This is from GotQuestions. It's their interpretation.
Their interpretation is that this is not the end times… that I would agree with.
The bits of scripture are not an interpretation, it’s a reference.
They take various one liners (chapter and verse/s) and create an outcome from it. It's their interpretation.
The various one liners aren’t adding up to a singular narrative.
For starters, it doesn’t say anywhere in the Bible that “Jews will accept Jesus as savior”. Even in the scriptures they provide to suggest it…
So no, I don’t think adding up one liners can constitute a proper interpretation.

What Israel’s role in the “end of times” in Christianity depends on your eschatological views. Got Questions ministry is a conservative evangelical nondenominational (I read that as reformed Baptist) parachurch ministry. They have a premillennial dispensational view on eschatology, so that needs to be considered when reading their views on “the end times”.
More charismatic/pentecostal Christians, such as Sean Feucht, who believe the world is in “the end times” now or are always predicting “the end times.”

So very tired of people believing they are preparing for the "end times" and acting in irrational and irresponsible ways as a result.
None of us know if or when there will be an "end time" and many citizens of the planet do not subscribe to doomsday beliefs. Yet we are all impacted by the failure of many to care about the future of our ecosystem, the cruelty of wealth inequality and the rejection of scientific rational thinking.

"However, the Bible does say there will be terrible conflict in Israel during the end times"
I'm surprised they didn't reference Obadiah and Micah.
