This marks the first time the world's largest sovereign wealth fund has specifically targeted Israel for investment review. The unprecedented scale of potential divestment from a $1.4 trillion fund represents a new level of economic pressure. Unlike previous boycott movements, this action comes from a major state-level financial institution rather than private organizations or smaller political entities.

📰 What Happened
The Norwegian government announced it will review investments in Israel through its sovereign wealth fund, the world's largest, following revelations by Norway's leading newspaper that the fund holds stakes in Israeli defense companies. The review, announced by Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg on August 5, 2025, marks a significant potential shift in Norway's financial relationship with Israel and could influence other sovereign wealth funds' investment strategies.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The involvement of Norway's sovereign wealth fund represents a critical shift in global financial alignments prophesied for the end times. This review could trigger a cascade effect among other national wealth funds, potentially fulfilling Zechariah 12:3's prediction that 'all the nations of the earth will be gathered against' Jerusalem. The timing coincides with increasing economic isolation of Israel, suggesting the emergence of the economic mechanisms described in Revelation 13 where specific nations and regions can be targeted for economic exclusion. The fund's size ($1.4T) demonstrates how modern financial instruments can rapidly impact entire nations.
