Did The Bible Foretell Of Pandemics?

[goodlife]

Are today pandemics punishment from God?

[archibaldy]

Got Gods fingerprints all over it really, misery, pain and suffering, I really don't know what you see in him Goodlife.

Cant recall the word pandemic.....

Ask Yourself, ‘What lessons regarding being prepared can I learn from the COVID-19 pandemic? (Proverbs 22:3)

[beso]

No.

[drmorgans]

But even the prudent have been "punished". In particular doctors, nurses and caregivers.

//What lessons regarding being prepared can I learn from the COVID-19 pandemic?//

I got my jabs and urge you to get yours, Goodlife. I hope that helps.

[vulcan42]

why are proverbs 22:3 and 27:12 the same? Did the compilers run out of idea's?

[lrodriquez30]

Good question. The Bible does not foretell specific pandemics or diseases, such as COVID-19, AIDS, or the Spanish flu. But it does foretell “pestilences” and “deadly plague.” (Luke 21:11; Revelation 6:8) These events are part of the sign of “the last days,” also referred to as “the conclusion of the system of things.”—2 Timothy 3:1; Matthew 24:3.

We had a few who had to teach us as a punishment
Butler ( Bishop that is! - wrote Verbum est Deum singlehandedly, Illtyd Trethowan, Rhymer) oh and dont forget Dean Phillips

So you say a shortened poetic form of Jehovah’s name.
Whenever you say alleluia! or “Hallelujah.” You can look up Hallelujah in a dictionary and see for yourself that it means ‘Praise Jah,’ or ‘Praise Jehovah.’

Seems to have been eclipsed by 'Allahu Akbar'.
