Trump, Gaza and Nephilim: Biblical History Coming to Life
In a surprising turn of events, President Donald Trump recently met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and announced that the U.S. would take control of Gaza and rebuild the area. While this sounds like a bold political move, there’s a deeper, more spiritual side to this story—one that ties back to ancient biblical history and the legend of the Nephilim.
If you’re not familiar, the Nephilim are these mysterious, giant beings mentioned in the Bible, and Charisma media sat down experts like L.A. Marzulli, Rabbi Jason Sobel and Mondo Gonzales who explained Gaza isn’t just another battleground—it’s a spiritual hotspot.

Marzulli explains, “Joshua and Caleb go in and they destroy all the Nephilim tribes except in Gaza. The territorial spirit has never been deposed in that area.” In other words, while much of the ancient world was cleansed of these beings, Gaza stayed under the influence of what he calls a “demonic Nephilim spirit.”
This helps explain why forces have been at war with Israel since the nation’s reestablishment in 1948.
Rabbi Sobel backs this up, pointing to Joshua 11:21-22 (MEV): “At that time Joshua came and wiped out the Anakites from the hill country: from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua utterly destroyed them and their cities. No Anakites were left in the land of the children of Israel, but they did remain in Gaza, Gath, and Ashdod.” These cities were Philistine strongholds, and they’re still tied to the Nephilim today.
Mondo Gonzales of Prophecy Watchers dives even deeper, describing the Nephilim as “half human, half demonic,” with supernatural strength and size. “This [Gaza] was a stronghold—the territorial spirit that was there was never conquered, was never fully removed,” he says. So any modern attempt to control or rebuild Gaza isn’t just about politics or diplomacy—it is against ancient demonic forces that have been in control of the land for thousands of years.
This makes Trump’s declaration even more intriguing. If Gaza is still under the influence of these ancient spirits, what could happen when modern nations step in to “rebuild” it? Are we just talking about construction projects, or could this be the spark that lights up biblical prophecies?
Marzulli takes it even further, suggesting that “the demonic entities today, at least in the Enochian understanding, are the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim.” So, engaging in Gaza might not just be about peacekeeping—it could mean facing off against these spirits that have held control over the land for millennia.
With all this in mind, Trump’s promise to rebuild Gaza isn’t just a headline—it’s a move that could have far-reaching spiritual consequences. As we watch these developments unfold, the words of Marzulli, Sobel and Gonzales remind us that Gaza’s history isn’t just in the past but extends into end-times biblical prophecy.
