In my unending efforts to find wacky quotes from Rutherford, I bring you:

"It was this noise and shaking of persecution and agitation that caused the bones, to wit, the Jews, to come together and form the skeleton organization looking to their return to Palestine and to the rebuilding of their homeland. A human skeleton is made up of 206 bones. Zionism was organized into a body at Basel, Switzerland, in 1897: and in that congress there were exactly 206 delegates, the same number of bones that go to form the human body. That was not merely an accident but a physical fact prearranged by the Lord, showing how God looks after the minutest things relative to the recovery of the Jews in bringing them back to himself. This should arouse the hopes of Jews and bring them comfort." Comfort for the Jews, P 92.

File this under "Do me no favors:"

"The long dark period of Israel's warfare has ended. The favor of God is being extended to her;…"p127

This was said a decade before the beginning of the Holocaust. What a favor that was.

Here is one for those who claim that the WBTS never prophesied:

"Someone who loves the Lord must speak the message of comfort to the Jews. The time has come for the prophecy to have its fulfilment."p127

Who needs pyramids when you have this kind of insight?
