DIVINE DOMINION: Israel’s expansive vision of land and power
Divine dominion exerts a formidable influence in the Middle East, with Israel positioned at its centre. The nation’s persistent military actions in Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, and the West Bank suggest motives that may extend beyond simple border defence and when geopolitics and the quest for power interweave with religious fervour, the promise of true peace has always remained elusive. From the misty heights of Sinai to the embattled borders of the modern Middle East, two intertwined visions—GREATER ISRAEL and DAVID’S CORRIDOR—offer a striking lens on how ancient promises collide with contemporary power politics.
