Actually Israel was not “created” in 1948.
It was regathered into it’s national location on that date.
God had scattered His People into all the world after the 70AD destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD which Jesus specifically predicted.
But even scattered they remained “His People” or “His Nation”.
But they were scattered.
In 1948 they were regathered into their God given land just as He told them over and over and over again that He would do!
God bless you!
*Sigh*
I didn’t mean that there was no Israel prior to 1948. I was referring to the state that was created in 1948.
God bless you.
