Damascus in Old Testament prophecy

Have you been reading these threads, or just looking at the titles?
My basic theme, all the way through, is that these prophecies were normally fulfilled in the era when they were made. See especially my third post in this thread.

Very much of Ezekiel is yet to be fulfilled. He was a chronological prophet.

For the first thirty-six chapters, Ezekiel was the prophet of the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians and the immediate aftermath. He gets eschatological from ch37 onwards. The Old Testament prophets are eschatological when they say so- when they talk about the "last battle", and/or God's rule that follows.

sounds good for me....
eschatology is my bag-of-popcorn snack

Yes he and Jeremiah are both with the Jerusalem and in Ezekiels case passes over Bethel and the other later Capitals of the northern birthright Ephraim which haven't returned yet. Ezekiel is very descriptive about this. And in reference to some things you posted earlier, says that there will be no mistaking the hand of God in their return.
