The Two Treaties; Or, Hope for Jerusalem

An address delivered by the Reverend Hoare, a Vicar and Honorable Canon, likely penned in the late 19th century. This book reflects on the treaties established following a pivotal period of conflict in Europe and discusses their implications, particularly from a religious and prophetic standpoint. It primarily addresses topics related to the geopolitical shifts concerning the Ottoman Empire and the anticipated return of the Jewish people to Jerusalem. In this address, Hoare examines the significant changes resulting from the treaties, which signify the decline of Ottoman influence and the potential for a renewed governance in the region, particularly in Palestine. He draws parallels between these political developments and biblical prophecies, expressing hope that the emergence of a stable administration in the area may pave the way for the Jewish people's return to their ancestral homeland. Hoare emphasizes that the political and social reform in Jerusalem is not just a local affair but tied to broader divine narratives and the expectation of Christ's second coming. His message is one of optimism, intertwining faith with contemporary events and a calling for vigilance among believers regarding the prophetic signs of the times.
