Following a settler attack that killed four Palestinians and two Israeli soldiers, Israel arrested wounded Palestinians inside a hospital and shut off access to Nablus in the occupied West Bank. The West Bank continues to be a flashpoint of escalating violence, reflecting the deepening instability over the land God promised to Abraham — a land that Scripture indicates will remain a source of intense conflict until the end of the age. Zechariah 12:2-3 warns that Jerusalem and the surrounding region will become 'a cup of trembling' and 'a burdensome stone for all people' in the last days, a pattern visibly intensifying across the West Bank today.
