Read the text.
1. The Lord, not the King of Assyria, does the shaving.
2. The shaving text is quite ambiguous as to exactly what it means, but in context it appears to be related to the desolation of the land involving the King of Assyria with just what that involvement is being what is ambiguous. "That is hired in the parts beyond the river with the King of Assyria" The previous verse as well as verses following all deal with the desolation of the land of Assyria and the region in general.
3. Factoring in all the verses of the prophecy with the repetition of the phrase "in that day" applied to the growing in of "thorns and briers" et al, there's no way you can apply it to the short term there and then.
buz, this is pointless.
i asked a simple question of clarification. you said that the prophecies include the end times in response to a question about when some event happened. i don't care about the event, or the semantics, or whatever excuse you're using to dodge my simple little question. i'm not even trying to make some snarky point here. i was just verifying what you're saying.
has it happened yet? or will it happen in the end times? is it fulfilled, or does it still remain to be fulfilled.
