the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus
Christ.”
“And to the Woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into
her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the Serpent.”
(Revelation 12:14) It is evident that Jews will flee to a place of protection from the Antichrist and that a
remnant will be saved through this period of time.
Zechariah 13:8-9 NASB “It will come about in all the land, Declares the LORD, That two parts in it will be
cut off and perish; But the third will be left in it. And I will bring the third part through the fire, Refine
them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer
them; I will say, "They are My people,' And they will say, "The LORD is my God.'
Micah 2:12 NASB “I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will
put them together like sheep in the fold (Bozrah - KJV); Like a flock in the midst of its pasture they will be
noisy with men.”
Micah 2:12 KJV “I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I
will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah (fold - NASB), as the flock in the midst of their fold: they

When the Antichrist tries to finish Israel off at Bozrah/Petra in Edom (The Sheep Pen of the Remnant) ...
Jesus Christ returns to save them ... After the Battle of Armageddon, His clothing reflects the Winepress
of God in Isaiah 63:
“Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in His
apparel, travelling in the greatness of His strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to Save.
Wherefore art Thou red in Thine apparel, and Thy garments like Him that treadeth in the winefat? I have
trodden the Winepress alone; and of the people there was none with Me: for I will tread them in Mine
anger, and trample them in My fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon My garments, and I will
stain all My raiment. For the Day of Vengeance is in Mine heart, and the year of My Redeemed is come.
And I looked, and there was none to help;
and I wondered that there was none to
uphold: therefore Mine own arm brought
Salvation unto Me; and My fury, it upheld
Me. And I will tread down the people in
Mine anger, and make them drunk in My
fury, and I will bring down their strength to
the Earth” (Isaiah 63:1-6 KJV)
Petra is located in a basin within Mount Seir
and is totally surrounded by mountains and
cliffs. The only way in and out of the city is
through a narrow passageway that extends
for about a mile and can only be negotiated
by foot or by horseback. This makes the city
easy to defend, and its surrounding high cliffs give added meaning and confirmation to Isaiah 33:16 . . .
The name Bozrah means “sheepfold.” An ancient sheepfold had a narrow entrance so that the shepherd
