And taken way out of context…

I don’t believe it’s out of context. Micah imagines a future of peace.
The HarperCollins Study Bible says:
Vines and fig trees represent long-term stability, peace, and prosperity.
After the tumultuous events that occurred before Biden assumed office, I’d say the verse is very appropriate.
It is taken out of context. First Micah was a prophet. And the job of a prophet is to speak the message that God wants the people to hear. A person cannot recite the words of a prophet and twist them as they see fit.
Second, there were conditions for that peace.
1 In the last days
the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established
as the highest of the mountains;
it will be exalted above the hills,
and peoples will stream to it.
2 Many nations will come and say,“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the temple of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways,
so that we may walk in his paths.”
The law will go out from Zion,
the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
Do you see the Biden administration guiding the US on the “paths of the Lord”?
What, do you see them pulling out of the ME or something?

I guess space squids don’t believe that there’s a God.
The Biblical God never promises peace without conditions. And those conditions are always “obey him”.
That’s not to say she didn’t write a nice poem. But I take issue with misrepresenting the scripture.
And before anyone jumps to conclusion about me being a Trump supporter, I have issues with how the Bible was twisted for political agendas by those “christian” Trump supporters that caused such a ruckus in the Capitol.
Ephesians 6:12
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Hamlet Act 1, scene 5, 159–167
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio
Hamlet:
Swear by my sword
Never to speak of this that you have heard.
Ghost:
[Beneath] Swear by his sword.
Hamlet:
Well said, old mole, canst work i’ th’ earth so fast?
A worthy pioner! Once more remove, good friends.
Horatio:
O day and night, but this is wondrous strange!
Hamlet:
And therefore as a stranger give it welcome.
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
1 Thessalonians 5:2-3
@yyy sounds like an alien invasion 
More to the point, is the Biden administration going to reconstruct the temple in Jerusalem?

How do you get that from a comment about the new administration not-not more or less continuing the existing policy wrt the ME?
Not really. The bad hombres from my hood have invaded you more times than I have tentacles, and you probably didn’t even notice.
No. Impossible. Why? I don’t know, but I know it’s complicated. It’s possible that the US could play some part, somewhere sometime somehow, in the periphery of this epic event, but if/when it happens, it will be done by ‘the locals’. Here is an interesting read that should help.
Proverbs 15:22
“Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed”
Of course it’s impossible 
I was unclear about my point–if we’re really going to get literal about the passage, it’s talking about worship of Yahweh at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem in the proscribed fashion.
Passage… ? I didn’t refer to one, and I didn’t see scripture in your post asking about when the Biden’s were going to go and straighten out that whole temple thing. I must have missed it. Although, the first bits of John 1 give me chicken skin 
That’s the Mossad’s motto, I believe.
Psalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord watches over you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

I just realized that Job 4:1 to 32:1 reads oddly similar to some of the threads on this forum…
Thankfully, the book does not end there.
Ecclesiastes 1 sometimes too 
Haha yes 
Don’t get me wrong, I like this forum a lot. Some of the threads, though, oy…
