that year of Jubilee!”
“‘You shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound. . . ’” 2
“So the central figure in the Jubilee of 2017 was Trump, which means he who sounds the trumpet. And the central figure of the Jubilee of 1967 was he who sounded the shofar, the ram’s horn . . . which is also a trumpet.”
“And the president’s name,” said the Oracle, “holds another meaning, similar, but slightly different. The word trump refers not only to the one who sounds the trumpet but to the trumpet itself. In the King James Bible the last trumpet is called the ‘last trump.’ 3 And when speaking of the Messiah’s second coming, it prophesies that it will come about with the ‘trump of God.’ 4 Trump means trumpet.”
“What’s the word in the original language that the word trump stands for?”
“Trump is the biblical translation of the Greek word salpinx. When the Jubilean ordinance in Leviticus was translated into Greek, the word salpinx referred to the shofar, the ram’s horn, the trumpet of Jubilee. In other words, ‘In the year of Jubilee you shall sound the shofar, the salpinx, the trump.’ So in which year does the trump sound?”
“In the fiftieth year,” I replied, “the year of Jubilee.”
“And the fiftieth year was 2017. And the year of Jubilee must be the year of the trump. The year must be marked by it. And so 2017 was the year of the Trump. It was the year especially marked by the Trump, the year he came to power. In the Jubilee the trump sounds. So in the year 2017 the Trump sounded. And the law of Jubilees specifically commands that the trumpet ‘shall sound throughout all your land.’” 5
“So the Trump sounded throughout the land.”
“And what kind of sound does it make? The sound of the shofar is loud and jarring.”
“And so the sound of the Trump was loud and jarring.”
“Think about it,” he said. “In the year of Jubilee the trump leads all things. So in the year of Jubilee America’s leader and the world’s most prominent leader was named Trump. In the year of Jubilee the Trump must lead.”
“And the Jubilean event of 2017 would begin in America . . . So in the year of Jubilee Trump led America.”
“Yes. And when does the Trump begin to sound?”
“At the beginning of the Jubilean year.”
“The presidential election took place at the end of 2016. So Trump was given the platform of the presidency to sound in January of 2017, at the beginning of the Jubilean year. The ancient law ordains, ‘You shall cause the trumpet of the Jubilee to sound. . . ’ 6 So America had caused the Trump to sound in the year of Jubilee.”
“It’s almost a play on words.”
“Such things are used in the Scriptures. And the names people are given often reveal the purpose for which they were born and appointed. The president was appointed to be a trumpet to sound in the year of Jubilee.”
“A most unlikely instrument,” I said. “And he had no idea.”
“So in your vision,” said the Oracle, “the angel told the boy that the trumpet doesn’t need to know it was appointed to sound . . . that it wasn’t about the vessel but the One who sounded it. It’s not even about what the vessel does before or after its appointed time of sounding.”
“And so it only matters that the trump sounds at the appointed time . . . and the appointed time was 2017.”
“More specific than that,” he said. “Do you remember what the United States Senate did in the middle of that year?”
“The Jubilean resolution.”
“They passed a resolution recognizing the fiftieth year and the return of the original owner, Israel, to the ancestral possession and that, as in the Jubilee, official sanction be given to that return. But according to the law of Jubilees, for that to happen, the trumpet must sound. So on the exact date that marked the Jubilee, fifty years to the day the Six-Day War began, the Senate called for the president to recognize the right of the Jewish people to their ancestral possession, Jerusalem. They called for the Trump to sound. For when the trump sounds in the year of Jubilee, the original owners receive the right to their ancestral possession. So the Trump sounded in 2017, the year of Jubilee, and the original owners, the Jewish people, received the right to their ancestral possession, Jerusalem.”
“Amazing.”
“Shall I tell you another mystery?” asked the Oracle.
“Please.”
“Do
