The partnership between India and Israel is fortified by shared problems, mentalities, and opportunities, and the friendship between the two nations is only set to grow in the future, a group of Indian political figures, entrepreneurs, activists, influencers, journalists, and commentators told The Jerusalem Post. “Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister [Benjamin] Netanyahu, what they cemented during this visit was that we are civilizational partners,” said Vijeth Umbalagodu T

Amid attempts by some in Israeli society to prevent women from serving in combat roles in the IDF, the air force is quietly establishing a special commando unit, similar to the General Staff Reconnaissance Unit, composed entirely of female soldiers. An IDF official said that its creation represents a broader shift in the mindset of the IDF, and the air force in particular, toward integrating women into significant and complex combat roles. The air force noted that after the w

New research from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) uses C14 dating of preserved organic samples taken from one of two ancient fortresses in the Arava in southern Israel. The findings suggest they were built by the biblical kingdom of Israel almost 2,800 years ago, and not by the Assyrian empire decades later. With no systematic data or information to rely upon, the consensus among scholars was that the fortress, built over a perfect square measuring 100 meters (328 feet

Israeli defense electronics company Rafael Advanced Defense Systems has unveiled Storm Shield, a compact electronic warfare system designed to protect unmanned aerial vehicles operating in highly contested airspace and anti-access/area denial environments. With electronic warfare being widespread, and so many unmanned aerial vehicles, especially tiny ones, being activated, it is difficult to find a solution in the market. Therefore, Rafael created Storm Shield, which provides

For the first time anywhere in the world, desalinated seawater is being pumped into a freshwater lake, as Israel begins transferring Mediterranean water into the Sea of Galilee, also known as the Kinneret, in an unprecedented project described by officials as a safeguard for the country’s water security. Construction began in 2018, and the project was inaugurated in 2022 at a cost of roughly NIS 900 million ($269 million). It has now reached full-scale operation following the

Israel was the most attacked country in the world by geopolitically motivated hackers and malicious actors in 2025, as the country’s multifront wars with the Hamas terror group and Iran and its proxies spurred a spike in cyberattacks, according to the annual global cyber threat analysis report published by Israeli cybersecurity firm Radware. With 12.2 percent of all global geopolitically motivated cyberattacks directed at the country over the past year, Israel is a

The largest-ever purchase of an Israeli-founded tech company was completed after multiple anti-trust regulators cleared the acquisition of cybersecurity unicorn Wiz by Alphabet’s Google for a staggering $32 billion. The deal, first announced in March last year, amid Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza, marks the largest purchase of an Israeli-founded company after US giant Intel Corp bought Mobileye, a Jerusalem-based developer of advanced vision and driver assistance systems, fo

The Jewish State is no coincidence, nor is it the product of the whim of the nations. The Jewish State is the work of God, who is pulling the strings behind the scenes and using the nations for His affairs. This State is necessary for the Lord’s return: Only in this way can biblical prophecy be completely fulfilled. Israel’s current existence is like a guarantee of Jesus’ return. It is a reality, and is inexorably approaching. The final fulfillment of God’s history with Israe

Encouragement from Biblical Prophecy Many Christians who concern themselves with biblical prophecy are accused of being pessimistic or negative about the world. They’re seen as “prophets of doom and gloom.” While this may be true of a few of them, the opposite is really the case. Christians with a sound theology of biblical prophecy are encouraged, joyful, thankful, able to look to the future with confidence, and able to encourage others. Their enthusiasm is contagious. They

For the first time since Israel occupied the territory in 1967, the government will create a mechanism to officially register large swaths of land under the state. Far-right Finance Minister Bezalal Smotrich said the land registry would continue “the settlement and governance revolution across all parts of our land” as he referenced Judea and Samaria, the biblical term for the West Bank. Israel captured the West Bank from Jordan in the 1967 war and subsequently began establis

Israel will come back from a hopeless situation. If we look at the entire history of the diaspora, as well as the Nazi death camps, then we see that they will return and become one people again. Some commentators view Ezekiel 37 as already having been fulfilled at the return from Babylonian captivity. This could indeed be one fulfillment, but did everything recorded in the chapter happen at that time? The wind comes from all four directions, whereas the return from Babylonian

Bet Shemesh Engines, which makes parts for engines used in Israeli fighter jets, has secured a $1.2 billion contract for the supply of critical jet engine components to one of the world’s leading aircraft engine manufacturers, the company said. Founded in 1968, Bet Shemesh Engines designs, develops, and manufactures parts and components for jet engines, including castings of blades, forging of disks, and machining of rotating parts. Based around the city of Beit Shemesh, outs

When we con­sider Ezekiel 37 in its overall context, its primary focus isn’t the resurrection of the dead, but the miracle of the restoration of Israel and the Jewish people. The theme is the return of Israel to its land and the people’s spiritual renewal. I’d like to begin this topic with two men who lived at the same time and shared the same first name. One lived in Europe, and the other across the pond in the US. Both were Bible-believing Christians who were convinced the

Question: Why should Palestinians who have lived in Jerusalem for hundreds of years be evicted from their homes so that Jews from Brooklyn can live in them? Answer: After World War II, millions of German Citizens were removed from German lands that were lost to expand Russia and Poland. The land of Prussia ceased to exist, their old Prussian capital Königsberg renamed by Russia to Kaliningrad. The German city of Strasbourg was retaken by France. It did not matter that Strasbo

Zechariah 12 talks about the national repentance of Israel in turning to Christ. This is a future event. About a quarter of the Scripture is prophecy. In Amos 3:7 it says, “For the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets.” There’s a famous verse from Proverbs 25:2, which says, “It is the glory of God to conceal things, but the glory of kings is to search things out.” God gave us a brain, and he expects us to use it … to invest brain pow

Although Israel has a relatively high incidence of melanoma compared to many countries—partly due to frequent sun exposure (intentional when getting a sunburn) or unintentional, and the prevalence of unprotected fair skin among many residents—the mortality rates are relatively low thanks to early detection and good treatment outcomes. According to the Health Ministry, there are between 1,700 and 2,000 new diagnoses of this type of skin cancer in Israel every year. Worldwide,

In the eighth and seventh centuries BCE, Assyria was the superpower in the Near East, ruling an empire that stretched from Egypt in the southwest to parts of modern-day Turkey in the north and all the way eastward to parts of modern-day Iran. At the time, the Jewish people were split into two kingdoms: Israel in the north and Judah in the south. As Assyria and Egypt faced off, the two kingdoms were forced to choose: would they side with Egypt to the south or Assyria to the no

“ I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him ” (Hosea 14:4). The prophet Hosea does not mince words. Unashamedly, he reveals Israel’s horrible sins. One trembles when reading words like, “cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel” (Hosea 1:4b); “I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel” (v. 6); and in verse 8, “I will not be your God.” Verse 10 adds, “Ye are not my people.” Before we proceed, we must realiz

A brief overview of our ministry to local churches through the work at the Beth Shalom Hotel. We were privileged to host our second conference for Children’s Ministry leaders from across the country. The conference was organized by Medallion and Beth Shalom. The goal was to provide leaders with practical ministry tools, as well as encouragement and spiritual guidance. Beth Shalom Hotel regularly hosts a variety of Messianic conferences. One of our primary concerns is to be a

European governments that condemn Israel and announce sanctions still line up for its air defense systems, as fears of Russian drones and other threats override political boycotts. At a joint appearance in Jerusalem, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz warned against any steps in the West Bank that might amount to annexation, insisting there should be “no formal, political or structural measures” in that direction and reiterating that “recognition of a Palestinian state should c
