The “Worldwide Web” Prophesied?

Isaiah 25:7, The surface of the covering. This is a cryptic passage. What does it mean? Other translations render it as follows:

And on this mountain He will swallow up the covering which is over all peoples, even the veil which is stretched over all nations. (NAS)

On this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations. (NIV)

And swallowed up hath He in this mountain The face of the wrapping that is wrapped over all the peoples, And of the covering that is spread over all the nations. (YLT)

Before YHVH establishes his millennial kingdom on earth, he will have to remove something evil that has been covering the earth and its people like a veil. Is this referring to the web of lies that Satan and his Luciferian stooges on earth have woven to control the minds of earth’s inhabitants, so that they could accomplish their nefarious schemes to enslave the human population spiritually, economically and politically? Or could it refer to an electromagnetic web put in place by the global power elite or something similar that covers the earth to enslave the human population for its evil purposes of power and control? Maybe it’s both. Whatever it is, Yeshua will destroy it at his second coming.

The context of this passage is millennial. Chapter 24 prophesies of Elohim’s impending judgment on the whole earth followed by his reigning from Mount Zion in Jerusalem (v. 23). Chapter 25 continues the same prophecy. In verse nine, we read that, “We have waited for him, and he will save us…We will be glad and rejoice in his salvation [Heb. Yeshua].” This is speaking of the second coming of Yeshua and the establishment of his millennial kingdom on earth after having destroyed the end times Babylon the Great New World Order.

So what is this veil or web that will cover the earth like a veil in the end times just before the second coming of the Messiah that the Spirit of Elohim revealed to Isaiah the prophet? Well, we’re all familiar with the term, “the worldwide web.” In and of itself, this is not evil. It can be used for both good and bad purposes. The worldwide web or internet has been hugely instrumental in helping to spread the gospel and awaken lost and scattered Israel to return to its biblical roots and heritage. However, do you think that this pleases Satan and his minions who hate Elohim and his word, and don’t want to allow their developed technology to be used to counter the spirit of antichrist?

Don’t be surprised if controls aren’t put in place to greatly restrict or even curtail the use of the internet as a vehicle to spread the gospel. In the mean time, as the saying goes, “Make hay while the sun shines!”

But there’s more. In the book of Revelation we read about an end time Satanic world governing and economic system that will control the entire earth including all nations and most people. Satan the devil empowers this system (Rev 13:2), and many people will be so in awe of it that they will literally worship Satan and his antichrist new world order system (Rev 13:3–4). 

During this time, for three-and-one-half years, Satan and his human minions will wage war against the saints and will even overcome some of them (Rev 13:5–7). This will be a time of both great persecution and spiritual refinement for the saints of Elohim. Only those who patiently persevere will come through victoriously (Rev 13:10). This patient perseverance involves loving Yeshua and keeping his Torah-commandments (Rev 14:12). Satan will persecute those who don’t love Yeshua by keeping his Torah-commandments (Rev 12:17 cp. John 14:12; 1 John 2:3–6). 

An aspect of this persecution relates to “the image of the beast” by which “he deceives those who dwell on the earth” (Rev 13:14). At the same time, a false religious system that resembles a lamb, but which is a demonically inspired wolf in sheep’s clothing (Rev 13:11–12), will arise and join forces with the political and economic system that’s led by Satan and his minions as previously discussed. 

Through the combined efforts of the political, economic and religious systems several things will happen. False signs and wonders will occur that will be visible to all men (Rev 13:13). This will lead to the deception of earth’s inhabitants (Rev 13:14), and the image of the beast will be humanesque in appearance causing awe and wonderment among those who are deceived resulting in men worshipping it (Rev 13:14–15; 16:2). This demonic antichrist economic-political-religious system that controls the earth will force men to worship this image and receive this system’s mark or seal of approval and membership on their bodies, thus allowing them to participate (and survive) economically in it (Rev 13:16–17 cp. 19:20). This seal or mark will likely involve men being required to take an oath of allegiance such that they will have to deny the true Yeshua of the Bible in favor of the false antichrist messiah. James seems to be warning against this when he writes, “But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your ‘Yes,’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No,’ lest you fall into judgment.” (Jas 5:12). This is why those who take the Antichrist’s mark will never have a chance at eternal life in Elohim’s kingdom, but are destined for the lake of fire (Rev 14:11 cp. 20:1–15).

In light of the prophecies of the Bible discussed above, and in light of the recent advances in modern science, it seems likely that modern biometric, instant digital communication and artificial intelligence combined with robotic nanotechnology involving the internet of all things (or IOT) will all come together to form a global oligarchic technocratic net or veil over this earth that will politically, economically and spiritually attempt to control all life to the exclusion of the true saints of YHVH-Yeshua the Messiah. 

This is coming upon us like a freight train, and it seems that thousands of years ago, YHVH may have revealed this to Isaiah the prophet. 

Sadly, however, most people, including the Torah-obedient disciple of Yeshua, are too sound asleep in their spiritual complacency eating, drinking, giving in marriage and pursing their middle class lifestyles to give any of this much thought. They are modern day obscurantists. The Bible calls them Laodiceans. They don’t have time to study their Bibles, to fast or to pray, but they sure have time to plan their vacations, play their video games, talk to their “friends” on social media and watch NetFlix! As long as they’re smugly wearing their Christian, Messianic or Hebrew Roots label for all to see, they feel they’ve done their duty. Yeshua called them white-washed sepulchres and empty cups! He said, “You draw near with your lips, but your hearts are far from me.” Peter called them clouds without water! John refers to them as naked, blind, poor and miserable.

Of course, none of this applies to anyone reading this. It’s always the other guy. Right?!?

  1. Great post! Puts a lot on the table for people to realise. This is important for understanding with the times we’re living in now with isolation where many are on the www to entertain themselves. Going to share this everywhere I can with prayer that eyes will be opened. Thanks for your time in publishing your post

  2. Natan,

    You may be right in your interpretation, but I have always thought that the “veil” or covering that is referred to in these prophecies, relates to the “veil” or curtain between the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place in the tabernacle.

    To think of it another way, it is the “barrier” between the priest (visible Man) and the presence of God (invisible).

    So, God removing the “veil” means that we will “see” God as he truly is, not as the “invisible” God , that He presently is, before Yeshua’s 2nd Coming!

    • You may be right. Whatever this veil is, Elohim will destroy it. Is it something that the “terrible nations” (satanic?) (v. 3) and “the terrible ones” (vv. 4,5 ) have spread over the earth to veil or hide the Truth of Elohim from people? “The veil that is spread over all nations” seems to me to be more than just the paroket veil that separated the kadash place from the kadosh ha-kadoshim in the tabernacle, but then who knows for sure. Appreciate your thoughts. I ask the questions, but I don’t always have the answers. It’s great to discuss these things.

      Another Scripture that comes to mind is the image of the beast passage in Rev 13:15 that seems to have influence over the whole world. In John’s day, this would have seemed impossible, but in our day of instant telecommunications through smart phone and the internet, the idea of “global brain” isn’t at all untenable, but a reality to one degree or another.

      In this passage, I can’t help but see the mountain (vv. 6, 7) as referring to the millennial mountain of King Yeshua/YHVH—the seat of his global governance (Jerusalem). His govt will occur after he destroys Babylon the Great at his second coming. This prophecy is against the larger contextual backdrop of chapter 24 which speaks of judgment upon the whole earth and ends with v. 23 which is clearly a millennial prophecy. Chapter 25 is a continuation of this prophecy.

      The veil in the temple as ripped in two at Yeshua’s death, while this prophecy seems to be speaking of events that will occur in the end times. What say you?

      Blessings.

      • In my opinion, there is no contradiction between the two being separate events as you noted! (Yeshua’s death vs. end times).

        The veil “being ripped (torn)” at Yeshua’s death means removal of the barrier between God and Man, in that we now have direct access to God through worshiping Yeshua.

        The barrier removed (“ripped” or “torn”) at end times is when “every eye shall see him” at His 2nd Coming (therefore, He will no longer be “invisible” to Man)

        Did I get at your point ?

      • Another way if viewing the “veil” as a barrier between the invisible (to come) and visible (now is) which God removes (Isaiah 25:7) is that the Old Creation (visible) passes away, and the New Creation (as yet invisible) comes to pass!!

      • Just had a flash of thought and remembered your post on this.

        To further the “word picture” of the veil representing “hidden” or “invisible” but real just the same, I was reminded of 2 Corinthians 4:3 – “Even if our gospel is VEILED, it is VEILED to those that are perishing” “Veiled” clearly alludes to “hidden” in this passage.

        So, to me, it is further evidence that when God removes the “veil” over the whole Earth (Isaiah 25:7), He will make the invisible (spiritual world) visible to all on Earth (the material world)
