Egypt will not rule over other nations

Prophecy written between 593-571 BC
Ezekiel 29:15
15It shall be the lowliest of kingdoms; it shall never again exalt itself above the nations, for I will diminish them so that they will not rule over the nations anymore.

Continues to be fulfilled
Before Ezekiel, Egypt had dominated many nations, including Israel, for centuries. During the last 2500 years, however, Egypt has been controlled by the Romans, the Ottomans and the Europeans. Egypt has unsuccessfully tried to dominate Israel at least 3 times in the 20th century. Egypt hasn't rulled over any other nation since Ezekiel's time.

In truth and righteousness.'

Israel's deserts become like the Garden of Eden

Prophecy written between 701-681 BC
Isaiah 51:3
3For the Lord will comfort Zion,
He will comfort all her waste places;
He will make her wilderness like Eden,
And her desert like the garden of the Lord;
Joy and gladness will be found in it,
Thanksgiving and the voice of melody.

Fulfilled during the 1900's
During the 1900s the Jews have reconditioned a desolate country through advanced cultivation and irrigation techniques. In the late 1800s Israel was almost a wasteland but has become a major food source for many countries. In the last century over 200 million trees have been planted and are thriving in Israel.

Massive number of Jews would return to Israel

Prophecy written between 701 to 681 BC
Isaiah 43:5-6
5Fear not, for I am with you;
I will bring your descendants from the east,
And gather you from the west;

And to the south, 'Do not keep them back!'
Bring My sons from afar,
And My daughters from the ends of the earth-

Fulfilled early 1900's
Jews living in the Middle East moved to Israel, as well as hundreds of thousands living in Europe and the United States. At first Russia forbid Jews to move to Israel, but they relented to pressure put on them from other countries and permitted Jews to move to Israel during the 1980s. Hundreds of thousands moved to Israel from Russia since then. Ethiopia, south of Israel, didn't allow Jews to move to Israel. However, in 1985 Israel and Ethiopia's communist government came to terms and Ethiopia allowed Jews to move to Israel. Ehiopia was paid a ransom, but on May 25, 1991, 14, 500 Jews were airlifted back to Israel.
