Journalist Dave Dolan discussing controversy surrounding trees being planted in the Negev desert have led to protests which threaten to bring down the Israeli government .
As David mentioned in his report, there is a controversy surrounding who owns the land in Israel. Although the debate may continue in modern times , we know that God promised the land of Israel to the Jewish people in Deuteronomy chapter 30. This passage, also know as the Land Covenant, is actually only part of the land that the Bible calls for the Jewish nation. There are actually 83 passages in God's word that reveals what God has promised the Jewish people and its 10 times what they have today. The Jewish people have never completely occupied the borders promised to them by God but we know that they will in the future. God will keep His promise to the Jewish people.
