Pandemic in Light of Future Events

For the past 2000 years, and more particularly over the past several hundred, scholars and students of scripture have been attempting to decipher the timing of Jesus' return. As is consistent with the purpose of prophecy, it is meant to encourage the faithful who will be present at or during the time of the foretold event. And, as is also consistent with the nature of prophecy, clarity is sharpened as the time actually arrives. What do we know for sure? Jews have been arriving in Palestine from around the world over the entire past century. They have become a recognized nation after the destruction of their temple 2000 years ago and scattering throughout the world. All the temple artifacts, including the breeding of red heifers for the sanctification of the temple, have been completed, and the temple itself has been designed and manufactured in sections, ready for immediate construction. Training of the new class of temple priests have been going on for more than a decade. And, most notably, they have conducted live lamb sacrifices each Passover since 2019 in preparation of the actual event once the temple is finally constructed.
The following events line up very well with the type of worldwide totalitarian regime described not only in the book of Revelation, but in several of the Old Testament prophets.
