe that evidence that this gods will is for humankind to kill eachother is somewhere even lessthan that
