Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has revealed that plans for Israeli settlements in northern Gaza are prepared and awaiting Prime Minister Netanyahu's sign-off, alongside broader calls for West Bank and Gaza annexation. This development is prophetically significant as it signals Israel's potential move toward asserting sovereignty over the biblical lands of Judea, Gaza, and Samaria — territory at the heart of end-times geopolitical tension. The Bible speaks of Israel's restoration to its covenant land in the last days, with Ezekiel 36:24 declaring God would bring His people back to reclaim the land given to their fathers.
