With this single event as one of the final judgements on mankind towards the end of the 7 year Great Tribulation, it's easy to understand where we are on the timeline for "the time of the end" and "the last days." Even two decades ago, it would have been seen as an unimaginable and totally unrealistic occurance. Through 2600 years of Bible prophecies, noone could ever have imagined this mighty river being dried up. In Biblical times it served as a natural barrier to protect Israel from invading armies out of the East due to its depth, width, and difficulty to cross. The Euphrates River flows some 2000 miles through the Middle East and is mentioned 5 times in the Bible as the "great river" all the way back to the creation of man and woman by God in the Garden of Eden. This clears the way for the armies of the east with 200 million troups(Revelation 9:16) to cross by land into the Valley of Meggido for the "end of man kind," "the war to end all wars" otherwise known as "Armageddon." The Euphrates River drying up is HUGE in it's significance to the end time prophecies as one of the "bowl judgments" that takes places near the end of the Great Tribulation.(Revelation 16:12). info under CC BY 3.Rapture-Gog-Magog-Tribulation-Antichrist-Jesus Some scripture references/categories courtesy of Open Bible.
