You'll See

Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not: Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you. And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.-Matthew 11:20-24***Judah was the 4th son born to Jacob (Israel) and his 1st wife Leah. Over 1,700 years after Judah and his siblings died in Egypt, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist. The Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus, and the Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. For 40 days Jesus fasted and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and Jesus went to Galilee. Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites. Jesus spoke of Chorazin, Bethsaida, Tyre, Sidon, Capernaum, and Sodom. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal no details of the goings-on in Chorazin. In Bethsaida in Galilee, Jesus met a blind man whose eyes were opened and sight restored after Jesus was brought to the man. Simon Peter, Andrew and Philip, 3 of the 12 disciples and apostles of Jesus the Christ, were from Bethsaida. Capernaum became a temporary home of Jesus the Christ. In Capernaum, Jesus commanded an evil spirit to come out of a man, and Jesus met a centurion who had great faith, and Jesus  forgave the sins of a paralyzed man and commanded the man to rise, and the man rose and walked. Tyre was the home of King Hiram, the ruler who sent workers and the timber necessary to build a palace for his friend King David, the 2nd king to reign over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. The people of Sidon (Zidon) supplied timber for David. Solomon was the 2nd son born to David and Bathsheba. Solomon was the 3rd king to reign over all of the Israelites. Rehoboam, the son born to Solomon and Naamah, was the 4th king to reign. After Rehoboam gave a specific answer, the Israelites split into 2 kingdoms, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of Solomon. Judah was the nation in the south, Jerusalem was the royal city and Rehoboam was the 1st king to reign. Israel was the northern nation, Samaria was the final royal city and Jeroboam was the 1st king to reign. The Assyrians invaded the northern nation of Israel and conquered Samaria, and the Babylonians (Chaldeans) invaded Judah and conquered Jerusalem, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. After Israelites began returning to Judah and Jerusalem and were preparing to rebuild the temple of the Lord that the Babylonians had looted and burned, the Sidonians and the people of Tyre supplied the Israelites with timber.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel 1:1-3:21, 8:1-31:13, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, Isaiah 23:1-18, Ezekiel 28:1-26, Joel 3:1-21, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
