"Gino, and a rider named Death"


Gino,
You posed the following question that there is a "fellow known as Death"
 
I Have been recently having a discussion with Raul, who posts here from time to time, and he raised a point on the identities of the King of the North, and the king of the south as found in Daniel 11:40.
 
You can find the conversation at the following link:

As I was doing a search on this passage, The phrase overflow and pass through struck me. Upon searching this further, these two words are used in conjunction with one another in Isaiah 28:15.
 
Daniel 11:40 KJV
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
 
Isaiah 28:15 KJV
15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
 
Please read the comments on Daniel 11:40 on the identity of the Kings, and the "He" in that verse, and I believe you will see who DEATH is.?
 
I am unsure where this is all heading yet, but I do believe this is the year for these events.....

Note I posted this on April 3rd. I did not make the connection to the verse in Isaiah 28 until today, the 7th.
 
Now let us look at the "Covenant with Many".....which if Many is an adjective instead of the assumed noun,  could be translated as "exceedingly much".
 
Daniel 9:27 KJV
And he shall confirm the covenant with many H7227 for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This is the covenant with Death.......The death of many....
 
Let's look at Isaiah 28 more:
 
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers,
    who rule this people in Jerusalem!
15 Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
    and with Sheol we have an agreement,
when the overwhelming whip passes through
    it will not come to us,
for we have made lies our refuge,
    and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
16 therefore thus says the Lord God,
“Behold, I am the one who has laid[c] as a foundation in Zion,
    a stone, a tested stone,
a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation:
    ‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’
17 And I will make justice the line,
    and righteousness the plumb line;
and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
    and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
18 Then your covenant with death will be annulled,
    and your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
when the overwhelming scourge passes through,
    you will be beaten down by it.
19 As often as it passes through it will take you;
    for morning by morning it will pass through,
    by day and by night;
and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
20 For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on,
    and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in.
21 For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim;
    as in the Valley of Gibeon he will be roused;
to do his deed—strange is his deed!
    and to work his work—alien is his work!
22 Now therefore do not scoff,
    lest your bonds be made strong;
for I have heard a decree of destruction
    from the Lord God of hosts against the whole land.
23 Give ear, and hear my voice;
    give attention, and hear my speech.
24 Does he who plows for sowing plow continually?
    Does he continually open and harrow his ground?
25 When he has leveled its surface,
    does he not scatter dill, sow cumin,
and put in wheat in rows
    and barley in its proper place,
    and emmer[d] as the border?
26 For he is rightly instructed;
    his God teaches him.
27 Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge,
    nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin,
but dill is beaten out with a stick,
    and cumin with a rod.
28 Does one crush grain for bread?
    No, he does not thresh it forever;[e]
when he drives his cart wheel over it
    with his horses, he does not crush it.
29 This also comes from the Lord of hosts;
    he is wonderful in counsel
    and excellent in wisdom.
 
Please pray for discernment and understanding on this. I believe that time is short. As I said I have no idea where the Spirit is leading me.
 
God bless.
