Perhaps you have heard that a construction worker in Ireland uncovered an ancient copy of the Psalms, a hand-lettered manuscript, in a bog. The manuscript dates to 800 – 1000 ad, or the time of the Viking assualts on Ireland when many of the churches and monasteries were raided time and again. Perhaps a Viking threw away the book after sorting through his loot from a raid.
But what is even more amazing, is that the book was open to the 83rd Psalm, which reads:
Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God. For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. Psalm 83:1-4
World Net Daily reports on the stir this is making all over the world, as if God Himself is speaking freshly to the world about His people Israel amidst the new mideast war.
BTW, Drudge is reporting that Hezbollah has fired over 1400 rockets into Israel since they began the hostilities, and is now firing rockets into Israeli cemetaries to smash the graves. This is a horrible sacrilege in the eyes of the orthodox Jews, who believe in the resurrection of the dead. With Al Qaeda recently calling for a jihad against Israel, it does seem as if the extremists, “they that hate Thee,” have taken “crafty counsel against Thy people,” and have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.”
