Also, Jerusalem's Chief Rabbinate, Monday, called for world wide prayer on behalf of Israel to begin on Tuesday. Psalms 83 was one of the texts given to pray. Do you agree with me that finding the old Psalms about the same time is God's confirmation for us to pray Psalms 83 & claim it?

Thanks Garnett.
Psalms 83: Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace & be not still, O God. For your enemies make a tumult. They that hate you have lifted up the head. They have taken crafty counsel against thy hidden ones. They said, "Come, let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more". For they have consulted together in agreement: they are confederate against you: The tabernacles of Edom, Ishmaels; Moab, Hagarenes; Gebal,Ammon & Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Asser also is joined with them... Selah. Do unto them as unto the Midians, Siseria, Jaben...that perishes & becomes like dung... Who said, "Let's take to ourselves God's house.".O God make them like a wheel; as stubble before the wind. As fire burns wood & flames set the mountains on fire; So Persecute them with thy tempist. Frighten them with thy storm. Fill their faces with shame; that they will seek thy name, O LORD...

Corun: When God delivered Israel from Egypt He Said, "Israel My firstborn..." To attack Israel is to attack their God also. Another coincidence is the location & peoples. Ishmael. Philistines/Palistine. Tyre. Also Iran & Seria want to destroy Israel along with Hesbollah, Hamas & Alquida etc...
Psalms 83:18 That people may know that you whose name alone is Yahweh (LORD) are the El Elyon (God most High) over all the earth.

It certainly is a miracle. There is no way that could be a coincidence. God has His ways of preserving things, because He wants all the skeptics to finally see the truth about Him. I believe that Psalm about Israel speaks to us all, especially now, with the turmoil in the Middle East. We should all "Look up, for your redemption draweth nigh".Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Surely the timing is a miracle of God, but perhaps not in the way you seem to be implying. Psalm 83 is a prayer to vanquish the enemies of Israel, but we are focused on the Israel we see, a country surrounded by enemies that have opposed their occupation of that land, ever since the country was established, post WW II.
The Chief Rabbinate calling for prayer on behalf of Israel at this time, using Psalm 83, is a plea to God to defeat Hezbollah. The country, Israel, wants to completely eliminate its enemy. But we do not know what is meant by Israel and its enemies. The twelve tribes of Israel as mentioned Biblically are scattered throughout the world, and this could include current Muslims, Christians, Jews, and others. God may not mean for us to pray for the country Israel so much as to learn what He means by His "enemies."
Perhaps more aligned with the heart of Christ, try praying Psalm 85:8 -13. Israel, Lebanon, and Syria all need prayer.

it is only confirmation about the war that's going on in Israel psalms 83 verse 4 Says They have said,Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. i don't think its a coincidence that the book surfaced during these terrible times that Israel is going through.

Wizardslizard, or whatever your name is, Psalms is not one of the "lost" books, it's Psalms. It's just a very, very old Psalms.
I don't know if it's a miracle, would have to look up those verses, which I will, but God can be subtle at times, so it's very possible.

Um, no.
That would be the hard work of who ever was digging
A miracle would be for every gun, weapon and or bomb in the world to cease working.
A miracle is a child surviving cancer because of the work of doctors and prayers of her parents
A miracle is that you live in a world with anti-biotics, clean water and electricty.
God isn't so dull as to have to use a dirty, rotting book to make a point when She has all those and the fact that the Sun came up today to work with.

No. Since Psalm 83 does not even cover half a page, other Psalms were of necessity exposed as well.

I am not sure what to think of "new" books of the bible suddenly popping up.... lately there have been a number of "lost" books of the bible being found. I lean towards the ideal that God placed the books that are in the bible now for a reason and not others.

Look hon, if you have to ask, then no, it's not.
Have you ever known God to be unclear? When Sodom was destroyed, they knew it and why. When He flooded the land, Noah and all the folks that died knew Who did it and why.
When it's God, it is perfectly crystal clear. You have put two unrelated things together with no visible connection.

I was God trying to get my message out there with a miracle or two, I'd go with something a bit more noteworthy.
