The Persian Storm: Bible Prophecy and Iran’s Last Threat to Israel

Bible prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock believes that Iran must remain in the international spotlight­—with a critical and dangerous role strongly conveyed in Bible prophecy. As a longtime student of Bible prophecy, Hitchcock is convinced Iran will be a key player in bringing about future and final chaos in the Middle East. In this timely treatment—with updated content from his 2020 book Showdown with Iran—Dr. Hitchcock shows readers exactly why Iran will continue to be dangerous, with his perspective rooted in the drama of Bible end-times prophecies. He focuses especially on the books of Jeremiah and Ezekiel, where the Bible records many predictions about the region known as Mesopotamia or Persia. These ancient prophecies are seen by many as predicting an end-time rise of Iran, as well as Russia and Turkey. Do these interpretations still hold true today? What about a possible invasion of Israel? Does Iran still plan to wipe Israel off the map? And what about the role of the United States in Bible prophecy? These tension-charged dynamics are thoroughly examined by Dr. Hitchcock in these pages.
