The Oracle: The Jubilean Mysteries Unveiled
New York Times and USA Today Best Seller!
Discover the amazing secret of the ages...and the mystery of your life!
The Oracle will reveal the mystery behind everything...the past, the present, current events, even what is yet to come! Open the seven doors of revelation—and prepare to be blown away!
Jonathan Cahn, author of the New York Times best sellers The Harbinger, The Mystery of the Shemitah, The Book of Mysteries, and The Paradigm, now unveils The Oracle, in which he opens up the Jubilean mysteries and a revelation so big that it lies behind everything from the rise and fall of nations and empires (even America), to the current events of our day, to the future, to end-time prophecy, and much more. Could an ancient prophecy and a mysterious ordinance given in a Middle Eastern desert over three thousand years ago be determining the events of our day? Could some of the most famous people of modern history and current events be secretly linked to this mystery-even a modern president of the United States? Could this ancient revelation pinpoint the events of our times down to the year, month, and day of their occurring? Could a mysterious phenomenon be manifesting on the world stage on an exact timetable determined from ancient times? Could these manifestations have altered-and now be altering-the course of world events? Jonathan Cahn takes the reader on a journey to find the man called the Oracle. One by one each of the Jubilean mysteries will be revealed through the giving of a vision. The Oracle will uncover the mysteries of The Stranger, The Lost City, The Man With the Measuring Line, The Land of Seven Wells, The Birds, The Number of the End, The Man in the Black Robe, The Prophet's Song, The Matrix of Years, The Day of the Lions, The Awakening of the Dragon, and much more.
The reader will discover the ancient scrolls that contain the appointed words that have determined the course of world history from the onset of modern times up to our day. The revelation is so big that it will involve and open up the mysteries of everything and everyone from Mark Twain to Moses, from King Nebuchadnezzar to Donald Trump, from the fall of empires to the rise of America, from a mystery hidden in a desert cave to another in an ancient scroll, from the palace of the Persian Empire to the US Senate, from the Summer of Love to the Code of Babylon, and much, much more.
Ultimately the Oracle will reveal the secret that lies behind end-time prophecy and the mystery of the end of the age.
As with The Harbinger and The Book of Mysteries, Cahn reveals the mysteries through a narrative. A traveler is given seven keys; each will open up one of seven doors. Behind each door lies a stream of mysteries. The reader will be taken on a journey of angels and prophetic revelations waiting to be discovered behind each of the seven doors-the ancient secrets that lie behind the world-changing events of modern times-and revelations of what is yet to come.
Hailed as a mind-blowing masterpiece, The Oracle will reveal mysteries that are absolutely real, amazing, stunning, mind-blowing, and life-changing.
Prepare to be blown away.

Jonathan Cahn writes yet another masterpiece! In The Oracle, Cahn reveals the Jubilean mysteries of ancient times. This book was written for the believer, the unbeliever, the skeptical, the agnostic, for everyone in general. As Cahn says “the mystery applies to the entire earth, to believer and unbeliever alike” (Chapter 13). The entire book reveals “the fingerprints of God” (Chapter 20) and how God’s hand has always been present in fulfilling His promises. It is ancient and modern at the same time. Eschatological in nature and timely needed to establish the craftiness of the hand of God from the beginning to the very end. The Oracle simply expresses the faithfulness of God towards His people.
Cahn explains in Chapter 6 - “In the year of Jubilee you get it all back. In the year of Jubilee that which was lost is restored. As it was written in the Jubilean ordinance: Each of you shall return to his possession and each of you shall return to his family.” The Jubilean mystery is an “ancient mystery that manifests on a global scale, on the stage of world history, moving through all events, obscure and overt, the lives of individuals, the courses of nations, a world war, the rise and fall of empires” (Chapter 23). Cahn masterfully reveals this ancient mystery by using narrative in a form of a conversation that immediately draws you in and continues to invite you until the end.
Cahn skillfully teaches us how the “Bible is filled with patterns and templates” (Chapter 22) and how “the word of God is such that on Scripture can hold several levels of meaning and application, and God can work and act in modern times according to biblical patterns and templates” (Chapter 21). This mystery, says Chan, began thousands of years ago and yet moving through the modern world, guiding all human events, directing the courses of nations and of world history itself to bring about its appointed purpose” (Chapter 1).
It only takes but a few chapters and Google search to take the most skeptical unbeliever to recognize these patterns and confirm that there is an undeniable blueprint left from God in the Bible. This blueprint not only involves the ancient Israel and its history, but the history of all humankind. If we want to learn what’s in the future for us as a race, we need to look to Israel and its history. Every major global event has proven to have its roots in the people of Israel and the promise from God that they will return to their land and get it all back. This book breaks it down for us in a simple yet profound way.
I absolutely recommend this book for everyone to become acquainted with the history of Israel in ancient times and modern times. Also, to witness how the puzzle pieces come together in this large book called the Bible. It will ignite your biblical knowledge and passion for the word of God. It will take you over modern history and show you how everything has unfolded perfectly and timely under our eyes without realizing it. If you like hunting, dig for treasures or even solve mysteries, this book is for you. In fact, this book is for everyone. It will blow your mind.

I didn't finish this book, but I'm finished with this book. (Tried to read for professional pastoral development, some parishioners were reading this book) The format of the book is repetitive, difficult to read, convoluted, and presents bible prophecies in a weird fictional narrative.
I watched an online interview of Jonathan Cahn and he's interesting. He's a Messianic Jewish pastor. However, his website and books raise theological red flags for me. His ministry focuses highly on eschatology. However, his teaching is very ethnocentric (American) and subjective. His 'ministry' focuses on deep secrets and teaching that unveils mysteries of God's Word, but I'm highly skeptical of this kind of language and focus. I do not trust his exegesis of scripture. Not to mention, there is little in The Oracle for application as a disciple of Jesus.

The Oracle – One of the most important books written in the last 100 years.
Revealed in these pages are the mind-blowing and stunning stories of the storytellers.
Written by Rabbi Jonathan Cahn – the foremost of prolific American Jewish Historians in modern times.
In this masterpiece - a stunning page-turner (I read it in 2 days – could not put it down and did not want it to end), explored is the deep history of the Jews and Israel from the moment of its original, bequeathed ownership of the sacred land through its Messianic history are precisely documented with detail that is mind-blowing and irrefutable.
These, then are the anointed and inspired revelations by THE ORACLE - the true and complete stories of and by the architects and revelators of world history… spoken in a contemporary voice in order to educate the current culture about how the hand of a Holy God is involved in every minute detail of every life and event throughout the history of the world.
And that includes you and me. We are not accidents on planet earth, at this time, in this place. Each one has an ordained and destined role to play! What an exciting time to be able to fulfill our ordained and inscribed destiny!
Those who wish to rewrite history – be forewarned!
While written as fiction for ease of reading through the use of the device of a Narrator –THE ORACLE - is so well documented that these revelations are irrefutable and undeniable. Each story as unveiled is based upon facts, dates, times, places and people that, to my knowledge, have never been shared in such a perfectly woven tapestry that ties all the pieces together so masterfully.
The Oracle is a multi-cultural historical novel that will remain as an imperative piece of work to refute those who are deniers of the Jewish right to the land of Israel, deniers of the Holocaust, deniers of Israel’s right to exist and be in control of its own destiny.
The Oracle should be a book at the forefront of historical novels- most especially for American, Jewish and Jewish American studies for future generations.

I'm not sure what to think of this book.
His material is interesting . . . but I weigh it with an open mind.
I hate the format--extremely confusing. Did this actually happen to him? Is this how he is choosing to share the interesting information he has?
I'd rather read the same information without the breath-taking hyperbole, laid out in a straight forward manner.
Still, it's a series of selected facts that can be read in an unusual and surprising way.

This book has had many positive reviews, however, for me the writing style was not my 'cup of tea' as it were, and I did not get very far.

What a clever way to give readers a wealth of information. Cahn has crafted a novel, so to speak, yet in such a way that it conveys facts about Israel's history, both ancient and recent. The Oracle interprets visions the unnamed narrator has. Each vision reveals new information about Scriptures and prophecies regarding the re-establishing of Israel as nation.
The precision with which prophecies were fulfilled is amazing. We readers must rely on Cahn's knowledge of Hebrew to reveal specific people, their names and their representation. We must also rely on his understanding of Hebrew dates and their significance. Cahn has included lots of footnotes so his work can be checked out. The amount of research he must have done to discover the specifics seems overwhelming.
A few corresponding dates, names and events could be described at coincidences. Cahn presents so many of these relationships the evidence demands we recognize God's hand in the re-establishment of Israel as a nation. The U.S. even had a part in the plan by recently recognizing Jerusalem as the capitol of Israel on the exact day, Cahn says, it was to happen.
Cahn's book includes a few relationships some readers might consider a bit forced. One example is joining together President Trump and Cyrus because Trump spoke an apocryphal saying attributed to Cyrus. Cahn does note that some Christian leaders told Trump he was representative of Cyrus well before he made his statement. (205) Another relationship Cahn relates was Cyrus' declaration after 70 years of captivity and that Trump was 70 years old when he made his declaration. (206) That seems a forced relationship to me.
Nonetheless, the number of relationships Cahn shares that I consider truly amazing are overwhelming. And Cahn does not leave us only in the past. He takes us into the future of the world according to prophecy. As the Oracle says, it is a double-edged sword. (257) Unlike his investigation of the past, Cahn provides no dates for future events.
I recommend this book to those interested in prophecies concerning Israel and their fulfillment. I think you'll be amazed. You will certainly have much to think about.
I received a complimentary egalley of this book from the publisher. My comments are an independent and honest review.

The content of this book, which describes the series of events restoring modern Israel in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, could have been delivered in a book 1/4 the length. The tiresome fictional wrapper of a dialogue is almost entirely skippable, obscures the content, and turns something that should be thoughtfully considered nonfiction into a laughably contrived work of fiction.

Remarkable Awesomeness!
I’m excited! The Oracle! Wow! It’s powerful message is contagious! I love to read books that amaze, don’t you?! I had previously read Jonathan Cahn’s impressive books The Harbinger and The Paradigm! What an honor to have had the opportunity to read an advance copy of The Oracle! I’m very grateful.
I so appreciate Jonathan Cahn for his work on The Oracle which is Over The Top Overwhelming! Brilliant! Interesting! Encouraging! Challenging and Hopeful! He is a Bold and Courageous Leader! His insight of ancient stories found in the Bible and how they relate to current events makes me excited to read my Bible more and expectant about the future. His work is not just his imagination. In my opinion, his research of the scriptures and math proves that God is real! He is Alive! God is a God of order and restoration!
In The Oracle, Jonathan Cahn’s knowledge about Jewish History, Israel, and Jerusalem inspires me to learn more about Jubilee. I was touched deeply by the astounding part that describes the events that lead to The United States Government’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel! Believe it or not, God is The God of Everything! This proves that God can use anyone to fulfill His purpose whether they know it or not!
I highly recommend this book as Jonathan Cahn challenges the reader to recognize and think about the world as it continues to decline..we need to be rescued! How and when will life get better?! What will happen next? What can I do? The Oracle directs our attention away from the troubles of the world to Encouragement, Hope and The True Answer!

Rabbi Jonathan Cahn has connected another string of astounding facts based on the bible, world history, world leaders and world events. As and Pro- Israel Christian Advocate and history lover, chapter after chapter took my breath away. The revelations have rested in plain sight for centuries, yet with the counsel of the Holy Spirit, Cahn has brought new understandings to life. I have read his previous books and The Oracle is sure to even surpass them.
It is almost impossible to choose the most profound sections, yet I want to mention several without spoiling your reading experience. The chapters about Israel’s “death in 70AD and its resurrection in 1948” are stunning. In another section about The Stranger, his skillful research connecting several key figures in 1867 Jerusalem are remarkable. The Oracle is full of opulent insights sure to enrich your faith in the Sovereignty of God. Read The Oracle and clasp these jewels around your heart. Your faith will deepen.

Very much like The Harbinger I was impressed by Jonathan Cahn's research. Amazing stuff.
The only reason I give 4 stars is his writing style is so annoyingly repetitive. It just felt like he was padding his page count with all of the endless dialog. It wasn't needed, and doesn't reinforce the impact of the actual material.

To much repetition
I was disappointed even though I enjoyed the subject it was no where close to “The Harbinger” which gave me goosebumps. This book was rather dull with a few surprises but otherwise nothing outstanding.

I pulled this book out of the library shelf by chance, read the blurb, thought it was interesting and took it home. I was expecting something intriguing and exciting, something like Dan Brown’s The DaVinci Code taking place in Israel… Oh boy, was I wrong…
I have to admit I had no idea who Jonathan Cahn was. If I had known his background, I probably wouldn’t have picked this book…
The book is about the Jewish exile, restoration and return to Israel, in a mix of fiction, History and scriptures citations.
The story is about a man who started having visions and went in search of another man (the Oracle) who would help him decipher them. He finds the Oracle in the desert and starts having “visions inside the visions”, where he would see himself in a hall with seven doors, and behind each door he would learn about prophecies made about Israel and the events that occurred in the jubilees.
Overall, the book was very repetitive. It was written in a predictable structure as well, where the main character always opened a door, described his vision, then met with the Oracle and then their dialogue went on, like in an interview. This goes on the same way for all the 7 doors.
I also think the author overdid making connections and attaching meaning to all sorts of events that happened either certain years before or after the facts. It sounded just like in those TV commercials that want to sell you a bunch of stuff you don’t need and keep saying in that enthusiastic tone: “You get all that for $19.99!… But wait! There’s more! You get two of each for the price of one!…But wait! There is more!”.
Throughout the book there were a few connections that made me cringe, but the worst was a connection was made between Cyrus The Great (the king of Persia), former President Harry Truman and Donald Trump (whose name literally means “World Ruler Trumpet”, therefore he must be the king and the trumpet mentioned in the prophecies…) implying they were, in a way, the same embodiment, Godsend, with the same role in restoring Israel in different times… And then, sure enough - I should have seen that coming - a few pages later came the mention to the prophecy being currently fulfilled with the world going back to what the Anti-Christ society that the Roman Empire used to be, where “children were killed in their mothers’ wombs” (abortion rights?), and “pagan views and practices concerning sexuality, gender and marriage (LGBTQIA rights? Women’s rights?)… Yeah, that’s what this book boiled down to…
Even realizing that I’m not the right audience and this book was not what I was looking for, I read it until the end with an open mind. I did not enjoy it, not because I don’t share the same political views and religious beliefs, but because I thought the fiction part was weak and the historical part could have been deeper and better described. The references to the dates and the scriptures citations were somewhat interesting, but the interpretations and the connections made between them were biased. And, I personally think that mixing fiction and facts in this level, subtly blurring political views and religion beliefs, particularly in the times we are in (this book was written in 2019), in America, is just unfortunate.

This is a much needed book recounting the faithfulness and sovereignty of God. God keeps His covenants to His people, despite their repetitive wandering from Him. This book is chocked full of historical and Biblical details. The author knows his history and traces God's faithfulness. The book ends with the greatest hope of all for a confused, lost and rebellious world. God's historical acts of grace and faithfulness are the framework of the novel. For any in the Church that are Replacement theologians, think and consider again the covenants and prophecies of the Scripture and analyze them in terms of history and the Biblical text itself. Jonathan Cahn challenges us to consider, without theological and cultural biases, the actual texts of Scriptures. The Abrahamic Covenant has the word "everlasting" in it. Detailed history from Israel, Babylon, Persia, Great Britain, Egypt, the United States, Ireland and other nations are cited in the book. In my rating, I gave the book four stars because I did not like the format of symbolic visions. I wish the book could be rewritten in a style omitting the visionary device, focusing on the historical facts as the compelling aspect. I suppose, however, the literary style the author chose likely expanded his potential readership and provided a catchy title. I,also, am not a fan of the words "Oracle" and "Mysteries" in the title. They sound too mystical and cultish. I would suggest -God's Jubilean Faithfulness- as a title. I would hope that Jonathan Cahn would someday extract the visionary literary mechanism of the book and include mainly the compelling historical facts and the Biblical Scriptures. Being involved in a regular inductive Bible study and also being a student of history, I previously knew about a fourth of the facts in the book. Obviously, I had much more to learn. I was astounded by how many precise fulfillments there are to God's Jubilean timetable. Usually, I don't complete a book in three days, my life being filled with other obligations and joyful priorities. However, like many others, I was drawn to continue listening to the book, completing it on audio in three days. Reading this book has strengthened my faith and hope even more. The God of the Scriptures is intricately involved, with precise timing, in His unfolding redemptive plan.

I have been really interested in religion and theology lately, and this book was like nothing I have ever read or thought about before.
The book centers around Israel: from the Old-Testament to its current re-establishment as an independent nation, the prophecies surrounding it, and the ancient Hebrew customs and traditions surrounding scripture and land.
The revelations Cahn revealed were fascinating and too specific and numerous to be coincidence. I not only looked at his footnotes, but I conducted my own google searches, and the most seemingly far-fetched revelations are actually true. The hand of God is apparent in so many things, even in our modern society. It was truly mind-blowing. I also learned a lot about Israel, a country I am embarrassed to admit I didn't know a whole lot about. I would be interested to read more about Israel and the Jewish people, as well as the prophecies surrounding them.
My biggest qualm wasn't with the content of the book, but with the way it was laid out. It is set up in the format of a novel, with an unnamed narrator speaking to another unnamed character about his interactions with the mysterious Oracle. I couldn't figure out who these people were supposed to be, and I would have found this book so much more interesting and easy to understand and digest had it simply been from Cahn's perspective relaying his findings. I felt as if he was trying too hard to make it a sensational novel, and as a result, it was disjointed and nonsensical. It was overly dialogue heavy, and I think it would have had more of an impact had it simply related to prophecy.
I also would have like more information on how the New Testament plays into this. Cahn is a Jew who believes Jesus is the Messiah, so I was curious to see how those aspects affected the prophecies he shares.
As much as I struggled to understand this book, my interest in Old Testament prophecy is absolutely peaked, and I may be reading more about it. I simply won't be reading anymore by Cahn, as his writing style was too much for me.

I loved The Harbinger. The others were "meh", but this one is EXCELLENT. It reminded me of how God can use ungodly people and terrible situations to work out His good plan. But mostly I love this book because of the following quote (p.280)
" The voice of God would say to you this.....
I have known you from the beginning from before you took your first step, before you breathed your first breath, before you were even conceived. I have seen all your tears and have known all your sorrows and wounds and pains, all your longings and hopes, all your fears, your dreams and heartbreak, your burdens and weariness, your times of asking Me why, your cries of loneliness and emptiness, your times of separation, your mourning for what was lost, your weaknesses and failings, your wanderings, your sins and shame, and I have still loved you with an everlasting love....
And now I call you to leave the darkness and all that is passed and all that I never willed or purpose for your life... that the days of your separation would come to an end. It is time now to return. It is time to come home... to enter the inheritance of blessing you never knew but were born to enter. It is time for your Jubilee.
Come to me and I will not turn you away but will receive you. And I will wipe away all your tears. I will forgive all your sins. I will heal all your wounds. And I will turn all your sorrows into joy. And you will forget your days of darkness and wandering, the days of your separation. And I will make all things new.
And I will bring you into a land where the crippled walk, where deserts bloom, where the blind see, where the defiled become pure and where that which was lost is found again. I will bring you to a place you have never known and yet have always longed to be, to your promised land. And I will never leave you. And you will never again know what it is to be lost. For in that day you will have come home. You will be mine and I will be yours.... forever."

To give this book 3 or 4 stars was the big question. I wanted to give it 3.5. :)
The information in this book was fascinating, but I hated Cahn’s style of writing. He tried far too hard to be sensational and to create a narrative. His effort at suspense quickly became repetitive and tiresome. I felt like I had to dig for the essence of the book. His use of the word “mystery” was greatly overused, and he didn’t present any “new” teaching (another term of which I am very wary), he just assembled the pieces of the puzzle. Cahn would have been much better off writing it as a complete non-fiction. (And could have done it in half the space, too.) It was confusing to follow and I also felt that the visions detracted from his point rather than enhancing it.
Having said all that, Cahn details how God’s hand has been in the restoration of Israel over the last 150 years and how that relates to each individual personally. It is always wonderful to see Scripture fulfilled in specific ways. I do not agree with all of his minute applications of Scripture - some points he made were a bit of a stretch (not fitting the full context of the passage, looking at numerology, etc) and he switched between the Hebrew and Gregorian calendar as it suited his point. However, you could not walk away from this book doubting that God’s hand has been in the restoration of Israel to their homeland. I appreciated that at the end he brought up the fact that it all ultimately goes back to the restoration of God’s relationship with man. However, I feel it would have been more powerful to start there than to tag it on at the end as another “mystery”. I also appreciated that he did not make any time-specific prophecies about the future, or even give a specific interpretation of the events in the book of Revelation. You can argue about prophecy yet to be fulfilled, but you can't argue with history.

I just can't stop thinking about this book and find myself talking about it to everyone. It was like a movie playing out on almost every page. I felt as if I had been transported to another dimension. Not only could I see everything, but I experienced it as well. I still keep looking at the television waiting for the movie trailer to play as a reminder that I was in a theater and not reading a book.
This book reached out with two hands and grabbed my heart. It felt as if it had literally pierced through my soul right into my spirit. It was a very supernatural experience that moved me to tears. I felt the presence of God in a very unique way while reading this book. I didn't want it to end and yet I wanted to find out how it ended all at the same time. It was exhilarating. I have been touched in a supernatural way that has blessed my life and left me forever changed.
If you want to have a “moment” with God that will change your life, then I highly recommend reading this book. It has an anointing on it that will transfer to you in a very special way just for you just as it did for me. So much so, that like me you will keep my copy on hand to read through. Yes, it has been already been highlighted and underlined during the first reading of the book. This book is so amazing, I did not want to forget one thing. I am positive that you will do the same, so get one ready as you read it. You will be Blessed in ways that you never expected.

I wish I could give this less than one star. reading this was an extraordinarily frustrating experience. If you are looking for anything resembling documentation of the research, prepare to be disappointed. There are almost no citations for anything. The few citations he does give are always on side issues, never the main point. He also seems to enjoy using his own translation of Bible verses when he is using a proof text.
The writing is extraordinarily poor. The dialogue, super repetitive. Written in first person, the narrative form is of the original ( unnamed) character being told of the experience of a second ( unnamed) character being lectured by a third character ( the titular Oracle).
The second character narrates a series of visions that he had which are then interpreted for him by the oracle. These fictitious visions are designed to evoke old testament prophetic visions and the New testament book of Revelation. The interpretations of these fictitious revisions by the Oracle are, according to the note at the beginning of the novel, all true.
The author's lack of citations, frequent use of the fallacies of equivocation and moving the goalposts, along with the not so subtle psychological manipulations of a first-person narrative and biblical prophetic visionary images result in this being nothing more than base propaganda. Unfortunately it seems to be very effective among its target audience.

Originally, I had planned to have finished reading the book by August 24th, but life happened, and I was delayed.
Just finished a few moments ago, and my eyes are still filled with tears.
Time for some honesty here, this was my first book of Rabbi Cahn's. When I received the invite to participate in the book release prior to publication, I was a bit surprised because I was wondering what was God up to in my life. He and I have been repairing our relationship in 2019.
Well, now I know that hidden, or not so hidden, within the pages or The Oracle, was a message I really needed to see as I continue to heal from a very dark time in my life.
Thanking Our Heavenly Father for having bought The Oracle in to my life.

Jonathan Cahn’s latest book, The Oracle, brings history and prophecy together in an easy read. If you ever wanted to know God’s plan for this world, or your life, you must read this book! The Oracle makes prophecy seem so easy to understand and its fulfillment so obvious, you will wonder how you didn’t see it before. When I was a child, I wished I had lived in the biblical times of the early church because the choice of how to live seemed so clear, but now I know I am living in the biblical times of prophecy leading up to Jesus’s return. And the choice is becoming quite clear…

Couldn’t do it, as hard as I tried, I couldn’t do it. I wanted to rip my own eyeballs out every time I opened this book. The dialogue was nothing short of awful. So awful it completely distracted from the points he was trying to convey. It would have been far better to just make it a nonfiction and state the “facts” versus this rambling blather.
October 27, 2019
The Oracle by Jonathan Cahn promised an interesting topic about religion, but again, the writing style flopped. I felt that reading as a hobby and for personal enlightenment has disappeared. I do not usually “give-up” on books, but already have reached two strikes.

From the back cover - ‘To know what the future holds, know what the past is hiding.”
”This book will open your eyes to groundbreaking mysteries that will impact not only how you understand the past, but also how you can be ready for the future.”
The Oracle, by Jonathan Cahn unveils and opens up the Jubilean Mysteries to reveal times and events that have and do lie behind everything from the rise and fall of nations and empires (America), to current events of our day, the future and onward to end-times prophecies.
In this book, Rabbi Cahn uses the Scriptures themselves to reveal ancient prophecies and ordinances spoken thousands of years ago and how they relate to our day and time. Who are the famous people and politicians linked to these events? Do these ancient prophecies pinpoint the manifestation events of our times? Could these manifestations have altered-and now be altering-the course of world events?
Rabbi Cahn takes the reader on a journey to find the Oracle. This Oracle begins to reveal and explain each of the Jubilean mysteries that have been given in a vision of the seeker. The Oracle uncovers the mysteries. The mysteries of The Stranger, The Lost City, The Man With the Measuring Line, The Land of Seven Wells, and so many more.
As the journey of ancient discovery opens, the Seeker goes on a journey to learn what his visions are about. We, the reader, have the privilege of “tagging along” on that journey as we are allowed to sit at the feet of the Oracle and learn the ancient secrets.
On this journey, you will learn about the ancient scrolls that contain the appointed language that has determined world history from the start of modern times. The Oracle ultimately reveals the secret lie behind end-time prophecy and the mystery of the end of the age.
This is a story that will grab you from page one and leave you wanting to know more and dig deeper. Prepare to be blown away.

Let me begin by saying that I received an advanced reader copy of The Oracle. I have read all of Jonathan Cahn’s books: The Harbinger, The Mystery of The Shemitah, The Book of Mysteries, and The Paradigm. All of these books are absolutely mind blowing and will lead you on a treasure hunt filled with gems and nuggets that are breathtaking!!! The Oracle is biblically based and filled with historical facts taken from The Bible to reveal the Jubilean mysteries of Israel throughout time and link them to our current day!!! The story is told through a narrator “The Oracle “ who reveals the mysteries of the past, present, and the future. The Oracle will take you on the journey of a lifetime with revelations so deep your heart will be overwhelmed with the glory of our God and His majesty!!! Here’s a beautiful excerpt from The Oracle that grabbed my heart “at the center of the mystery is redemption. Who is it that the Jubilee is for? It’s for the exiled, the separated, the broken, the fallen, the one who has lost. So to a world separated from God, a world of fallen lives and broken people, what is the Jubilee? It’s the ending of the separation. It’s the love of God reaching out to those in exile....to restore the broken, to raise up the fallen, to bring back the lost. What is that? It’s redemption, “ he said, “to be restored, brought back, healed, and saved.. It’s redemption. It’s the missing piece.” “ in Hebrew the word for salvation is yeshua. It’s from that word that comes the Hebrew name Yeshua, the real name of Jesus. If all loss begins in separation from God, then all redemption begins with the ending of that separation. That’s the meaning of Yeshua. It’s through Him that salvation comes. So it was foretold in the Hebrew prophecies that Messiah, through His death, would make atonement for our sins and cleanse us from iniquity. If you make an end of sin, then you end the separation.... then the exile is over.... then our exile is over.” I recommend The Oracle with all of my heart, you will be truly blessed!!!

I loved it. A fabulous, marvelous, beautiful book! A very exciting, excellent adventure into the past, present and future. Prepare to be thoroughly amazed, captivated, enthralled and blown away by this incredible book. Jonathan Cahn shines a light on the 'Book of Jubilees' mysteries, and presents a glorious tapestry woven through with rich beautiful colors of history, glittering golden threads of scriptural prophecies, real historical people and much more than amazing coincidences. Prophecies have been and still are mysteriously unfolding and even now affecting all our lives. You'll never think of Mark Twain or Samuel Clemens the same again, and many others. God is very powerful and so good and extremely alive! There is restoration, hope, joy and revelation. Blanks are filled in that have been left blank too long! Dots are connected and the bigger picture emerges. One feels lifted up to see the forest from the trees!
All of Mr. Cahn's books are informative, inspired reading, but this one may very well be his best yet. A fantastic journey into visions within mystical visions, with seven doors and seven keys, to seek truth from a mystic called The Oracle in a mountainous desert. Scripture comes alive.
The ending is so great and that's just the beginning! It may make you cry tears of joy.
Worth reading more than once. I plan on reading it again and have bought several copies to give away. It is that good! A must read! Get it, read it, and rejoice!

The Oracle by Jonathan Cahn is an absolutely amazing book! It is written as an allegorical story, but is totally based on Scriptural truth from both the Old and New Testaments.
This book will keep you on the edge of your seat in complete amazement at the magnificence of God! You’ll be referring to The Bible frequently to make sure that you are understanding what is being revealed. You will want to read it more than once for deeper meaning. You will be awestruck!
I received an advance copy of the book as part of being a member of the launch team. I cannot wait to get a hard copy of the book into my hands! It is powerful and exciting! The Oracle clearly shows how God is truly God of ALL time and timing.
Some of my favorite quotes from the final chapters of the book are, “The world changes, but The Word remains...”
“Nothing is an accident... If the veil wasn’t removed, you could miss it. And it would appear as if there was no purpose. But it was all there. Nothing is an accident, the world, history... life... it’s not random. It has a purpose, even when you can’t see it. It means something. It has meaning and purpose.”
This hit home with me and I feel blessed to have a deeper understanding of God’s Hand in the world (past, present, and future) and in the lives of those who are called according to His purposes.
The Oracle is truly fascinating! I highly recommended it!

- [ ] This is the most amazing book I have ever read. Once I started reading, I could not put it down. Rabbi Cahn has an incite into the Word of God that few people have, studying and searching out every word in the Bible. The book is filled with prophecies of old that show at God’s appointed time His will is done. You will be amazed how a man named Mark Twain, a skeptic, was used to fulfill a prophecy given by Moses in the book of Deuteronomy. And how God used President Truman at the appointed time to declare the birth of Israel during the year of Jubilee. How the six day war was fought and won at the time appointed by God. This book is filled with many more mysteries that will blow you away. God makes no mistakes and is an on time God. I hope you will read and enjoy this book as much as I did. It will put a spark in your soul to study the Word of God and find many other nuggets of gold for yourself.

I can only do a poor job of summarizing this amazing book. The author leads you step by step through Jewish history and the amazing fulfillment of many prophecies in the Bible. For example, humanly speaking Israel should never have become a nation but God had other plans. For two thousand years He was orchestrating world events that would eventually result in the return of the Jews to their ancestoral homeland. I am somewhat familiar with Israeli history but some of the details flabbergasted me. Many of the details that led up to the creation of Israel were unknown to me and could only have orchestrated by Divine Mastermind. It was incredible to say the least. Ultimately, what happens to the Nation of Israel is an example for every individual. God wants us to return to Him so He can give us Redemption through Yeshua and a return to Paradise. Heaven is our Homeland and He wants to spend Eternity with us.

If you love end-times prophecy & seeing how Jehovah God is working in current events, this is a must read! As I finished the book, I was bawling my eyes out in tears! I won't reveal much so as not to be a spoiler, but.....
What kept running through my mind the whole time my mouth was hanging open in awe as I read, was that if the God of the Universe would go to such extents to bring so many events together with such perfect timing & detail, how much more He will also do the same for me, His beloved child! His Word says that He knew me when I was in my Mama's womb & that all my days were ordained before I was even born. His plan for me is for good and His plans are never thwarted. I can rest & not fear, knowing He will bring about to perfect completion everything He has ordained & planned for me, His child by my faith in His Son!

Rabbi Jonathan Cahn once again proves himself as a master storyteller with “The Oracle.” You are taken on an adventurous journey through time that ties biblical records with historical and current events. The intertwined events are told in such a way that it keeps the reader engaged and wanting more. This is one book that you will read without wanting to put it down. I refrain from saying anything more in regards to the content to encourage you to read this book for yourself to enjoy the journey of discoveries that Jonathan Cahn has prepared for you in “The Oracle.”
