It's interesting the number of biblical prophecies that have come to pass in the past several decades. I just found this one, written thousands of years ago.
Amo 1:1 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
Amo 1:6 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
Amo 1:7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:
Amo 1:8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn mine hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord GOD.
The Philistines are the ancestors of the Palestinians according to many scholars. In the Acts of the Apostles, Gaza is mentioned as being on the desert route from Jerusalem to Ethiopia. The city was on the border of Israel and Egypt in the southwest part of Israel near the Mediterranean Sea. Right where it is today.
