"Tim LaHaye & Jerry Jenkins - Left Behind Series 5 - Apollyon" - читать интересную книгу автора (LaHaye Tim)Force could slip into the country unnoticed, Tsion informed his audienceтАвand also,
of course, Carpathia & Co.тАвof their itinerary. Ken had landed at the tiny Jerusalem Airport north of the city, and well-wishers immediately besieged the plane. A small cadre of Global Community armed guards, apparently Carpathia's idea of protection for Tsion, would have had to open fire to get near him. The international witnesses cheered and sang and reached out to touch Tsion as the Tribulation Force made its way to a van. The Israeli driver carefully picked his way through the crowd and south down the main drag toward the Holy City and the King David Hotel. There they had discovered that Supreme Commander Leon Fortunato had summarily bounced their reservations and several others' by supremely commandeering the top floor for Nicolae Carpathia and his people. тАЬI assume you have made provisions for our alternative,тАЭ Tsion told the desk clerk after half an hour in line. тАЬI apologize,тАЭ the young man said, slipping Tsion an envelope. The rabbi glanced at Buck and pulled him away from the crowd, where they opened the note. Buck looked back at Ken, who nodded to assure him he had the fragile Chloe in tow. The note was in Hebrew. тАЬIt is from Chaim,тАЭ Tsion said. тАЬHe writes, 'Forgive my trusted friend Nicolae for this shameful insensitivity. I have room for you and your colleagues and insist you stay with me. Page Jacov, and you will be taken care of.' тАЭ Jacov was Chaim Rosenzweig's driver and valet. He loaded their stuff into a Mercedes van and soon had the Tribulation Force installed in guest rooms at Chaim's walled and gated estate within walking distance of the Old City. Buck tried to get Chloe to stay and rest while he and Ken and Tsion went to the stadium. тАЬI didn't come here to be on the sidelines,тАЭ she said. тАЬI know you're concerned about At Kollek Stadium, Buck had been as stunned as the others at what had been arranged. Tsion was right. It had to have been God who used the rabbi's cyber pleas to pull together Israeli witnesses to handle the logistics of this most unlikely conference. In spite of and in the midst of global chaos, ad hoc committees had arranged transportation, lodging, food, sound, interpretation, and programming. Buck could tell about. тАЬDr. Ben-Judah,тАЭ he had been told, тАЬis being prepared to inspire and inform us when you are due at the microphone.тАЭ Tsion smiled sadly. тАЬThat and praying that we all remain under the care of our heavenly Father.тАЭ тАЬThey're onto you, Rayford,тАЭ Mac said over pita bread and sauce. Rayford shook his head. тАЬI haven't been a mystery to Carpathia for months. What are you talking about?тАЭ тАЬYou've been assigned to me.тАЭ тАЬI'm listening.тАЭ тАЬI don't rate direct contact with the big man anymore. But last night I was called to a meeting with Leon. The good news is they're not onto me.тАЭ тАЬThat is good. But they know about the device on the plane?тАЭ тАЬHe didn't say, but he couldn't have been clearer that you're history. If the device still worksтАвтАЭ тАЬIt does.тАЭ тАЬтАвthen I'll use it and keep you posted.тАЭ |
