A diaspora refers to the dispersion or migration of a group of people from their original homeland to different parts of the world. This can occur due to various factors such as conflict, persecution, economic opportunities, or seeking better living conditions. Diasporas often retain a strong connection to their ancestral roots and may maintain cultural practices, language, and identities within their new communities.

What role will Petra play in the end times?

Edom (Petra/Bozrah) will serve as the hiding place of the Jews during the end times. When the Antichrist attempts to finish off the Jews at Edom, Jesus Christ returns to save them.What Petra actually means:The above explanation is complete horse trot and has no biblical support that I can find anywhere.Petra simply means rock in the Hebrew. Edom is Roosh or Russia, I can assure you with great accuracy that the the House of Israel will need to or seek refuge in Edom. Israel will seek refuge in our Father not some man.Petra means rock the Apostle Peter is Petra, he will most likely play a role in the end times during the defeat of the fake christ (antichrist) as defined in Revelation 19:14 although his name is not specifically given. Further I would expect him to play a role in the 1000 years of teaching which is defined in Revelation chapter 20.There is a rock of offense mentioned in 1Peter 2:8 with is from the Greek word petra. The rock defined in that verse relates to the fake or false christ, who appears very soon in the flesh. Confused Christians will stand upon that rock as if he is the true Christ, that is why its called the rock of offense. People will follow the first one who returns that can work miracles, there is just one problem, he is a fake. Just remember flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom of God. And remember Corinthians 15:53 we shall all be changed in a moment in the twinkling of an eye ... at the LAST trumpet.Get you a Strongs concordance and look up the word rock and find the Greek verses in the new testament where it is used as Petra (4073), You should find it in the following biblical texts:Matthew 5 times 7:24.25 - 16:18 - 27:51,60Mark 1 time 15:46Like 4 times 6:48 - 8:6,13Romans 1 time 9:331 Corinthians 2 times 10:41 Peter 1 time 2:8Revelation 2 times 6:15,16Additional_Comment_:In the physical sense, the Bible states specifically that 'Petra', or modern Bozrah, will be a place of refuge for fleeing jews. It was located in ancient Edom, but is now is part of the modern nation of Jordan."53. - Ancient Petra (Sela the rock city) in Jordan would exist and become the refuge for the fleeing Jews during the Tribulation (Isaiah 16:1-4; Matthew 24:16; Revelation 12:6, 14). In 1994, Jordan and Israel signed a peace treaty making Petra a potential refuge for fleeing Jews. "[From www.raptureforums.com/BibleProphecy/101lastdays.cfm ]However, in the spiritual sense, just as Jacob has spread throughout the world through the disapora of his descendants [the Jews], so likewise the descendants of Jacob's brother Esau [the Edomites] have also spread worldwide, and therefore cannot be limited to a single country.The preceding answer ['What Petra actually means '] is correct for Christians, but Jews are not the same as Christians. Prophetically at this time, since all Christians will either be dead or will have been Raptured, there will only be Jews and non-Jews in the whole world. Although individual jews have converted to Christianity, taken as a whole the nation of Israel has rejected Christ, and the purpose of the Tribulation is to cause the world to almost annihilate the jews and drive them to the wall of recognizing they have killed their Messiah the first around, but they will repent and plea for His return accept Him the second time to save them.Answer:As displayed above and across the Internet... an explanation of just WHAT "Petra" means in "end time" prophecy is a matter of great debate. With most people focusing their arguments as to WHERE this "place of safety" or "refuge" may by located in the world.But, the real "end time" question should be; not, WHEREis Petra, where people might hide in the last days... but, WHO is Petra, the ROCK of Refuge, in a nuclear-armed, heat-seeking, laser-guided world?The Bible reveals Him to be the Almighty Creator God of the Old Testament, who "made all things" [see John 1:3]. His name is Jesus Christ.And Moses sang of this ROCK, anciently:"Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth [is anybody listening?]."...Because I will publish the name of the Lord: ascribe ye Greatness unto our God. HE IS THE ROCK..." (Deut.32:1-4).David sang of Him continually:"...the Lord is upright: HE IS MY ROCK, and there is no unrighteousness in Him." (Ps.92:15)Regardless of the generation of men... Faithful men have sought refuge in Petra:"...the Lord is my defence; and MY GOD IS THE ROCK OF MY REFUGE." (Ps.94:22)And the crux of the issue is not "WHERE do people run to" and where do they hide when the so-called Satan-empowered, Satan-led "Antichrist" [see Rev.13:2] strikes? Because God's Word reveals that the end time ROCK of Refuge FOLLOWS His people wherever they may be!"...I would not have you be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the Cloud... and did all eat the same spiritual meat; and all did drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that Spiritual Rock THAT FOLLOWED THEM: and THAT ROCK WAS CHRIST." (I Cor.10:1-4)So, "what role will Petra play in the end times?"That ROCK is Jesus Christ... and He hasn't ceased being the Refuge of all whose Faith is in Him... whether they've temporarily escaped death only to die their appointed death later [Heb.9:27], or whether they became death's victims.Jesus Christ is their Refuge in any case.Speaking of the "time of the end" in the book of Revelation... the time of Great Tribulation [historically unprecedented global distress] Jesus forewarns His people about [Matt.24:21-22]; it is described in the "fifth seal" in Revelation 6."...when he broke open the fifth seal, I saw an altar, and underneath it all the souls of those who had been martyred for preaching the Word of God and for being Faithful in their witnessing [people who all sought their Refuge in Christ]. They called loudly to the Lord and said, 'O Sovereign Lord, Holy and True, how long will it be before you Judge the people of the earth for what they have done to us? When will you avenge our blood against those living on earth?' White robes were given to each of them, and they were told to rest a little longer until their other brothers, fellow servants of Jesus, HAD BEEN MARTYRED ON THE EARTH AND JOINED THEM." (Rev.6:9-11 LVBLiving Bible)Taking Refuge in the ROCK doesn't mean "not suffering the First Death." Millions of God's Faithful have suffered it throughout the history of the world. And that INCLUDES JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF -- who placed all His Faith in the Refuge of His Father.No one wants to suffer pain. It's something all sane people want to avoid. And Jesus Christ was no exception:"...O My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me: nevertheless NOT AS I WILL, BUT AS THOU WILT." (Matt.26:39)And it's "this cup" that the people of God must face at the time of the end. Not their own will... but to face it in the Refuge of their ROCK."...Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? ..." (Matt.20:22).There is no "physical place of refuge" in this world for God's people to travel to at the time of the end. The ROCK of their Refuge must be with them, always... following them wherever they may find themselves, in ceaseless Prayer and Faith.That's the "role" Petra will play in the end times. His role hasn't changed from "olden" times. The ROCK is still interceding on behalf of His people to His Father, regardless of where they might be standing on the earth.By all means... pray to be kept far from the evil in the world [John 17:15]. But also always pray for His Faith and Strength should the evil break through."God's laws are Perfect... they warn us away from harmand give success to those who obey them... May my spoken words and unspoken thoughts be pleasing even to you, O Lord MY ROCKand my Redeemer." (Ps.19:7-14 LVB)"...HE ALONE IS MY REFUGE, my place of Safety; HE IS MY GOD, and I am Trusting Him. For He rescues you from every trap... He will shield you with His wings! They will shelter you. His Faithful Promises are your armor. Now you don't need to be afraid of the dark any more, nor fear the dangers of the day... Though a thousand fall at my side, though ten thousand are dying all around me, the evil will not touch me."For JEHOVAH IS MY REFUGE! I choose THE GOD ABOVE ALL GODS TO SHELTER ME." (Ps.91:2-9 LVB)"For the Lord says, 'Because he Loves Me, I will rescue him; I will make him great because he Trusts in My Name. When he calls on Me I will answer; I will be with him in trouble, and rescue him and honor him. I will satisfy him with a full Life and give him My Salvation.'" (verses 14-16)Wherever people decide their "Petra" is... that's where they must place their Faith, that it might serve their needs in time of trouble. The Bible reveals Jesus Christ to be the "Petra"... ROCK of Refuge... of His people. And if people go to Him with their Trust... their Refuge follows them wherever they go from there.
