Recent events have brought into the public consciousness the discussion of who has the right to the land of Israel. The answer, in fact, can be found in the Bible, in God's original promises to Abraham. God stated that Abraham's descendants would inherit the land, and we see through the kingdom of Israel that followed that God fulfilled those promises. It is my belief that the modern day nation of Israel is yet another step in the fulfillment of this promise. We can find in the Old Testament numerous passages detailing who has the right to the Holy Lands.
