The Redemption Corridor

Understanding Sacred Topography in the Holy Land, the Pattern of YHVH, and the Way of the Messiah

Edición de la obra The Redemption Corridor

Centered in Israel’s biblical heartland, lies a narrow strip of terrain, which I believe is a chosen region, above all others on the earth. I call it The Redemption Corridor. This unique swath of land was exclusively selected by YHVH (the God of Israel) for His own sovereign work of both implementing and commemorating the redemption of humanity. Within this terrestrial rectangle, an astonishing list of familiar, biblical events (and especially their geographic locations) all appear to have been arranged in an obvious east-to-west, somewhat linear, orientation. In this book, I will explain the who, what, and where of these amazing events straight from the text of the Bible. I will further elucidate my findings and speculations using extra-biblical writings, historical sources, archaeological data, and toponymy. I am convinced the origin, function, and purpose of the Redemption Corridor is older than the earth itself, from eternity past. I believe that in our shared future, this remarkable strip of land will absolutely play the central role in YHVH’s global consummation of this terrestrial planet into Divine Holiness—the Geulah (or Redemption) foretold by the prophets (and sages) of Israel. This narrow strip of land runs lengthwise in an east-to-west orientation across the mid-section of Israel (part of ancient Canaan), including a small portion within the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan (ancient Moab). The Corridor seems to be centered on a general axis, between the environs of Mount Nebo on the east, and Jerusalem’s Temple Mount region on the west. If we are intellectually honest, we must concede that the vast majority of the content in the Bible deals with the land and tribes of Israel, the Tabernacle and Temples (past and future), the centrality of Jerusalem, the promised Messiah, and the restoration of all things. The entire biblical enterprise is designed to reveal to us, to instruct, redeem, and sanctify us, and to preserve the inhabitants of our entire planet—every single one of us—within the context of YHVH’s holiness and righteousness. If you read the Bible, it is perfectly clear. The God of Israel is seeking the restoration of all humanity, Israel and the nations together, into a direct, personal relationship with Himself, on His own terms. Once everything written in the Torah and the Prophets concerning Israel generally, and this sacred district particularly, has come to pass, the Geulah (Redemption) will be realized, that is, the long-awaited World to Come will have arrived! This is precisely what the Redemption Corridor is all about.
