This marks the first time a US envoy has publicly claimed Hamas's willingness to potentially disarm - a dramatic shift from their historical stance. The specific condition of linking disarmament to Jerusalem's status as a Palestinian capital directly intersects with biblical prophecies about Jerusalem's role in end-time events, particularly as it involves a major terrorist organization potentially laying down arms.
Trump Envoy Reveals Hamas Disarmament Plan for Gaza War's End
📰 What Happened
Trump's Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff revealed during a meeting with families of Hamas captives that he is working with Netanyahu's government on a comprehensive plan to end the Gaza war. The plan includes Gaza reconstruction and, notably, claims Hamas is willing to disarm - though Hamas maintains this would only occur if an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital is established. The meeting's recording was reviewed by Reuters, with Witkoff stating they have a 'very, very good plan' for Gaza's reconstruction.
📖 Prophetic Significance
Witkoff's revelation about Hamas potentially disarming represents a significant timeline marker in prophetic progression. The specific mention of Jerusalem as a Palestinian capital aligns with Zechariah 12:2-3's prediction of Jerusalem becoming a 'cup of trembling' for all surrounding peoples. Hamas's unprecedented willingness to negotiate disarmament, coupled with Trump's envoy mediating directly with Netanyahu, suggests we're entering the phase described in 1 Thessalonians 5:3 where people say 'peace and safety.' The condition of Jerusalem's status being central to this agreement precisely matches prophetic scenarios of Jerusalem becoming the focal point of end-time peace arrangements.
