Truman’s  decisive  actions  were  a  factor  that  enabled
            large  numbers  of  Jews,  whose  ancestors  had  been
            scattered into all parts of the world, to return to Israel,
            their ancient homeland.


            Immediately upon Israel’s declaration of its Statehood, a
            Confederacy  of  Arab  nations,  eerily  similar  to  what  is
            described  in  Psalms  83  (see  Chapter  3,  pages  78-79),
            waged all-out war against Israel.  But they didn’t know

            the power they faced!  While it seemed that Israel stood
            helpless to defend itself, Israel quickly stood victorious -
            against all odds!  They had a powerful ally; “If GOD is for
            us,  who  can  be  against  us?”  (Rom.  8:31).    When  the
            battles settled, it was clear who was at Israel’s side.  It
            was unambiguously, the GOD of Israel (Is. 27).


            President  Truman  stood  firmly  with  Israel  during  this
            pivotal  time.  In  doing  so,  Israel  still  regards  him  as  a
            modern  King  Cyrus  whom  GOD  raised  to  deliver  them
            from Babylon.


            Was  King  Cyrus  a  paradigm  for  President  Truman?  A
            highly  esteemed  Bible  scholar  and  teacher,  Jonathon
            Cahn,  explained  in  his  book  “Paradigm”            [26]   how
            President Truman followed the paradigm of King Cyrus,
            the great Med-Persian leader who conquered Babylon.
            Isaiah prophesied  that a King named Cyrus  would free

            Jews from Babylonian captivity.  Isaiah’s  prophecy was
            given more than 200 years before Cyrus was born.  GOD
            raised  Cyrus  and  placed  him  in  the  precise  location  at
            precisely  the  time  in  history  to  fulfill  HIS  plan  for
            restoring Israel from its 70 years of Babylonian captivity
