So this blog post will be on Psalm 22:13 (verse 12 in KJV & ESV) and you may ask what does it concern history.It concerns Golan Heights and the Six Day War or in general Golan Heights and it’s significance in history and it’s Biblical prediction.

סְבָבוּנִי פָּרִ֣ים רַבִּ֑ים אַבִּירֵ֖י בָשָׁ֣ן כִּתְּרֽוּנִי:

Here is the original text just for groundwork

“I am surrounded by many bulls;the mighty warriors of Bashan have encircled me”

That is my take on the original Hebrew

Here is the King James version, BTW it’s verse 12 in the KJV;

“Many bulls have surrounded Me;Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled Me”

So the KJV says bulls in the second phrase but Hebrew word abirei means like a

knight or warrior but that is not super important.

For starters Bashan in ancient times is modern day Golan on the border with Israel and Syria so we have prediction of conflict between Israel and modern Golan or Golan Heights.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bashan I offer the wiki to show the connection between ancient Bashan and modern Golan.

My second point will show the more mystical side of scripture.You notice the use of surrounded or encircled two times with two different Hebrew words.In the first phrase you have the word s’vavuni (I am surrounded) from the word סבב savav meaning round or to surround.In the second phrase you have the word kitruni (encircled me)rooted in kiteir כתר meaning circe.So two different words that are meant to mean “surrounded” and what does the name “Golan” mean in Arabic ,”surrounded”

I know this prophecy is not super relevant but it shows the value and accuracy of the Bible and I know this is not a life changing blog but it goes to show the Bible would have to have some supernatural inspiration.
