What do you think the Jews will do when
this happens in the middle of the Tribulation?
Of course, they will know that they have been
deceived by the Antichrist. So they will begin
to resist him. There will be a war but during it,
the Word of God implies that God will move in
a special way on the people of Israel and they
will turn to Him, the real God.
Then it tells us that they will be protected from
the Antichrist, who is now their enemy.
The Antichrist will broadcast his announce-
ment to the nations of the world. He will say
'I am God'. From now on they are to forget all
alternatives. They are to come and worship
him, and he will be the one who outpours
blessing and prosperity upon them and upon
their nations.
Just imagine! Finally there is a person at the
end of the age who says, 'I am God'. Through
his religion, people will be led to believe so
much in human capability, and the potential
there is in their lives, that they won't be very
surprised when one man makes the discovery
about himself, that he is God.

When the Antichrist first signs his covenant
with Israel, he will put an army in the north
area to protect it. He will also help Israel to
rebuild its temple, as a symbol of their relig-
ious focus point.
But when he breaks this covenant, his army
will march to Jerusalem and there he will
declare himself to be God.

Daniel says he breaks the covenant "in the
midst of the week" (Daniel 9:27). This puts
his betrayal half way through the Tribulation.
Breaking the covenant and becoming an enemy
of Israel. Paul says: ". . .that day shall not come,
except there come the falling away first, and that
man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who
opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is
called God, or that is worshiped, so that he, as
God, sitteth in the temple of God, showing him
self that he is God," 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

Earlier the Antichrist made a covenant with
the nation of Isreal declaring he was their
friend. They were going to protection one
another.
But now that he has a firm hold on the world, he
is rethinking this agreement. Possibly he has
gotten closer to the Arab nations and tempting
him to break this covenant with Israel.
